Putting some new beers in the fridge, I notice that the fresh ones have higher roughness value … Too much 3D this week
I had to ask chatGPT what you mean
ChatGPT
The user makes a humorous comment here about his intensive involvement with 3D rendering.
Explanation:
In 3D graphics software, there is a material property called roughness, which determines how smooth or matt a surface appears. A high roughness means that the surface is less reflective and appears more matte.
The joke:
When putting beer bottles in the fridge, the user notices that the fresher (cold) bottles have a higher roughness - which in reality can be caused by condensation and a matt surface. Since he has obviously been working intensively on 3D modeling all week, he thinks in render terms and sees the real bottles as a 3D object with a different material value.
The punchline:
He himself recognizes that he has immersed himself too deeply in the 3D world because he is looking at real phenomena through “rendering glasses”. This makes the commentary particularly funny.
It is not so funny anymore once the transparency values go up
