Sounds like a soft vulnerable world hypothesis. I think it's training, collaboration, motivation, and funding of engineers that really matters though. I think what's happening in Ukraine shows that as long as brain drain happens

Darling 58 in your polyculture orchard folks, maybe the US can catch up to Chinese chestnut production by the 23rd century.

I spent 6 months helping to prototype and build the Seed Eco Home at Open Source Ecology ('a modular incremental 1000sqft home that two people can build in a week for $50,000') to help solve housing. https://wiki.openso

Really like the high quality design of the paper! €250 for a kit + shipping/assembly time does seem like a heavy price that would take a long time to pay for itself if not used in a centralized commercial facility. I like to imagine in

I know you can use C#: I have used C# and C++ in my Godot projects. However, other languages are not first class citizens in Godot. When I say GDScript isn't a real language people may interpret that as me being hostile towards Godot.

I agree that game engines should empower everyone to create more and better content with less effort. However, I don't think that a game engine specific scripting language is the best approach. For simple games that are similar to othe

Hey Terry, love Dicey Dungeons :) I think Godot is okay for simple things but GDScript ruins the whole engine for me. It's not a real language (which is antithetical to the whole idea of shared open source standards), you can't d

Hi, Wesley here. I drove across the United States to Missouri to join OSE for the apprenticeship and build the future of open source hardware. I dream of an open hardware future that is meaningful for all of humanity. Here's my video o

I'm developing a mobile game in Godot that would require thousands of nodes. The lowest hanging fruit optimization is simply ditching GDScript and nodes altogether for a C++ module or GDNative. ECS imo is a requirement for non-trivial

From Wikipedia on navel oranges: Today, navel oranges continue to be propagated through cutting and grafting. This does not allow for the usual selective breeding methodologies, and so all navel oranges can be considered fruits from that si

The other oranges were from https://kingorange.com/ , however the orange I ate didn't have any label (It's likely it was a Kings River Orange though)

The Axoloti looks great! I mainly have the OP-1 to make a chiptune OST, but Axoloti Patcher seems like it would be more functional. What I really want is something that can emulate old gaming console chiptunes and be portable.

For sure! I'm working on an open source gameplay framework and one of the 'upgrades' I'm planning is MIDI based manipulation of trees of gameplay values at runtime from knobs. You can read more here https://we

I SOLVED IT~! I was trying to run one of my old games using wine and SDL debug logged that MIDI would not work because of 'Unknown SEQ default' (sorry for lack of detail, I took an image of the output instead of saving the text -_

I bought an OP-1 and it is the best product I've ever used. However, I was wildly disappointed to find the MIDI control input doesn't work with ALSA sequencer consistently (I need this functionality for a programming side project)
