The new #KSP2 trailer was inspired by the #BuildFlyDream fan video from @TehGimp. Congrats!

I really like Minecraft with raytracing. Like the Q2RTX renderer, both of these show much more bang for the buck than adding some fancy reflections into an already nice looking rendered image.

"DeepLight: Learning Illumination for Unconstrained Mobile Mixed Reality"

Interesting way to generate environment maps for #AugmentedReality reflection probes from the camera's limited input image.

Instagram is a horrible platform, running horrible and slow code, preventing you from saving pictures easily. Yet, ESA and NASA post pretty pictures over there and you just want to see them. What do?

I know, let's never go there again and use RSS: instatom.freelancis.net/nasa twitter.com/thefranke/stat…
