anthonypants posted:voxels are 'hey we made it look like minecraft' you can use voxels for terrain rendering and other things, but the minecraft cargo cult has pretty much made them synonymous with giant Lego block programmer art so if you want to do volumetric pixels I guess you better come up with a term that hasn't been coopted by assholes i suggest "trixels"

Nor is he asking for money for a specific problem like unpaid medical bills. He’s asking for free money to live his life. Any additional money that he crowdfunds, above $1,000 per month, will be donated to other basic-income activists who are doing the same thing. However, he will keep other money that he earns from working as a freelance writer. He says the same thing would happen with a government-funded basic income: People would keep the additional money they earn from their jobs.

I ended up watching that 45 minute youtube video of the guy talking about how he made voxeljs, last night lol it's actually kinda cool, he literally deep dived into every existing github repo that contained the phrase "minecraft" that had its main language as javascript, and then frankensteined this thing together pretty quickly It doesnt really work very well, but still cool

a guaranteed minimum income would fix so many problems that it will never happen although i do think that a way to get people to support it is to make clear that it will be for everybody, regardless of wealth or income, as opposed to a needs-based welfare program. that cuts out a lot of the racism and 'what about me'
