One day I'll genuinely wonder if I didn't imagine those things.

I think it depends if you're in Australia.

Today sucked. I speedran all three triggers at employee evaluation. So this was a momentous read... but it would have been even more momentous if I had read it before the meeting. I should spend more time on Lemmy at work.

Clockwise or counterclockwise?

Start small. Like, really small. Don't listen to the elitism about programming languages. Make stuff, fuss about the details later. Godot's cool. Love2D's cool. Nobody gives a fuck if you used a scripting language or an enterprise grade engine or if you wrote it in assembly like some cybermonk. Balatro was nominated for goty and was written in a "simplistic" scripting language (Lua with Love2D).

Stop Killing Games is about online components, relevant or not to the core gameplay, requiring the presence of a company server and acting as a remote kill switch. It's not about putting the burden of preservation on the studios, but of reasonable "preservability".

The argument that actually preserving video games is easy because we have preserved other forms of media does not hold. Digital data is problematic to preserve because most physical supports have ridiculously low shelf life compared to, say, paper. Storing it on computers which age even faster isn't any better. Furthermore we have lost to time countless works from other media, some critical. Fortunately this all has little to do with what Stop Killing Games is about.

It clawed too 💅

i hate wars but vim is better than emacs

Sometimes I wonder who I would be without the constant, crippling anxiety.

No more bugs… but lots of humans. Time to return to primordial form.

Cat girls & boys are very sensitive to noise because they have two sets of ears. So remember to always whisper the gentle words you have for them ;3
