La battaglia intorno alla città dell'#Ucraina orientale di #Pokrovsk infuria. I russi hanno comunicato di aver "neutralizzato" il commando delle forze ucraine e di aver sventato ulteriori "sette attacchi nemici intrapresi per sfuggire all'#accerchiamento".

Are you allowed to protest the war on Iran at #NoKings / #NoTyrants ?

@informapirata @signorina37 @eticadigitale ottima analisi: un concentrato di verità assoluta, senza se e senza ma.
Io spesso mi soffermo sugli aspetti della tecnologia dove eri praticamente costretto a leggere il manuale per saperla usare, e avere una dose di pazienza non indifferente, tipo regolare l'azimuth di un lettore di cassette, ma c'era anche il discorso giochi, decisamente più incisivo e comune, che avevo "rimosso".
Con le Crystal Ball e il DAS ci sono cresciuto 😃

Slug Algorithm for On-GPU Rendering of Fonts with Bézier Curves now in Public Domain
The Slug Algorithm has been around for a decade now, mostly quietly rendering fonts and later entire GUIs using Bézier curves directly on the GPU for games and other types of software, but due to its proprietary nature it didn’t see much adoption outside of commercial settings. This has now changed with its author, [Eric Lengyel], releasing it to the public domain without any limitations.
Originally [Eric] had received a software patent in 2019 for the algorithm that would have prevented anyone else from implementing it until the patent’s expiration in 2038. Since 2016 [Eric] and his business have however had in his eyes sufficient benefit from the patent, making it unnecessary to hold on to it any longer and retain such exclusivity.
To help anyone with implementing their own version of the algorithm, there is a GitHub repository containing reference shader implementations with plenty of inline comments that should help anyone with some shader experience get started.
Although pretty niche in the eyes of the average person, the benefits of using on-GPU rendering of elements like fonts are obvious in terms of rendering optimization. With this change open source rendering engines for games and more can finally also use it as well.
Thanks to [Footleg] for the tip.

@Moosader it's really good too

We report during the half hour in the evening when birds cannot help but sing. Recently, a few more species have joined the sparrows that kept on chirping through winter. We can only really pick out the blackbirds in the mix. It gets late, and dark, and the birds do not quiet.
