Still working on a lot of things.
Nothing is close to done.
Creative Drive stalled.
I'm looking forward to when the stupidity of society drops to a tolerable level, and I don't care if it takes some cataclysm to achieve it! -
I've mostly been gaming and not really doing too much gamedev. It just so happens that Crystal Clear 2.1 just got released and I'm loving that a lot.

This sucks; for the longest time I've had a direct, easy to access internet modem and now, I have to once again, hook up a wireless USB adapter to my craptastic hardware. The last two times I had to do this before the move, it did not work well, if at all. I expect the same from this adapter.
Why is this happening? Because the purse string puller decided to switch ISPs to 'save' money, that likely will not last, if there's any significant impact at all. I'll no longer have a landline phone, and if this falls through, I'll not have internet access either, as I expect. I'd scream a bunch of vulgarities in all-caps, but that'd likely just have one of the admins mad at me for crap I had no control over.
No, this is not fair. Arguments to the contrary and 'life is not fair' get a 'no' response.
-
You can switch ISPs? You mean you aren't an eternal slave to the whims of comcast? I was under the impression comcast had much of the middle part of the US in a monopolistic stranglehold. Or is it still comcast just a more shitty version?
I would rather avoid bringing fairness into it at all. This is a problem. Let's try and find a solution. I am pretty sure there is one no matter how crappy your hardware is. I mean if someone can get an apple ][e to browse reddit with some tinkering, Surely you can find some way to get it to work if you try.
Also... ... How to put this...
...
Okay... Please listen for a moment. Do me a favor and look at your followers for a moment. I donno about you but on that second row there is a particular pink pony with yellow hair. You know, Rikifive, who I am pretty sure is your friend as well as mine. And also happens to be the most active admin on the site. Now you know me. I have opinions and I have al least once broken the rules gotten in trouble with Riki in the past. So have you if I recall correctly. I have seen tyrant admins before, and while I don't always agree with Riki, they are not one. They have always been understanding. I would even use the word 'fair' to describe them, and you know how much I roll my eyes at that.So here's a question: Do you think I would I stand by their judgement if you did if you did scream a bunch of vulgarities in all-caps and they banned you?
... Let's go back a bit and look at something you said in this very status update.
QuoteI'd scream a bunch of vulgarities in all-caps, but that'd likely just have one of the admins mad at me for crap I had no control over.
So... Here's the thing...
Don't you think that by not screaming a bunch of vulgarities in all-caps so you don't get in trouble... You have in fact proven that if you did do it any admin that did in fact get mad at you would in fact get mad at you for something that you actually did have control over?
You know... For a long time I have sorta been skirting around what I think is an important issue. Because I am really really scared you are going to get really upset with me. Do you remember our little talk about 'cognitive dissidence'? You know when I first heard you complain about it, I admit... I kinda had a thought in my head that went something like: 'I guess as the queen of cognitive dissidence she would know'. But I chickened out from saying it, as I have a lot. I still think what I did end up saying was maybe a little too mean and partly walked it back.
But... yeah. You kinda say things like that a lot. Most people do to be honest. I probably do a ton myself and never really realized it. Or more likely have and passed it off as a dumb joke or me being crazy. Which to be fair to myself, it often is. But I try to be better then that. Or... no. I shouldn't say that. I try to be different to that. Better, worse, I have no idea. Not sure why I should even care. Ha! Even that sounds like I am trying to feel smugly superior by not feeling smugly superior! And maybe I am!
Hehehe... Can you imagine what that does to my self esteem? I would like to imagine that if self esteem could be measured as a number like an RPG statistic, it would be NaN! I am neither better then, worse then, the same as, or different to, everybody else! I want to spread this feeling... Like snugging a big ball of deadly tarantulas! I believe it's possible to accept and understand yourself, even if it means accepting that you and everyone else is totally utterly insane! AND ALSO LOVE IT! Praise Eris!
... Okay that was way too melodramatic and pretty pointless, but I feel better. Also sleepy. Night!
... I'm totally serious though, even if I am still joking. My brain is wonderfully weird and I would totally love to drive everyone in existence totally insane. Well, I mean they already are, but I mean the fun kind of insane, not the unfun kind.

