  • Z is only depth if your camera happens to be at the origin facing in the positive Z direction, though. In most games, the camera almost never rotates except about a vertical axis, though, so Z as the vertical axis stays vertical always. (Exceptions being space sims, that leaning-around-the-corner maneuver in a lot of games where the camera tips, games with shifting gravity, etc.)

    I dunno. Z as up always felt more intuitive to me. It's just another thing to argue about like Vim vs Emacs and tabs vs spaces, I guess.

  • And then if you still can't scroll up/down to read the rest of the article, look for and disable any overflow:hidden; or position: fixed in the CSS. It'll probably be on the <html> or <body> tag, or on something pretty "high level" just under the <body> tag or no more than a couple of levels of hierarchy beneath.

  • A Simple Software Change to Add "Bricklayer" Mode to Slicers Delivers Truly Water-Tight 3D Prints

    Jump

  • Out of curiosity, I went and found the OrcaSlicer ticket where they're working on adding the bricklaying feature to OrcaSlicer. Seems like they're just hoping it doesn't attract Stratasys' attention.

    Even if they have to remove the feature, it'll still be in the history of the repo and it should be relatively easy to unrevert and rebuild personally on one's own computer if necessary. Until the codebase changes enough to make it harder to maintain the fork.

  • Supreme Court allows Texas to use a congressional map favorable to Republicans in 2026

    Jump

  • Oh, I didn't say I knew how to make that happen.

    Democrats when they're in power promoting places like Puerto Rico and DC into states definitely wouldn't hurt, though.

    Also, theoretically Trump getting less and less popular is probably helping its chances.

    And more awareness of the existence of the pact is definitely beneficial.

    Whether it's likely to happen even if the above all happens, who knows.

  • Stratasys still has a patent on it

    That's putting it generously, isn't it?

    This video from a year ago goes into why the patent they have today isn't valid. (Short answer: prior art. They patented it in 1995 and that expired in 2015 in the U.S. and 2016 in Europe. Then they re-patented it in 2020, which isn't really something they can do, but the patent office granted it anyway, probably unaware of the prior patent. There's kindof a "new claim" in the later patent, but there's prior art for that as well in the form of a 2019 feature request on PrusaSlicer's Github.)

    I get that Stratasys has lawyers and money and might theoretically be able to win even a case with as little merit as a patent case regarding that 2020 patent would have. But I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say they have a (valid) patent.

  • Mom wanted me to go into music performance. I went into computer science both because "holy shit how cool is that" and to get out of music performance.

    My alma mater had three computer departments: CSC/CompSci, CIS/Computer Information Systems, and Graphic Design. I've never been artistic, really, so I didn't have a lot of interest in Graphic Design. But I didn't know the difference really between CIS and CSC going into college.

    I went to the head of the CIS department to ask about the difference and he was like "CSC is about building the plane, CIS is about flying the plane." Misinterpreting that to mean CSC was about hardware and CIS was about software, I thought I wanted CIS. When I met with the CSC head, he met with me in a little lab in the CSC department. And on the shelves on the walls, there were robotic coin sorters and Lego robots and stuff. And that's basically when I realized the CSC department was my people.
