Both the node graph and the 3D renderer now only re-render when something changes. Meaning sitting idle, polyform contributes practially nothing to CPU usage.

Made it so a node can either act on its input, or on an array of its inputs. This automatically made all existing nodes so much more powerful, and allows me to get rid of a ton of now redundant nodes.

When you go to the polls and vote for a Republican, you are voting for an escalation of preventable deaths, continued erosion of food safety, and anti-science disinformation. Not a single Republican has done a goddamned thing about the destruction being wrought by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Newsom: "Look what happened in Vietnam. They got slapped with a 46% tariff. Until they didn't. Because Eric Trump visited Vietnam in the middle of negotiations. Met with the prime minister, who had a press conference with Eric Trump announcing they had just approved a new golf course in record time"

Overblown or not, the AI industry isn't even trying to make an affirmative case for them. Gas turbines, constant noise, high water demands--oh, okay, is this for an emergency hospital after a disaster? No? It's just so rich people who will never even visit here can become even richer? Then no.

I don't think it should be controversial to say, "we will not provide financial or military assistance to a country where the Minister of National Security brags about popping people's dreams of 'food' and 'education' then sending them to a prison where they are starved."

Trump launched the Iran war with a grandiose video talking about regime change and destroying Iran’s capabilities. Six months later, he’s proven to be so weak that the US can’t even keep the Strait of Hormuz open. An absolutely resounding defeat.

All these tech companies were happy to pledge to reduce carbon emissions when it required literally nothing of them. The moment it was in their interest to vastly increase emissions, they bailed on their commitments.

Trump continues to create a propaganda machine for his MAGA agenda. This move by the FCC weakens longstanding ownership protections for broadcast media, making it easier for him to control what Americans see, hear, and read. This is straight out of a dictator's playbook.

this story should be national news during pride month and instead barely anyone knows about it
A lawsuit challenging Idaho’s transgender bathroom ban in K-12 public schools could end soon, after a group at Boise High School suing over the law dropped the case.

The move came after a transgender student who was part of Boise High School’s Sexuality and Gender Alliance died by suicide, and another stopped attending the school, the group’s lawyers wrote in a legal agreement reached Wednesday requesting the case be dismissed.
