  I’d need a time to make my own versions, like a couple of days, but I won’t go with a straight regeneration of AI image, and my two-three initial design ideas are:

  1. Go with the harlequin theme, but make the hat on top of the A a rich two-color geometrical pattern like it’s usually depicted, with the main dome and side domes.
  2. Drop the A, and make it just a harlequin face, although it doesn’t make it anarchism-related, and picking red-black or any other flag color is limiting.
  3. Drop the A once again to make a red or white circled… B? Since it’s a B-tier or even /b/-tier anarchism-related humor, and most people are in the know to descipher it, why not, lol?
  4. Or make it F+, for both flip and the unpleasant mark we get for not reading theory.

  If that’d become a popular opinion, it can be turned into a vote, and maybe a fun contest for replacements 🤔 Imagine having a vote that is not about drama, harassment, atomization of fediverse but a low-stake negative commentary causing a good change with a side of community-building? I’m not against machine learning, but I am for nice events ;3

  The main downside is my legal fees are rapidly approaching the cost of the tank so I hoping we can have them pay these.

  If having hallucinations and diarrhea was on norovirus, then what’s that? Shitting themselves and delusions seems like their bread and butter.

  I will shit in the tank, and make them pay for it!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Games Now Take 6+ Years To Make⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If we assume the faith of most games gets decided by a board of directors based on a short 10-slides pitch, it’s easy to see that videos and screenshots, made up numbers and popular hashtags (openworld, moba, ai) are what lets them be greenlit. Pertnering up with AMD/NVIDIA so they patch drivers for your project alone, so your game at least launches, is pro and not a con.

  EA doesn’t have fly wrinkles and we do, with the help of AI, in Betamax 9k MetaHD.

  The only way to get under surface for a tripple A game publishers is test groups, but I don’t think this can touch the question of gfx/performance/effort because everything is presented on capable hardware, scenes handcrafted to impress, and it’s hard to point out anything about visuals unless they are hella ugly.

  That was interesting to hear, thank you. I don’t have anything to reply as of now but a suggestion to make your posts a chain of replies. One comment - reply to it - reply to that: in that manner it would keep them in order next time you’d be open to write something.

  It’s genuinely interesting to know. Your reply sounds bigoted and dumb. Is quokk.au the right instance for you?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“I genuinely feel GameNative could replace handheld PCs like the Steam Deck” — Inside Android’s Fastest-Moving Gaming Project, GameNative (my article!)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Reliable Android emulation of Windows’-compatible work programs is, too, a rather interesting niche. Laptop-alikes of tablets with a keyboard are popular in lower budget segment, and if they become viable replacements for desk job workflows, that may cause corpos to consider that.

  Russia has a couple of Linux distros and companies providing custom compatibility settings and wine prefixes to set a client with all the ancient accounting software they are used to work in, so there is a market, but the one completely unprepared for Android devices being capable of doing it as well as desktops.

  I’d suggest the dev to look into it because, I suspect, when the turtles of corpo world would take a taste of that, they may form a competetitive market of providing GameNative’s tooling to their clients in exchange for extremely beefy contracts, while outsourcing resulting errors back to them to fix.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do department stores decide the designs they want to put on T-shirts⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sometimes I wonder about this too, since many of their pics look as random as your second hand store inventory. Many of them either look like random parts of past collections or designer’s portfolio, or a copyrightable copy of something they see as trendy today. E.g. the Michigan one doesn’t convey any message whatsoever but replicates the aestetics of said paraphernalia being popular on Insta, just like the slop engine would.

  Yeah, it’d be cool to have a non-purely-fighting MK. Beat em ups and action-rpgs of Platinum come to mind. This could be neat releasing today.

  After rather simple but fun cabaret minigames in Yakuza series I started to wonder if Fallout:NV could’ve had a casino management sim sewn in it’s storyline. Opening Tops to the public and operating it from the given appartments, finding staff, exploring the needs of Vegas’ visitors could have been nice to further explore the difference of life on the Strip vs the wastelands, even as it’s own game akin to Shelter.

  Video. If there is something mindlessly excessive, it’s always video. And if you have tree leaves for budget, instead of slightly more expensive hardware controllers or PCIe cards that can combine multiple inputs and outputs, and do it right, you default to cheap usb dongles per device used, and compose them on software level. If you collect inputs from several devices and output these to something like displays on a scene, while also collecting audio from mics, DJ deck, and outputting these too, numbers add up quickly. This clownshow is further expanded by unreliable software, usb power, Microslop Windows in most cases - because pros use it or Mac, no penguins. I have no pride in greatly exceeding what some random PCs could predictably do, for fixing random errors here and there when USB and USB hubs hit their practical ceiling is just another level of Dante’s hell, for all us time- and harware-restricted tinkerers.
