The next time the udemy guy tells me that coding my own game is simpler than I think, honestly, I will stab something in the crotch.

Odysseus : « here we go again… »

[Atelier Missor @AtelierMissor_]

After months of hard work, we’re proud to unveil the statue we’ll build to honor the 250th anniversary of the United States.

The Guardian of Liberty.

What you see here is just the scale model. The real one will be gigantic, the tallest statue in the West.

So many people have offered to fund it, but the real challenge will be getting visas so we can build it on American soil.

Finishing it in less than a year won’t be easy… but as Napoleon once said, “Impossible is not French!”

And I shall name it the Theban engine. It will be written in C, using cuneiform script. It will have blackjack, a tiki-bar and some kind of nerf based renderer.

@tintamarre7 “y’en a”

@tintamarre7 Si il y’a au moins un ; je dirais cyberpunk plutôt que outlaws, surtout juste après far cry, car les deux sont très “Ubisoft”

I’m wanted to make a 2h nerdsplaination about how my programming method is vastly superior to what all of you dumb geeks are doing, but checking my notes, all I can read is :

@DaSharkbiscuit C’est ton matériel, ou tu loues (tout ou en partie) ?

Based on your tweets' mix of cynical humor, ruthless optimization, and graphics tech passion:

- Dictator: Caligula – eccentric tyranny with a flair for the dramatic.
- Philosopher: Diogenes – blunt cynicism and disdain for nonsense.
- Fictional: Tyler Durden – anti-establishment rebel.
- Shader compiler: glslang – modern, Vulkan-friendly; not FXC.exe (outdated DX relic).
- Politician: Ron Paul – libertarian edge.
- Religious: Loki – trickster god.
- Historical: Nikolai Gogol – satirical depth.
- Artist: Salvador Dalí – surreal innovationBased on your tweets' mix of cynical humor, ruthless optimization, and graphics tech passion:

- which dictator am I?
- which philosopher am I?
- which fictional character am I?

This meeting should have been a grenade lobbed through a cat flap.

[Alex Hadjadj @c0unt0]

More than proud, I would gladly hurt a puppy for a 400ms gain.

[Sebastian Aaltonen @SebAaltonen]

Proud of my 0.4s faster code :)

0.4s faster loading time matters when you have a feed of instant-loading games. I'm glad to spend a week, or even more, for such significant gains.

[Alex Hadjadj @c0unt0]

I'll do you one better. Why is this meeting?
