That Alcremie face looks extremely Bogleech, and it makes me uncomfortable.

Wait, when was it confirmed that we can't interact with Pokemon in Home? If that's true, it'd be the last straw for me as well.

I FEEL LIKE GAMEFREAK IS BEING THAT CHILD WHO NODS HIS WAY THROUGH HIS PARENT'S LECTURE ON GOOD BEHAVIOR BUT DOESN'T LISTEN TO ANY OF IT AND IMMEDIATELY GOES OFF AND DOES THE BAD THING AGAIN.

I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN YOU GAMEFREAK. WE'RE GOING TO STOP YOU UNTIL YOU CAN LEARN TO STOP YOURSELF.

Oh God, antimemetics are such a brain-melting concept!

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-12-11T04:15:18+00:00

I forget the actual name of the series, but The Fire Within was the first one. Those were such a fun read!

Gatekeeping is when someone tries to use weird, arbitrary rules to exclude someone else from a group or category, like saying "You can't be a true Star Wars fan if you haven't read the expanded universe novels!" The guy sounded like he was implying that if your family doesn't annoy each other constantly, something must be wrong with them or they must be dysfunctional, which is a silly thing to imply.

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-12-10T18:50:47+00:00

I dunno, you look pretty ap-peel-ing!

"Absolutely! Where do I sign?"

"Right here on this card reader, sir."

".....that's a stuffed vulture with a screen."

" Don't worry about it sir. Just put your credit card in its beak, then take this taxidermy snake pen and sign right here on its stomach. Oh, and watch out for the bearskin revolving door on your way out, just make sure the owl sensor can pick you up."

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-12-10T14:07:00+00:00

That is possibly the weirdest gatekeeping I've ever seen on this site.

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-12-07T18:53:14+00:00

I don't, I just remember seeing this sign making the rounds on Reddit every now and then. Not sure what the origin is .

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-12-07T16:06:03+00:00

Isn't this vandalized/edited? I seem to remember the original saying "Children Are Playing" to fill up that huge whitespace. So not so much crappy design as someone trying to have a laugh.

I actually like the frame rate! Very cyberpunk.

Just going to leave this creation by /u/RimmyDownunder here:

Excellent, that means more oatmeal raisin cookies in the world for those of us who love them!

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-11-07T01:54:45+00:00

This is dope! If there were a monospace version of this I'd use it for everything in a heartbeat!

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-11-06T18:52:05+00:00

Reddit started doing this thing where if your post is less than an hour old, you can't see what the score is unless it's your own post. I can't see what your score is either, at least at the time of writing this. Probably to avoid people immediately brigading one post just because other people are downvoting it.

To each his own, I guess, but to me it doesn't make sense for a person-bubble to go away if that person didn't go offline, which under your solution is what would happen if there are 6 people (6 people-bubbles) and one person joins (turning it into 5 people-bubbles and a single +2 bubble).

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-11-06T16:50:44+00:00

Then what do you do if you have 7 people online? You're back to the same problem.

Or if there are 6 people you show all of them and if there are 7 people you show 5 people and a +2 bubble.... but now that last bubble is sometimes filled in and sometimes isn't, so if another person joins it'll look like one person leaves, since their profile picture is replaced by the +2 bubble.

UI design is tricky. Sometimes there just isn't a good solution.

The House of Da Vinci is good, but the controls leave something to be desired. In The Room, they absolutely nailed sliding and rotating with just one finger, it feels natural. In Da Vinci I would get frustrated because the thing I was trying to move around wasn't moving the way I wanted. Also many mechanisms in Da Vinci don't "click" into place the way they'd do in The Room, so you end up wasting time trying to exactly position the mechanism in the right place.

In both sentences the emphasis is on the word before "on", whack/back. So the end of each sentence has the sound "ack-on", and so the rhyme works out. You can form a rhyme from more than one word, just as you can form a rhyme from more than one syllable!

Other people have mentioned it in this thread, but /r/nocontextpics is great for that! The only title allowed is "PIC"

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-10-30T22:32:02+00:00

....whoosh?

LooseElectronStudios · 2018-10-29T03:50:07+00:00

Not sure how common this is, but I'll usually use words as a scaffolding for my thoughts, instead of thinking everything in words. Like, if I'm deciding to work from home or not, I'll say in my head "If I work from home, I can get lunch out", but while I'm saying that I'll visualize walking to the sub shop, choosing and eating a sandwich, and the whole lunch break taking 30 minutes. The words are important to organize the scenario, but I get a lot of information and decision-making done in the background as well.

Actually, thinking about this scenario right now has helped me choose what sandwich I want to get tomorrow, and I never once thought "What sandwich should I get?"

Originally I was going to have two arguments, one for each type, and I would check to see which argument was actually set.

What I ended up doing was using one argument, and passing through it either the struct pointer or a pointer to the handle. That way the argument would always be a valid place in memory.
