A dev's life

So much to learn, so little time.

In the picture (it's an animation) the jet ski tracks are painted dynamically as the jets move.
Not a big deal, but if you have never used dynamic painting before, it will take you an hour or two to get it looking good.

But I had fun doing it and I learned another Blender feature ;)
Daz is killing me with special offers, I spent a few hundred dollars in the last 2 weeks.
At least my wishlist is down to under 500 entries now.

4090 prices are stable.
With the side project my 3090TI is rendering 20 hours a day, a 4090 would be nice, but not at these prices.

On the PV side, I've saved almost half a MW or $190 since March.
Not as much as I predicted, but the last two months have been really bad.
As I've ordered new panels (440Wp glass/glass instead of 375Wp) the ROI will be a few months later, but still in the first two or three years.

Have a good week,

Thanks for your support,
