Crystal Dreams 2 - View the inside of a cube through a magic block

The effect

There is a rotating cube on the screen. There is also a magic block that enables us to view inside the Cube. The block is a plane with a thickness that always cuts through the center of the Cube. The two shapes rotates around a fixed center point during the entire effect (although the view frustum movies up and beyond). There are some of the usual pixel dust on screen as well, that interacts with the alpha channel but besides that nothing special. The focus of my analysis is of course on the magic block itself.

why should imports be top level and not in the function body where the functions are used?

ChatGTP 4

There are several reasons why it is typically recommended to place import statements at the top of your Python files:

1. Readability and maintainability: Placing all imports at the top of the file makes it easy to see all of the file's dependencies in one place. This makes it easier to understand the context in which the code is running.

2. Performance: Importing a module has some overhead. If you import it inside a function that's called many times, you'll pay that overhead each time the function is called. In contrast, if you import the module at the top level, the import happens just once, no matter how many times functions in the module are called. Note that Python is smart enough not to reload the entire module each time it's imported, but there's still some overhead to checking whether the module needs to be updated.

Question 1: In Wayland Sway, how do I handle the bootup to login process?

Response 1: Sway is a window manager, not a display manager, and so doesn't handle the login process directly. You can start Sway directly from the console by typing sway, or automate this process by adding the start command to your shell's profile file. Alternatively, you can use a display manager that supports Wayland, such as GDM, SDDM, or Ly, which can be installed and enabled to start at boot using systemctl.

Question 2: Why would I like to use Void Linux?

Response 2: Void Linux is a rolling release, independent distribution. It uses runit as its init system, xbps as its package manager, and LibreSSL instead of OpenSSL. It offers glibc and musl libc variants, has a minimalist base install, supports non-free packages, and offers good documentation.
