Creating a universal VR/AR platform, much like the web browser is a platform for the World Wide Web. https://metaview.link #metaview #vr

Finally managed to understand and implement normal mapping into ammolite. #rust #vulkan #gltf #gamedev

This is what happens when you forget to assign the final color to fragments. https://i.imgur.com/D0HU8Fc.mp4 #rust #vulkan #gltf #gamedev

How does #firefox Sync work? It's actually well made and respects your privacy. https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/11/firefox-sync-privacy/

I don't know why I always have problems installing grub whenever I install an Ubuntu-based distro. I have to use boot-repair every time. It feels really refreshing to finally get to install a shiny new version of #elementaryOS, though!

I think I finally figured out how to use subpasses. Two different fragment shaders in this scene -- one for opaque materials, one for materials with alpha masking. #rust #vulkan #gltf #gamedev

Finally got camera controls to work properly, phew! #vulkan #gltf #rust

Added albedo texture mapping to my Vulkan glTF renderer. Unfortunately, it crashes when no texture data is provided. #vulkan #gltf #rust

Channel decomposition vs. chromatic aberration-like effects.

I finally managed to get NVENC working in OBS on elementaryOS Loki. Had to manually compile ffmpeg with nVidia's Video Codec SDK and CUDA and then compile OBS. I am getting about 70% less CPU usage when using NVENC H.264 compared to regular x264. OBS supposedly ships with NVENC support included in newer versions of Ubuntu-based distros, so this ordeal may no longer be necessary after updating to the upcoming version of elementaryOS. #obs #nvidia #nvenc #elementaryos
