I'm curious how you got the energy consumption for 8 hours of use. I would imagine there's a huge spread there too. Depending on hardware, size of the model, requests being batched and queued rather than occupying a…
I think initiatives for forge federation are trying to do too much. When running a forge for a project, I'd don't want to be dealing with spam or large amounts of data from other instances. And people should be able to…
Yes, a big problem is indeed API documentation and making it easier to follow best practices. Regarding angles, users want to see degrees in the UI, but the python functions like math.sin and math.cos and basically any…
Blender 2.5 has changed the UI significantly from the original commercial version, and most comments I read about it say that it has improved significantly. Blender the open source project has changed and grown so much…
The mouse focus issue is more related to missing APIs. If you call operators (tools) from Python they do indeed depend on context, just like they would if you use them from a toolbar, menu or shortcut key. These are not…
I agree it's possible to do better than forward path tracing, but a big part of why nearly everyone switched to it was that it significantly reduces artist time, is a lot less painful and requires fewer hacks than the…
For a fair comparison we should compare PRMan's RIS with Cycles though, not REYES. RIS is what Pixar are focusing on and rendering their movies with now. Yes, REYES is great at subpixel shading, rendering fast motion…
I think this misses the point, if someone doesn't understand open source etiquette then I would give them a friendly reply. Even if it was mentioned somewhere in the documentation, I understand that people can miss it.…