Technically, AT&T is not an internet service provider.
They are a telephone company; it just so happens that they can wire the telephone lines to be used for internet service. Said internet service is provided by Verizon.
As for the wireless USB adapter, for now (YEAH FOR NOW-GIVE IT A FEW MONTHS LIKE THE LAST TWO DAMN TIMES), it works okay. The wireless signal is acceptable, but I will be looking into a wired solution later on. Either that or moving out. Right. Like that's remotely possible.

Anyone need a break?
Here, watch this: -
It's likely that using @Selchar's Durability Affixes breaks @Tsukihime's Item Affixes for any other use.
So, if I wanted to make a prefix to have some piece of equipment be unbreakable, that isn't possible.
Either that, or some compatibility bug is present.
I cannot tell which; I have so many scripts in play, I don't even think dearest love @Kayzee could figure it out, not that it matters since she's more often than not, playing her Switch these days...
If I could get my PS3 working again I'd be okay with that. I'd still have to get a lot of games that were stolen from me back somehow...-
I find that in many scripts a max of zero is often treated as meaning the item doesn't have a max. Really 'nil' works much better, but most people don't really know about it and it's harder to use in notetags. What happens if you just don't give an item durability at all?
Also: If I am understanding how prefixes work correctly, since durability isn't a normal feature/stat on equipment, I bet it would be ignored by prefixes.

I'm glad to see coders dropping their MZ code resources here. Now, if only graphic artists would do the same...
-
So, I took a code dive into Luna Engine for VX Ace.
It's an interesting little thing; kinda wanna see if I could make the main menu screen look different. -
FPLE is actually pretty cool, if a bit cumbersome to work with.

I was referring to this actually, but that probably works just as well if not better.

@Kayzee oh ya, that thing lol.
One of them is designed as a framework for letting other plugin devs define new effects for users so that users don't need to write code. The other is designed to be just "write whatever code you can think of"
The first one, being a framework, requires additional set up. And then you're stuck with limited note-tag parsing option.
The second one, you get multi-line code parsing. Definitely better.

I absolutely enjoy using XP for mapping. It's not a chore at all to switch between map layers. It adds complexity and depth, and to be honest, if someone were to re-code VX/ VX Ace with XP map layers, I'd pay money for that. I don't know why it was removed in the first place.

Chrome 84 is RAM-heavy; currently using Steam's web browser to do some of the internet catchup work, so that I waste less time waiting for Chrome 84 to load X Y and Z crap...
Yeah; until I get better hardware I need all the shortcuts I can get!-

Firefox has TOOONs of extensions and a lot of them are made for both. And really most of the time you 'downgrade' by uninstalling and reinstalling an older version and turning off automatic updates. Most of the time your settings/extensions/whatever don't get deleted when you uninstall stuff just in case you need to do something like that.

Gamedev challenge idea thingy:
What is a trader's hub, but a bunch of misfits that have the same goals? -
Honest question:
Do you hate me?-

@Kupotepo ...?
OBJECTION!
*slams hand on desk*
You say you are new, and yet your profile said you joined last year!
*suddenly music starts playing from nowhere as speed lines appear behind her*
Clearly a contradiction in your testimony!
...
...
*music slows down and stops*
Okay okay, I am just messing around. :P You probably haven't actually been active for very much and I for one wasn't offended at all! Besides you have 'Kupo' in your name, meaning your obviously a Moogle and therefor are too cute to get mad at. :3 *cuddles kupotepo*

Where I currently reside is not far from an incinerator capable of burning people to ash.
Con-Vid-19 won't take me alive.
May the Divines guide us all...-
... You know incinerators are totally overkill for Covid-19. Just saying. Also throwing yourself in an incinerator is probably going to be a lot more painful and deadly then what covid-19 is likely to do anyway.
Shit like this is really not helping anyone you know, least of all yourself.
-
It may not be necessary, but that's not why they'd do it.
They'd destroy evidence, destroy biometrics, basically all the bodies burned would be unidentifiable, and that's why they're using them. They've been actively using them here and there for the past couple of months.
No; if I fail to fend this off, I'll use a high place and gravity to end it all. -
... Why would they bother hiding any evidence when apparently this is such a big conspiracy everyone already knows about it anyway?
Also, still not helping. Am I doing anything but encouraging you? If you keep this up I might have to start just ignoring you when you go on like this, otherwise we will just go around in circles.

