i just found out about wplace.live the internet is fucking awesome

guess who completely forgot to ever post anything here... totally wasn't me, idk what you're talking about...

anyway I was working on normal mapping in my toy renderer and thought this screenshot looked cool

If you're worried about people remembering every embarrassing thing you did, think about it. Can you remember other people's embarrassing moments? No. That's because you're the only one who's ever done something embarrassing. What the fuck is wrong with you lmao

oh no not again – this is never going to leave my head

developers developers developers developers

oh my god that finally explains it
I was so confused lmao

Me (jiggling the door handle): Locked. I’ll have to find another way through.

that's kind of the problem / why it's taking so long for me to actually make anything - I'm using a custom framework built on SDL

I'm not really complaining though, I'm having a lot of fun working on it

I probably would have gone completely insane without it at this point, definitely one of my favorite pieces of software

every time I look back at this post I cringe a little because the memory counter in the corner was off by a factor of 10

(and yes, two months later I'm still trying and failing to write UI code, not much to show)

A screenshot of Discord, in a blank server in a blank channel. There's a bunch of shit that's wrong and should've been already covered.

hey @discord.com can you make the new ui not trash? Thank.s

"vibe coding" needs a direct competitor. I propose "woe coding", which involves locking a fresh CS student in a room with a ThinkPad older than me until they write a web application in ANSI C89 using ed(1)

Program crashing unexpectedly?

Too many error cases to track?

Just } catch (Exception x) {}.

No warning messages. All exceptions handled. Clean console. Users will just break it anyway, why bother?

You will certainly not regret } catch (Exception x) {}.

a popup in the Element android app which says: "You seem to be shaking the phone in frustration. Would you like to open the bug report screen?"

more apps need this feature imo

this is one of the first songs I remember hearing as a kid. I'm pretty sure it was on some mix CD my parents kept around

I'd never actually payed attention to the lyrics or watched the video, and uh, holy shit lmao

yeah that picture is going to haunt my nightmares for the foreseeable future... something about it is extremely aaaAAaAAaaAAA

*on the phone* yea i got the milk. no it doesnt have that fuckass skeleton in it this time. alright cool

MANKIND IS DEAD BLOOD IS FUEL HELL IS FULL BABA IS YOU

i get reminded of this once in a few months and die

Box with text!!

(it's not all that impressive, but it took me more hours than I care to admit to figure out how to draw the 9-slice, so it feels like A Major Accomplishment™)

yeah same – and I have no clue what it means either

i just need you to understand that when you add "-sky" to the name of some kind of hobby or interest to refer to the bluesky community that exists for it, i always read it as though its a western slavic surname

like yeah, of course i know Warhammersky. hes the guy from krakow who invented the game

the timing works out, I finally started playing through Phantom Liberty yesterday

gonna grab a blanket and some tea first, just in case it doesn't actually warm the room lol

Weather report showing -3 degrees fahrenheit, partly cloudy

time to go play Cyberpunk 2077 and aim the computer's exhaust back toward me

(kind of joking, but the building heat *is* genuinely struggling to keep up today)

I wouldn't normally put this here, but it started as a post and then just got a little... overgrown

(It's just an angry rant about generative AI, feel free to ignore)

Screenshot of my game thing with very noisy rainbow rings surrounding some text

*extremely* broken attempt at lighting but I think it looks cool

oh come onnnn bsky, the video was 5MB, why'd you have to compress it so bad

I wanted to learn how to use Dear ImGui, so uh, here's a random (and almost entirely useless) debug UI thing for the little game framework I'm working on

Picture of my Kindle at the end of Wind and Truth by Brandon Sanderson The screen shows "The end of the First Arc of THE STORMLIGHT ARCHIVE - Book complete - 99%"

woah

...and now to quickly pass through the stages of grief since I'm caught up on all of the cosmere books and have none left to read

I'm actually looking forward to this year for once, which feels really weird...

goals for 2025:
- get my current doomed game idea to the point of "playable demo" by the end of the year
- try to learn to draw more than stick figures

I'm not sure how either of those will go, but I'll (hopefully) at least try!
