Honestly, fuck Gnome.
I'll give KDE a try, then budgie, then xfce. In last case, after 12 years on Linux, I'll go back to Windows.
That's what you get when you're more concerned with virtue signaling "security for the user" instead of actually addressing user needs.

Great! My Gnome extensions also stopped working. Wonderful. Thank you, Gnome.

@LudensLudonauta People tend to take things personally, as if they were being attacked directly.
English
Why do people usually associate "brutal honesty" with "mean negative critique"?
I dunno if people like to play victims or suffer from severe impostor syndrome (which is a kind of victimism).
But it's so annoying to only being taken serious when you talk trash about something.
English
@LudensLudonauta I forgot to mention that the term 'experience' is already in use in the VR niche without causing any 'brand damage', especially since many VR experiences do not actually have any game economies/mechanics.

@tumeo_ Western society is extremely passionate about everything.
They overrate absolutely anything they feel is deemed.
Poetry, movies, photography, music, painting, illustration...and games.
We (for some reason) have a hard time being pragmatic and compartmentalize things.

I didn't play Mixtape yet
But if it doesn't have systems of incentives to provide feedback about players actions towards the goal, it isn't game. Period
Games must have:
Voluntary participation
Rules
Goal
Feedback
Otherwise, they are just an interactive experience

I think I could help clarify this a bit. This comes from someone who has no love or hate towards Mixtape, just a professional opinion from an educator in game development. The debate over whether Mixtape counts as a game or an interactive story stems from a traditional definition that shifted around 2012. In game development courses, we were taught (and still teach) Jesper Juul's classic game model. It emphasizes that games require quantifiable outcomes and win/loss conditions, or at least meaningful failure states. This draws from other theorists too but was formalised by Jesper, the theorist and designer himself. A lot of us who learned and still teach this older framework may view titles without meaningful failure states or 'game over' screens as interactive media rather than full game. Pre-2012, this probably wouldn't have been classified as a game. Today's industry and audience are much more accepting of narrative driven experiences. Grok and modern outlets go by current broad acceptance, but that's different from the traditional understanding many gamers and educators grew up with. I've worked on a 'walking simulator' myself, and we deliberately added risk, challenge, and ways to lose so it could ship as a proper game. I've also played horror titles with no real failure states that felt more like interactive stories. This doesn't take away from Mixtape being well received interactive media. But rating it a 10/10 as a video game is exactly why the community feels split. After 10+ years of teaching game development, I personally wouldn't classify something without ways to lose as a full video game in the traditional sense. People can and should still enjoy it for what it is, but it does call in to question: Is the bar of entry for what classes as a game being lowered, and why? Gaming has expanded to include more artistic forms, but the traditional framework still helps explain why some of us feel the 'game' label stretches thin here. Either way, if you enjoy the story, it doesn't always matter how it's told, but there is no harm in calling a book, a book.

I won't go into details (I made a video in PT-BR about whether Mixtape is a game or not) but I just gotta say...
I have this animation choice of making 3D characters that could be 60fps animate at, what? 6fps?
They did that in .hack//G.U. and I hated it.

@LudensLudonauta The main issue is that the 'western gaming industry' is somewhat reluctant to re-label those experiences as something else, perhaps because it would be more difficult to attract investors(?). In east asia, however, visual novels are simply accepted as they are.
English
@LudensLudonauta I also haven't played it yet, but from what I've seen, it looks like an adventure-ish interactive fiction.
It's a bit like a kinetic visual novel, but more focused on the "vibes".
I don't see any downside to that tho; it's simply a matter of 'adjusting expectations'.

@LudensLudonauta @thomasbrushdev My experience of using Unity's profiler has been the worst possible; it's always more guesswork than an actual understanding of where the bottleneck really is.
English
@thomasbrushdev How's Unity's profiler?
In Godot you can pretty accurately investigate bottlenecks in performance.

The optimization phase of game development involves making tiny tweaks you suspect are causing major hiccups in the game, and then staring at this for 8 hours a day over and over and scrolling social media on your phone:

There are three "primary colors" of game mechanics:
🔴Action: Those that test player's ability to react in real time to game events
🟢Adventure: Those that test player's ability to reveal information in the game
🔵Strategy: Those that test player's ability to manage resources

I'm starting an "Anti Social Media Marketing for Indies" movement.
Way less expensive than creating content for X, Instagram, Reddit, TikTok, or YouTube.
The thesis? Traffic on Steam and itch.io is massively direct or organic, not referral from social media.

I'm finally happy with the new @MilkywayMailing twin stick controller.
I had to make major changes to the whole physics (we use CharacterBody instead of RigidBody now) but I'm on a good path!

🕯️ Librarians, you inspired us! Your passion for Libritopia made us realize we want to build the ultimate library together.
We want to add REAL classic books from YOUR region and culture into the game! 🌍📚
Read below on how to get your local stories on our shelves! 👇✨

@LudensLudonauta Unfortunately, this happens a lot. People use _process()/Update() for basically anything, and 90% of the time, those processes could just be a signal/event to change a state when it is really needed.

@StarfighterInt1 Since programming essentially involves solving problems, AI will only solve the problems it was best trained for.

I've been doing an experiment and can answer this:
It's because agents struggle with anything else. I'm a game programmer and decided to let Codex vibe code a simple Godot game.
It struggled constantly with the way the engine works, brute forcing it with 300 line scripts.

why are vibe coders mostly web developers?
