I was worried the remaster would take some of this away, but it looked just as good.

The PS2 version looks great after upping the internal res (not sure how much other stuff like filtering/other technicals has an effect). I haven’t compared it, but like most remasters I’m going to just say the data bloat is probably not worth potential fidelity improvements. That and I’d guess any design issues are still baked in, thus similar experience.

EDIT: In Okami’s case I don’t know if the data size is due to uncompressed files or just due to higher-res pre-rendered videos, but either seems wasteful to me. What is live-rendered and what is pre-rendered just seems arbitrary to me, I’d get if it weren’t viable on older hardware but you’d think a remaster could handle it mostly in-engine.

I want to use Raylib, but mentioning it here on the fediverse doesn’t get much of a response (I can’t see a raylib community from my instance). My choice of language probably doesn’t help, though.

My first issue is wanting vertex colors on 3D models and I am not getting this (this may be a problem with the bindings I’m using, naylib(nim-lang)). The second would be needing guidance for the 2D polygon text loader that I started.

Maybe I could make simple GUI applications with raygui, but I don’t currently really have many viable ideas on what I would want to make.

To OP: Another potential option is using Godot w/bindings. Design is pretty fast and flexible, then using signals is super easy.

I’ve tested some frameworks (specific to my language, so not really helpful to most), the one that I liked more said it was declarative user interface framework based on GTK though I would prefer a similar thing for Qt and there wasn’t an ability to automatically scale text size to better fill the available button size (I was testing an adventure-book reader and hoping to use unicode characters).

Frameworks for single page applications (or some other browser-based tech) might be ok for simple stuff. Similarly, I’ve liked the idea of TUI frameworks (yeah, because htop) but haven’t really tried that yet.

You could also call it a shopping plaza, either in a line or 2 (or possibly 3) sides along its parking lot.

Also bundled with those giant signs that list every store in the plaza.

Seeing unknown: “What’s he building in there? …we have a right to know.”

The bigger issue IMO would be that not everyone has quality sleep, so they might not have a long uninterrupted time in REM to properly dream.

Personally even when I’m in the right state to experience dreams (the type that I do remember) they usually aren’t very vivid, for the above reason or possibly something else. I also have aphantasia so it may be related (or other brain/life stuff). Once I did have a colorful-yet-still(ish) dream related to then-recent photography.

Long enough to accept it. Lots of reasons that ultimately add up to being an inadequate person, but also no transportation/income in a semi-rural area (also health/personality issues) so I’m a shut-in and thus don’t ever meet people. That said, even in school/college it’s not like I ever really made strong connections with people, romantic or otherwise. Non-religious in USA (esp. given rural) certainly doesn’t (and more so didn’t) help with a dating pool either.

And even if none of those were issues, I’m just not that interesting. I suspect the people who might like to be around me are probably also in their house more-often-than-not, and not within any distance/likelihood of meeting.

The problem’s your ass.

Being serious, I’m not sure how you eat enough bread to cause this unless you have some sort of stomach-related-issue or gluten intolerance or something. Unless you just eat way too much bread and then mix it with something that it reacts with?

My comments seem like they’re getting more votes/replies than usual. That could just be because of better stability though, also coincidental/context?

Though I posted 2 threads (OC, simple 3D models with vertex colors. banan) 2 weeks ago that didn’t do much (and they both had federation issues in different places, one went to lemmy.world and not other places and the other thread did the opposite) in Kbin communities that don’t have any new activity still. I thought about posting to artshare (on LW) to see if that’d be better but I also haven’t done anything new with it recently.

With some of the things you listed, probably hazing.

I’m guessing “welcome” might be better translated as an initiation, but hazing is more clear that it is humiliating/degrading and/or dangerous (and maybe even not much of a choice). (Edit)

It doesn’t seem to work for me either, then again I have tinkered a bit with Nim and never known when to use that (though not the first I’ve heard of :=) and thus I never have.

Does it look like a normal assignment? (like var test:string = "wow" or even just test = "wow")
If so, have you tried just replacing := with =?

But why does this example contain such an operator

Good question! I’ll tell you…

…I don’t know.

EDIT: I do see someone say

:= to avoid declaring types

though this is cached on Quora (I couldn’t find the full context) so I’d say this is not a required (or even probably a good) practice to do. I don’t consider myself a programmer and even still, defining types seems like an easy thing most of the time.

Also it may not even be strictly necessary? I think the compiler will at least sometimes infer types during normal assignment, not that you should rely on that. If I had to guess, possibly this operator was removed in 2.0 (or possibly regression).

I’m thirsty for tritium water. I’m sure it’s not a health thing, but it probably tastes better (more quenching).

And I want them to pay me a dollar in store credit to drink it. I want them to study me for the effects after years (and many many gallons) of having done this, and then I want to get a medal from some nuclear safety commissioner in Japan or something and look stupid when they show a still of my face on the Japanese news programs.

Is that too much to ask? But fine, I’ll just drink my well water that probably just has gasoline in it or something like a normal PFA-blooded American. No I know what you’re thinking, it’s not the same.

I use Krita for infrequent no-stakes photo editing (and even pixel art at one point), might not be for everyone but there’s a lot of overlap. Also you can use G’MIC with Krita, so that might help.

