Agh.. Not on here often but very unfortunate to hear news of the direction of moderation recently.

The year is 2025. You can't setup your lightbulbs because AWS is down.

Less than 30 seconds into joining the instance and I get this stuck on me >:(

The biggest lesson I've learned in life is. Associate with nobody, and hide your true self.

It's lonely, very lonely, but the upsides vastly outweigh the downsides.
The odds of meeting a reasonable person these days is slim.

The internet has destroyed human connection.

Today is a good day, I got fresh fries from McDonalds :3

NEW CVE!

The CVE: If an attacker can gain physical access to a device and replace the entire System32 folder with malware, there's a risk of users being infected with malware

One of my chief complaints with modern software is, nothing works correctly anymore.

Today I got a great example from the YouTube app of.. whatever this is.

October likes, 4.2k 2025's, just 4.2 everything I guess

I think, unfortunately, the only thing modern Android has going for it is that it's open, and Google plans on killing that off too.

Otherwise it's terribly unoptimized, bad UX, not cohesive, and simultaneously has an underpowered app suite.

Accidentally tap in the wrong spot? Now you have opened 3 popups and when you press back in frustration you go too far and exit what you doing (e.g. scrolling social media) and have completely lost your spot.

Try to screen record? Notifications will drop you to 5fps

Try to send a video somewhere, too big. How do I compress it? With an app. Because ofc that's not built in.

Telegram - fails to upload almost every video unless <5mb. Just sits at 99%.
Text messaging - Attempts to send videos, then tells you 2min later "Send something 1min or less" (vid is 5sec)

Realizing that so many older games that ended up being the first of their kind, also captured lightning in a bottle

and many of them would still be a hit today if re-released properly + advertised + supported with new content.

but corporate greed always ends up giving us awful 'remasters'

A familiar sight

The s t a c k @ Furality
We've actually heard people in other instances talking about this haha

@furality.org We convinced everyone in an instance to become small : Club of ants!

Hmmmm, not sure I agree 😛

Back to my regularly scheduled posting: This now supports the iPad version of Tap Tap Revenge (Tap Tap Radiation)

15 years ago iPads were still new and I was jealous to see people play this, 15 years later I finally got to try it in my engine clone.

It's cool c:

Some days I opt for gaming from a simpler era

Unity gets a bad rep, especially from VRChat avatar creators since they're usually more on the artistic side vs the technical side. It's thought provoking though, I bet the whole workflow *could* be simplified for artists so both sides are happy.

Going to be a quiet week with everyone at FWA
Missing friends already😭

Today just got interesting.. Trying to process information that I just recieved about someone I've known for a while.

Kind of in shock atm...

The answer is always both at the same time :D

An actual comment I left in professional code years ago.

DON'T TOUCH YOUR FACE WITH YOUR OUTDOOR WORK GLOVES. AAAAAAAA

I now have poison ivy on half my face and part of my belt line and it is miserable xD

In the year 2025 I would've assumed electricity is something we would have figured out by now. Alas, I still lose power about once a month lol.

*super stoned me staring at a box of cheez-its*
"... but what is 'it'? what are we cheesing?"

Huge thank you to all of my friends who supported me through this time, I truly appreciate it ♥♥. I'm finally going to be able to go home and sleep in my own bed soon.

Wow. THC withdrawal + Caffeine withdrawal + 3 days in a dark cold house with no power + drinking less than a glass of water a day apparently really does a number on your body. Who'da thunk it?!

He's so puppy coded 🥺

IT HAS MULTIPLAYER NOW! Because, why not?
