So this is a third party blender addon marketplace for only free addons? Or is this from the group behind blender and planned to be the future addon system? I’ve made a couple extensions for engraving text/svgs because I make a lot of custom keycaps, is that a good fit for this platform?
Now that is a god damn unpopular opinion, but I feel like it’s worth downvoting because unpopular opinion does not imply the op should be a dick about it.
Fuck capitalism, the world may never recover from our obsession with it
I have the aeron, it’s nice but a bit uncomfortable if you sit in it in any sort of non standard way, I sit with my legs crossed and my cat in my lap and unless I pad the heck out of the bottom with extra pillow or blanket the hard plastic digs into my feet and legs.
For me a far more comfortable approach is a monitor on a stand and a comfortable easy chair, along with a split ergonomic bluetooth keyboard. Embrace our wall-e future

I think easier access to emancipation would be incredible, when I was a teen in a bad situation I didn’t even know it was an option.
Perhaps the frontal lobes aren’t developed, but is that really a reasonable argument against freedom of action? Are we saying people who have less intelligence should not be given freedom? Why is the age 18 instead of 25? I think that’s a bad argument.
Haven’t been following lately, mistral was the best unrestricted model when I was on the scene a bit ago
I don’t think I have enough jehovas witness background to understand this, is that a … cannibal sandwich? Are they referencing something or are they just being straight up racist and saying black people are the enemy?
Giving up isn’t so bad, but for myself I limit how much social media and news I consume and do my best to plan life ahead for any upcoming tragedies when I do get my periodic doses.
Not much we can do about the truly terrible things happening, but we can make existence a little less shitty around ourselves.
You and I are not the center of the universe, it’s okay to just exist.
I’m nihilistic so keep that bias in mind with the rest of this:
Life is a beautiful nightmare. Death is inevitable and worrying about it does nothing positive for you. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with accepting death before it comes 👍
Hmm one is fairly standard and the other is heavily invested in scala

Across the US, struggling friends are closer to the east coast of the US
Anecdotally, the vast majority of my developer buddies are gainfully employed, but a couple talented old hands who have been employed for 10+ years are struggling to find jobs.
Eh the general consensus is that this launch is a small early adopter phase and they have cheaper versions in the pipeline. They’re only producing <100k units, definitely not going for mass adoption yet
People are in a rush to learn to program because they’re desperate to escape the financial situation that burdens them.
In 2024 when average housing costs are skyrocketing, food prices are untenable, and the overall cost of living far exceeds the worker making double minimum wage, people flock to the jobs they’ve heard make enough to live.
It took me about 10 years to learn to build software. But to learn to program? That’s an exercise of weeks of dedicated effort. In my opinion we all have a natural affinity for making and following instructions and that translates very well indeed to programming. Unfortunately there is so much more involved in the pursuit of making software.
Operating systems, languages, tooling, source control, continuous integration/deployment, documentation, architecture, unit testing, frameworks, third party packages, and so much more make up a developer’s repertoire.
Today we have excellent supplemental help for the act of programming with copilot and associated coding tools, but the other stuff requires knowledge and knowledge takes time.
There is no other job I know of that somebody can dedicate time alone to learning and then jump into a job making >$200k usd in reasonably short order than software, of course people are rushing to learn!
Very interested in this, missing some key features for my use cases but excited to see how it matures!
Includes this and many other frameworks
Bro who is making all of these weird as Tony Soprano ai images?
One thing to consider, if this turned out to be accepted, it would make it much harder to prosecute actual csam, they could claim “ai generated” for actual images
