"Just a whisper. I hear it in my ghost."

fanart of the main character from Ghost in the Shell, major Kusanagi
she's sitting on her bed, in a room that's filled with monitors and computers, linked to them by cables plugged in the back of her neck
she's bathed in a red light coming from outside, also sparks of green from the computers and tech stuff
she has one leg bent, arm around it
she's looking straight at you, but also kinda through you

Put my Lancer custom status markers up on krzchn.itch.io/krzchnlancer... if anyone would like to use them! :> It's pay-what-you-want bc I don't like paywalling my stuff. But if you do use them and like them (and can afford it of course) tips are very appreciated since I still have no stable income!

an array of custom status token markers for Lancer, designed by me.

We hit LL2 and unveiled our new frames last session, so now I get to share it with everyone eheh :> Way out of my comfort zone but quite pleased with the result! #art #lancer #lancerrpg

Artwwork of a custom mech for my Lancer pilot. It is an SSC Death's Head, made for long range shooting. The frame looks biomechanical, it is somewhat centaur-like, with a humanoid torso poking out of the rear instead of the front. The plating doesn't cover all of it, showing exposed wiring and inner pieces. It's holding a long rifle that has a makeshift quality to it, with pieces crudely bolted together. It seems to be fueled through the inner core of the mech, through tube coming out of its rear, somewhat like a tail.
On the shoulder of the humanoid part is standing its pilot (and designer), my Lancer Letho.

Also, on a more serious note: The fact that every page is unique and the simple to-the-point wording made Mörk Borg the easiest RPG for me to learn. When I'm looking for something in the book, I can very quickly find it at a glance, because I know what the page looks like!

Wait, this is basically an optimising compiler that is allowed to do whatever it wants if it's able to optimise the code at all, right?

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 28/04/2026

I love the implication that a valid compiler would be able to determine that a shorter program exists

Hi again, #PortfolioDay ✨👋 I'm a Ukrainian pixelartist drawing a variety of things strange, horrible and enchanting 🖤 Open for commissions :) Patreon with early access to my art: www.patreon.com/c/lordsovorn Contact: @lordsovorn here, tumblr or ourclaritythemoon@gmail.com #pixelart #украрт

A pixelart drawing of a "priest", whose bald featureless head with two almond-shaped yellow eyes is angled slightly more than 90 degrees to the side. The head is surrounded by a bright yellow halo, and the figure is making strange gestures in front of their face

Pixelart of a skeleton saint marching forwad out of a dark background, her skull surrounded by a halo, a gesture of incorporeal open palms, clouds parting above her head to reveal descending light. Her right hand is covered in wax and raised in a blessing gesture, a candle flame burning above the index and middle finger. White garment is draped over a decidedly non-skeletal silhouette, and with her left hand the saint tucks it out of the way to reveal crimson blood swirling around her bones and shaping into a body made of blood (knee high at the moment)

To her right a sword hangs on a string, and to her left - three red teardrop outlines.

Pixelart of the giant Mongolian Death Worm from Dandadan - an enormous earthworm "staring" at the viewer from among the ruins with its eye-like maw of human teeth, surrounded by a circle of tentacle/rays/eyelashes, radiating an aura/korona/iris of dazzling, nauseating yellow light

Detailed pixelart of a big* fluffy velvet spider with dark little beady eyes looking perfectly innocent and cute

* - regular sized, just very up close

I don't know if it's one of your inspirations, but I'm reminded of Space Station Silicon Valley for the N64 The game is all about taking control of robotic animals kitted out with wheels, wings, cannons and stuff. The cartoony physics in your video is very reminiscent of some of SSSV's movement tech

Did you know you can read all of Flying Saucer Video so far right here in this thread?? Or the linked website!! It’s a story about a video rental store going out of business, told thru the lens of a romcom (with a hint of tragedy) 💞 it’s been a difficult project but I’m pretty proud of it

I just finished disk three last night and I've been enjoying this a lot!

No, but I'm slapping that card down anyway

010

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

I think the main roadblock is that there's no money in it. Hardware companies still want to sell their gear, and it's hard to sell a software upgrade that doesn't add new features. Companies like Apple are even incentivised to ship software updates that make new hardware necessary.

210

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

But that does open the door to a reverse Moore's law. What if instead of relying on hardware getting more powerful over time, we spent a little bit of developer effort into optimising already shipped code to allow the same hardware to run a few more tasks in parallel, or run a more demanding game?

100

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

It's also important to realise that better hardware allows us not only to do more, but also do the same things easier. When I write software today, I don't need to worry about CPU cycles and fine-tuned memory. Laziness isn't the full explanation, better hardware is also developer quality of life

100

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

I saw a talk a while back about inverting Moore's law. It stemmed from Andy & Bill's law: what Intel gives us, Microsoft takes away. Some people rag on modern software, saying that old computers were faster and snappier, but that's oversimplifying and seeing the past with rose tinted glasses

110

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

I would certainly like that. Historically though, the main force for selling new phones has been upgrades rather than replacing damaged phones, so even if our culture continues to trash devices due to small damage, I can see new device adoption slowing down dramatically if there are no upgrade paths

110

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

I also think that with the current economic climate, people want to hold on to their devices longer, so even if more powerful devices are available, it's important to keep targeting lower brackets to not lose market share

000

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

I can't quite see it go down, solely because there won't be any consumer demand for new devices that are weaker than their current device. Stagnation is a huge possibility though, similar to the years after the GTX10X0 GPUs were released, and then a bunch of GPU shortages.

210

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

The optimisation question is complicated. If the game runs well on the minimum target hardware, then there's nothing to worry about. That said, "running well" includes not draining a phone's battery or being able to run while music is playing on YouTube and chatting on Discord

120

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 13/03/2026

The attitude around technical proficiency in games really bothers me. It's not just optimisation, it's quality and reliability too. It's become accepted that games are buggy. This is fine at an amateur level, but we're supposed to be professionals, why aren't we doing professional quality work?

211

gaeel @gaeel.spaceshipsin.space · 11/03/2026

I was about to jokingly reply something along the lines of "it all depends on what you agree to in session zero", but then I clicked through and read the thread. This is wild wtf!?
