Made a #GeometryNodes parametric star generator for #blender. Took a bit of #maths to work out how to calculate the inner radius to get regular star shapes for stars of any number of points, that was a bit of a brain massage late in the afternoon.
The quest to turn Blender into a #MotionGraphics program continues.

Naming their 'Blockchain' games like 'UndeadBlocks' cause yeah..

I also play World of SQL and MongoDB Unlimited

I can't believe it:

A boy cheated his ex gf time ago and now he wants her back, but she said she won't forgive his cheating.
Then he begs to understand why cheated her: she was really ugly before and since she is very beautiful today, now she realizes what he did...

Damn that jerk... he shouldn't say such words 🤣🤣🤣🖕

GrapheneOS App Store now includes a mirror of Accrescent, which is a privacy and security focused alternative to the Play Store distributing developer builds of apps:

https://accrescent.app/

Accrescent comes from within the GrapheneOS community and we're collaborating together.

Accrescent is in alpha and isn't yet open to any developers uploading their apps. It will have a lot more apps available in the future. It will become a full alternative to Play Store permitting closed source apps too, but you'll be able to filter to show only open source apps.

#SVG created with #Blender Grease Pencil and exported with leomoon-bezier2svg, after decimate it.
STEP :
Use a mesh wire for stroke with SubD and #lineArt #modifier to get a real time Greasepencil stroke, then convert LineArt into a Bézier curve and decimate it around 0.1 to clean up it. #b3d #Blender #inkscape

It turns out Google Chrome ships a default, hidden extension that allows code on `*.google.com` access to private APIs, including your current CPU usage

You can test it out by pasting the following into your Chrome DevTools console on any Google page:

chrome.runtime.sendMessage(
"nkeimhogjdpnpccoofpliimaahmaaome",
{ method: "cpu.getInfo" },
(response) => {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response, null, 2));
},
);

@astro_jcm Already 5 years ???

I also remember it like it was yesterday. Probably on of my busiest observing run on HARPS. I was the observer the night before and participating in the live stream the TSE day. I slept only 3 hours.

But the result was just AWESOME (my first TSE !), although I was expecting it to be more dark.

My own video of it:

This solar #eclipse happened 5 years ago today, but my memories of it are as vivid as if it had been yesterday. I lived in #Chile back then, so I hopped to ESO's La Silla observatory, which was in the path of totality.

This was my second total solar eclipse, but the fact that we were at high elevation made it unique, as we could see the shadow of the #Moon coming towards us from the Pacific Ocean. My humble pic below doesn't make it justice!

Unique, twisting dust lanes are prominent in this Hubble image—an edge-on view of lenticular galaxy NGC 4753. That dust likely was pulled in during a merger with a dwarf galaxy more than 1 billion years ago. Credit: NASA, ESA, and L. Kelsey.
