you will not change my mind.

properly defined guides and standards like these are why not only floss but any graphic-design-is-my-passion "material" "design" UI will never beat windows 95

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social you can thank steve jobs

@madewokherd now i'm thinking about an FPGA core that runs WASM bytecode, running a webassembly x86 emulator on it. Oh no

@madewokherd Windows ported to WASM

@clyde

That seems a pretty significant area of gaming history to sweep under the rug.

surprises me none coming from the country that still cries over the """video game crash""" of 1983

@suricrasia HTTP 418 I'm a teapot

html5 will never replace flash

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

@clyde i mean hardware wise, in the early 2000s general stores where i lived were flooded with famiclone DDR pads that all played the same 3 songs

@clyde it's less a case for lack of technological capacity and more "nobody thought about this until parappa" i think

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social also there was no "video game" "crash" "of 1983" lol

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social avgn is a guilty pleasure but yes a lot of retro game misinfo spawned from him

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social and some of the things you need to collect is down in those holes so you have to go there anyway

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social pretty sure the only thing you need to avoid is the feds. the holes have icky collision but all that happens is you fall down them iirc and you need to spend energy to float back up

@SnepperStepper@mastodon.social it's more like a collectathon

mike tyson's punch-out!! (1987) is a rhythm game
