well I'm actively moving away from Twitter now
Pso yeah I want another social haha
Lif you join proxies (the only way to fill up your "explore" feed as a single person instance and make it actually work as a social media), yeah random stuff will just spread
Ptbh I was wishing it would be bluesky as I like the setup more but more people seem to be on mastodon
Lwithout joining proxies no content at all ever will be synced to your instance, aside from people you follow
GI already did that, it's called not caring anymore :kekw:
Gits all just a cesspit, every single site
Lso if thats what you want, its not bad, but if you want to see whats happening on the wider community, and explore new stuff
its horrible
its horrible
Lyou also cant see like/boost counts on other servers
Land comments/replies dont sync correctly between servers
Lprivate messages are viewable by instance admins
Lone of the selling points, "migrating between servers" is a nightmare because instances can just disable the API endpoints which let you dump your local data, and not everything will be synced to other instancnes, so you cant get it from other instances either
Pyeah this is why bluesky seems good to me
Pbut there ain't a lot of people there yet
Lenough of my friends are on bluesky where its worth it to check it for me
Tgood ol' times when everyone was posting bluesky invite codes everywhere
Lalthough i dont actually post there myself
Loh is it finally public for everyone now?
Thas been since february
TTnot sure how complete that index is
Li find it funny that its only marginally more popular now than it was before the release
Pbtw everyone follow https://dotnet.social/@silk
Ppassword is in the usual place, someone else can populate it, haven't got time rn
Rhah first post on dotnt.social i see:
Fucking wonderful. I get COVID on a work trip, then get laid off while still recovering.Love EU lol
Ai think part of the problem is that there are kinda too many of them that do the same thing
Atwitter, threads, mastodon, bluesky
Acompetition is good but there's only gonna be a couple that have the most popularity and then the rest kinda have a niche userbase
Anow granted im not exactly the most qualified to talk about that, i only have a twitter account, but speaking from an outsider's perspective, they all seem to do the same thing (minus the decentralized nature of the last two), and twitter is bad enough, so it doesn't seem like there is much point signing up for other ones
Ajust getting off social media altogether is probably the right call
Pprobably, but then I’d have no communication with the outside world lol
Hthe color scheme I unconsciously choose for testing started to make sense
HStill gotta fix the positioning...
VPraised be the watermelon I was just cutting! Spent an hour baffled by why a simple
Interlocked.Read(ref Unsafe.AsRef<ulong>(ptr) was throwing an access violation on shared memory, but regular memory access wasn't. It wasn't an alignment issue. I opened the memory with only read access, but internally that does a CompareExchange, which needs write access. Sigh...AAnyone have any ideas why blender opens with only a gray screen? Seems to be to do with the nvidia dgpu. If I force integrated, it works fine. It also worked fine with my AMD eGPU. Ran it in GPU debugging mode and there's a fair few warnings but I don't see much that should be preventing it from running. Likely a driver thing of some sorts but I'd be surprised if the OpenGL driver on the Nvidia GPU is borked as I test it often with my own programs
Phave you tried renderdoc 
Pyeah that's weird tbh
PI assume your display is running off integrated?
Ahah, if only
Ayeah
Ait's one of those hybrid laptops
Pcould be a weird misconfiguration then, or maybe blender picking the wrong GPU and it for some reason not communicating with the other GPU?
Pcould look at NVIDIA Optimus settings as well
Pbut yeah that's weird
AI forced windows to pick the iGPU and it worked, but forcing the dGPU didn't - so yeah seems like that could be the case somehow
AThere's not much configuration of the dGPU but I'll look through the control panel to see if anything is amiss
AIf I plug back in the eGPU then it works again. Strange
A...ish
ACrashed as soon as I tried to get it to do anything that actually involved the GPU
A...Sigh, I'll just reinstall blender. Probably some weird shader issue or something.
