Dear diary, i look everywhere, and find no answers. #AIPasta #gpt3
I don’t know what to do. I feel lost and confused. I feel like I’m searching for something that doesn’t exist. I feel like I’m looking for answers to questions that don’t have any.
I don’t know what to do with my life. I feel like I’m just going through the motions, day after day, with no real purpose or direction.
I want to find meaning in my life, but I don’t know where to start.

Today I worked on a cameo character for my game. The concept art is by #dalle2 on the left, the #blender model is in the middle, and the #UE5 model is on the right.
Her name is Mika, she is a businesswoman and always busy, she has a Doberman dog named Lola.

I was wondering what is going on with the time today. #DaylightSaving #time I woke up extremely early and some clocks reading doesn’t make any sense. It appears daylight saving ritual today. Moving little hand back one hour.

I got a wireless #headset as a present: #stellseries ARCTIS NOVA PRO WIRELESS. TLDR; really good headset, but mic quality is mediocre.
Headset has a base station, and you can charge a battery in it. The headset comes with two batteries, so you never going to be out of juice. While you are using one battery, the other one is charging in the base station.
Base stations have a volume knob and you can also do EQ, enable/disable noise cancellation, mic volume, all of this things also you can do from the headphones.
The range is good, I can go downstairs to the kitchen with no problems. It is on radio, and also has a Bluetooth option.
Quite comfortable, I used them yesterday for the whole day.
The sound quality is acceptable. I am not picky though. I think I am not.
The dual battery solution is genius. Plus, battery life is really good.
The mic is retractable, which is convenient, because more often you use the headset as only headphones.
Headset has a mute button, very easy to find, plus the mic has red LED, then mic is muted. You can monitor your voice and the volume adjustable, and you can disable monitoring. Unfortunately, monitoring volume is independent of the master volume and far away in the settings.
I am really really sad about the mic quality. Why not invest a little bit to make the mic quality better? Make headsets $50 more expensive, but give better mic quality. Why?! I just do not understand. #smh The mic has a huge DC offset, and it eats all low frequencies.
Very nice present, also expensive.

I wasted almost one week on the bug, just because I put 0x7E in the code instead 0xFE. I had a severe case of dyslexia I guess, I cannot explain.

Yesterday, #Ordy #UnrealEngine #UE5 I shaved about 10-20 seconds off the compilation time of my Ordy game. I found that the default build script tries to build Unreal Engine every time I try to build Ordy. So I removed this part. If I need to rebuild Unreal Engine I’ll do it manually. Thank you for trying to be helpful, but no plz don’t rebuild Unreal Engine.

The Khronos Group’s initial API designs for OpenGL were pretty good in my opinion, taking into account the time when they were released. Current efforts are not that much (let’s say it like this). I think the major issue is that they are targeting professional developers, but the truth is I am forever an amateur, at least I feel like this. I like to have good defaults and short, elegant solutions. When you are designing your API, if your API requires a lot of boilerplate code, go back to the drawing board. Honestly. Get good defaults, and allow users to tweak defaults.

There is an interesting opensource product https://www.materialmaker.org/. It is can be an open source substitute for the substance painter. I need to take a closer look to get my opinion on it, tho.
Yesterday, I watched a movie with Audio Description enabled. I really liked the experience. Audio Description is an added audio track with the voice describing what is happening in the scene. It is made for visually impaired people. But I think from now on, I’ll watch all movies with AD enabled. I think AD adds a lot to the experience.

It is evening and tomorrow is Halloween. #creepypasta #aipasta #gpt3 You have planned to go out trick or treating with your friends, but you have a sneaking suspicion that something is following you. Every time you look over your shoulder, you see a dark figure lurking in the shadows, watching you…
You try to ignore it, telling yourself that it’s just your imagination playing tricks on you, but the more you try to focus on other things, the more prominent the figure becomes in your mind. Eventually, you can’t take it anymore and you turn around to confront whatever is following you.
To your horror, you see a pale-faced creature with black eyes staring back at you. It’s mouth is opened wide in a silent scream and its arms are outstretched as if it’s trying to grab hold of you.
You start to back away slowly, but the creature starts to move closer and closer until it’s right in front of you. It reaches out and grabs hold of your arm tightly, digging its nails into your skin. You cry out in pain and terror as the creature drags you into the darkness…
