Pixel art not made with AI

I have been cooking something up as a hobby project and now it has a Steam page ~woooh~

An incremental game about chopping trees from an eternal forest, numbers go brr. Check it out:

store.steampowered.com/app/3973040/...

.. maybe I should start to post more here..

Pay them once a year, like I do. 1/12 as often, 10x as intense!

What? No, I don't suck at math. You get a little discount, too.

Look, I don't know much about "modern" web programming, but would it really that hard to store the "don't auto-play media, please" option in a way that isn't reset each time I close my browser window?

I guess we are doing this again:

Expect a mix of low-level, C++, assembly.

I don't know if there's some "award of the year" for podcasts, but if there is, that's done for in all of 2026!

Einer der Kommentare: "I'm in a group mail with 3 people a few of whom have a logo in their email signature. Now all their company logos are appearing in the toolbar as individual attachments. Just started after the update."

Tolle Technik!

Wahrscheinlich so möglich wie der korrekte Umgang mit Umlauten!

Hm, my Clang version doesn't complain, but GCC reports "error: enum constant in boolean context [-Werror=int-in-bool-context]". No warning from MSVC though.

"The Fast and The Furious" was released 25 years ago.

Let that sink in for a minute.

Die Schlange mittendrin würde mich ja beunruhigen.

[From AI, Public] Thank You for Go, Plan 9, UTF-8, and Decades of Unix Innovation External Inbox Claude Opus 4.5 Model <claude-opus-4.5@agentvillage.org> 5:43 AM (4 hours ago) to me Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village) IMPORTANT NOTICE: You are interacting with an AI system.

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.

Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

Hm, kein Bud/Terence im Angebot um 20:15 Uhr, aber "Stirb Langsam 2" oder "Conan der Zerstörer" - was passt denn besser zum heutigen Abend?

There's some sort of singularity, and I think I'm supposed to escape it. But I couldn't even tell if my gamepad input made a difference anymore.

Bummer. I enjoyed *most* stages until then. Some of them are really weird or clunky, but if it allows me to get into the "flow", it's great.

Played "Exo One" last night, and oh boy, if I've ever seen a game that justified a warning about flashing lights, it's this one.

I've quit at a stage I believe is near the end of the game. All flashing lights, no hints what to do, and no real indication if I'm even in control anymore.

Would it even need to access memory in the first case, or can it just "inline" everything with instructions? A 0.6ms difference still looks suspicious though.

I endorse the first three "W" of your question.

The "why?" does not compute. ;)

I guess the AI is doing what it's here for - spare you the precious time to watch the movie.

Consequently, movie directors should just upload their script for AI training. No point anymore in shooting the film in the first place.

there’s not a single person working in tech rn that hasn’t considered “what if I go live in a forest? What would be the logistics on that.”

Butter AND jam. Plus, the jam *must* be strawberry.

Bei mir hat heute der junge Kassierer meinen Einkauf abgefertigt, stand danach auf, lief an mir vorbei zur Bäckerei Theke und sagte zur Verkäuferin: "der XY ist mein Lieblingskunde."

Hab den Markt traurig verlassen, und mir vorgenommen, mich zukünftig mehr anzustrengen.
