Clearing out my demo backlog : it doesnt always have to be technical
sometimes its for lul
if you think your kid can do this in scratch : LETS SEE IT ! however, we can state with some confidenz this is not about pushing the limits of the hardware but a punny , and i think "a realtime compo" which probably means "coded on site" during the party itself

belgian politics and eurosuits
Trump, Putin and that 90% of the planet no one talks about ?
My favourite artstyle is one of the things that keeps us level
looks like there's no ninja's in the trees tonight ... geldj genoeg i mean
who leaves on the lights in rooms where you arent all night if you're trying to save money ?
I'm enjoying my winter-routine one-cup of hot cocoa per night during 2nd cycle ... not sure if this will be an option next year.
Something old something new

This is a check on the effect of a normal map on a single face (well a cube which is actually 6 faces) which has 4 vertices ... the depth effect is created through a 2nd texture that uses 3 main colors

1978 ...
strange all these things, Object Oriented programming goes back to the 1960s but like javascript from 1995 its all NEW SKOOL, RIGHT ?
Its just a snip made in simplified syntax-coding ide named AGK , which is
let's say C++ libraries that write like BASIC language
and compile afterwards, its really easy to use
the music is a single sample taken from https://csdb.dk/release/?id=205262 Lost Realms of Murkasada ... dont shoot me if i dont know if its from one or two anymore
i DO know the author of the sid tune is name Andy Vaissey

Its sampled from playback, sliced and then edited in Audacity and LMMS by yours truly, Janes OnderGrond, MrMalice
it shows how a normal map can have huge impact on a scene with minimal performance overhead
but you know
none of that matters anymore until the A.I. is put back in place after the resource collapse, or it hits the memory wall and keeps repeating the number 39 .. whichever comes first
by then AMY doesnt know anything but how to ask Siri and all the elders are too burnt out to care
ANYWAY ... 6am huh ...
o
did we have "a crash" again ?
poor sods who have BTC at $1000 now only have $107000 left a piece
WOE AND SORROW

diversity is the key against inbreeding so rejoice that we are talking demoez in a land of "hi"-culture ...
besides the demoscene has officially been recognized as cultural heritage
https://hackaday.com/2023/07/11/the-demoscene-now-an-irreplaceable-piece-of-cultural-heritage/
so it's hi-culture too now
right in time i think, the QoD - coefficient has been declining since 2019 ... i'm starting to think that thing they censored everywhere about long-covid causing a drop in IQ was actually TRUE ...
but we'll always have Farbrausch
on OO and all that, personally we're not too keen on all that stuff,
"Show me a machine that knows objects and i'll write OO for it!" a wise guy said some time in a distant galaxy
don't particularly like javascript but you know, its to get around without it in a world made of browsers and "this" is somewhat charming for a little while
i totally dislike python, and even more so since, i uninstalled it once from a linux pc (ROOT can do everything ! ... he's like topminister or Obama clearing out the gulf spill by himself)
and you know what ?
the thing wouldnt boot anymore ... .turns out python, a SCRIPTED language, INTERPRETED, is SO embedded in the core of the system you cant even remove it
HOWS THAT GONNA AFFECT PERFORMANCE
then we saw an article where Torvalds said "JUST GET A NEW PC, IT RUNS FINE ON MY PC WITH THIS RYZEN" (the kind of CPU you get to be able to run blender and sculpt, anywhere between €5000 and €50000 i bet)
and we knew it was over ...
the triffids have taken over the planet
there's not much bipeds with a soul left and the rest of life will be down to seaweed soon enough
truly the end of the sumerian era
