I like seeing the dev of the SNES core on the Pocket actually telling one of these dudes off. Holy shit.

agg23 commented yesterday
If it works, that's pretty cool; I didn't think
would ever see this implemented (I also didn't
expect LLMs to exist).
However, this is not something you can PR
here, or anywhere. You sent me a nearly 50k
line diff, unasked for, completely LLM built, and
you somehow expect me to review it. There is
SO MUCH unrelated garbage here. Never
minding all of the docs and Python, you've
somehow touched basically all of the upstream
HDL, which already had MSU1 support, so idk
what in the world you're doing.
This kind of behavior is not acceptable. You are
infringing on the time and brainpower of people
by pushing "your" content that little/no of your
brainpower went into; completely unrequested.
I hope for the sake of all responsible
maintainers that you do not do such a thing
again.
Again, I think it's cool that you and your LLM
supposedly got this to work. It has no place in
my world.

Something AI is responsible for that doesn't get enough talk: How, when it scrapes a website to illegally steal everything on it, it uses up a ton of its bandwidth allotment, crashing it or racking up massive fees for site owners.

Happy 137th birthday Nintendo! Nintendo was founded on September 23, 1889 Before they entered the video game market in the 70's, they made Hanafuda playing cards and toys. In 1981, Shigeru Miyamoto released Donkey Kong for the arcades and the rest is history.

It surprises me that the Game Designers Award within Japan Game Awards is ending after 16 years. According to Sakurai, the reason is that “there is no one to replace me”. I hope this doesn’t happen to Smash. 😨 1/

In Mario Kart Wii, asphalt is slightly shiny, reflecting a band of light ahead of the player. This is implemented cleverly by leveraging something that the Wii is already doing, allowing it to not need to use any sort of additional lighting or post-processing.
In Mario Kart Wii, asphalt is slightly shiny, always seeming to reflect light in a narrow band ahead of the driver.
Increasing the contrast of the image makes the effect more visible.
Internally, this effect is achieved in an extremely simple way by leveraging an existing system:
Mipmapping is a practice whereby several copies of a texture are stored, each smaller than the previous by a factor of 2. The further away from the camera a point is, the smaller the texture is that is applied to it. This reduces aliasing (the interference patterns created by viewing high-detail surfaces at oblique angles) and improves rendering speed.
The textures are then smoothly blended. This is supported natively by the hardware and happens automatically.
SLIGHTLY BRIGHTER!
Original road texture: 1024x256 pixels
closer to camera
512x128 pixels
256x64 pixels
128x32 pixels
64x16 32x8 pixels pixels
further from camera
By making only the second texture slightly brighter, the system that automatically places the texture a certain distance away from the camera is leveraged to make a band of light that appears to move automatically with the player.
On the right, each mipmap is colored differently for a more striking demonstration.
Fun fact:
this usage of mipmaps to make a rainbow occurs in Paper Mario on the Nintendo 64!

These are designed for the lower-cost RetroTINK 6x, however they'll also work with the 4K RetroTINK's as well. A common reason to run a 4K TINK in 1080p is streaming, but the most common for

The Disney renaissance movies used to look different. They were planned to be printed on 35 mm film -- that's how they were first released. Modern editions skip that last step in the process. It was a highly developed, overlooked craft, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/disneys-fi...

A teardown of European Switch 2 posted on RedNote/Xiaohongshu provides some additional details. • The Joy-Con battery is now integrated with the battery frame as one unit (img 1). The foam that was previously on the battery (img 2) is now attached to the back shell (img 3). Model# is BEE-004(-01R).

the switch 2 had Drag X Drive like a week after launch. LABO released on their most successful console. Arms was a switch 1 game in the midst of BOTW hype. The historical data points to the opposite, when Nintendo needs a sure win they play it safer and reveal titles much earlier.

it looks like an appropriately dulled sword smithed from unpure metals and locked away for ages in the woods. To me, along w the straw hat, it shows the zelda team being perhaps more thoughtful than ever with environmental storytelling.
