I don't think I've ever owned a Seagate drive in the last 20 or so years. Every time I've been shopping for a spinning disk, there has been some ongoing controversy surrounding Seagate in one form or another that turned me off buying one.
Ahhh, our local fascist party doing what they do best.
I struggle to think of something I'd rather do less than entrust Musk with my money.
Gargling sulphuric acid, perhaps.
Wait until they hear what data Instagram/Meta collects during use!
But they're a US company so it's ok.
I wish I could do more shopping there, but eBay in Canada is extremely expensive which has lead to it being kind of a ghost town compared to the US. $20-$50 shipping fees, even on tiny items, is common.
So I've started to use AliExpress more often. Literally the exact same item on Amazon but without the markup - sometimes even half the price. It's not a great solution but the online shopping selection here in Canada is awful.
Not every type of epilepsy is photosensitive.
In fact, it's an extremely rare form of epilepsy.
Also tonic-clonic seizures are only one of many kinds, and they are not fun.
The primary use of my computer is for work as I am a 3D artist. I also watch a lot of videos and it serves as my audio rig for my music and headphones.
Well, think about it.
They profit off their users by either charging them for a service, selling user data, and/or advertisement. If their dating app was very successful and quickly matched users together, they wouldn't be using the app very long and the company would lose potential profit.
This probably wasn't the case in the earlier days of the internet but it certainly is now. They want you hooked and coming back every day so they can get maximum profit off you.
Paid calculator apps.
Not only are many of them paid - but they are subscription as well. Imagine paying a monthly fee for your goddamn calculator.
This comes shortly after news that EA lost several billion in market value and Veilguard underperformed, so not surprising at all.
Nvidia is in the business of selling AI hardware. They want to hype up AI so they sell more hardware.
This is a salesman trying to make a sale.
Been a while since I had some time to do a detailed outdoor scene. A bit of snow this time because winter, of course. Made in Blender and Affinity Photo!
Made in Blender and colour corrected and edited in Affinity Photo. Mushroom is from TVFX Undergrowth.
A little something I whipped up to stress test my new workstation PC while in-between bigger projects. Made in Blender and Photoshop! :D
I picked up this old calculator from a thrift store for $25. I cleaned it up and got it working again and decided it would make for a cool thing to model, especially with the VFD tubes! My model is not perfectly 1:1 to the original but I tried to make it match where it counts. This model was a lot of fun to make and I am very happy with how it turned out! Made in Blender and Substance Painter.
A little close up macro scene I put together in Blender! I usually do expansive vistas or interiors so this was a nice change of pace for me.
Remaking one of my very first 3D scenes with my modern skills and knowledge. I think it turned out alright! Thank you for looking :D
Made in Blender and Substance Painter with editing in Photoshop.
Been a while since I made something snowy in Blender! Turned out decently, I think. I usually do pictures with stronger, more direct sunlight so it was cool to do a semi-overcast scene. Made in Blender with light touching up in Photoshop!
A sort of thought-exercise-turned-artproject encouraged by my therapist. Not exactly how I imagined it when I started but that is usually how these go. Made in Blender with editing in Photoshop. Thanks for looking :D
My newest 3D piece I finished up this morning. Made in Blender with some mild editing in Photoshop afterwards. Thanks for lookin! :D
My latest thingy made in Blender with light post processing done in Photoshop!
Handsome and floofy. Was surprised how big they are when I saw some in person. Beautiful birbs!
Figured I'd share my latest piece I just completed today. For those that like a bit of spacey scifi! Made entirely in Blender with some touching up in Photoshop afterwards.
I've learned that whenever a major US organisation criticises China for something it's almost always projection.
