I’ll never stop being amused by the lengths people go to avoid writing a tiny bit of SQL.
I was always under the impression that was more due to pleroma’s schema not postgres itself.
LMDB does look interesting though…
Do you know what the motivation for this over just-using-postgres was? I’m confident you can beat postgres if you’re careful and thoughtful, but I’m also reasonably confident rolling your own system like this is at minimum going to be brittle, and probably have at least as many performance pitfalls at the end of the day.
I’ve held off on watching it cause of the weird stuff, but I’m always drawn to media about exploring something mysterious and dangerous (the zone, the abyss, the ocean, space, etc). If the weird stuff stays unobtrusive I might have to check it out.
The fuck you doin in there dude? 😂

They look like 200-250W and you’ll get them probably for less than $50 a piece.
Thanks!
If I’ve got a 100W load (12V DC, no inverters just its own power regulator, this is an estimate but ballpark) and want to charge a battery for night running as long as possible, would a single 250W panel do or do? There’s obviously multiple reasons it needs to be bigger than the nominal wattage of the load
inefficiency (panel inefficiency, actual sun conditions, battery charger/regulator inefficiency)
battery charging during the day
Are there calculators to estimate this sort of thing?
Do you remember what they cost and their wattage? I’ve been thinking about scoring some “cheap” panels for a couple purposes.

I’m willing to bet you’re right and it is the projection, but tbh I have no idea what these glm::ortho() values should be. Right now I’ve got:
glm::mat4 lightProjection = glm::ortho(-1000.0f, 1000.0f, -1000.0f, 1000.0f, 0.0f, 5000.0f);
which should give me a VERY big projection, but that seems necessary since the sun is far away
and
light_view = glm::lookAt(Sun::dir * 900.0f,
glm::vec3(0.0f,0.0f,0.0f),
glm::vec3(0.0f,1.0f,0.0f));
which should give me a view matrix roughly where the sun is currently located, looking in the direction of the center of the map.
do either of those look totally whack?
sorry fighting fires at work
nostr:npub16sz45sngz7k7ha48c9gekuaxc6gntujtynsfukdx6807m6lv7z5sgw378f I'm coloring the shadows red and the results make NO sense to me. They're receding as the sun goes up but they're going the wrong way
have you tried peeking at the shadow map to see if it looks plausible? If I was going to guess I’d say you’re projecting it wrong though.
it really is her

I’m about to make a million dollars

rats and cockroaches, but cute
😂 😂 😂
I wonder how truth social boomers would respond to that
