Catching up still,
but it stays page 10 for 3 days, some party must have been going on somewhere ... i think a few people are in denial though
on how its the end of an era ... since turing and von neumann over dougie to debris and gaia machine its clear somethings awry , and as all things in the universe it won't come back to the state it was
but we had the golden 90s of audiovisual arts and creative coding, while gen-x profiles itself on zuck, besos and musk
its clear the quality in the last 5 years overall has gone down severely, not enough time, losing interest in a world where any clown with a phone can ask some chatbot to write me a demo by the time i reach revision and not even has to disclose it because there's no a.i. legal watermark on anything (i mean you know, in case it has been piting everyones IP which nintendo so defends at the cost of profit but THEY SURE WIN A LOT OF TRIALS)
and most of all at that age IMS is rampant, not to mention korsakovv from 40 years of demoparties ... tshi tschhi theee
and they're falling like flies, you get as much GRATZ-on-the-50 onefilers as you get RIP-you-will-be-missed(on the 50) demos more or less
its pointless wasting over, elvis aint coming back either and the world for sure is no cliché of gone to hell this time, ragnarok is basically here, erosion, climate change is over, covid has disappeared , they're building walls that make the iron curtain sound like a white picket fence in virtual spaces and your minds
but i'll sure never forget amon tobin starting up mutek and the crowd going silent, or metallica taking creeping death to the bridge on a 60000 wide crowd ... (and one or two other things in the years before it turned to zero)
so , demos since tv is boring
Descent by Hork
very nice in 16k if you ask me, the comments show that IMS again because no one says "MAN, i have a 16k here thats SO much better" everyone says " you can do better" and the rest seems to have non offensive answers written by their PERSONAL chatbot (like an iThing gives you an iDentity, right?)
What i DO know is that the c64 i have here and the Atari STe strangely seem to have no trouble with patches overloading them until i need a new one and with a few capacitors replaced they have outlived every other machine i ever had and both will probably last another 30-40 before they need new ones ...
the games run just as fine as they did in the 80s and 90s , they're just as good or bad as they were
we get miracle boy and we get SO Many neo64 games, FUCK THAT ULTIMATE box ...
and i can take a program i wrote 40 years ago , turn it on and it wont complain about missing libs which you can apparently only use with THAT version of mint because THIS version can only use the newer one so SORRY for that great tool
you bought spriter Pro for the linux support ? IT DOESNT RUN ?
o but it does, we ran it on ubuntu 16 !
o, did you now ... o too late for a refund
tsch
This one is probably a lot harder to do than it looks, especially in 4096 bytes

and again i hate to inform you , demo scene is official UNESCO cultural heritage, so that very much makes it an artform even to intellectual nurture-nature debaters , so my reporting is as valid as the next one , but eve if it werent, I DONT WRITE FOR SOMEONE ELSSSSS......
and some other stuff too but i think thats for another castle
and because my fingers get sore more lately from typing for too long
i'll put it in pictures
Painters versus writers ... no one ever knew the hybrid has more chances to evolve into the next surviving species
o sorry ... missed the Farjan, i guess if you're finnish its a "I HAVE TO" thing ... we will probably never understand :p
