Wrote a custom C++ engine to render raw WAD geometry directly to the DAC.
Pure vector output, 1D occlusion culling, no rasterization tricks.
Running on a MOTU M4.

@ut3usw That looks super cool, can you elaborate a bit how you get the graphics onto the scope?

@Quantensalat Hey! TY! The graphics are just stereo audio signals generated in code. X and Y coordinates are mapped directly to Left and Right audio channel voltages.

@ut3usw Haha, that is even cooler than expected. You get enough bandwidth from audio for such sharp edges! I would have guessed that audio dac output filters would mess it up more

@Quantensalat Actually, the DAC filters help here! Since I'm drawing continuous paths instead of raster pixels, the reconstruction filter smooths the discrete samples into nice clean lines. Plus, running at 96kHz gives enough bandwidth for sharpness

@ut3usw that's fun. Are you controlling/calculating this in real time?

@poleguy yes, ty! In real time wasd control.
On video below it’s how I see it on pc screen (with actual audio). -

@GustavinoBevilacqua @yaw ecco, magari un po' (tanto) meno elitista di una Castalia, essere qui per scelta consapevole sì, ma se la scelta è “perché qui vedo gattini e shitpost dei miei amici (o di perfetti sconosciuti) senza che vengano coperti dai gatti generati dall'ai degli influencer alla ricerca di profitto” va benissimo ugualmente

This is fantastic.

I've been boycotting Samsung for years now. People outside Korea often seem surprised when I mention this—after all, Samsung is one of the most recognizable Korean brands globally. So let me explain.
It started after I read <cite>Think Samsung</cite> (<cite lang="ko"><ruby>三星<rp>(</rp><rt>삼성</rt><rp>)</rp></ruby>을 생각한다</cite>) by Kim Yong-chul, a former Samsung lawyer turned whistleblower. The book exposed systematic corruption, slush funds, and how the conglomerate wielded its influence to evade accountability. It painted a picture of a company that operated as if it were above the law.
But what pushed me from mere dislike to active boycott was the 2015 merger between Samsung C&T and Cheil Industries. This wasn't just questionable corporate governance—it was engineered to help Lee Jae-yong consolidate control of the Samsung empire. The merger ratio heavily undervalued Samsung C&T, and the National Pension Service, despite its fiduciary duty to Korean citizens, voted in favor of it. Korean pensioners lost billions.
The whole affair later became central to the corruption scandal that brought down President Park Geun-hye. Lee Jae-yong was convicted of bribery. And yet Samsung continues as if nothing happened.
I'm under no illusion that my personal boycott hurts Samsung in any meaningful way. But some things aren't about effectiveness. They're about not being complicit.

C'è stata una generazioni di "capitani di industria" che avevano una etica.

Concordissimo.
Non si può fare solo una questione di numeri!
Siamo (noi Fediverso) la Castalia utopizzata da Hesse a fine anni '30, come risposta a quella che chiamava "era del feuilleton"?
Hesse era rimasto alla carta stampata… se vedesse a che punto è arrivato il feuilleton si ritirerebbe sopra Sils Maria a coltivare erbe officinali.

Domanda da fuori dell'Italia:
ma non c'è nessuno che stia proponendo di non partecipare ai Mondiali negli USA?
Vedi che se famo batte da li Spagnoli pure sta vorta.
