Hey fedi.

Let's try not to be dickheads to the newcomers this time around, ok?

@Are0h oh no! What happened last time? People were pretty nice here on gamedev

Best superpower? A spell which...

A: Refills any glass with a copy of whatever drinkable liquid was last poured into it
B: Makes something not experience time until you revert the effect
C: Makes a copy of anything. Works once per object and not at a copy

@quirk not sure about the area, but you need to target each individually

The absolutely worst thing about Mastodon is how difficult it is to find/follow someone, especially if they're on a different server.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@jonikorpi thank you! I'll try that

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@Yaktaur I really feel it could have been handled better. Not sure exactly how tho.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@LottieVixen Sometimes it seems to fail tho. With some formats it doesn't show up?

Best superpower? You cannot leave a 15x15 kilometer area of your choice. But within this area, you decide every single aspect of urban planning, as long as your requests are humanly possible. You can delegate responsibility if you wish.

@byobattleship I actually think I could do a thing out of it that would be really good for people. But I'd definitely need smarter people than me who could advise me how to practically pull it off.

Best superpower? You discover a hard drive. It appears to have every news article on it in all of existence, even ones from the future. Unfortunately, knowing the future still seems to make it impossible to change the trajectory.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@mogwai_poet It absolutely does!

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@mogwai_poet That practically guarantees an article with this information won't exist. The future completely shapes itself to be unchangeable.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@Erikmitk Yeah! It's a very tough decision!

Best superpower? A new feature is added to your programming language of choice!

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@Xibanya Yeah! I kinda feel like +-= is the worst one, because it's the easiest one to type in by accident and have it successfully compile. So you'd have to debug the longest to figure out what went wrong.

@and0 This one combines them into one. It first adds the number, then subtracts the number.

Please, more international press about our Finnish nazi ministers.

@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@PetriPurho Yeah, let's hope it does! In Sweden, the right has teamed up with the "Sweden Democrats" (they are what they sound like). Unfortunately it seems pretty stable too.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@PetriPurho Oh shit :( This sort of thing is really happening a lot in Europe lately!

Sorry about yesterday on twitter. I'm not mentally doing too well. I have depression and anxiety, and a thing happened that triggered a self-hate episode.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@Vellidragon Aw, thank you!

Best superpower? A time machine. It can travel to the past and the future. Would you like:

A: The model where you can make changes to time
B: The model that ensures the timeline stays the same

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@john @buckysrevenge i mean yeah! But time machine isn't constant rate tho :)

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@buckysrevenge Yeah, as many as you want!

What the fuck is wrong with all the billionaires? If I had a billion dollars I’d shut up and you’d never hear of me again.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@jzillw @sos i mean, there's a survivorship bias there. People who wouldn't hoard don't become or stay billionaires. So I think a lot of people are way better and more generous than billionaires. But that's why they aren't ones

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@jzillw @sos it's not the money that corrupted them. They got so much money because they were hoarders and exploiters

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@sos yeah! I'd keep a small fraction for myself, donate the rest, and make games/thingies and release them under a pseudonym as freeware.

Then again, that'd pretty quickly make me a non-billionaire again

codeandgin, to twitter

Since is circling the infinite drain slightly deeper now, time for an post.

Hi 👋 I'm Diarmaid. I tend to go by CodeAndGin online. I am a . Well, an unemployed one anyway.

@codeandgin hello and welcome :) indie developer person there! I do the things and the stuff, especially adaptive music and code

moshelinke, to random German

god i hate that this platform has different servers. feels more secluded and not beneficial for building a community :/

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@moshelinke Yeah! I mean, you can follow people across servers, but picking a server and using the UI to cross-follow is a major hurdle.

moshelinke, to random German

poking my head into the mastodon door again. anyone here?

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@moshelinke I'm here \o/ Gonna try to be more active here in the future!

Timecrimes is a fun movie. The obvious comparison is with Primer but it's enjoyable without you having to have a brain the size of a planet.

Nifflas,
@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@dpiponi If you haven't, make you watch "Beyond the infinite two minutes" too. Just so you see the entire trilogy!
