since 3d graphics are generally harder to do than 2d graphics, it never ceases to feel weird to us that the n64 wasn't powerful enough to do 2d games

Mathematics is not, except on the most superficial of levels, about numbers.

I don't have any context for this, it's just something I felt like saying.

aaaa. down to $30 for the rest of the month until we get paid on monday

money is Bad

you ever just feel restless but also too tired to actually do anything because that's me right now

I call myself aromantic but really I don't know if I have no romantic interest in anyone or if I have romantic interest in literally everyone who isn't a dick

I don't know if there's even a meaningful difference

why is it so difficult, when there's a free and a paid version of some random software, to figure out what the *difference* between the free and paid versions is

like I know the free version is going to be limited, but how is it limited? do I get a limited-time trial? is it some features are locked out? is it just going to tell me "hey you should buy this" every so often but do nothing to enforce that like winrar? or is it just a case of "free for personal use but businesses have to pay"?

the worst thing about this whole naming scheme is that we've never actually played through all of final fantasy 8

it has some really fantastic music though

we recently got a new laptop as a gift from our parents, to replace our current falling-apart one

this means that we have now gone through all the computer names we had lined up and I don't know what the next one will be called

Our previous laptop was fithos, the current soon-to-be-replaced one is lusec, our desktop is wecos, and the new one is vinosec

Accessibility question: When captioning videos, is it better to:

caption everything recorded, even including "um, well this one" and "so you have your err.. ah, that thing, and uh, this one over ah, here"

or caption only what was intended, as "this one" and "so you have that thing, and this one over here"

(obviously in either case egregious mistakes would be pointed out as "so you have that thing [those things]" if it's important to understanding what's being said)

now that the switch lite has a good dpad do you think they'll make joycons for the switch heavy that have a good dpad too

bonus points if it can also lock window sizes so they can't be accidentally resized

Is anyone aware of any sort of program you can run in the background that like, snaps windows to screen edges and stuff other than displayfusion, which has really annoying "upgrade to pro" messages that pop up at random?

I am talking about something that will align the edge of a window to the edge of the screen if you drag the window close enough to the edge, *not* the half-assed window snapping that windows has now where you can make it take up half the screen

if you remove half of every letter, which half leaves the words most legible? top? bottom? left? right?

ghhh

getting this new laptop all set up is an Intimidating and Overwhelming quantity of Stuff

Rosemary's been playing Dragon Quest games lately and I really appreciate some of the puns in it

in dragon quest ix, the place you go to change vocations (DQ's answer to FF's job system) is called Alltrades Abbey, and it's presided over by Abbot Jack--Jack of Alltrades

but the pun doesn't stop there; Abbot Jack gets exposed to a magic artifact that turns him into a monster, and takes on the name Master of Nu'un

I think it mostly counts as "should have gone to sleep hours ago" art
