Me: "Hey LLM, can we flip a background-image without using CSS transform?" LLM: "Yes. I'm programmed to make you a happy camper so I will first pretend there is a solution before telling you there is no solution."
The practical CSS-only option without transform is background-size with a negative dimension:

CSS
.element {
background-image: url("image.jpg"); background-size: -100% 100%;
}

Unfortunately, negative background-size values are invalid CSS, so that doesn't work.

Obstetrical anesthesiologist Dr. Virginia Apgar invented the APGAR score, a way to quickly assess the health of a newborn immediately after birth. Her quick evaluation method dramatically dropped infant mortality rates worldwide. She died #OTD in 1974. #WomenInSTEM #MedSky
A black-and-white composite image features two distinct photographs of trailblazing obstetrical anesthesiologist Dr. Virginia Apgar (1909–1974), developer of the lifesaving newborn Apgar score. On the left, a studio portrait shows a close-up of Apgar smiling softly, wearing a dark blazer over a light-colored blouse with a pearl necklace, cat-eye glasses, and her hair styled in soft, white waves. On the right, an action photograph captures her in a clinical setting, wearing a surgical cap, mask tucked under her chin, and eyeglasses. She leans forward intently, gently placing her hand on the head of a tiny newborn infant lying on an examination table. The composition juxtaposes her distinguished professional identity with her direct, hands-on impact in neonatal care. The mood shifts from dignified poise to focused, compassionate medical observation, encapsulating her historical significance in drastically reducing global infant mortality rates.

The worst thing to happen to the consumer the past 20 years is the popularization of the ‘store membership’. I can’t walk into a single market anymore and just get a regular price like everyone else. No, I need to be a member to get your not inflated price. Fuck your memberships and your games.

In the 2 years since I quit Rockstar, me and my friends have shipped an indie game (Void Sols), released a demo (Mouseward), and are putting the finishing touches on our hobby project (Planet Jellham) Really puts into perspective how mismanaged AAA games are, things don't have to be this painful.

If we want to truly accept games as art, we also have to accept that better graphics and more convenient gameplay doesn’t make a game inherently better. Sometimes “ugly” visuals or frustrating gameplay is a core aspect of what makes it.

After all this time looking for it! #humor #math #foundontheinternet #nerdhumor
A beach by a lake in the mountains. Blue sky, trees, pretty water. In the foreground there are the remnants of a tree trunk on its side. Roots are exposed. There are two prominent branches at 90 degrees that have another 90 degree turn in each direction to meet back up in what appears to be a natural rectanglish shape.

The text says, “I finally found it… the square root”.

Can we get people talking generally about visual clarity in games cuz I feel like a lot of games clutter the screen with too much visuals or don't do enough to separate the foregrounds and backgrounds and make it harder to perceive important details. This is stuff I'm even seeing in indie games
