Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Hello! Thanks for reporting, if you did have a moment to make an issue here: github.com/oxidecompute... then I can try to figure it out. And we are still using webgl for now, webGPU wasn’t any more performant in my tests. 000
Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 24/08/2026Some artwork prep for upcoming event. I've always had the habit of choosing colours that cannot be mistaken for the final artwork to avoid print mistakes. 071

Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 26/05/2026Also not that I sanction it but in theory I think Blender should be able to … if you have the latest version of the glb importer I think. 020
Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 26/05/2026I’ll defer to @kev507.bsky.social … we are currently working on open sourcing the explorer but the models are still a question mark 130
Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 26/05/2026IIRC that was some combination of ad hoc GitHub programs 000

Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Thank you, I’ll investigate! No idea if this is Android specific or something else. I see it already knocked the scene down to the lower tier materials. 000
Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Oof! Don’t suppose you have any other mobile browsers? Does it happen in those 100

Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 11/05/2026Web 3d explorer for @oxide.computer. Built in three.js/r3f. Tonnes of little interactions and details in this. Poke around, and take a look at the guided tours. explorer.oxide.computer 515423
Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 29/04/2026Well I guess it is CAD! Though I can’t take credit, I merely slapped their wonderful mechanical engineering on there. 030
Ben Leonard @benleonard.bsky.social · 29/04/2026Have I accidentally upset Big RAL? The only thing I’ve found the book useful for is to verify the vividness of the Rabbit R1 140
