shame we couldn't have popeyes turkey and baja blast pie in the same thanksgiving feast

From what I see, spine doesn't have an abstraction layer for transformation parametrization. Everything is directly tied to animations, so it works fine for threshold based tracking, like pngtubers, but it's still unintuitive for mapping blend shapes like from arkit.

Live2D let's people do too much without thought of consequence when designing, while also having absurdly high minimum requirements. A minimal vtuber model shouldn't need to take up more VRAM than an entire PS2 has to offer when you consider what Odin Sphere looked like. We are so cooked

Another feature, inspired by RabbitMQ, is basic pattern based topics for message routing. This is the feature I wanted that most other implementations lack. It's more flexible than binding to specific topics, while also avoiding putting message filtering responsibility on the callable.

When I last thought about this architecture, Godot 4 wasn't even out and there were plenty of awkward complications with binding functions. I had to do some silly stuff like automating subscriptions based on groups and send payloads to an implicit method. Now I can just use Callables for binding

absolutely obsessed with this song and MV right now

for real tho if I got laid off probably first thing I'd do is go to grad school instead of immediately try to get a new job, and I'd probably start vtubing regularly while studying.

I should be punished for tweeting before I've had a coffee 😩

if I had the ability to settle on a cohesive theme and visual style for a game, I'd totally be trying this myself. Though right now I'm messing around more with Wild Arms 2/Disgaea style low poly environments since I'm trying to learning to design isometric multi camera-angle levels

tbf the girl he was obsessed over lit his dick on fire literally and then yurifully embraced her girlfriend

my dad's grown cherry tomatoes for the past few years and they're always so good I can just pop them in my mouth like candy.

He's had trouble growing bigger tomatoes that he likes because whenever they get heavy enough ground hogs will come up and take a bite or even pluck them off 😢
