Sure thing! So glad I could be helpful! :D

I don't blame you. It's the only thing I'm keeping a Win10 dual-boot for right now, and to their credit, it does work quite well in Windows. We've had a ton of fun with our set.

In the meantime, I'm keeping up with the project but not actively tinkering with it myself, because it's exciting but also not quite there yet. It's at least given me hope that it can be done though! I'm confident we'll see significant gains sooner rather than later. Hats off to them. (Once my income stabilizes I'll gotta pitch them some funds...)

Envision has made it VERY convenient to get set up, but the whole process still saps more time than "Fire it up and play." So maybe play with it at some point, but either way definitely keep your ear to the ground. :)

I'm hoping in the future we'll get to use it for things like Godot XR or Blender integration. :D

Ah I see, yeah you're right!

That is something that occurs to me too. It's weird to me now, imagining couples separating to go to work or whatever, and you just gotta believe everything is gonna be fine, and if there were an emergency, someone has to be near the right landline.

Although I grew up with earlier cellphones and pagers, I got my first cell way later than a lot of highschool kids.

But yes, definitely, If me and my wife couldn't reach each other during the day, that'd be a ton of anxiety! The world's too insane these days to not have rapid communication on hand.

I only wish technology evolved as a tool for the user and the people, rather than primarily as content consumption and surveillance devices.

Then it would be more normal to have a setup like we do: We chat on Signal and can send our location voluntarily and it stays between us, without a dozen third parties quietly listening in, analyzing, and selling that information.

I do however, think there would also be a certain serene peace in being unreachable by undesirable contacts but not by loved ones.

For example, it's dystopian how non-emergency jobs evolved to expect that they can just zip a message to you whenever they feel like, and you're almost coerced to receive it and respond, and setting boundaries against that can be risky. It brings an unwanted cop or nanny into our personal lives.

And cheers to you for mentioning that 2018 Substance is still useful!

...Yikes, I hope I kept that license key somewhere, I'm sure I did...

If only to learn it because it seems to be a hard requirement with so many artist positions. =\

(Although...if we really blew them away with Blender tools and they couldn't tell the difference, would they really care? Hm...)

Well, I’ve got 99 opportunities to succeed...

...but management ain't one!

Sounds like he could be the next Ash Williams who works on over in housewares at S-Mart!

It's so weird seeing the reaction they're having to this noxious...erm..."dish."

Weird because I guess I've been blessed enough to have very few memories of smelling something so bad it made me actually want to vomit. Like it's hard to relate to and yet terrifying imagining how bad it must be.

When I saw someone comment something like "That is an aggressively country child." I laughed so hard lol

We reference this all the time now. It's a permanent memory artifact. XD

"Ah, Moses but a pirate." Is not something I was planning on thinking today LOL
