Based on a stupid discussion I had, I present to you: The Shader Alignment Chart!

show/hide sensitive content

A 3x3 alignment chart labelled "Shader Alignment Chart", one axis being "medium" and the other "purpose". Each alignment field contains a thing that would under that combination be considered a shader, with an image visualizing it.

The axis descriptions for "medium" read:
Purist: Shaders must be part of the GPU pipeline.
Neutral: Shaders are software.
Rebel: Shaders can be anything.

The axis decriptions for "purpose" read:
Purist: Shaders modify visible representation.
Neutral: Shaders modify data representation.
Rebel: Shaders change things.

The fields on the "purpose purist" row are:
Medium purist: a fragment shader is a shader.
Medium neutral: Gimp is a shader.
Medium rebel: A coloured lens is a shader.

The fields on the "purpose neutral" row are:
Medium purist: OpenCL is a shader.
Medium neutral: LibreOffice Calc is a shader.
Medium rebel: A book is a shader.

The fields on the "purpose rebel" row are:
Medium purist: A transistor is a shader.
Medium neutral: A calculator is a shader.
Medium rebel: A hammer is a shader.

Selecting a Fediverse instance or software to run be like

A road crossing that says “TURN RUEAT” with arrows pointing to right and left. Two signals indicate you must turn right. Another signal forbids turning right.

Stop hating on lazy people. We didn't even do anything.

i finally started working on customizing my #MicroblogPub instance. right now only the color scheme has been changed from the default one through CSS and i already like how it turned out. hopefully i can keep the momentum and change some layouts as well. one thing i'd really like to do is to separate articles and notes into two columns on the homepage (similar to ash's instance -- check it out by the way, it's fantastic!) as i'd like to make my future definitely-not-terrible articles stand out when someone arrives on my page .
