my actual take on the blender discourse

like I'd rather take money from an AI company than none at all, especially if they agree to the terms that I decide what to do with it. it's mine and I can go make the thing better while paying the bills

my actual take on the blender discourse

so like. anthropic donated to support the development of blender but it's absolutely clear that they have no actual control over decision making or anything else beyond pulling their funds. blender is just taking the money and using it for whatever they want to. honestly blender is FOSS and has an extension system anyway, someone's probably manually shoved generative AI in there anyway because they can do whatever they want with the software

there are a lot more issues than just this but the whole 11ty -> build awesome rebrand just kind of sucks. the original was quirky but memorable. "build awesome" is what a millennial from 2011 participating in movember while listening to mumford and sons and posting filtered selfies on instagram would come up with

I think everyone's running around with their heads cut off due to Google trying to enforce their ridiculous verification policy but if we ever get past that then Obtainium should allow me to set a specific time each day to check for updates instead of me having to fiddle with a slider and hope that it's exactly one day apart instead of one day and three hours
