If you ever wondered why visible light is those particular wavelengths, it's because life evolved to see in the narrow range where water is transparent

Oh yeah and I found this photo at the same time from a few weeks ago. I made a degausser by wiring up a curled up extension cord and ran hot through hot + neutral (into a toaster oven) so the magnetic fields would combine instead of cancel out. It worked incredibly well; the entire cable vibrated

I'm not doomed, I'm just late
A comic about feeling doomed. Bex is lay on the floor with her head down. She says,  "It's too late for me... I fucked everything up... I took too long..." She suddenly lifts her head and says, "then again, I'm always late..." Sitting up,  she says, "And it's usually fine..." Finally standing on her feet, she says, "So why am I worrying about it?"

thanks! kinda hard to estimate since i've been completely exhausted, but it was a few days of modeling it in blender, one day of printing it, one day of soldering and crimping, and one day of rewriting the c program from my trackball for it. i knew exactly what i needed to do beforehand though

i put all the switches and knobs i had lying around into a box attached to my joystick. very nice for having controls in vr that you can reach with either hand, including a thumbstick mapped to the mouse and a button for recentering
Nice light blue 3D printed box covered in switches. A big landing gear handle juts out to the left.Inside wiring.Attached to the stick. The landing gear handle lights up poorly.Backside.

Genuinely, this completely rules
-Recently, the game has been going viral on X for its beautiful undressing animations. I’ve even read in one of your previous interviews that the development team practiced stripping themselves as reference for the undressing animations. What was the process behind making the animations actually like?

Matsui:

I’d love to know how far that story has spread. It’s true.

First, we write a plot for each undressing scene, then draw storyboards, exactly as the original team did. Then the real work begins, because the animation is essentially all keyed by hand. A designer moves the clothing’s 3D model, frame by frame, manually. It really is pretty much like the claymation method I mentioned.

We did try automating it with physics simulation first, but it was a total failure. The cloth moved in a physically correct way, but had absolutely no allure. We learned a profound lesson: accuracy and sensuality are two unrelated properties. In the end, we accepted that humans would have to do all of it.

Then VR adds its own weight. In a normal game, if something becomes awkward, you can cut away or swap models between scenes. In VR, the player can look from any angle at any time, so none of those tricks are available. The same model has to undress convincingly no matter where you’re standing. When I described this to a designer at another studio, he said, “I would never do that.” I’ve chosen to take it as a compliment.And then, yes, the part you’ve read about. The undressing motions themselves use motion capture, but the deeper problem was that nobody actually knew the correct rhythm and order in which a person takes off clothes. So, the directors gathered and undressed themselves as reference. “That zipper is coming down too fast.” “She’d pause once before slipping her shoulder out.” These were serious, sober discussions. For compliance reasons, the Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns team works in a walled-off section of our office – and that was the moment those walls truly earned their keep.
