@TheBeego @DaddyWarpig @WayneS0L0 Nope, between that and the rainy Kamino and the Coruscant nightlife you couldn't ask for a better series of settings for a buddy-cop Jedi noir subplot. What's not to like? Why would anyone hate this?

[Adam Rezich @rezich]

@uncledoomer Complete and utter misdiagnosis. Millennials saw the prequels as children and only learned to hate them by adopting the opinions of Gen Xers, who hate them for more complex though still retarded reasons.

@Lol8ball They've moved on, and are still playing Cyberpunk 2077, one hour-long weekend session (as permitted by their wives, who also mandated their vasectomies) at a time.
They watch Noclip and other YouTube series *about* video games, though, so they still think of themselves as gamers.

I'm both, and always have been (born 1991).
All six movies are good, and both trilogies were immensely inspiring worldbuilding exercises that extended beyond themselves into multimedia franchises in ways that Kids These Days could never conceive of.
A different, better time—gone.

I'm glad I grew up to be a "Matrix sequels are good actually" revisionist than a "Star Wars prequels are good actually" revisionist. There's far more nobility in the former.

@Magic_Nipples AI slop has successfully defeated low-effort human slop.
Everyone wins, except for the slop-shovelers.

@GreenTextRepost Just had a scare with my RTX 3080 TI that was RMA'd nine months in and has since been going strong for three years, until it just stopped working abruptly.
Dusted out the case and reseated it and now it SEEMS fine, but like I really don't want to have to sell my house for another

FanDuel+DraftKings > 2×AIPAC is crazy stuff.
We live in completely absurd times.

The most interesting about this graphic is that it was created and shared by Al Jazeera.

I've been discovering new vibe coded file managers on a weekly basis lately and I've just gotten used to it.

Most are toy programs. A couple of things worth mentioning here:

- Vibe coding still won't give you top notch technical results. You can do better if you have the knowledge, even if you use AI to assist you.

- Programming != building a product as a whole.

- Designing a good UI and user experience is a whole different skill set.

- Building a good brand is another skill in itself.

- Creating and maintaining a good product website and presenting your product effectively.

- Vibe coding a toy project and putting it on github is very different from selling it to someone and taking responsibility for maintaining it.

- Marketing is again a whole different domain. Posting on social media, reddit, writing blog posts, creating showcase videos etc.

- Building and managing a community through discord, email or whatever platform you choose.

- Running your own company...

The list goes on.

Don't be discouraged by things like this. Put yourself in the user shoes. If you wanted a program that does job X really well, would you rather pay some money for a reputable product with an established community, reliable support, and a proven track record.
Or would you browse github for projects where you have to download the codebase and build it yourself?

And I'm talking about users who actually want to find something good, pay for it and get on with their work. Not those who complain on the internet about something costing money and not being open source. Those people would nag you even if you were on the toy project side of things.

So keep your head up and do what you're good at. Let others copy you. That's actually a sign you're doing something right.

@SheriefFYI It's literally the only possible answer!
Low-effort slop built using commercial game engines and shoveled onto Steam has been defeated by AI—And That's A Good Thing.

@Naaackers @_flxck Literally says right there in the UI element where to find the global setting man

FINALLY, someone is making a “boomer shooter” by ACTUALLY programming it the way the boomers did—rather than wearing “boomer shooter” as a skinsuit stretched over Unity or Unreal (you can always tell). Nice!

[Robert Libsansky @RobertLibsansky]

My upcoming game doesn't run on any modern engine; it uses a custom raycasting implementation written in C. I’m not a big fan of game engines, they come with pre-defined approaches for how to do things, which I find limiting. 🤔 #indiegame #gamedev #SDL3

@Orbiborb The automatic closed captions think he's saying Grok instead of Brock lmao

Forgive your parents, they did the best they could.

Forgive everyone, they did the best they could.

Release the chains that bind you.

@alfredjviii Post-Republic commoner hairstyles are identical to those of the 1970s United States; therefore the original trilogy is unwatchable.

[Adam Rezich @rezich]

@DaddyWarpig @WayneS0L0 Post-Republic hairstyles are just American 1970s hairstyles, therefore the original trilogy is unwatchable.

And the WHOLE POINT was that the Jedi Archives are not as complete and incorruptible as the waning Jedi Order (represented by the smarmy librarian-Jedi) think dude come ON

Well worth reading.

The thing about "our democracy" descending into third-world parody is that the process can be very funny.

[Adam Rezich @rezich]

Not only are you making wild assumptions about players' preferences with your wholly arbitrary picky/non-picky dichotomy, but you've somehow also managed to project a set of preferences upon me that I've never stated whatsoever, as I've been just inquiring about the validity of your market evaluations as a developer, rather than expressing my own consumer preferences. Taken together, it seems as though you're approaching market evaluation entirely on vibes alone rather than even considering looking at any actual data—you do you, of course, but it's clear now that you're not constraining your thinking about these things with any actually observable reality.
