    Help! I've talked someone into being curious about (fragment) shader-ing ala shadertoy, but I can't find a decent node-based GUI for shader editing that has decent ergonomics but is also close enough to GLSL structurally to allow shadertoy-like mathy exploration.So far everything I've seen fails in a significant way on either of these:- Blender: separate "Math" and "Vector Math" nodes. "Math" node with drop-down instead of granular primitives- Godot: "Function" node with drop-down instead of granular primitives- Unity: uh ... i just don't want to do this to them i think- cables.gl: no vector types at all??? setup a bit elaborate- https://victhorlopez.github.io/editor/ closest so far; polymorphic functions but doesn't auto-cast values; UX a bit underdone ...surely there would be a web tool for this given the popularity of SDFs etc???#askfedi #glsl #shader

    So... @fedora has made a policy explicitly allowing AI code. So I have to change my home distro. @gentoo and @netbsd both have specific policies against it, but I ain't about doing a Gentoo install (sorry, guys, I love you for this, but I need a binary first distro), and NetBSD ain't great for gaming AFAIK.So... any other Distros wanna step up and do the right thing? @archlinux? @opensuse? @debian? #VoidLinux? @alpinelinux? Just a public statement that says "No, we don't want that crap" would be plenty --- I understand the difficulty of enforcing the policy, but setting it as a community/commit standard would go a long way towards making a lot of us feel better.(Boost for visibility, please?)#AI #Linux #Distro #BSD

    @sharan then dual booting is going to be a huge PITN if you plan on having Linux as your primary, and the VM solution might be worth looking into. If Windows will remain your primary OS than it won't matter that much.
