Probably not, there is an impressive interactive 3D point cloud rendering, which only shows up after a few seconds. Perhaps you missed that?

  How many seconds? I see a discord button, and then some weird blob thing wobbling around. After 30 seconds I got bored of watching it.

    In that case you didn't miss anything. Weird wobbling blob thing is the "impressive interactive 3D point cloud".

      You should be able to see the blob form models – perhaps there's some error when it runs on your system. It relies on floating-point textures which aren't supported everywhere If you view this link https://lumalabs.ai/genie?s=1&d=-4 https://lumalabs.ai/genie?s=1&d=-4, do you see the models more clearly? If you _don't_ I'd be curious if any errors are reported in console

        Yes with s=1?d=-4 the models are completely clear. I assume the semitransparent glittery look is intentional artistic choice."weird blob" weren't my words but I can imagine how someone could describe it that way considering that half of the time you see the transition animation during which it's much harder to recognize the object.

    30 seconds is a lot of time to stare at one thing. It sounds to me like it entranced you just as much as it did the others. How long would you expect a single graphic to hold your attention before you can deem it impressive? Five minutes?

It's not, I was referring to the interactive 3D author explained.

  Judging from other comments, it seems I'm not the only one who didn't get to experience that - perhaps I just didn't wait long enough for that to show up? In good hackernews style, I got downvoted into oblivion for just a simple question, but I guess that's to be expected these days.

    Interesting that nothing appears for you, we should aim to show a placeholder instead in this case Do you get any errors in the js console? Are you on Destop or phone?

      Firefox on Windows, but I used a pretty old machine - so perhaps it was just a matter of not having waited long enough?!

    Understandable, there is a bit of delay to start and yeah it is the main thing that stands out.
