I’m the kind of person that doesn’t even hear lyrics in music, game voice logs might as well be white noise to me. On the other hand, when the scene tells a story without words and you have to connect the dots yourself, I find that satisfying. Even basic examples like a corpse reaching toward the glowing red button.

Cronenberg’s Law: For every Garnet there’s a Brundlefly level freak of nature.
Oh, that makes more sense, but then “unsigned” void?
Okay, U8, sure, but a boolean is U0? Surely U1 if you absolutely must…
Reminds me of old Mad Magazine, when they’d parody something they’d draw famous faces in detail but on a much more cartoony body. Definitely a bit jarring, but I’d take it over another stick figure any day.
Look on my works Sim Mayor and

Speak for Yourself by Imogen Heap is a damn solid album.
I had no idea that this was coming out, and it sort of makes me want a PS5… And then I check the price and I think I can wait a couple of years until it’s on PC.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•ThePrimeTime reviews Zuck's AI glasses demo
4·6 months agoSeriously. I want a personal HUD for navigation and reminders that also corrects my vision (like normal glasses), not to become a walking surveillance device / info mine.
Yeah, I also have this question. I loved playing 1 and 2 co-op but 3 and pre-sequel didn’t hold my attention at all. I’m happy to see good reviews but I’d like to hear a review from someone that doesn’t lose their access if they pan it…

Antiwork@lemmy.world•I was laid off from Microsoft after 23 years, and I'm still going into the office. I feel responsible for my team and customers.
12·9 months agoI still feel like it’s idiotic to do work after you’ve been let go, I don’t care how much your colleagues rely on you, the corporation decided you weren’t worth keeping around. At least he’s getting paid, but he could effectively be on a 9 month paid vacation doing literally anything else with his time.
Unless you can launch offensive weapons at other racers or eat shrooms to speed up or literally launch your car off of a vertical ramp into the sky and it turns into a glider in Forza, I’m pretty sure these games aren’t even in the same genre.
Police Union: How could you trample on the sacred rights of the police to escalate any situation into multiple fatalities?
Hell yeah, congrats! I get back into DCSS every few years but I have only escaped with the orb once, a lucky MiFi run. Just getting there is huge!

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Who needs newfangled stuff like forums? 🤢
6·1 year agoI used mutt back in the day, opening vim for message editing.

32·1 year agoI wouldn’t do a mailing list these days, but as someone who spent the early part of my career interacting with devs that preferred this method, it’s actually pretty ergonomic by a 2005 standard. A message thread aware, text based email client that can turn messages into patches in a keystroke makes it actually pretty comparable to modern code review…
I think it’s hard for younger devs to get this because they’re used to email being stuck in a crappy, unthreaded browser interface or Outlook etc. (which are terrible for mailing lists) and most collaboration taking place in code review and chat platforms like Teams/Slack but for decades before these were feasible, email was the way…

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I'm something of an Open-Source-Developer myself
11·1 year agoI have a couple of very minor commits in Linux and, in the 3.0 era, had my name at the top of a source file for a platform that never saw the light of day and was later removed wholesale.
Still feel that invisible feather in my cap.
Because at some point after the first few million you turn into a dragon that must hoard wealth and the people that generate that wealth become a cost to minimize.


Take that! In 20 or 30 years…
