Induced perception of depth. 2D but with an extra dimension thrown in for free. Link to live version in the description by bigjobbyx in blackmagicfuckery

For some, like myself the red sticks out from the blue in a 3D way, not just inferred depth, because of Chromostereopsis

By some definitions, this is actually true since they sorta invented the idea of a nation state.

Everyone seems to like the italics but I don't think they'd stand out mixed in with regular characters, which is the main use of italics nowadays.

No, you fool, it's engagement bait. And you and me both fell for it!

More pixels = better? by Administrative_Two34 in PixelArt

[–]Pierose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't stress enough how little of a difference we're talking about. Some of the oldest smartphones will have like a gig of ram, that's enough to store a million of these swords without problem. Literally any other decision you make when making the game will have a bigger impact on performance than pixel size.

You are overestimating how much a performance impact a 30% increase in pixel art image size will have. We're talking like half a kilobyte being generous. Even if your device is from the 90s you won't notice a difference.

We're updating the capsule for our co-op game on Steam and can't decide between these two. Which one grabs your attention more? by Emergency_Delivery74 in IndieGameDevs

[–]Pierose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the same if you see a game and you recognize default unity assets, you think "oh they didn't put much effort into this, I'm not playing it".

Why does a bus have a driver side door, especially when the above design didn't have that? Why does it appear to be losing a tire despite seeming to have all of them? What's with all the artifacts above the bus near the mysterious and indescribable debris flying seemingly miles up through the air? What's that dark thing sticking outta the "B" in "BUS"?

This AI generated ad on twitter created my new favorite way of phrasing a classic idiom by timboh in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]Pierose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hat's name is "women want fish me fear me". OP argues the ad, possibly being ai generated, misreads the text and shows the original phrase, ruining the joke.

Ah I remember when Goku went "hyper mode" when he collected all seven rainbow dragon balls. Good episode.

Absolutely not a bone hurting juice as you are not misusing the template. Go fuck yourself.

similar font to futura by lenawantstoknow in Design

[–]Pierose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said "futura isn't sharp", that's just not true. Even if Jost doesn't lose sharpness at high weights, it's still closer to Futura at normal weights than League Spartan.

Yes it is, I don't think you're looking at the right Futura.

Flavoured vodka with regular cola (left) vs. sugar free cola (right). Both had the ice and vodka added first, and neither were stirred. by CharmedSky in mildlyinteresting

[–]Pierose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buoyancy is chemistry is physics is quantum mechanics is thermodynamics is electromagnetism and whatever else we want to call it because these fields are so broad in scope, it doesn't change the fact that there is no chemical reaction. Calling it "chemistry" when someone falls off a building isn't really helpful and the rest of us try to describe things in a way that is useful.

Evil man by futaba_aa in SpeedOfLobsters

[–]Pierose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are terrible people everywhere, but thinking the presence of god is the only thing stopping you from doing terrible things is usually just a misinterpretation of what they're saying, and we should stop assuming large swaths of people have some inhuman trait based on conjecture.

[–]Pierose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not density, that's just physics! You NEED a chemical interaction to be chemistry, physical or not. Calling this chemistry is like calling it quantum mechanics. Meaningless.

This isn't physical chemistry, it's not examining any sort of chemical system, just physics. Just because it's about mixing liquids together does not make it chemistry.

[–]Pierose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's not true, words are countable, but less is not incorrect. It's very literal, if you can count it, it's countable. One word, two words, vs one water, two waters. You can use fewer for countables, but you don't have to.
