last year I started building a memorial to the martyrs of the ongoing genocide on Gaza. it invites people from around the world to read out the names of the dead and acknowledge their humanity through collective grief. this weekend i managed to finish giving the project a fediverse presence 🙏
the bot will post one recording of a martyr's name from the memorial every day. please follow to keep them in your hearts and to keep the ongoing genocide on your mind. boosts welcome.
and as always if you feel moved to contribute your voice, please do at https://contribute.gaza.memorial/
give me one good reason not to use std::wstring for all unicode strings
camel case is the language of the oppressor
@nasser thats just the file extension, but's not good
what i came back here to say is: stay away from 3 letter acronyms in computer programming, they're never anything good
noone cares about programming shitposts on bluesky, so i come crawling back here
made a little trailer for the game im working on:
after evaluating the current state of web backends, i decided to write my next web project as a raw port 80 socket in c++
made this parametric single line font system and editor a couple of years ago inspired by Hershey fonts and LCD displays where each character is defined by a 64-bit mask. keep meaning to turn it into a little graphics library for easy to use unicode type rendering.
@nasser "i've played a creative technologist simulator, does that count?"
i take back what i said earlier about Unity 6 having GLTF support; i was mistaken and it doesn't. kind of incredible for it to still not support one of the best and most popular 3d graphics interchange formats.
they added generative AI to MS Paint and a currency to use it. you can't make this stuff up!

@selfsame chonkosaurus
the latest version of Unity finally has native GLTF import support... and it doesn't work properly. still completely garbage software.
