Hey, do you have any distant plans? Are you going to get back to Cookie Clicker or do some more new stuff next year? Or maybe you don't have any plans further than Legacy release atm?

orteil42 answered:

DISTANT PLANS THAT MAY NOT BE 100% REALISTIC :

  • continue working on Legacy, adding new eras as i go
  • get back to Cookie Clicker, adding minigames (dungeons, farming etc) to every building
  • redo my homepage and the forums
  • finish and release that music-making thingy i was making
  • polish Idle Game Maker and RandomGen
  • get back to Nested 2
  • possibly finish and port Crab Nicholson Extreme Sleepover to browsers
  • maybe some browser-based RPG framework at some point
  • that C# sandbox game i was making
  • that webGL evolution game i was making
  • that Castlevania-like i started when i was like 16
  • preserve my brain functions through time and space
  • solve the heat death of the universe
  • maybe more cookie stuff if i’ve got time
  • some other stuff i forgot, probably ?

People die on the job every summer. Remember that water and shade breaks are crucial when working in the heat, and calling emergency services for signs of serious heat illness (fatigue, nausea/vomiting, headaches, dizziness, clammy skin, confusion, agitation, slurred speech, high body temperature, rapid heart rate, etc.) is entirely appropriate. If you’re afraid to call 911 for reasons such as being undocumented, you’ll need to get very familiar with how to prevent, recognize, and treat heat illness. If you are symptomatic and not allowed a break, water, or medical treatment, walk out. No matter how broke you are, your job is not worth your life.

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

studentofetherium

if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators

Welcome to the future, where you don’t own anything and the stuff you rent stops working once your phone has no signal.

I wish people remembered the age old wisdom that if something doesn’t absolutely require an Internet connection to function, it shouldn’t be connected to the internet - same goes for apps.

WHY IS A CATFOOD DISPENSER CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET

eeveelutionsforequality

Sometimes I’m glad that I’m too poor for my “cool future stuff” monkey brain to be set loose to buy stupid shit like this.

solarpunkcast

please please please do not buy into the Internet of Things. Digital displays for appliances are one thing, but you shouldn’t need the fucking internet to do your laundry or use the fridge.

God is my witness I initially read this as “TOPS ARE A PRIVILEGE! THEY MUST BE EARNED!” and I thought that was a tad presumptuous of an employer.

Hey hey this is *SUPER* illegal in the United States holy cow.

If you are in this country and took the job, which I hope you didn't, now is definitely the time to look into a pro-bono labour rights lawyer. You're definitely eligible for back pay of any tips withheld and probably more. If you're in any progressive state there's a good chance your rights go beyond this. Regardless, federal regulations:


Tip Regulations under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
DOL

On a personal note I am seeing red over the situation. Fuck them for the audacity to pull this shit. Fuck them for being manipulative, abusive bosses.

I shudder to imagine the culture there.

Plaintext from the video: Please do not type out your DNIs like this. This kind of censorship is inaccessible to those with screen readers. Thank you.

The screenreader is unable to parse words out, instead speaking incoherent nonsense, which would be near impossible to be translated by a listener. /end ID]

Allow me to elucidate, @a-sour-nectarine

When most people "roll their eyes", they flick their eyes directly upward, usually as far as they comfortably go, then resume looking normally.

When someone who learned the phrase before the behavior does it, they usually go in a circular (ish) motion. Since most eye movements are lines, it's usually pretty triangular: the key points are usually a diagonal up one way, then to the far other side, then to a diagonal low the first way. Thus, the eyes basically make a loop, so they "rolled".

I've found that when people who learned the up-down way first try the circular motion, they might risk motion sickness, so experiment carefully.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN MOST PEOPLE JUST LOOK UP

I've seen people do it both ways the only reason I do the straight flick instead of a circle is because I'm prone to motion sickness and it made me sick as a kid

Again: Piracy (ie. ROMs) is preservation. Piracy is archives. Piracy is art-affirming in a world which devalues and abandons art.https://t.co/4H2SbzpSaM — Srsly Wrong Podcast (@SrslyWrong) July 14, 2023ALT

Vimm's Lair: Preserving the Classics
Preserving classic videogames from consoles past.
Vimm's Lair

I'm just gonna slide this on in here for anyone that is interested in preserving old games. They take it very seriously too, they want an archive of every single game. Like, they have lists of every game ever released for a system, and once that system gets old enough, they add it to their archive and start collecting. Their latest addition was the Xbox 360, they opened that vault up in September 2022, and proudly announced they'd finished their collection of games for it back in April.

Also, while their game archives are almost entirely complete, they've got another project of archiving the manuals that came with those games, and that is... considerably less well filled out. Their collection of Xbox 360 manuals is especially rough, they've only gotten manuals for three games. So if you've got some Xbox 360 games kicking around, and the manual's still with them, please consider scanning them and submitting them to the site!

Game preservation is important, but people rarely consider preserving the manuals as well; I really respect Vimm's Lair for being so thorough in their archival work.
