I briefly worked with 3dGO on a Silicon Graphics Personal Iris 4D/35 Turbo around 1993 or 1994. Its boolean functions really stood out, but the renderer was cumbersome. Everything looked like dull plastic.

Hi! I've been looking forever for this video, thanks a lot! Little question though, do you also have access to the audiotapes for the book? I've been looking for them for a while too with no success.

3D is just more fun back then, things were just a little bit off, it was "fun", now I am using Blender and everything looks SO GOOD and Realistic by default, everything just looks like a photo and it is everything we have been trying to achieve served to us on a plate with little to no effort, I will always be appreciative of that. But still...retro CGI looks so FUN!!! Looking at the video again....gosh everything took so long to render back then to get those terrible CGI quality, but it is so terrible that it is good now, ha ha ha, now Blender can achieve all that in real time with more than ten times the quality [Real Time Global Illumination, Real Time Reflection, Real Time Subsurface Scattering, Real Time sheen, fresnel and clear coat based on on actual environmental reflections, etc... That's it, I am going back to old CGI, it looks so terrible I love it!

Though, the "table of contents" wasn't exactly accurate, so I had to adjust them a bit by hand.

the best comeback to the woke

Toward the end there was an Intel/Linux version but it closed down soon after that.

Of course it's really the theme to "The Motion Picture" since TNG was over 4 years in the future of April Fool's 1983 since that show hit on September 28th, 1987.

6:12 is where the SpongeBob music comes from!

The youtube algorithm seems to be recommending a bunch of amiga animations

POV: you encountered Linus Torvalds in the backrooms

Was that Ned Flanders?

itt: zoomers bragging about not existing when this was taped

I fully expected a jump scare, thanks to those analog horror videos

I don't know if this is my favorite moment,or Worf saying, I am NOT a merry man!

Thanks to this man (and Stallman) we can have our freedom today.

Sam Hyde before TRT

Why does he look like a mustache less Adolf Hitler.

80s to early 2000s. The best decades human kind have gone through. Unforgettable, unbeatable times.

god bless Sam Hyde

Ремонтяш выглядит прекрасно

Sam Hyde pretending to be Bill Gates

looks like the NA*I officers from movies

What is turbo Linux?

Damn, 5 years before i was even born. This man is a legend.

Linus doing the trollface way before trollface was invented.

I worked for Creative Computers (Centaur) back then. It was pretty heady days for the 3D industry. There was a definite sense of community between all the computer nerds and the guys working in 3D at large companies getting systems they could actually produce stuff with at home. Between Imagine and the Video Toaster for Lightwave, a lot of early pros bought a lot of Amigas. I interned at Symbolics at night while I was working for Creative and eventually moved into full time CG work along with a lot of my contempraries. Oh, and I designed the packaging for this video.

Yea ... suvenier.... A Q KILLER THIS IS! Also great edit there XD

These players shouldn’t be talking shit since they got blown out 42-0. That kind of thing is for winners.

Computer: Warning, unknown energy discharge on deck 10 - interior hull has been breached.

This episode always bugged me. This environment is a recreation from a book to house a human. Ok, understandable. Now for someone play poker, craps, slotts etc in a casino and win then the full understanding of the games including the rules would have to be laid out in detail in the book otherwise the games would be gibberish to them. The only possible way they could recreate with all the games intact with rules would be from scans of the human's brain that would have to already had a full understanding of the games and rules.
