Bernadette, she/her, tired of everything, not a lostwave enthusiast, Nintendo fan, dog person, and I will forever be better off never existing and when that time comes I will finally be free from the past that killed me over a decade ago. Now I wait for death as an empty shell of who I used to be!

Even if I don’t say anything, I still feel bad for knowing, and extra bad for not helping the person out, but I’d feel worse if I did.

- Comment on Where do I go if I want to find someone to help me make an app game? 3 weeks ago:
There are tutorials that have you build a game to learn the basics and syntax and stuff. Oh, right, if you actually do use GameMaker avoid that drag&drop layout at all costs lol it’s not “easier”
But if you have it all written out already, now you just need to read the manual on whatever development platform you chose and figure out how to make the computer do what you have written. Like, if you want the title screen to have scrolling clouds and a bouncing logo for example, you’ll need to find out how to change the logo sprite’s Y coordinate and the clouds’ X coordinate using the documentation.
Tldr do one of those “my first game” tutorials on whatever platform you chose to get the feel of it.

Code isn’t that hard to learn, it just looks intimidating trust me.
Gamemaker and unity are free. Anyone can make a game.
Just make it on your own.

- Comment on Nintendo seeks default judgement and $17,500 in damages from pirated game streamer who ignored court summons 3 weeks ago:
I call them out when they actually do something wrong. And yes, they really did save my life, far more than just saving me from suicide.
- Comment on Nintendo seeks default judgement and $17,500 in damages from pirated game streamer who ignored court summons 3 weeks ago:
When you play a game on release date that wasn’t leaked, spoilers and stuff surface on the internet at an average pace. Players who wait a long time to play the game will have this similar experience.
Leaked content spreads like wildfire as the posters know it’ll most likely be taken down, and well, streisand effect. All communities for the game will be flooded with untagged spoilers before the game is even out. I bet that streamer was basically speedrunning the games to leak as much as possible, which most players who just enjoy the game won’t do.
Either way, the money asked for is a lot, yes, however pirating and broadcasting unreleased games is a very stupid crime.

Nintendo actually saved my life, not joking or exaggerating.
- Comment on Nintendo seeks default judgement and $17,500 in damages from pirated game streamer who ignored court summons 3 weeks ago:
Before release is before everyone gets a chance at playing it themselves. This person also isn’t a professional reviewer or journalist so their content isn’t beneficial to the consumer either. Before also releases spoilers that will be near impossible to avoid once they’re out. And what’s the point of playing the hot new game if you already know the story?
I call Nintendo my angel of salvation and the mother I never had, but I’m just being realistic. Streaming (actually) pirated new games actually does cause damage. Most likely not as much as Nintendo is suing for, but damages nonetheless.
If they were suing for streaming Super Mario World romhacks, especially in 2025 where SMW is old enough to be a dad or the United States President, and is NOT being actively sold, then yeah, I’d disagree. Even if one were to pull “but it’s on Switch Online” or some silly nonsense.

By broadcasting spoilers and making playing the game pointless.
- Comment on Nintendo seeks default judgement and $17,500 in damages from pirated game streamer who ignored court summons 3 weeks ago:
Nintendo doesn’t care if you emulate old games on stream.
They do if it’s a live event which I don’t really get. Modded smash bros is just not okay at live events but hacked Mario World was at GDQ.
All that aside these games were not only new, but unreleased. He literally could have contributed to lost sales from potential buyers watching the games before they were released.
If they went after some SMW hacker emulating a three decade old game, sure. But they didn’t.

The best weather is the one that’s outside. A blizzard doesn’t matter if we have bike lanes. The rain does not matter if we have bike lanes. If you hate your life then move somewhere with more bike lanes. The only reason to live is to ride a bike and you’re dying during every minute not spent cycling.

Why not…? I was abused by so many narcissists and internalized so much that I’m always going to be like them regardless of what I do. I think turning everything into hate at least prevents me from feeling like I matter or I’m anything remotely valuable.

So many pictures of roads
Seems like one of the fun and cool uses of AI images but needs way more polish. Maybe don’t limit it to “ghibli style”
Alright I have an idea for an AI based guessing game that may be unrelated: generate images based on country, city, or state/province stereotypes and the player needs to guess which place the image represents.
