@syme i was actually just thinking of docker containers but this is true too

@Felthry well, it was originally unics, so theoretically yes. however, to quote brian kernighan, "no one can remember" the origin of the final spelling unix, so for similar mysterious reasons i will claim that "no one can remember" why i spell the plural as unixes

1979: dozens of users per unix
2019: dozens of unixes per user

@zoe was is the right tense there

@matt @fluffy could also be tempeh, it comes in that form factor too

@cooler_ranch @pea if there has been a new problem recently, i have not received a report or a DM about it

@nex3 public libraries are like the one good thing that materialized in our timeline from the timeline where society had more of its shit figured out

just found this post from a reddit user asking the same question which seems to be pretty good: http://ogldev.atspace.co.uk/www/tutorial38/tutorial38.html

reddit thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/opengl/comments/4du56u/trying_to_understand_skeletal_animation/

gamedevs of mastodon: anyone got good resources for learning how skeletal animation typically works in 3d game engines? i have a basic understanding of how rigs are set up and associated with vertices in a 3d modelling tool, but i'm trying to learn how that gets translated into particulars within an engine.

@InspectorCaracal i put my backups on s3 so the cost of forgetting is luckily "only" a steadily increasing number of dollars per month. low double digits at least, because the data is just sitting there.

@staticsafe @gargron i administrate multiple instances and would appreciate the same functionality.

i complained a lot about the heat in previous years, so just so the weather deities don't think i'm ungrateful: i'm really enjoying this low-70s overcast-and-rainy weather we're having in seattle this summer
