Re: New Forum Themes/Styles Feedback

I tend not to like dark themes because there’s always one or two areas where the designers didn’t manage contrast well and I can’t read some critical heading text somewhere. I think I would like dark themes better if most of them didn’t screw that up.

BBOTS live preview won’t work on my phone, unlike the other theme.

Re: Neither Nintendo nor Gumpei Yokoi invented the d-pad

This is pretty cool. I think perhaps a better way to credit the designers at Nintendo under Yokoi would be to say that Yokoi's team invented the modern d-pad. They certainly created the one that inspired so many others via the Famicom controller. But Nintendo definitely didn't originate the core idea.

Re: Games Acquired 2024

I also got a PS5 yesterday.... Never owned a PS4 so I have some catch-up to do. Wait…wut?! How did that come about? The wife. "You still like video games right? I heard this was the new system." Exact same thing happened in 2008 or so when she came home with a Wii. You don't deserve her. ...

Re: The Comic Book Thread

Humans much prefer making excuses for themselves than actually changing, because it's easier to blame others or blame the world for who you are than to actually look in th...

idk, AI does incredible stuff now days.
Yeah, it produces inferior output while endangering human artists’ livelihoods even though it was trained off their hard work.

AI asset generation should not be used to replace paid artists.
