MegaZeux @megazeux.bsky.social · 9hNEW: [Company 51% owned by Grok CSAM defender Tim's Weeney] has delayed its upcoming [multi-billion dollar brand slop] as it pivots to complete [slop] development. "[Pay us to eat up the slop, little piggies]," a director told [customers]. ["Also, you don't own anything you paid for anymore."] 000
Reposted by MegaZeuxauthorblues @authorblu.es · 14hThis is how culture dies. Games made by nobody, for an audience of nobody, remembered by nobody, built on the bones of great artists who came before. This is the last act of a dying civilization that forgot what it means to be human, if it ever actually was. 414043

MegaZeux @megazeux.bsky.social · 03/09/2026unrelated to any recent news, I recommend missing every SaaS password manager and instead using a local one. You can mostly just copy the database file between devices and it will work. The database file is encrypted, so just copy it somewhere to back it up. Also, they are free of charge 030
MegaZeux @megazeux.bsky.social · 02/09/2026afaik Kolourpaint (basic image editing) and GrafX2 (Deluxe Paint clone) also haven't been slopped, but they're more niche and I didn't see any statements from them on the subject 000

MegaZeux @megazeux.bsky.social · 03/08/2026if it really is in the GPU they might not want to increase the precision due to HW compatibility and due to the list of GPUs that are any good at FP64 being so small that you can list them in a single reddit comment. if not, who knows www.reddit.com/r/CUDA/comme...reddit.comMelirius's comment on "Is there a list of GPUs ranked by FP64?"Explore this conversation and more from the CUDA community 020
MegaZeux @megazeux.bsky.social · 03/08/2026At elevation 116800 the exponent is going to be floor(log2(116800)) = 16 and the precision limit 2^(16-23) = ~0.01, plenty of room for jitter like in that first video to accumulate on individual vertices from error. slightly higher (131072) will bump the exponent up again and make it worse 120
MegaZeux @megazeux.bsky.social · 03/08/2026it is single precision floating point rounding error, if I had to guess in GPU mesh vertex calculations where it isn't easily fixable by switching to doubles. why is it using values offset from the origin there? who knows.. 120
