Apparently some people are only finding out about systemd being corporate crap NOW?

@view LOL

@eniko You can use SIMD ops for that too but the biggest problem for SW rendering is sampling+edge cull. AVX2 has gather-load ops (to pull texture data from spread-out locations) and conditional store ops (to avoid storing outside of the tri edge), which make it much less problematic.

There are writeups out there for how to compute barycentric coordinates for each pixel, which will let you interpolate the coordinates+matrices of each vert. Beyond that it's the same as using shaders.

@xgranade the polycrisis works to the advantage of the people who think they can profit from it,
until it doesn’t

@endrift @ben I worry about my prepubescent screaming face becoming a pre-internet meme.

@eniko @TomF Only for directional lights, yeah. This is the same technique that the "doing 3D on the Gameboy Color" article that was doing the rounds a while back was using, except they were using hardware palettes as the indices and pre-baking the entire scene as one big normal texture.

@junior @plexus

I don't have a category for that, sorry 😅

Ci sono momenti storici in cui l’individuo avverte la possibilità di poter incidere sugli eventi; qualcosa, nel suo inconscio, gli dice che perfino un’opinione isolata può produrre effetti. In altri periodi, invece, ognuno si sente totalmente impotente e si rifugia nell’apatia. I tempi delle rivoluzioni e quelli
