AngeTheGreat on YouTube is pretty famous for having written a car engine simulator purely for simulating the sound that they make - https://youtu.be/RKT-sKtR970 is a good launching point

How can I get free or cheap artwork for a project if I can't draw and don't want to use AI? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Can you help me understand what you mean by “ Unless you're autistic, like me, 5 days is possible”? Are you saying you think you can’t learn to draw in that time frame because of your autism?

What do you guys think about FreeBSD? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I use FreeBSD for my website and I’m actually pretty happy with it, the simplicity is a strong selling point.

It does feel sometimes like the documentation is written with a lot of assumed knowledge though, which makes it difficult to know what terms to use to find what you’re looking for… e.g. figuring out how to do major version upgrades did not feel straightforward.
