I love and hope they never change the fact that wagons in _Dwarf Fortress_ are living creatures with traits and that can return as ghosts and are listed as “deceased” when scuttled

RE: https://tilde.zone/@nytpu/115476698901955398 Thinking about this fluffy

I _needed_ to reinstall this weekend, this is after doing banal tasks computer with literally <4 hours uptime, it seems like the Kernel memory leak is only getting worse.

It's really amazing that there's literally less than like ten mobile games that have ever existed that are actually meant to be fun rather than solely vehicles for scamming money out of people, even approach the standard of quality of games on _literally_ any other platform, and actually play […]

every creature deserves a big fat tail

I didn't play a single minute of Dwarf Fortress this weekend even though I was planning to all week lol. Got sidetracked by getting Affinity working

Time to put on a vinyl and pop a VCR tape into my VHS player

Guh someone made a fix for Affinity in Wine not saving settings, one of the main lingering bugs with it: https://github.com/seapear/AffinityOnLinux/issues/93#issuecomment-3505581754

@nytpu should've been called NoACID as in "I don't want Atomic, Consistent, Independent, Durable transactions"

“NoSQL” stands for “you do NOt want to use this instead of SQL”

Fedi: for “humans”, by dragons

M. Night Shyamalan's famous movie about a beach that makes you dragon

GLaDOS watching _Portal 2_ least-portals speedrunners mindlessly jumping on a turret for thirty minutes until they magically warp spacetime to teleport through a door

when the former-human's arms are wings, pls do this to me btw

Zero turian art on N7 day how is that legal. Although at least the less-popular _Mass Effect_ species are getting some appreciation

Okay, I think I'm declaring this done. I'm pretty happy with it even though there's some things where i couldn't quite figure out how I wanted them to look. (Remember, this is literally the first piece of vector art I've done in 8–10 years, plus I'm terrible at […] [Original post on tilde.zone]

Just to experiment I exported this artwork as a WebP in the “best” quality setting at the same resolution as a JPEG XL and a JPEG both at 85 quality, and HOLY FUCKING SHIT WEBP RUINED IT. Like, not even minor nitpicky things, the colors are significantly distorted (like, why did it even do […]

Shrimp are the kobolds of crustaceans

Saw _Bugonia_ today, absolutely fantastic. I haven't caught up on any of Yorgos Lanthimos' films since _The Killing of a Sacred Deer_ , so it was interesting to see the contrast. Still great style but the acting and entire film was a lot more grounded, it wasn't viscerally unsettling and surreal […]

I don't think enough people acknowledge how mushroom-centric the Mario franchise is

Is it a good or bad thing that the British put all their skill points into “deadpan comedy TV” instead of “food recipes”

It's amazing that non-furries can stomach following me

No Noivern November for me (because I was gonna resume playing Ultra Moon but my noibat still needed like 18 levels to evolve)

Ears: wiggling, wings: flapping, tail: swishing, talons: grabbing

It's weird how red junglefowl superficially look exactly like chickens and yet are physiologically so different (e.g. they can actually fly)

The urge to do my vector art in LAB color space for no reason (it's all colors I choose, it's not like photo editing where you want to keep the full tonal range read from the sensor throughout processing until the final step, since they still exist in the data even though they can't be […]

The Python ecosystem still feels as terrible as Lua in the sense of feeling like a “scripting language that has tooling poorly bolted on to try and be a ‘real programming language’” (e.g. no good or standard build system, no good or standard way of installing programs, no helpful tooling for […]

There's been several instances recently where I've really wanted to recommend _In Flux_ by JAMIEvx to someone, but I can't really in good conscience recommend something with latex fetish furry art as the album cover to, forgive me, “normal people” lol

Tall, pointy ears to swivel. A big, fluffy tail to wag. Yes, yes, I'd like those things

Uh, guys, it might be time for me to relearn vector art (https://github.com/seapear/AffinityOnLinux) This is honestly really really really hype for me

Bust for Teebs! 🐦 Love this character's design so much #art #furry

It's weird how _Bookends_ by Simon and Garfunkel is only one LP and it stuck so strongly to the theme/concept on side one, but then side two is just random-ass unused songs they had lying around. Like, with two or three LP albums you get a side of throwaway songs if they only have three/five […]

I love when people argue against a technology that has a flawed IRL implementation, while supporting a theoretical perfectly implemented version of something, ignoring what they're arguing for also has an IRL implementation that ended up even worse (Currently in regards to literally everyone […]

You know a video is from 2009 when it has “high quality” in the video title and it's 360p

waypipe is much harder to use than it needs to be because XDG and the common GUI toolkits depend on an incomprehensible web of (usually completely undocumented) environment variables and you just have to fuck around until you find the correct incantation for each individual application (or whole […]

“I have no memory of this place” — ~ ~~Gandalf~~ ~ nytpu reading sections of the UEFI specification every 8–12 months but forgetting 90% of it because he never actually writes a real UEFI application

Why is the world in love again? Why are we marching hand in hand? Why are the ocean levels rising up? It's a brand new record for 1990 They Might Be Giants' brand new album Flood

I want to update my bio a bit but I keep avoiding it because it's at 520 characters while if I update it, it'll be stuck at 500 characters since tilde.zone lost the patched character length after some update

Hmm I should make a virtual console using the UEFI bytecode VM as its architecture XD https://uefi.org/specs/UEFI/2.11/22_EFI_Byte_Code_Virtual_Machine.html

Does anyone know what time source OSes use for “high-resolution timers” on x86-64 systems? AFAICT there are two main modern high-precision timers, the HPET and the TSC (a.k.a. `rdtsc` and the more recent `rdtscp`). From what I can tell OSes use the HPET to trigger context switches, but the […]
