Open Source Fueled The Oscar-Winning 'Flow'
A great achievement pulled off using open source software!Community (It's FOSS News)
i love blender but that did not look like it used cycles, but evee - I'm not even really sure what they would get out of using cycles for such a non pbr look they used during the film
i enjoyed Flow but surprised it won an award tbh, the animation was basic for 2025 with a lot of things, like the water for instance not being simulated or rendered particularly accurately or in a stylized manner

Lawyer by day, dinosaur by night: Meet the man who keeps Dolores Park weird
On a summery, 70-degree day at Dolores Park, Trevor Mead walked out of his apartment at 20th and Dolores streets at about 6 p.m. and started making a lap around the park.
But heโs not just any pedestrian. A data privacy lawyer during the day, in the evening, Mead slips into his 6-foot-tall, 7-foot-long illuminated dinosaur costume, turning Dolores Park into Jurassic Park. โThis is how I deal with my day, with my life choices that led me to become a lawyer,โ he said jokingly.
In his dinosaur costume, his (big, reptilian) legs stomped comically on the ground with every step he took. The dinosaur, named Doloresaurus, radiates blue light around its contour, against the pink sky, moments after sunset...

Hi @Michael ๐บ๐ฆ ,
thank you for your quick view at my log-excerpts.
So i will give Uberspace-support a try.
Anyway during the last weeks i noticed lots of reports related to high load and database-problems.
From time to time i had to call dica.interfel.de twice to get an answer. These days libranet.de always needs two or three calls to get any result.
@Michael ๐บ๐ฆ You've been right and it's up again now.
What about this
DB Error {"code":1062,"error":"Duplicate entry 'fedibikes_de-a.gup.pe/u/fedibikes_de'...

It looks like my instance is looking for an account, i am not following, and creates a DB-Error several times a day.
Muskโs #DOGE purge is causing more harm than the #firings -that needlessly upend lives, theyโre devastating communities & reducing the GDP.
โFor every $1 spent by the Parks, they produce $15 in economic activity. Itโs <0.067% of all fed spending.
Parks have a huge economic multiplier. They create platforms for substantial pvt sector activity (tourism, REC busโโฆ) while preserving public assets that appreciate in value over time -an incredible investment for the economy.โ

Fun fact: โUpdate and shut downโ is a lie. What it does it: Update, reboot, update some more, shut down.
Unfortunately, on my machine the reboot means booting to Linux (unless I interrupt it). So when I try to shut it down and come back later, I have a fully booted Linux machine in the room. When I shut it down and boot Windows again after some time, it boots and immediately shuts down again.
And yes, Update and Shut Down has always led to the 'Restarting...' screen since the start of windows 10. They never fixed that.
