Pet peeves:

1) People who conflate aesthetic skeuomorphism with functional skeuomorphism. The skeuomorphism of old iOS apps is not the same as the skeuomorphism of knobs and sliders or of VR. Please stop conflating the two.

2) People who paint skeuomorphism as universally bad. Neither is universally bad. You just have a poor understanding of UO design and/or bad taste in computer aesthetics.

On the subject of SwSh, here's some fun screenshots from the camping thing. I enjoy that the legendary doggo will play with the bell and feather on a stick. Also, my sylveon, TRANS WRONGS, getting ready to commit her namesake.

Pokemon SwSh spoilers? 

I enjoy this. Not even the least bit surprised.

@andy The spacing is different (particularly the line spacing; word spacing is only slightly different), but the typefaces themselves are identical

java and flash made for a more creative web and i think scorched-earthing that was only ever a net negative regardless of security concerns and the only people who think the web is better off now are squares who never set foot on newgrounds or kongregate

thinking about how minecraft is pretty much only made in java because it started being developed when we could still embed java applets on web pages

@ziphi I manually save now, but as a fun fact, for the longest time, I didn't have a memory card for my GameCube, so if I wanted to leave it and come back to what I was doing later, I'd have to leave it powered on
