It's funny how Aero is remembered so fondly, where as in reality when it came out it was way too taxing for like 95% of systems. People ended up turning all of the features off or just used XP instead.
Sure the style looks nice and futuristic, but from a practical point of view it was a big miscalculation on Microsoft's part putting such a resource hungry style on by default.
I think this is one of the main reasons why Vista was so hated, it was just too heavy to run.
Back then the computer enthusiast circles were so much smaller, that even many of the more computer savvy people didn't really understand much about GPUs and CPU was just something where more gigahertz better.
People used random prebuilts with crappy specs that were more fit for the year 2000 than +2007 and back then CPU progress was staggering. Things got outdated really fast back then.

But then again the love for Aero is less about the style itself and more about the era and how much better things were back then.
Besides the current aesthetics are so fucking terrible, that you could pick almost any style from our history and compared to the modern soulless flat globalist prison aesthetic, it's infinitely more preferable.

It wasnt a miscalculation retard.

First they created the Problem (PCs not strong enough for new OS)

And then they sold the solution (better hardware)

For once MS was in the right and it was OEMs and retards slapping vista onto hardware that was barely suitable for XP.

This thread makes my head hurt.. but to those in the thread of the opinion that what is present here is sacrilege what do you suggest those of us who don't want to learn in the conventional ways do to create fun projects without using LLMs reading documentation only takes one so far, using LLMs to learn a means of doing something seems to me to be a fair use of the tool. Let's say I wanted to write something cool not some basic calculator or any other lame baby's first project, the options available to me are stumble in the dark, or tutorial hopping no? And if OP was to do either of these things he would probably abandon the project before seeing any of the fruits of his meager labour. I suppose my question is what's the point? If the LLM helps him to get to where he wants to be sooner what's the harm?

Pixel art is an art style, not a technological description. A render of a vector graphic onto a raster canvas doesn't make the vector graphic raster.

>>107851947
What all "traditional" examples of voxel rendering have in common is that the rendering technique derives from the idea that a 3D volume is a collection of discrete and uniform atomic elements, as opposed to a collection of surfaces to be approximated using polygons. Those "2.5D" engines that use colored spans are still rooted in that approach. They just introduce all kinds of constraints and quality concessions for the sake of performance.
>>
>>107852161
>3D volume is a collection of discrete and uniform atomic elements,
Something which >>107848290 doesn't have, while minecraft and every other mesh-based voxel renderer such as OP's does.
>as opposed to a collection of surfaces to be approximated using polygons
Let me humor you this. What if you instead extract the surface voxels as just points and upload them to the GPU. You then render that pointcloud using billboards that perfectly covers the voxels, and then crop those billboards in a fragment shader to precisely fit the voxel's shape. Is that a real voxel renderer? No polygons or surfaces are involved.
This is a real technique btw https://www.jcgt.org/published/0007/03/04/paper.pdf

>unable to come up with any original thought or to respond to my points with anything but appeal to perceived authority.
It's a useless argument about what a technical term refers to, you absolute cretin. Settling this matter doesn't require any deep thought, only accounting for how the term came into wide circulation. That fucking Comanche game alone accounts for a good 50% of that and Ken Silverman probably accounts for another 30.

What does require a bit of thinking is to realize WHY they used to call engines like Voxel Space "voxel rendering" when the only 3D thing about them is the impression they create, but you're getting filtered by this even after having it spelled out.

Maybe I need to dumb it down further for you? They called this stuff voxel rendering because the way you arrive at such techniques is, you start from the idea of full-fledged volume rendering and then ask yourself "what corners can I cut to make this run on consumer hardware?", so you arrive at ideas like a heightmapped terrain being a special case of the general problem - one that allows you to render batch voxels into columns and reduce columns into spans.

I don't care about your 105 IQ autist philosophizing about fragment shaders and GPUs.

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

For manga, you can probably get an android and download tachiyomi or any of the alt versions (I use tachiyomi J2K). It's convenient being able to access a fuckton of different sites + your own files all in one place, and using a tablet lets you have a double page spread.

>>107852366
Oh yeah for sure, I'm aware of what apps I'd need. Just unsure of what kind of tablet I should buy. I'm considering either getting a Samsung or a Xiaomi in the ~300€ price range. Xiaomi seems great for "bang for your buck" hardware but I've made somewhat terrible experiences with their bloatware. Meanwhile buying a samsung feels like paying 100€ in ransom money just to have the same hardware with none of the shitty bloat. That's my experience with phones at least, I don't know how applicable it is to their tablets.

no. it's not complicated, and its not the first time its happened. ever wonder why theres british cities in asia? Singapore and hongkong were the places where the british jews decided to outsource british industry to prevent british people from joining in on the wealth of the industrial revolution. These scheming fucks have been doing the same song and dance for every 200 years. And when someone else joins the industrial club and out businesses them, they start afucking 'world' war. Theyve done it twice, and they are gearing up to do it a third time because they cant comprehend that the reason their retarded plans keep failing is because they are retarded. They exclude the smartest people from their own society to prop up a forign one thinking this will some how soldify their power base at home because they are 'gods chosen people' and 'raciailly superior' so they dont think the ching chongs or whatever pajeet brownoid they select to be their new outsourcing base will ever figure out their magical white man technology and then oops the browns and yellows get enough wealth to actually feed themselves propperly and high iq nonwhites start getting born and suddenly they dont want to be the jew's slaves anymore and oops now they have the tools to set themselves free and OOPS gotta have a little WAR to put those people back in their places


The usa is a CONTINENT WIDE country with many international holdings. THEY DO NOT NEED TO TRADE WITH ANYONE EVER BESIDES THEMSELVES. It's all a trick, a lie. a misdirection to get you to lowkey agree. The fucking koreans HAD NO MONEY WHAT SO EVER before we GAVE IT TO THEM. They were literal dirt eatting peasents, ALL their industry was in the north, hence north korea breaking off and forming its own country. The japanese kept the south koreans as literal slaves, they didnt let them learn how to read or write, their only national export was human chattle slave labor
