"The more I think about literature as a concept the more it horrifies me. Just a machine for totalizing disassociation which consumes days or years and leaves you with nothing"

actually I think an anecdote creating a mentality which prevents being excited about your own work is a bad thing
Deadass everytime im kinda proud of a comic im working on or storyboards for a movie, I have this image flashbanged into my mind to keep me humble

gamemaker variable definitions seem like a better way to organize create code stuff, but not being able to ctrl+f search your use of them like you can with actual create code makes it insane to consider using so basically the entire feature is currently pointless

it should be a rule that you need to release 1 thing in the last year in order to have thingdev clout

everyone had to learn how to spell "suffice" and what "former" means at some point. I really don't understand what's embarrassing or bad about someone learning
we’re actually doomed

DLSS IS NOW RUNNING ON AMD HARDWARE 🚨 A new mod called HelixSR runs NVIDIA's DLSS 3.7 neural network directly on AMD GPUs. No NVIDIA card, no drivers, no cloud. It even works on the Steam Deck, where early tests have it running FASTER than AMD's own FSR 4 (3.5ms vs 4.5ms per frame at 800p) while looking way better than FSR 3. Video below is DLSS vs FSR 4 on an RX 5700 XT, a 7 year old AMD card. NVIDIA IS F*CKED

the bot is going to kill consoles, "platforms", & there's really no way to stop it at this point. even if they sue everyone and make it illegal, open models are only like 6 months behind. The idea of there being any kind of friction keeping software on specific hardware is over

this is the kind of stuff that I go into the settings to turn off as soon as I see it on any program I use on my PC
I absolutely LOVE the animations on the new Windows Search

1. atoms aren't wood 2. chairs are made of atoms 3. chairs are wood ??
the "Hard Problem" in a nutshell: 1. atoms aren't conscious 2. humans are made of atoms 3. humans are conscious 4. so at least one of 1-3 must be false Panpsychists say #1 is false Dualists say #2 is false Illusionists say #3 is false Materialists say #4 is false

[IntelliSense Disclosure] I have to admit, I used IntelliSense and syntax highlighting to assist me in with this project. I struggle to remember all the symbols of the standard library, so these tools come in handy and speed up my development flow. Hope for your understanding.
