Hah, the same here. That’s why recently I’m avoiding playing videogames at all.

Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew!

Either this is a Heyan-period cat, or eyespots mimetic.

Ok, so in reality the article says that they have made progress on how to glue together battery components to facilitate battery recycling (current solid state battery recycling is messy and complex), but that was a PoC, and they need to see if they can use the process to create high performing batteries.

I mean, I understand why trying to meet a guy doing a bad thing and appealing to them to stop doing said thing might sound like a good action.

That said if the Pope was meeting Hitler em, wait a second…

Ok, nervermind.

Iirc elephants too. Megafauna is either very good fighting cancers, living with them (no metastization) or completely immune to it. That’s called Peto’s paradox, though recently, there was a study that claimed cancer rates are higher than we thought: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/news/2025/feb/bigger-animals-get-more-cancer-defying-decades-old-belief

I wanted a new touchpad spacer. The current ones are garbage.

Dis a pointed!

Oh Danny boy, the heatpipes, the heatpipes are blowing, From bay to bay, across the motherboard.

I’m an expert in fake audiences: From Madden 94 to Madden 25, I’ve seen them all.

This is a pretty good fake audience: I’ll give it a 13. He should try adding Miis. I always like that you could find your friends in Wii games audiences.

Peace in our lifetime!

That stache is a statement alright.

What if I told you that with our advanced security AI agent we can scan your code and … Wait sorry, we just got hacked, nvm.

I know nothing but my recommendation if your motivation is making games: check Game Jams. They tend to have clever people coming with fun ideas and developing them in a short time, so IMO it’s a great way of learning the trade.

As an example, check https://itch.io/jams and filter by “participants” and “featured” to get more mainstream, less adventurous ideas.

Finally, I see casual* game development in two different ways:

• I want to create games so I can become a better developer.
• I want to become a better developer so I can create games.

If you’re on the second case, I’ll recommend getting into Godot or Unity, as they take away a lot of the hard parts in game development while sacrificing some flexibility. There are plenty of options out there beyond these two, but they tend to be the most popular ones for casual* game development.

*Anything beyond casual is beyond anything I know

Lapis lazuli is a metamorphic rock, not a gemstone.

Sorry, I just got carried away in your analogy, like the proverbial brick thrown in to the air by a large machine that is always very precisely almost often sometimes hitting its target.

We are probably ten years away of self-building houses.

Please invest in my company.

Amd you should see the therapeutic effects of brick throwing and the very promising health applications.

You would be amazed of what you can achieve with a well thrown brick.

You don’t get it.

In the past, the brick throwing machine was always failing its target and nowadays it is almost always hitting near its target. It depends on how good you are asking the machine to throw bricks (you need to assume some will miss and correct accordingly).

Eventually, brick throwing machines will get so good that they will rely on gravitational forces to place the bricks perfectly and auto-build houses.

Plus you can vibe build: let it throw some random bricks and start building around. You will be surprised of what it can achieve.
