Thank you! I like it and people I have shown it to say it feels ”addictive”, but something is missing as I am the only person who keeps playing after some levels :D so maybe it’s for me only.

I got an idea for game mechanic I wanted to test and ended up learning bit of Godot to try it out.

I had an idea for a puzzle game and learned some game programming to try it out. Only made it to scratch my own curiosity and was postively surprised how fun the process was. I got some of my friends hooked but other than that of course absolutely no one saw it. World is full of casual puzzles.

Those two characters looking into the sunset in the background… where exactly is the cool white light illuminating their faces coming from?

The same place music in the film is coming from.

Then again trying to solve wordle with it will drive you mad

Apparently Michael Lewis has been following SBF for six months already[1]

Thanks, added arrow keys and (a & d). It's a good improvement for desktop. Godot is nice and has all the basic things for casual game like this out of the box. For HTML5 it feels bit heavy, but on the other hand enables building for iOS, Android etc.

I don't know how it compares to others as this is my first game.

I have been running my model B as a VJ tool. It runs glsl shaders in SD resolution quite nicely. Has composite output straight in the board.

I remember it was also that cloud as a term was pure marketing hype. Unnecessary rebranding of a thing we already had a good name for, servers. And also to pick such a irrational name ”cloud” which didn’t relate to technology at all. You could hear everyone use it in nonsense high flying keynotes. All the hands-on computer people laughed at it and I think cloud to butt was part of that.

In the end it’s actually really good word for newish concept and using it does not feel silly to me anymore.

I sort of wish companies would not have employees passwords. Hashing should be standard practice.

There is lot of talk and debate about building wind, nuclear doing the green transition etc. in Finland. I guess like in every country. Somehow it makes me sad that group of open source developers could do more today than we ever can to help the planet no matter how much we scale back.

Although they built the hell machine in the first place, so maybe better if they would not have ever done anything.

I’ve heard that before photography framing was different. Nobody painted half a head for example. After accidents in framing during photography new ways to frame image spread to painting. Always wondered if it was true.

That slow flip on animation drives me nuts! It should be skeuomorphic all the way and flip on instantly.

Anyone made version for VR headsets?

It’s pretty good idea not to dump huge quantities of anything into rivers, sea, atmosphere. Is your position that people who want to curb emissions should stop to think about unintended consequences? Maybe we should have done that earlier when building this system with no accountability for externalities.

It’s strange to think he lived such solitary life and yet millions will read about his death.

Even the editors don’t usually use the original files but they get transcoded to proxy format for editing.

It seems to me in north of Europe if you finance your art making by yourself you are perceived as kind of a hack. You need grant, not maybe because of the money but to validate you as being part of the scene. On the other hand many of the artists are still from rich families, because it is still a gamble.

The query infringes on rights of Mike Zoss productions, Warner bros entertainment and Walt Disney Studios and cannot be executed

You mean ”Easy To Remeber Blue”?

Joking aside I agree with you that it is useless to name 16 million colors but I appreciate the futile effort.

The non-joke use case could be memorizing / communicating bunch of colors. Those human readable names are lot easier to remember than hex values.

https://colornames.org/ Has 17.9% colors named already.

I dapple in the clothes industry and sometimes it feels like people get really turned off if their clothes are not made by literal slaves. Not all expensive brands are ethical but the few dollar t-shirts etc are never. Drift it or pay for the real costs involved. If we don’t fix the idea about what basic necessities like clothes should cost the planet and people living on it are toast.

To think that somebodys underpaid job somewhere is to prerip jeans for us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWhYdXNaDL0

Also if you don’t want to kill people don’t have a seizure or a brain infarct or a stroke or such while driving.

Also in digital cinemas films are JPEG2000 sequences.

Looks like streetview of center of Helsinki was last updated 2009. Granted it's not very big either but capital of a european country still.

I don’t know where you are from but seeing sauna gain popularity outside Finland and Estonia lately has been refreshing. It is commonplace thing here and I don’t think we attach so much theory or consider ”using” it for any particular reason because it is so mundane. Maybe if you intentionally have to go to lengths to do it then you also think about the meaning of doing it more deeply.

Not to be rude, but to expand how this sounds to me - It’s like going to shower to incorporate shower thoughts to be part of your daily routine. Which is profound but at the same time somehow narrow view of the whole routine and tradition of having showers.

Careful there. Nest cams can turn ugly all of a sudden.

If me and a cat were thrown into random woods my money would be on the cat surviving for longer period. I think humans are pretty fit in groups, but cats are functional enough to make it on their own.

I think human style intelligence we appreciate so highly is useful mostly in relation to other humans.
