It would be hilarious (by which I mean really sad) if the thing that convinces companies to actually care about accessibility on the web is trying really hard to accommodate LLMs, which will lie about the contents of your page anyway, and accidentally making it more accessible for humans in the process.
Beat "Ball X Pit", fun little game!
The thing that I kept thinking as I was playing it was "this must have been a blast to develop!" The core game mechanics are pretty simple so most of the time (I hope) could be spent on "Let's give all the balls and characters fun behaviors and interactions!"
Chrome 144 includes the start of a slow rollout of WebGPU support on Linux! Intel Gen 12+ only for the moment, but expected to expand. https://developer.chrome.com/blog/new-in-webgpu-144
I just removed a GPU from a machine, and when I went to put it in the storage box that I had for it, I discovered it already contained another GPU of the same model (different manufacturer).
I have no idea where that second GPU came from. 😰
Every Vulkan tutorial: It's 202X! You don't have to suffer anymore! Go all in on modern Vulkan with conveniences like dynamic rendering, bindless resources, and pipeline libraries!

Vulkan: Oh, no. Not for you. You get all the suffering.
Why can't good tools just be satisfied with being good tools? I had a subscription for Kinemaster, because it was a reasonably full-featured video editor for Android and it was easy enough that my son was learning how to edit videos with it.
Then I find out that because apparently everything has copy TikTok they added a vertical video feed (to a *video editing tool*) and my kid was using that as a workaround for parental controls I had blocking those kind of apps. 🤬

Add to the below that the power has been out in my area for ~3 hours, but because it was a sunny day we only noticed a slight flicker in the lights! Love it!
Also, the quoted post was easily my most popular Mastodon post so far. A whole lotta people are curious about solar, which is cool!
