Catchy

It's Kuwanano's VTuber character in an Animal Crossing style setting. They are sitting on a log bench and holding a book. Next to them is a cup of coffee. Behind them is an apple tree. There's also blue butterflies and red tulips.

Thank you @cerberinu.bsky.social for commissioning this hella cute ACNH artwork for me 🥹🥹🥹💜💜💜

I wonder if there are some "Metroid Prime"-esque clones out there somewhere....
and no, it mustn't be a woman, or a suit, that could be literally anything. An alien with it's blaster as it's "body"-part thing, Android-like, maybe... but eh. The creativity is literally endless there.

Discord tries to reassure people that only a very small number of people will have to do this, since they've already have enough data of their users to determine who is an adult and who isn't, which - funnily enough - isn't reassuring at all.

Oh, screw Discord... "Teen-by-default", my ass... "Protecting children".

Everything he says is probably correct. Probably.

On that date, in December 1, 2022, it's probably over 15 years or even longer, but I saw that picture before, that's what I remembered,
I may was just 15 years old at that time. lol

^ I posted this on that date on Twttr, ofc the account is deleted, there was not more than this single post there.

Anyway, I eventually found the image some time later, but I don't know where... probably the Wayback Machine or sth. I'm not sure if there is a better quality out there somewhere.

I remember I saw a photo with a Retro Studios developer sitting in front of a CRT TV "playing" Metroid Prime, being in those blue rooms, but I can't find it anywhere. I saw it a few times on a wiki or something, long ago, but like... it's nowhere to be found, at least not for me.

What the hell was that? #MetroidPrime4Beyond #NintendoSwitch

Morph Ball in Metroid Prime, inside rocky cavern

Bonus visor: Morph Ball Camera! This is pretty much a visor - instead of gun and particles, we have world shadows projected on the ball surface (RIP Andy O'Neal), a projected shadow under the ball, and a constant dynamic light. 7/7

We also render with a white-to-black "fog" that also means we don't render far-away objects, and it's rendered at a lower resolution and blurred. 6/7

Omega Pirate viewed through the X-Ray Visor in Metroid Prime

X-Ray Visor (done by Ted Chauviere) also has combat and lets you see through things. Sort of. Only enemies and your gun are see-through. Everything else is pretty much the same, and "invisible" objects are just models turned on and off. 5/7

Thermal Visor in Metroid Prime, looking at several Space Pirates

The thermal visor does have combat and particles. Where do we get perf? No static lightmaps. We turn off all world lighting, and the post-process filters are just a palette lookup. 4/7

A beetle in Chozo Ruins being scanned in Metroid Prime

Then we have the scan visor. It has the baseline, plus more UI, markers, a zoom window, etc. But it doesn't have the gun, projectiles, and their lights. All that perf goes to the visor. 3/7

Phendrana Drifts in the Metroid Prime combat visor

The baseline, of course, is the default visor. This is an unmolested view of the world, it has the gun, lightmaps, and allows for plenty of combat. It has to be the most beautiful, because it's the one you see the most. 2/7

A composite of four screenshots from Metroid Prime 1, each showing a different visor view.

Prime 2 Visor Post Incoming, bringing this from Twitter for MP1:

#MetroidPrime Dev - 60fps Visors. I get asked a lot how we held 60fps with four visors. The short answer is to make one visor the "baseline," and make sure the others perform as well or better, with tech or design. 1/7

Glauben wir nur, was wir glauben wollen? Menschen suchen vor allem nach Bestätigung. Das gilt nicht nur für andere.

Es gibt gute Gründe, bestimmten Medien mehr zu vertrauen als anderen. Aber im Alltag haben wir vor allem auch einen nicht so guten Grund: Sie schreiben, was wir glauben wollen. „Wir sind bestätigungssüchtige Wesen“, sagt Bernhard Pörksen.

Comic in vier Panels, teilweise coloriert.
Erstes Panel:
Eine Frau in einem grünen Hoodie schaut wütend auf ihr Handy und sagt WTF. Aus dem Handy kommt eine Textbubble, in der folgendes steht: ICE, USA, Krieg, Grönland, Zölle, Faschismus, AI Slop, Random Merz Kommentar
In der Textbox darüber steht: Die Nachrichten machen mich so wütend und hilflos. Am liebsten würde ich die ganze Zeit viele Menschen in Führungspositionen beschimpfen.

Zweites Panel:
Die Frau sitzt an einem Tisch und zeichnet nun wütend ein Bild. Darüber steht: Stattdessen zeichne ich weiter knuffige hoffnungsvolle Bilder.

Drittes Panel:
Ein Blatt Papier, auf dem ein sehr einfacher Fuchs mit einer Blume gezeichnet ist, über dem Fuchs steht: Stay Strong.

Viertes Panel: Ein wütendes rosa Glücksbärchi schickt Glücksstrahlen hinaus in die Welt, in den Glücksstrahlen steht: Gib verdammt nochmal nicht auf!
Über der Illustration steht: Wie ein sehr wütendes Glücksbärchi.

Es ist nicht leicht, die Nachrichten zu verfolgen und nicht komplett die Hoffnung zu verlieren. Aber wir machen weiter und unterstützen uns, ok?
(Wieder ein schneller Scribble Comic.)

Hiiiiiya!!!! 👋🏽🤭

This will be my last post until next time on my version of Roxanne from the Goofy Movie!
She was one of my dreamy cosplays because she’s super cute, nerdy & I adore her! I had a lot of fun playing in her look & can’t wait until next time. More is on my P🥰treon on Liara 🖤🖤

YouTube video by Games Done Quick Metroid Prime 3: Corruption by MrMiguel in 2:51:25 - Awesome Games Done Quick 2026

In speedruns, you should avoid any room load delays as you can, but sometimes they're happening at random (especially on G.F.S. Olympus where some lines are said at random) and delay the room load, because of it.
Link to said fun fact: www.youtube.com/watch?v=M__1...

Some technical fun fact about #MetroidPrime3Corruption:
Conversations (audio files) have priority over room loads, otherwise the conversation has some random pauses in it, because it currently would load a room first and then continue the conversation, would feel unnatural, too.
