announcement:

here is a new open source alternative to perlin noise: octavia noise

it is a lightweight fractal noise algorithm. it is generalizable to n dimensions. it is not based on gridded points, and does not exhibit linear artifacts.

this is suitable for terrain and other procgen work where organicity and reducing grid artifacts are important, especially situations where slope artifacts are important. the initial js implementation takes 4x as long as value noise.

Impressively, it also provided me with somewhat correct GLSL shader code when asked what shader I should use to draw them.

Asked ChatGPT to give me the OpenGL code for drawing a hammer and sickle and it gave me vertex and index buffers and valid code for drawing them, but the buffers seem to only contain 2 rectangles.

good news, fediverse! After a 6 month hiatus skull.supply/ is open again! Plenty of new objects and I'll be shipping in time for the holidays. Boosts welcome!

It's almost DECember! That's right, a whole month of writing all of your integer literals in base 10 only!

Life’s greatest truths always sound the cringiest. Live love laugh, motherfuckers!

If there is one truth I learned in life, it is that you can never make yourself happy, but only make others happy and that maybe someone could do the same for you.

Proposal: instead of “unlisted” we call them “silent toots”
