I'm pretty sure @porsupah will enjoy this. https://twitter.com/AllyScherrer/status/1117550645010210816

Life is a constant parade of finding new things to love, and then discovering the creators of those things are gross.
Most powerful GPU NVIDIA has ever produced reviewed. Must see! https://youtu.be/iQIFF1OVic4

"One April evening in 1986, Bill Heine was sitting on the steps opposite his newly purchased terraced house in Oxford, drinking a glass of wine, when he turned to his friend and asked a simple question: “Can you do something to liven it up?”
His friend, the sculptor John Buckley, provided an answer in the shape of an eight-metre (25ft) shark which would sit on his roof, perpetually appearing as though it had just crashed into the house from the sky."
@Nine Yeah, these are mainly for general compute operations but might be fun to code a path tracer on it. I also have other GPU/sized PCIe cards with the Cell processor, like in the Playstation3 only the next-gen version thats 5x faster.
@Nine LOL, it’s based on Intel’s Larrabie prototype graphics card I think. It appears to your PC as a networked separate PC that you can ssh into, that happens to have 56 Intel Atom cores. i totally want to run games on it but single thread performance is gonna be terrible.
LaTeX is such an incredibly useful tool to have for free and I can even work with it comfortably on my phone. Need a really nicely typeset timing diagram? Oh, several are already built in and just takes a bit of time to work out the syntax to create stuff like this.
@Nine Ask away!
@porsupah Setup on this thing is weird. Not totally sold on this being legitimate but we'll see.
New fun toy: Emotiv Insight neural sensor. This should be fun.

@porsupah Can't be beat -- well it can but then it's technically foreplay. 👍

@fribbledom This is all ive printed thus far with it. I believe i got the filament off monoprice’s website for $16 but theres no brand on the spool.
@fribbledom Got some cheap wood PLA and it kind of left me underwhelmed (just like that conductive ABS I bought with my first printer) but I guess there are limits of woody-ness with 3D printing.
Very enjoying Samsung's SmartThings home automation SDK. Groovy script that executes on security hub, wide support for types of devices & ability to write handlers for homemade LAN or Zigbee/Z-Wave mesh, online IDE that tests with simulated or real devices.
@porsupah 80 Days is such a great title, and beautiful presentation.
It's Minecraft but with path tracing. So gorgeous!

Synclavier Go is a software emulation of the incredible Synclavier on iPad! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN_WqllG-J0 What a time to be alive. Full emulations of Fairlight CMI, Synclavier, and many other classic synths emulated on a portable device. Someday maybe we'll see the absolutely legendary Yamaha CS-80?

Death, emotional
@StQuelleSurprise Today I saw this on IG of this sweet poor doggo who lived a long and arduous existence, who was well-loved by its adopted owner her family and cats, who had long been suffering with terminal cancer and was finally relieved of its misery. And when I scrolled and saw the photo of Balam, the cat, lying with the doggo's lifeless body, my heart almost broke. Balam has long been cuddling and comforting Characo during the last few weeks of its existence. 😭 RIP
