I didn't want to place a watermark so the image is seen better by everyone, but sometimes seeing reposts without credit doing way better that the original posts is a bit discouraging ngl, oh well.
Just a leap of faith 🤟
Readers added context they thought people might want to know

Not about choosing sides, just choosing to make music with my old friend. Praying for all of us. #HealMyFaith @KidRock distrokid.com/hyperfollow/ki…

“Not all who wander are lost.”
There may come a time when your adventurous ragamuffins will need to leave Weepstone, some for the first time in their lives.
We’ve been almost entirely focused on content for a couple months now. This is definitely the hardest part creatively, and simultaneously the most rewarding.

I am getting lots of incoming questions about the public execution of Nidal Hasan, mostly because I have been outspoken on wanting public executions for over a decade.
My position is simple: Executions should be public and brutal, not private and medicalized. They are the ultimate example of the state's monopoly on violence, and the only way to keep that from running out of control is to confront voters with the trade they have made every single time, that they might have appropiate confidence or revulsion in the institution.
This is not new thinking. George Washington thought the same. The way we have shifted from hanging to firing squads to doctors quietly injecting chemicals that send our worst gently off to sleep is awful and dystopian, a total short-circuiting of important feedback mechanisms. It makes needless executions more likely, not less so. People who demean this as barbaric or yucky miss the whole point. It doesn't somehow become torture or inhumane (as the UN is suddenly claiming) just because we decline to hide the act behind a curtain.
And then there are those who suggest any revel in the death of those who truly deserve it is an indicator of a broken or diseased mind. To the contrary. It is normal, good, and aligned with our natural and national order. That it has not been done here in 60 years is an indictment in and of itself.
And that is without even getting into the fact that men were not hung for stealing horse, but that horses may not be stolen.
"I would to God that one of the most attrocious in each State was hung in Gibbets, up on a gallows five times as high as the one prepared by Haman. No punishment, in my opinion, is too great for the Man, who can build his greatness upon his Country’s ruin."
- George Washington, 1778

After sharing my initial impressions live—and looking forward to diving deeper this week—I can assure you that @squadron_42 is going to make history. What happened today was incredible; congratulations @CloudImperium #StarCitizen

Why is the night sky dark if the universe is filled with stars?
This is the essence of Olbers’ paradox. If the universe were infinite, eternal, static, and uniformly filled with stars, every direction we looked should eventually end at a star, making the entire sky as bright as a stellar surface.
But the universe has a finite age, and it is expanding.
Light from extremely distant stars and galaxies has not had enough time to reach us. And as the universe expands, that ancient light is redshifted to longer wavelengths, often far beyond what human eyes can see.
So the darkness of the night sky isn’t simply empty space.
It is a reminder that we are seeing a universe with a finite history, and that much of its light is still traveling toward us. 🌌

👏 HILO: Todo lo que dice el video sobre el origen dominicano que SÍ es historia real 🧵
1/9 - El nombre "Taíno"
Taíno no era el nombre de su tribu. Ellos eran parte de la familia Arawaka. "Taíno" en su lengua significaba "bueno, noble, amigo". Cuando los españoles preguntaban, ellos respondían "taíno taíno" y se quedó como etiqueta.
2/9 - No solo había taínos en la isla
Antes que los taínos, la isla estaba habitada por otros grupos. La arqueología los identifica como Arcaicos, Ciguayos y Macoríes. Los más antiguos aparecen en Samaná y el norte hace unos 4,000-6,000 años. Los taínos llegaron después.
3/9 - No nacimos de una mata de yuca
El poblamiento de América es por migración. Estudios genéticos y paleoantropológicos confirman que los humanos cruzaron de Asia por el estrecho de Bering hace 15,000-20,000 años y llegaron al Caribe en canoas desde Suramérica. No somos originarios de aquí.
4/9 - Duarte era criollo
Juan Pablo Duarte nace en 1813 cuando Santo Domingo era colonia española. Jurídicamente era súbdito español, pero criollo. Los criollos, mestizos libres y blancos de la tierra tenían derechos legales. No nacían esclavos. La esclavitud era otro estatus jurídico.
5/9 - La primera ciudad de América está aquí
La Isabela fue fundada por Colón en 1493 en el norte. Fracasó y en 1498 se funda Santo Domingo. Es la primera ciudad europea permanente en América. No es un mito, es registro histórico.
6/9 - La primera universidad de América
Real y Pontificia Universidad Santo Tomás de Aquino, fundada por bula papal en 1538 en Santo Domingo. Hoy UASD. Anterior a Harvard y a cualquier otra del continente.
7/9 - El Sermón que cambió las leyes del Imperio
El 21 de diciembre de 1511, Fray Antonio de Montesinos lanza el Sermón de Adviento en Santo Domingo. Denuncia: "¿Estos no son hombres?". Fue la primera denuncia de derechos humanos en América.
8/9 - De ese sermón nacen las leyes de protección
Ese sermón provoca:
- Leyes de Burgos 1512
- Leyes Nuevas 1542
- Recopilación de Leyes de los Reynos de las Indias 1680: 9 tomos, más de 6,000 leyes que prohibían la esclavitud indígena, reconocían que eran súbditos libres de la Corona y regulaban su trato. Que no siempre se cumplieran es otra cosa, pero existieron.
9/9 - ¿Y la genética dominicana?
Estudios de ADN promedio en RD: ∼50-60% europeo, ∼30-40% africano y ∼6-10% indígena. Somos una mezcla criolla desde el siglo XVI. Decir "soy 100% taíno" hoy es biológicamente imposible. Somos el resultado de esa fusión, no de una sola raíz.

And here is the first viewport test render!!!
There is still so much to do and detail on this truck, but I got the drive controller set up and just couldn't help myself. I think I might have dampen the wheels too much, they look a bit flat, but still, so very excited.
Also wonder now how long this 1250 frame render like this would actually take...
