  1. Trying to wrap my mind around Peter Shipkov's Overburn Technique, which is basically using a fluid simulator as the rendering shader for particles, as opposed to directly using particles with particle shaders, or fluids with fluid shaders.

    My brain is full of PP ramp samplers.

  2. Hubble's Ultra Deep Field is one of the best references there is of the oldest parts of the universe.

    The faint specking in the dark beyond the near galaxies are our farthest glances into the universal horizon, somewhere around 10-15 billion lightyears away, and consequently, 10-15 billion years old.

  3. Dear Princess Celestia

     

    Now that there is peace, we can enjoy both cupcakes and bacon. Now let's talk about what we learned about ourselves and each other.

     

    I learned that I found My Little Pony interesting to read into far more than the stories usually suggested.

    • For example, Spike demonstrates that dragons in MLP are likely omnivorous lithivores. They are capable of eating many different things, but their diets rely on minerals or metals. Evidenced by his body chemistry being very satisfied with the eating of gemstones, the components of vegatable foods being edible but disgusting to him (much like how humans do enjoy sour compounds, but drinking vinegar is not very popular) and higher carbohydrates acting like minor poisons (which would explain how he got drunk off of doughnuts).

     

    I also learned that both sides Brony and Anti-brony are far more meek than you'd think, and that Epsilon sort of has anger issues, but the two of us have been talking about that.

     

    Your Faithful Student,

    For all of my being an insufferable genius, it seems I'm not very perceptive.

    I refuse to believe I am a gender-bent Twilight Sparkle.

  4. If I could turn back time... the things I would say to little Blue.

     

    But for simplicity and silly forum game's sake, I'll say that I'd go back in time so that I could totally rip off Ron Howard before he was born and make a movie about going to the moon realistic-like back in the 1950s.

  5. I have a very capable grasp of everything to do with computer graphics, but am only able to make things in terms of 3D models, raster video graphics, compositing and lighting.

    Still have all my lego from being a kid.

    Have greater than average stamina in terms of walking, I walked just under 50 km in one day before, and we'll see if that can translate into jogging. (Entirely different workout, I know)

  6. There is no absolute consensus in the international community about where Earth's atmosphere ends and Space begins. The US Government deems people astronauts who venture higher in altitude than 50 miles (80km), NASA for mission logistics designates it at 76 miles (122km) and the French Space Administration maintains it at exactly 100km from sea level (62 miles).
