i think it is interesting to lump brad tromel in here since in my head he’s more of a practice-based research guy. gamed the system too well

computer was the only thing i liked
What are your favorite visual critiques of software? On my mind right now are:
1. "The long tail of user needs"
2. diSessa's monolithic apps vs computational media
3. (a recent favorite by @todepond.com) "wish these apps could talk to each other"

Quality performance art. Easy to parse, thematically relevant, kinda gross. Love it.

in accessibility-> display and text size. toggle show borders, reduce transparency, increase contrast, and differentiate without color
guess i’m going greyscale until it’s over! and changed some of these settings. it makes folders look bad though so i might need to reorganize my home screen

16.12.2025 19:41 — 👍 3 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0this is also with the caveat that 1) i think the ds is the best handheld console and 2) i have a pc so even if a game has a switch port i tend to get on steam regardless
13.12.2025 14:44 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0steam deck has a wider variety of games that go on sale often. a lot of indie ports for switch are more $$$ and often have performance issues
but a huge con for me is form factor: the deck is way too big&heavy for my little bird wrists. the switch while docked / switch lite feel better to play on
