@Ki3_Games Hey, lots of that invisible internal stuff is valuable! Just make sure that you keep up on your game-dev tasks if you use social media posting as a way to keep yourself accountable with your goals :) (I have a tendancy to get lost in internals)

@hipsterelectron I boost my replies when I want to "quote-tweet" something.

The word queue is ironic. 

To me programming is more than an important practical art. It is also a gigantic undertaking in the foundations of knowledge.

There's a really cool claymation puzzle game called The Neverhood. It was a big part of my childhood, and it looks like GOG might work to bring it back to modern devices! Consider voting to bring it back from the old times to modern-day computers, if it looks interesting to you. gog.com/dreamlist/game/the-nev

@spitfire @256 Yep! According to the alt-text in the first image.

Good morning Fedi! Do any of yall use a operating system that's not Linux, Windows, BSD or Mac on a regular basis? If so, which one?

#os #linux #bsd #macos #windows #dos #freedos #amiga #plan9 #Solaris #aix #pdp11 #retrocomputing #os2 #qemu #haikuos

@fuuma I use Haiku regularly while college is in session, for note-taking and some schoolwork. It's a great little system.

Been thinking a lot about media recently, and I think a lot of writers and creators really need to understand the importance of pacing and a strong first impression.

The intro of Mario & Luigi: Brothership was dull, and turned people away. The first few episodes of the RTD 2 version of Doctor Who were bad and turned people away.

In both cases, the creators stuck the boring and audience alienating stuff at the start, and lost a sizeable percentage of said audience.

@tante I think this is a bit too extreme and generalized. For instance I don't use the inline code suggestions, they annoy me. But I sometimes use the AI Chat to ask programming questions, especially when I'm in a domain that I'm not very familiar with. I don't blindly copy the answers. I validate them and use them as an inspiration to solve the current coding problem. I'm very aware that AI makes errors.

I found this #throwback from a few years ago. I'm thankful to whoever made it.

#foss #linux #debian

I just logged into FaceBook for the first time in years and it’s filled with the most insane AI slop

At least I have cool music to listen to that my brother made.