I used to use GIMP, but I prefer Krita now.

I mean if I was in the ocean and a shark just wanted to grab a bite to eat that’s just fine. I can’t really swim anyways so I guess that’d be preferable. Just as long as they’re quick about it.

Also I hear sharks are really smooth, so that’s nice.

I mean undesirable and unethical are not the same thing. I wouldn’t really even place an ethical question on a fish, unless maybe they live in an aquarium and know better or something (like eating their handler, assuming living conditions are good). Not even moral questions really, though a hungry fish is probably acting pretty morally to meet its base needs TBH.

That said, if there was a neck-snapper-fish I’m pretty sure people would seek it out. And they’d say stuff like live by the fish, die by the fish.

On a simple level I’d say it depends on the brain structure so it’d vary by fish species even. Though as others have said, things like living conditions and overfishing are ethical issues nonetheless.

Though I just wanted to post this silly video, Would You Eat a Fish if it had Arms and Legs? by Mattias Pilhede. Mirror link

I know. They added some at one point and I installed an anti-CSD package, I’m also pretty sure they pulled back some of their plans because of backlash too.

If they go full CSD I would probably need to find something else and probably just concede+just use the slimmest window theme there is rather than something frameless even (from what I’ve seen, other window theme systems are not as modular as xfwm which allows simply deleting the sides/bottom files etc).

Someone could probably make this concept (frameless, minimal title bar, no title on maximized, no raise-on-focus, rolled-up windows, floating window buttons that are only on focused windows) into a simple window manager, probably not me any time soon though. And I’m not sure how easy that is on Wayland (I know options exist to make it easer–such as wlroots I think–though I don’t know how it’d compare to making something for X).

For me, xfwm is the defining feature. I have my own custom super-minimal window theme (old screenshot showing mpv looking like PiP, I made a newer version with the idea of rolling up windows such as when playing music). Also the tweaks for hiding the titlebar when maximized.

Though I’m also on nvidia (1050Ti) so I don’t really even think about Wayland.

I need a lady to try to fix me, only to put my head in a freezer because the technology doesn’t exist. (EDIT: to be clear I mean cryonics not just next to the broccoli, not that revival tech really exists either)

That doesn’t have much to do with anime, but I suppose it does make sense that being hit by a truck is a common vehicle (pun intended) for escapism plots.

Also I imagine a yandere would get bored(/see flaws) with a shut-in and dump them when there’s no separation and no reason for them to be jealous.

For an actual reply from me, I’m a NEET shut-in with untreated health issues in a semi-rural area so probably not much unless in the same state (USA, MI). My ideas for individual help would be if somebody could:

1. Tell me when the trail is going to open back up, or maybe they are the ones working on it (though either of those would likely just have me know slightly sooner)

2. Tell me if atlas orthogonal adjustment is a real+effective thing (particularly in context of sleep quality/energy, autonomic issues, POTS, known whiplash history etc) and if the chiropractors near me (+the trail) have the equipment for that procedure plus X-rays (paperwork info etc).

3. (If you live in an intentional community, again near the trail) tell me if I could be a good fit. Which is also a gamble when it comes to personality compatibility. And I don’t have high hopes for it.

So you see it’d be like trying to get a bullseye blindfolded when you don’t know where any dartboards are. Unlikely even if you had many darts.

On a non-local and less important note there is tech stuff that is specific, a high bar, and the sort of thing I already talk about here on the Fediverse already:

1. Like still no Nim-lang bindings ready for Godot 4.

   • Or alternatives that have similar feel+capability (from what I’ve seen, none do) but better support.

2. Anything relating to untextured polygonal art.

   • Godot 4 has a still-unmerged PR that allows for dynamic constructed art (animated eye example) but performance is likely an issue using it like that especially with MSAA

     • and Godot still has vertex colors done via a list (no painting/color tools like index/layers).

   • Raylib has polygons but there is no editor (I have an unfinished text format, because there are 2 formats for polygons).

   • If I went with 3D that may be easier but I’d need to learn Blender unless there is also a good simpler low-poly+vertex colors model program.

3. Free games that I don’t find tedious.

   • It would be nice to have a Minetest game that doesn’t copy certain things from MC

     • like hunger/stamina and cluttering cosmetic variants of blocks
     • would be nice to have things like pistons (but more powerful/viable in survival mode, chain-able w/o manual logic), but with a close-enough base game (and not too wiki-dependent) I might try to figure out how to make what I can.
     • Maybe something more like MC beta, though I guess maybe it’s subjective plus difficult to add real compelling elements.

   • Not quite satisfied with S.Pixel Dungeon or other roguelikes.

Hopefully this makes sense and isn’t too eclectic, answering something perhaps. Because I know these are probably too out-there.

I would say the point of my comment was more on despair than dread.

And anyone who downvoted probably didn’t get that I was speaking from my own life, as addressed in another reply. Guess that’s my fault for trying to make it not about me.

Though either way I can’t actually see the downvotes. None of them are federated to Kbin and on the Lemmy side the score seems identical now and no vote tracking to show negatives (unless that’s only if you have an account).
