one of my problems with #Godot is, that it doesn't shows signals that were connected via the UI but targets * no longer exist (mostly renamed) * parameters have changed so I made an addon: Godot Signal Checker @godotengine.org asset library: godotengine.org/asset-librar... #gamedev #indiedev #foss

hows the vibe coding at YouTube going? oh... #YouTube #vibecoding #aislop #sloperator

**TL;DR**
YouTube video player screenshot with a cluttered, overlapping control bar UI, showing playback and settings icons jumbled together over a dimly lit video.

**Description**
A screenshot of a YouTube video player taken from a mobile or desktop browser. The video content behind the controls appears to show a dark electronic device — possibly a gaming console or router — lit with blue light on the left and warm amber/orange light on the right. The overall scene is dim and moody. Overlaid on the video is a yellow/gold horizontal progress bar running across the lower third of the frame. Below it, a row of player control icons appears in a disorganized cluster, seemingly misaligned or incorrectly rendered. Icons include a thumbs up, a share/redirect arrow, a monitor/screen icon, a forward-skip arrow, a pause button, a closed captions (CC) button, a gear/settings icon, and a resize/exit-fullscreen icon. A "Skip" button with a skip-forward icon appears in the upper right corner of the player overlay. The layout feels broken — icons are unevenly spaced and stacked awkwardly, suggesting a UI rendering bug or experimental redesign.

I saw a fair amount of the "make it first" posts yesterday. Coincidentally our designer found an old prototype thread yesterday, that fits the billing pretty well. You've just got to explore ideas, you don't know where they will lead. And yeah, in blue, that's Gonzo from windwaker... 😅

tbh there are a few games I would love to test NVIDIA DLSS5 "on". but AI won't be able to do that properly again I guess... #nvidia #aislop #dlss #dlss5 #nvidiadlss #slopfilter

**TL;DR**
Side-by-side meme comparing a retro pixel-art skiing game (left) to photorealistic Olympic alpine skiing footage (right), labeled "DLSS 5 Off" vs "DLSS 5 On."

**Description**
The image is split into two halves. The left half shows a classic 8-bit video game ski scene on a white background: a small blue pixel skier is centered among scattered green pixel trees and black pixel rocks, with two small red flags marking gates. A score and timer are displayed in the upper right. The art style is minimal and blocky. The right half shows a high-resolution photograph of an alpine ski racer in a white and teal suit carving down a groomed snow slope, with orange safety netting along the right edge, a lift tower visible at the top, and a crowd of spectators in colorful winter gear watching from the left. The contrast humorously implies that Nvidia's DLSS 5 upscaling technology transforms retro-looking graphics into photorealism.

Our second asset is in the @godotengine.org asset library 🎉 A simple but useful modal dialog system. Still needs a bit of features, but its a good start. godotengine.org/asset-librar... #gamedev #indiedev #foss #opensource #godot #Godot4

**TL;DR:** Dark-mode GUI screenshot showing a “Dialog Tester” panel on the left and a “QUIZ” pop-up on the right asking which show a given quote comes from, with four answer buttons.

---

**Extracted text:**

* **Dialog Tester Multiple Options**

* **Data:** ‘1’ **Label:** ‘Dr Who’ **Payload:** ‘<null>’

* **Show Single**

* **Show 3**

* **Show 4** *(highlighted)*

* **QUIZ**

* *From which show is the following quote:*
“You know, the very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common: they don’t alter their views to fit the facts. They alter the facts to fit their views.”

* **Dr Who** **Star Trek**

* **Star Wars** **Pinky & Brain**

---

**Description for a blind person:**

The image is a dark-themed application window split into two sections. On the left is a small panel titled “Dialog Tester Multiple Options” showing metadata (“Data: ‘1’ Label: ‘Dr Who’ Payload: ‘<null>’”) and three buttons stacked vertically—“Show Single,” “Show 3,” and “Show 4,” with “Show 4” outlined to show it’s selected. On the right floats a centered quiz dialog titled “QUIZ.” Below the title is the prompt “From which show is the following quote:” followed by the quote about the powerful and the stupid both altering facts to fit their views. Beneath the quote are four dark buttons arranged in two rows offering “Dr Who,” “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” and “Pinky & Brain” as possible answers.

“Take a screenshot every few seconds” legitimately sounds like a suggestion from a low-parameter LLM that was given a prompt like “How do I add an arbitrary AI feature to my operating system as quickly as possible in order to make investors happy?” — but more sophisticated threats are on the horizon.

This didn't happen by random chance of the market or some neutral development of technology. The game industry, like many industries, figured out how to outsource all the risks and costs of production onto the aspirational while capturing their own cut as rent. Game devs are uber drivers now.

While re-implementing Unitys PlayerPrefs in Godot for easier Unity script/project to Godot conversion I learn... re-discover? how weird PlayerPrefs really is. This is valid in Unity. #unity #unity3d #godot #godotengine #gamedev #indiedev

**TL;DR:** Unity C# script sets an int and then a string with the same key in `PlayerPrefs`, logs both values — the int is overwritten.

**Extracted Text:**

```csharp
void Start()
{
PlayerPrefs.SetInt("test", 11);
PlayerPrefs.Save();

PlayerPrefs.SetString("test", "aaaa");
PlayerPrefs.Save();

Debug.Log(PlayerPrefs.GetInt("test"));
Debug.Log(PlayerPrefs.GetString("test"));
}
```

**Description for a blind person:**
This is a Unity C# script defining the `Start()` method. It first saves an integer value `11` under the key `"test"` using `PlayerPrefs`. Then it overwrites that key by saving the string `"aaaa"` under the same key. Both times `PlayerPrefs.Save()` is called to commit the changes. Finally, it logs the results of retrieving both an int and a string using the `"test"` key. The logged int will likely return `0` or cause an issue since the key now stores a string.

**TL;DR:** Unity console shows `PlayerPrefs.GetInt("test")` returns `0` after overwriting the key with a string; `GetString("test")` returns `"aaaa"`.

**Extracted Text:**

```
[01:46:52] 0
UnityEngine.Debug:Log (object)
[01:46:52] aaaa
UnityEngine.Debug:Log (object)
```

**Description for a blind person:**
This is a screenshot of the Unity console output. It shows two log entries with timestamps. The first logs the number `0`, indicating that retrieving the `"test"` key as an integer failed after it was overwritten with a string. The second logs `"aaaa"`, confirming the string value was successfully saved and retrieved. Both logs are from `UnityEngine.Debug:Log (object)`.
