Re:Virtual Art Museum Built with Three.js
on Monday November 02, 2026 @10:53AM (#50338577)
My wife wanted a website for her artworks. While building the website, I suddenly had this urge to try building a virtual art museum to give her motivation. It turned out not bad. Put the rain mode on if you like cats btw.
I'm still trying to optimize the performance as I'm having random fps-drops on Android devices.
Let me know if you notice any bugs as this project is still in early build. It works best on PCs although tablets and smart phones are also good to go. I'm open to ideas to make it more beautiful.

It does not require me to login. I am from Japan tho. Maybe this requirement is kind of European freedom stuff lol.

Made with Hugo and hosted on SourceHut. I am not a developer but I can call myself tech-savvy I guess. I love to tinker on my blog a lot; inspire from and discover other blogs.

Is it only me who feels overwhelmed by the speed and amount of tech? How are juniors(especially self-taught ones) supposed to catch up?

Ask HN: Creative pages that is lightweight, simple with no trackings/no ads
I've been into lightweight, privacy friendly pages recently. Can you share simple but effective websites? I'm looking into some inspirations.Sometimes I jump around https://1mb.club/ and https://1kb.club/ . There are some nice gems among them.

>all of society is based on the premise of building it when it didn't exist yet. Just the same we can create our belonging, and that's the scary part.
I definitely agree with this. I love process of creating, forming something. After it is created, it loses all its charm and becomes something to get rid of.

If I don't care about being "myself", I can easily plug into or create community. It is not about ability to be honest. I want it but when I have it I want to get rid of it quickly.
If I ever could stay somewhere long enough to take a root, I probably would be a completely different person. I feel both glad and sad for the life I lived.

I'm not sure if it is something to be wrong or right. Maybe it is just a different color, perspective. Because it also has pros as well.

Hey Dijit,
Thank you for your words. Finding external groups that transcend physical proximity is definitely a thing. Sometimes I find and meet good people on the internet or IRL. But making, maintaining and growing a friendship feels too much of a hassle. I don't know if it is because of my past experiences mentioned in my article or not but this what it is unfortunately.
It is not that I can't get along with people. People around me really like me actually. They always try to have a chat with me or invite me to somewhere. Although I really love having beautiful conversations, my social battery is so weak. 30 mins at max and then I want to stay alone with myself.
You are right about superpower. I fit in most places without problem. Is is just I don't feel belong there. I got what you mean overall, though. I appreciate your beautiful words.
How do you cope with the feeling of belonging nowhere?

My first blog. Mostly writing about inner thoughts, my coding journey, politics and translation related stuff. The blog platform is privacy friendly, fast and unbloated. So the medium is minimal, which reflects my emotions too.

Well, maybe definition of dictatorship is wider than we think. There is a one-man regime in Turkey currently and he can just do whatever he pleases thanks to the regime he created. Turkish public opinion calls it a dictatorship.

The alternative is right now is Kemal Kilicdaroglu. He is social democrat and his party, CHP, values in power of law, education, secularism, freedom, art, tech. They will ensure the transition from a one-man regime to a parliamentary system and restore democracy, separation of powers.

Well, the opposition fought against all fraud and rigging and won elections in major cities in last elections and it became hope for everyone as it happened for the first time in 20 years.

I live in Turkey and expertise in Japanese translation. Tho, I'm self-studying web development via The Odin Project. But my progress is quite slow due to my work-life balance.
I haven't heard of $CORPO_OVERLORD before, tho. What kind company is it?

I'm already spending time with my wife. I didn't create that list in a particular order. We have a quite supportive relationship and I'm quite thankful for it. Maybe I might have sounded over-depressed in the article.
