Like, the fundamental thing with "AI" - it all starts with a massive and ongoing act of theft (or infringement, if you like). It's a few billionaire, or trillionaire, owned tech companies stealing everything we ever did then selling it back as a worse version of the work we all do.

Just checking the changelist for Maya 2027... man, the cupboard is BARE! Another year, another ADSK license manager still tied to x11. Don't worry though, the "development team is aware". We pay thousands in subscriptions for this?

Our Kickstarter campaign made it in by a nose! Amazing support from the community, our Discord in particular. This project has so much going for it, I am so hyped to be working with this crew. The day we release v1.0 will be amazing :) www.kickstarter.com/projects/moo...

hi, I worked in indie games for 10 years and sorry, they're also burning down. you just don't hear about it because it doesn't make the news when a studio of 19 lays off 7, even when it's 200 small studios doing that

Look animation is the bane of modern financialization. Its slow, expensive, and requires specialized knowledge. Its also always popular. They can’t help but try to destroy it along the way. But it never dies.

Proper joint placement and orientation is essential to good rigging. My joint guide system uses poly planes to help streamline this process, a relatively simple feature. These pieces of geometry are attached to each joint, stretch with their length and can be scaled up independently #rigtip

Watched this Suno AI techbro interview. Head like a hole. I feel like we need to frame AI art (Visual arts, film, writing, music) in economic terms. AI is to art what printing money is to the economy. It just devalues everything to the point of nothing. The cultural Zimbabwean dollar.
