The nature of humanity is that every so often someone accidentally invents LeftPad again

Like seriously, senators getting arrested just for attending a press conference? "We're going to liberate these cities"? Am I going crazy or does this just sound like gearing up for a coup.

I just checked and saw another one of my art pieces had the trans_lore tags removed. Again.

I also personally really have issues with the tagging system wrt inclusiveness, but then when I try and voice those opinions I always get pushback from people so :/

but also LMAO at "competitive salary". Max amount listed would straight up just not even cover everything.

"Don't you oppressed minorities understand the pain I have to endure by having to read a different book?"

At this point the big players aren't just putting their eggs in one basket, they're draining their life savings accounts & mortgaging off the house to go all in on a bet

The VDP1+2, on the other hand, sits in the unfortunate intersection of "pain in the ass to code" and "also kinda subpar compared to the PS1 and N64"
I don't really fault Sega for it, I just think quads ended up being really poor choice in hindsight compared to triangles

Incredible choice, no notes.

Everybody: "Wow it really sucks that the Switch only had two themes, they should really add custom themes in their next console"
Nintendo: "I'll pretend I didn't see that"

Really cool work on Nintendo's part to have a game where you can play against up to 23 other random players online
And then deciding not to add any kind of party system to that.

You can implement basic reverb and chorus. You can implement a high pass filter & do that cool effect Sonic Generations does when you boost. You can implement a realtime audio analyzer.

Yeah that looks fun as hell, will most likely snag on PS5 or PC.

I'm sorry, it was my fault for not ensuring my joke had 100% perfectly logical implications with no exceptions or edge cases.
An unforgivable crime, really.

Me: "Wow, a task system! I can just put all of my intensive logic in tasks and run those in the background! Dang, so easy!

Decent compression ratio vs audio quality, & quite fast even for such limited hardware
It's a very handy format!

I found the ability to queue up an arbitrary number of requests notable - this kind of stuff was a lot trickier on PSX homebrew, since the APIs I was using didn't really abstract anything & you had to manually ensure you didn't try and issue more than one drive command at a time.
comment in response to
post
As far as I'm aware they get serviced in the order they were queued in, and only one is serviced at a time, so one really big request could still starve other requests, but keeping requests small & granular should avoid that

Can even queue up a bunch of reads from multiple files, then just poll each one to check when they're done, all without blocking the main CPU.
Handy for if you need to do stuff like, say, load map data while you're simultaneously streaming background music from disc.
