when looking for alternatives for #discord, you really start to notice how much it does; dms, public chatrooms with topic channels, voice AND video chat, and livestreams.

that’s kind of a lot of features, each its own technical maintenance, plus the last two taking up ALOT of bandwidth.

just saying you’re probably not going to find one single app that does all of them, and that’s ok. don’t treat discord as the ONE standard all apps must conform to as a base.

I like games with majority women or all women characters, but there's a distinct difference between ones where the women are there because they're characters, or they're there just to be ogled at and sell the game based on looking attractive

sometimes it's a bit of both, they're attractive but also they're just characters, the real stinkers of the bunch are, of course, gacha games. oh how I loathe gacha games

i just installed and am currently using niri. how the fuck do you change your mouse’s settings

ugh i wish i knew things

coding as a job is probably going to be entirely ai-assisted if not just full vibecoding in a few years
i don’t want to live that life as an income source
so i have like 1-2 years to learn 3d art or anything at all
but it’s so hard to focus on learning when i also am trying to survive

i wish i knew how to course correct

I often forget how impressively powerful the switch 2 is, most of the time all I see its new specs get used for is 'here's an original switch game and it's displaying in 4k now', which is nice of course, no complaints there, but it doesn't exactly make it feel like a massive improvement

but then I play something like cyberpunk which is just doing things that the switch just absolutely could not do and it's like. okay yea. it's actually extremely impressive they've got this much power in a console this small nowadays

like. this thing is doing just as good if not better than my PS4 Pro and its only a tiny fraction of the size

should i try to use niri instead of kde?

I'm pretty excited for the new tomodachi life, I never got the 3DS one, partially I think cause I was peeved you couldn't make the miis gay, and now not only can I make them gay, I can also make them aro, it's even better than I could have hoped for

plus the customization stuff seems really fun, it really seems to have taken a lot of cues from animal crossing new horizons, it's looking great

I think I found the funniest looking dinosaur toy of all time

In 2023, I posted about a bizarre Dolce & Gabbana shirt featuring Mario standing in a beam of light alongside text praising him. I have tracked down the source of the image, which was a splash page in the E3 2000 brochure. Now the venerated Mario can be seen in high quality.

According to Motoi Okamoto, Mini-Game Director for Super Mario 64 DS, Shigeru Miyamoto would start midnight crunch sessions for the game's development by walking into the office and announcing "It's Mario time."

I had a dream the other night that at one point during the knight fight in deltarune, you just kind of blast them to smithereens, exposing their inner core, called 'the whimpering' (which I suppose was in contrast to 'the roaring'), which looked like a naked ralsei, surrounded with conveniently placed swirling clouds of darkness for modesty, of course

also I noticed that he had three arms, the third one coming from his back and clasping the hand of his usual left arm, and I was somehow the first person to notice this and was making a post about it lol

I remember thinking about how this completely destroyed all the 'who is the knight?' theories because it turned out. the knight is ralsei.
