lucid !!

wish i had lucid dreams more often

nah, i can barely even pay attention to uni lectures lol
id rather read the transcript if it has one

yooo been binging japanese rpgmaker horror for the last week
really liked ib and witch's house so fa

(neo scavenger, BuysDB on powder toy , VIP84 on powder toy)

- low res but doesnt use pixel art canons
- little or no antialiasing
- shading through burn/dodge tool
- heavy use of gradients
- pure grays, sometimes pure rgb colors
- gritty but not always
- sometimes janky proportions and perspective

ooo really like midnight pub (gemini://midnight.pub) and especially the writing style of some people, kinda reminds me of a forum i used to go on
i used to read it a lot in school/uni breaks last year cus it uses only miniscule mobile data

someone on another forum i go to made this , a tool with built-in line shake
another poster made a couple of videos using it

woa polska
been listening to some polish songs lately

drawception my home
grew up on this place
then the userbase started to shift and i was entering the cringe saltlord phase of my teenage years and got booted out
but at this point everyone else had left for discord thats where my current friend group is

i also browse knockout forums, basically facepunch 2, mostly for the lmaopics thread and occasional informational videos
im kinda mixed on that place, on one side the things i mentioned, on the other sometimes the place gets extremely doomery

my first ever memory of using a forum was when i was somewhere 6-7 and i went to a russian bionicle forum and being a child instantly covered it in smiley spam and then the whole place shut down. oops.

Salty foods are weirdly delicious.

YES
salty peanuts my beloved

in fact, the first program in this language wasn't even written by a human but rather found through a beam search

That sounds very interesting, can you expand on that? I'm reading up on what a beam search is but kinda lost.

i actually havent quite gotten it either
there's breadth-first search (imagine reading a page and then opening every link in new tab), depth-first (clicking the first link), best-first (links are ordered by some parameter into a queue)
from what i understand from the wiki article this is like the last one but with more memory optimization (the queue is limited in number?)

have you played powdertoy?
now thats a literal sandbox

when our modern animals go extinct and all of our records on researching these animals gets deleted how will the future generations imagine them based on the fossils that where left behind which can look extremely different from the present understanding that the future forgot about. From my understanding on our attempts at imagining Dinosaurs, it can get very inaccurate.

Such an interesting thought! It reminds me of medieval drawings of elephants or lions. Some of them can look quite strange, but I imagine it would be very difficult to find a reference for such exotic animals.. (But realism is overrated anyway, right?)

I think I'm going to be wondering about this question too, now

YES
i love medieval bestiaries
especially the crazier critters like dog-faced men, donkey centaur or the flammable diarrhea beast
or real animals' characteristics like how bears are born blobs that are licked into shape by their mothers or goat's blood dissolving diamond

the thoughts you have in the shower or in the bathroom that you forget the moment you leave the room

black could be used for stealth text readable only with selection, like a spoiler tag
