Really just a technical note for myself. I thought I had written this down somewhere here, but I couldn't find it, so, here it is.
Converting png to a video in Linux:
ffmpeg -framerate 24 -pattern_type glob -i '*.png' -c:v libx264 -r 30 -pix_fmt yuv420p out.mp4

While deeply investing my time in the study of servers for the upcoming Server+ beta test, I took a few hours to relax and made this fun low poly man walking in the park. If you are interested, you can see the video I made of it here:
It sounds like some kind of desert problem, but QFIL is actually a tool that you can use to flash firmware on Qualcomm devices. I've made a YouTube video about using it as well as writing about it here on this site in the past. It's a really simple tool …

Today I've been working on my low-poly course again. This time the task was a floating island with a waterfall. I know I'm not the best artist, but I actually really like this one. I feel it has that calm, cartoon look that makes low-poly seem fun.
I think one …
As you can see, I'm still taking the low-poly course on Udemy. Today's lesson was all about sharp angles. To be honest, I'm not really sure if my ice landscape looks more like Antarctica or some form of moon scene.
