The fucking head of fucking XBox Graphics used a fucking "AI" slop image to hire new engineers but couldn't tell that the fucking screen on the fucking monitor is facing backwards.
Linked In post from Mike Matsel, Principle Development Lead, XBox Graphics: 

"The XBox Graphics team is hiring folks with experience with device drivers, GPU performance, or related validation or engineering system experience. If the positions are closed and you want to apply, please message me!"

And below it is an "AI" slop that reads in white on green "XBOX GRAPHICS IS HIRING" and an image of a woman in a green sweater wearing earpods typing on a computer, except the "AI" has put the screen on the back of the monitor.

one thing I miss from teaching 3d modeling is the little diagrams I used to make explaining basic concepts. Loads of students would walk up to the board to take pictures even after I said I'd provide a PDF file with the same stuff. #3d

I feel like one of my main skills in 3D modeling is being good at selecting stuff. Like a specific set of vertices or a certain pattern of edges

Whenever I draw faces I try and draw or at least visualize an underlying structure. It's what makes drawing faces from imagination easier. Its built from basic primitives which are represented in the perspective I need #drawing #sketch

I was just reminded of this video. Not sure people now have any idea of the impact that this video, its art direction, the acting, the voice acting, had when it came out. It was just a completely different level of style and art direction www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHgZ...

This next year I will personally meet one of my all-time idols and reference. I'll sadly never get to meet Paul Steed but I can still give @superactionfunboy.bsky.social name to the organizer, who I'm friends with. Should I? Im sure they'd love to have you!

Still flirting with the idea of a Cyberpunk Knight Rider tv show. If not for anything, its been fun trying to learn automotive rendering and painting reflections
