Linode Merger/Buyout

16th February 2022

Sad/nervous about this. Been a customer for 12 years and they've always been great. Being ''independent'' (privately owned rather than shareholder owned) was always something they used as a selling point. Hopefully they continue being good and *snip*

Unicode vs Code

19th December 2021

Python 2 *wasn't* 8 bit - it supported Unicode. Just really really awkwardly!!!
Even in C, you can usually treat everything as utf-8 and it's fine too

Unicode vs Code

After the ’’Place the Countries’’ thread I remembered some of you guys (Afr0 especially) are always interested in weird Welsh language stuff so here's my trouble with Welsh and Python 2! Hope its of interest Linkage

Movie Accident

22nd October 2021

Apparently a lot of the unionised staff walked off THAT MORNING over safety issues, including gun safety issues
And the movie company bought in scab labour that day to replace them
It really does sound like they were cutting corners on safety and I hope *snip*

Quake Memories

24th June 2021

The new early access Quake isn't too bad, unfortunately it makes me motion sick like nothing else.
I miss Unreal Tournament 2004 and you can't beat the feel of the old Quake 3 engine games.

Age of Empires 4

12th April 2021

I know exactly what you mean. The fighting part isn't as fun as the cute little villagers with their farms and castle walls. I have the same trouble when I play Civ!
Quite enjoy the first Tropico game for that reason

How to achieve this background terrain effect

12th April 2021

If any part is 3D, then there's definitely a mix - the trees, houses and major roads are definitely just flat 2D overlays., the roads/traintrack might be a triangle strip along a bezier curve maybe, but still 2D and overlaid.
You can see the houses th*snip*

How to achieve this background terrain effect

11th April 2021

I think you might be right about it being 3D with a nice shader Jay. Pics 2 & 4 make me think that.
I don't need quite the same level of detail - im gonna be covering everything with 3D grasses - but I'd really like to have mud patches loo*snip*