Looks like MZ is going to sell for about the same price as MV does. I find this interesting.
Of course, as of typing this, it's like, 20% off and not even released yet. It's still too much for me, the disabled, poor and underprivileged to acquire, but, I'm sure it's selling fairly well at the present...
We'll see if that continues... -
I've done some development on Ramsey here and there, but this heat blast has made me miserable...
-
When I first did the free update to Windows 10 back in 2015, it crashed more times in one week than it ever did within the first month of getting this crap-tastic refurbished hardware.
I don't think that this hardware will last much longer, so yeah. If ya wanna help, I accept donations via cash by mail. Otherwise, Ramsey is going to be gone, as well as all my other ambitions/projects. -

Happy Capitalist Holiday. -
Watching them hold Oscar as they gave him the injection...
This has hit me hard. I love my little puggie...and the fact that he was acting like he usually does when being held or picked up made it that much harder on me.....
I honestly thought I'd have a few if not several replies.....
Just goes to show how dead these forums are, but I know I'd get mocked on RMW.
"Hello, bridge. How high above the highway below are you? Oh, thirty feet? I think that'll be sufficient..." -
Well...I'll go into full details in my blog post, but right now I am feeling quite sad...

Always, Sometimes Monsters is one of those games that is more of an interactive story where every decision invokes some form of a domino effect.
It is somewhat unpolished but a good game all the same, and one I'd recommend. -
Would it surprise any of you to learn that I love games like Armored Core?
No? Oh.
Okay then.
As far as gamedev goes, I'm working on poses. it's something I should of already done, but I wouldn't of had a demo release if I did, because I probably would of had forty-plus pose sets for each character, when I only intend to have about eight of them, with only some characters using all eight pose sets.
"What are the pose sets for?"
Mostly the NSFW/Kink-related stuffs, but I intend to have a sleeping/napping pose set.
Pose sets require that I do a lot of pixel editing. Lots, and lots. I'm one person; this is hard as is, plus I have so much else going on at any given time.....
I could of made this a blog, but only one person reads those...#LMAO-
I don't run into many that play Armored Core unless across a group on social media, so yes. A tad surprising in one respect.
Just how many characters are you doing this for or are you doing bases to make it easier? 40 is...a hefty load of time to set aside and get done. Making good sprites isn't fast in the first place, so a project indeed. These personal use, resources or for what you're working on?
-
No, most characters, which would be a total of over twenty.
Of course, I'm nowhere near finished with the first set. I'm still trying to figure out how to make the poses.
It's really hard without any sort of references other than what I'm imagining.
For my game project. If I could actually setup a way to make money on itch.io, I'd also be selling some of these as resource packs. I don't currently have that option, and I may never have that option.

I wanna make this clear to all.
Anarchy is not, I repeat, NOT RIOTING AND LOOTING.
Anyone who believes that chaos and Anarchism go hand in hand, either educate yourself on the matter, or get wrecked.- Show previous comments 3 more

Except you don't actually have a plan for that do you? You say you care too much. That you want to see the suffering of everyone else end. Yet you always always without fail frame it as if there is some source of evil that you can defeat that will solve everyone's problems. To be fair, I do talk about Yaldabaoth a lot, but that's more of a personal battle. And an excuse to make fun of the whole idea. Everyone has to defeat Yaldabaoth themselves. They have to find their own truth. There is no knight in shining armor that can save everyone. Everyone has to save themselves.
If you want to help ease people's suffering, you can go out and do that. But you can't save everyone. But I wonder... Is that even really what you are trying to do? It seems to me like what you end up doing is making an enemy to attack inside your head. Doesn't matter what they actually did or even if they actually are real outside your head or not at all. Any enemy will do. Because you aren't fighting them. You just need them to 'stand up to'. You just need a banner. And while you go off chasing that enemy, no one actually gets any help. Least of all yourself. -
I'm more wondering if the source of misconduct/evil is a number of different things.
I want to see it end, I do. However that comes about, is how it comes about. I'm no damn hero; I don't pretend to be and don't want to be. You once said that 'everyone is the hero of their story', and I say, pleh to that!
There's no correct way to phrase that, but the best way is 'each person is the main character of their story'.
I'm no 'knight in shining armor'/Spider-Man/Wonder Woman; I feel just as badly for them because they throw their own lives under the bus for the purpose of aiding others. I said I want to see the suffering end, and I'd be more than okay with such being from any form of mass-extinction event, as much as I would be with society finally pulling their heads out of their arses and getting rid of government.
I'm not chasing any foe, I'm seeking answers.
