I will never get over how wild it is that inverse kinematics is actually computationally easy because it _feels_ like it should be a very difficult problem

there are many things in computing that feel like they should be simple but are actually hard, but few things that feel like they should be hard that are actually easy

eee. mana collection today

apparently contrapoints made another video but everyone talking about it is just saying contra so for a moment I thought there was a new contra game or something

so I saw things earlier on here about how someone named Epstein had passed away and that people seemed to think that was a good thing but I have no idea who that actually is

the name was _all over_ the tabloids at the checkout at the grocery store just now so now i'm curious

Fun fact: the first cavity magnetrons were made using the exact same machinery used to manufacture the spinny bit of revolvers, with a little bit of post-machining to make it more magnetron-shaped

iwrc they actually rented or bought the machining equipment from a gunsmithing company

fun fact: you can fairly accurately approximate the capacity of a common high-density 3.5" floppy disk as 1/ln(2) megabytes

why you would want to do this, I have no idea. but you can!

what exactly does "cuck" mean

though i guess it's more that... anything that's like, seeing people talk in a chatroom is Too Much, talking to people myself is okay

ever have one of those days where any sort of social activity is Too Much? that's today for us
