This must be the first time I see them shrink the font size to fit more words

LiveSplit One now supports adding nested rows and columns of components to layouts, allowing for much more complex layouts.

Amazing news! @cryze92.bsky.social, who is a big part of the team over at LiveSplit, has built integration to therun from LiveSplit One. That means you can now get live stats and therun integrations right from your browser. CryZe created the video below. Everyone say thanks to CryZe!!!

TIL that English does not always use . as the decimal separator. Unicode actually defines region specific variants of English (such as en-DE, i.e. the English spoken in Germany) with , as the decimal separator and the OSes / browsers actually base their formatting on that.

It looks like they incorporated Zonai-esque patterns into the new tunic design.

Nice little easter egg on Duolingo

Age of Imprisonment can just straight up stream a full second screen at 60 FPS to a second player on a Switch 1. That‘s crazy.

Seems like they have an entire speedrun in there.

TW: suicide Sooo… I really don‘t know what to do about this. We have someone in the Rust Discord that claims they are going to end their life confessing their love to their project manager at Microsoft tomorrow. Like they might be trolling, but if not, this should probably be reported right?!

Ludwig's FAST 52 is so entertaining. They did a really good job so far.

Rc / Arc are the real CoW types (they have „methods“ for that use case).

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

Also (one of) the word(s) for husband is 主人 which is the Korean 주인 which means "owner" 🤨

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

Oh god all the different words for the family members in Japanese are so confusing. They distinguish between who is talking to who, so there's lots of different words. And then there's this weird thing, where the words for uncle and aunt suddenly mean grandfather and grandmother if you add "-san"

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 23/08/2025

Look into target features, here‘s an example from my code: github.com/LiveSplit/Li...

My language wasn't set to Japanese, so it's a bug regardless. Though going from 0 to 11 makes so much more sense mathematically, that I don't actually mind.

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 20/08/2025

When I was playing DK Bananza I noticed my save file says it got saved at 0:30 a.m. I thought I discovered a bug (0 a.m. instead of 12 a.m.). But as it turns out that's just straight up a thing they do in Japanese. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12-hour...

Apparently it‘s so bad, you can start a lesson without a sufficient amount of energy and no warning, so you have to quit midway through, discarding all the progress.

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 02/08/2025

I finished the Korean to Japanese course on Duolingo. Just in time for them to downgrade the service even further where you now lose hearts (now called energy) regardless of whether you make mistakes or not.

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 30/07/2025

TIL there's "three" endings to DK Bananza.

To highlight why it's the better choice than sRGB, I extended the comparison to use colors. sRGB completely fails at blending green text on top of the red background and has dark anti aliased regions, whereas the others handle it correctly, but fail at preserving the text weight (except my "Oktext")

030

You simply take Oklab and replace it's 3.0 gamma with 2.2 for text. It's the best of all worlds, as it preserves most of Oklab's advantages, but works well for text (weight should look the same as sRGB). From top to bottom: Oklab, sRGB, linear, "Oktext":

110

As it turns out Oklab is not suited for text as it also does not correctly preserve the weight of the text. sRGB is actually the best that we got. However, you will need to blend colors, so sRGB actually does an awful job. So I came up with "Oksrgb" / "Oktext" (?). (next post)

110

For text you have the huge problem that rendering it in linear space causes the text to have a weight issue. Black text on a white background will appear thinner than white text on a black background. So you want to do it in a perceptual color space instead. (next post)

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 14/07/2025

I've been looking into color spaces, and it's actually super complicated which one is ideal for which situation. I've come to this conclusion: - Color definitions: Oklch - UI gradients: Oklab - 3D: Linear - Alpha Blending: Possibly linear? - Anti Aliasing for Text: They are all bad, check next post

Can you elaborate a little more?

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 13/07/2025

Or even JavaScript has `using` now.

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

Yeah it's weird how Korean managed to have perfectly consistent readings for all the Chinese characters, and then in Japanese they were like whatever, let's have like 10 readings xD

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

I expected the most difficult part of learning Japanese to be all the Kanji... but it turns out that's somehow the easiest part?! I have never gotten a even a single one wrong so far. Katakana however is like 100x more difficult xD (But that's only because the course completely skipped over it xD)

And even further: Toad from the Mario universe in Japanese is called "kinopio", which combines "kinoko" with "Pinocchio".

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 20/06/2025

Just stumbled across some fun Japanese etymology: ki / き / 木 means tree no / の is the possessive particle ("of the / [noun]'s") ko / こ / 子 means child So together this means: child of the tree That's what they call mushrooms (kinoko).

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 20/06/2025

Japanese is so weird. There is no future tense and they use words like こんど which can ambiguously either mean "this time" or "next time". And of course Duolingo is bad and they don't accept the interpretation I chose xD

CryZe @cryze92.bsky.social · 19/06/2025

There‘s so much crocodile imagery in the game though, so entire islands being shaped like that as well doesn‘t sound like too much of a stretch. We‘ve already seen them do this with other parts of the terrain in the game.
