You can use scripted expressions in drivers, and if the expression is complex it uses the Python interpreter, but drivers are an entirely separate system than GN. They always (afaik) put out a single value, so while you can use them to cont

Technically, but you need to copy and maintain that modifier for all objects. Even if you did that, usability is non-existent. Just to turn it off for a moment you'd have to select the objects with the right modifier and disable them u

As I said I'm not a programmer and I'm only familiar with GN so take anything I say with a grain of salt but: Google/YouTube is telling me that VEX is an expression language. We don't have that in GN yet. No scripting of

This is a relatively tame update, but the roadmap for the near future is really exciting, with stuff like Simulation Nodes (which already has a usable experimental branch) and Blender Apps ( https://code.blender.org/2022/

In terms of ability, sure, Blender can replace SketchUp (and more), but I don't think it'd be worth the learning hassle just for that. The free SketchUp web version should suffice for small DIY stuff. You can always bring your mod

Depends on what you're doing with it. I'm an architect who have been using SketchUp professionally for 20 years now, and I use Blender for hobby (Geometry Nodes stuff). For architecture work, Blender absolutely can NOT replace Ske

It's optional and Apple didn't want to be listed. Their logo has never been displayed on the page. They collaborated with devs from Apple quite closely though, they used to put the meeting notes and updates on devtalk.blender.org

The file browser interface is one of my least favorite things about Blender too, but apparently they're working on a big "Assets" update (a brand new interface for browsing and managing not only files but any kind of asset, l

> I can upload my own music (20,000 songs) for free That has been upped to 50,000 songs early this year, FYI. As an Enka and J-Pop listener, it's the defining feature for me too.

I'm hearing Baccano! dub is even better than the original, though I haven't gotten around to that one yet myself.

They had HTML5 video as a beta option for quite a while, and actually dropped Flash in favor of it as the default player about 4 months ago: http://www.theverge.com/2015/1/27/7926001/youtube-drops-flas...

And they should stop, and err on the side of caution. An anecdotal digression, if you'll allow me: I'll never forget the time when a plastic bag was gently flitting across the highway a friend and I was traveling on, in that non

Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan hotel somehow proved they were older. (Founded in 705, run by the same family for 52 generations.) Tofugu has a nice article about the centuries old establishments in Japan: http://www.tofugu.com/201
