⚠️ THIS PROTOTYPE WAS NEVER SUPPOSED TO LEAK, HERE’S... WHY ▹ The body shape here isn’t random, long limbs and a low center of mass give better stability on uneven ground than any humanoid build. Engineers trade looks for physics when a platform is still at the test-floor stage, not the stage demo stage. ▹ Exposed wiring and unfinished paneling is the normal state of any prototype, not a sign something’s broken. Companies hide footage like this precisely because a half-assembled creature look spooks investors more than any actual technical issue. ▹ When the working version looks like something out of a horror film instead of a promo reel, it means the team is still solving movement problems, not marketing problems. That’s a normal stage, nobody’s just ready to show it to a wide audience yet.show more

Meanwhile God of War on a last gen system... had more effort put into the Fast Travel rooms(not even an actual stage) than the whole entirety of the effort put into Metroid Prime 4 when it comes to graphics. Just because it's not a Stage Doesn't mean it has to look like Dogshit. 🤡🫵show more

This is what half the country sees when they... look at Mamdani. Not a “progressive.” Not a “fresh face.” A man who soft-pedals the enemies of this country standing over the names of Americans who burned alive on 9/11. Never Forget was supposed to mean something. Not photo-ops for people who treat America’s dead like a backdrop. You don’t get to lay flowers on the graves of the people your ideology cheers against… and call it healing. Get him away from that wall. Ground Zero is sacred ground. Not a stage for America-haters.show more

THIS IS HOW THE NIGHTMARE ACTUALLY LOOKS. Not a... lab. Not a stage demo. A camera rig standing on spider legs in an abandoned field, staring at empty houses. No operator in frame. No cage. Just legs, optics, and antennas pointed at nothing — until it decides to move. Sci-fi got the shape wrong. The scary version was never going to look human. It was going to look like equipment. Give a camera legs and autonomy, and it stops being a camera. It becomes a presence. We spent years imagining robots that look like us. The ones actually being built right now don't need to.show more

What is the correct way to fix this normal... issue? Using world-projection to tile a normal map. However, when I rotate the OBJECT you can see the highlight on the normal map rotate also, this is not correct, as the light is not moving, but it looks like it is! Halp #unrealengineshow more

Abhijeet Dipke is such a liar and a fraud.... This morning, when the police took Sonam Wangchuk away, he was shouting into the mic, saying, "From now on, this stage will remain empty until Sonam returns to this very stage." Now, he's the one going to sleep on that same stage tonight. It seems he's not used to sleeping on the ground, so he's arranged a mattress on the stage for himself. Just like Kejriwal, this man changes his stand every single day.show more

46 AXES. A FULL-BODY TOUCH SYSTEM. THIS HUMANOID IS... BUILT TO FEEL CONTACT, NOT JUST COPY MOVEMENT! Watch the arms rise. The movement looks simple, but the interesting part is what sits behind it: a human-shaped machine designed around more than walking or waving. Vita Robotics says its bionic humanoid uses a 46-axis motion architecture, split into 23 axes in the body and 23 in the head, giving it a much wider range of movement than a basic display robot. The company also describes a full-body flexible tactile skin system, designed to detect touch and trigger physical responses. That changes the idea of what a humanoid is supposed to do: instead of only executing a programmed gesture, it is being built to react when a person interacts with it. And that is the bigger race in robotics. Making a machine move is one challenge; making it move naturally, respond to contact and behave consistently around people is another. 46 axes are not just a spec sheet. They are 46 ways for a machine to become more expressive, more responsive and harder to distinguish from a static prop.show more

The E46 M3 GTR exists because BMW Motorsport needed... an engine that did not exist. The P60B40 V8 was developed specifically to homologate the car for racing, and it never appeared in any other BMW road model. It was compact, lightweight and built for sustained high-rpm use rather than everyday refinement. This engine was not a variant of something else. It was a purpose-built solution to a single problem, to BEAT PORSCHE. That is why it disappeared once the problem disappeared. The GTR did not create a new direction for BMW. It marked a moment when the brand allowed motorsport to override normal product logic completely.show more

CITY PARK, A K9 UNIT, 0 HESITATION IN FRONT... OF METAL ON A PUBLIC STREET ▹ Dogs are trained to read threat through scent and sudden movement, not appearance. That’s why a service dog reacts to a humanoid the same way it would to any moving object with an unpredictable trajectory, there’s no built in fear of the shape. ▹ Sending humanoids into public space without a controlled perimeter is a safety protocol question now, not a PR stunt. Dogs, kids, cyclists on the same path are variables no lab demo scenario ever accounts for. ▹ The animal’s reaction here says more than any engineering presentation could. The dog field tests the machine by touch faster than the marketing department can draft an official comment.show more

GTA 6 on Switch 2 is a business problem,... not a hardware problem. The Definitive Edition already proved Nintendo players will buy GTA. That’s not the issue. The issue is whether Rockstar wants to ship a compromised Leonida when the same fan will just buy a PS5. A former designer who worked on the game until 2020 said that out loud to Kiwi Talkz. Weaker port, same audience, not worth it. Phone or cloud sounded more realistic to him than Nintendo. That’s his take, not a Rockstar announcement. People keep pointing at the Trilogy on Switch like it settles this. It doesn’t. That was old games. Leonida is a different size of problem. My opinion is that PC shows up next year. Switch 2 will never come out. And we’ll still be fighting about it in 2028. Would you take a cut-down handheld version, or skip it?show more

The day AI can build shots like this from... a rough prompt, half of the Blender flexing on this app is over. This is not just “a cool spaceship.” It is camera movement, scale, motion, lighting, materials, composition, and enough tiny decisions to normally eat hours or days of actual work. That is why clips like this are so interesting. They make you stop asking whether AI can generate pretty images and start asking when it will be able to handle a full cinematic workflow inside a real 3D scene. Not just spit out one lucky frame, but actually block out the ship, place the cameras, shape the materials, animate the motion, inspect what looks wrong, and keep iterating until the shot feels intentional. We are probably closer to that moment than most people want to admit. And when it really clicks, “I made this in Blender” might start meaning “I directed it,” not “I manually suffered through every step.”show more

🚨Don’t stop talking about Iran. New footage just came... out from Kermanshah showing what really happened on January 8. You can hear it clearly. Non stop gunfire. It does not pause. It does not slow down. It sounds like a battlefield because it was a battlefield. The regime was at war with its own people. Forces of the Islamic Republic were firing relentlessly into the streets. Not warning shots. Not crowd control. Just constant shooting at civilians. And here is what the world needs to understand. In just two days the Islamic Republic slaughtered more than forty thousand Iranians. Forty thousand human beings in forty eight hours. This is not unrest. This is not clashes. This is mass killing. If you are outside Iran and still think this is just politics, wake up. A regime that opens fire like this and massacres tens of thousands in two days is not a normal government. It is a killing machine. Do not look away. Silence is exactly what they want.show more
