Someone said:
“Art Nouveau is when it looks made by elves.
Art Deco is when it looks made by dwarves.”
And after looking into it, I think they’re 100% correct.

@VonKant just in case the short link succumbs to link-rot, you might want to link the destination directly: https://www.bothandapparel.com/pages/downloads
very cool resource tho n.n
So there’s this company in USA that makes clothes for transmac/nb people and it’s closing because they can’t get funding to invest in more material… they release the designs with measurements so you can make your clothes and to pass on all the research they did to make shirts and trousers and jumpers that fit as you would like a cis male garment fit but they don’t because you have hips or butt or you don’t bind… I’m sharing the link.

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/updates/2024-10-10.html The much-delayed PRGE 2024 edition of the Golfshrine Acquisitions Update! Got a couple of especially interesting and long-needed additions to the Shrine this time around, so check it out - do it for Schmoe. Don't make Schmoe sad. 😦
after lusting for a copy of andré lamothe's Black Art of 3d Game Programming for years, i finally found an affordable copy
it does not disappoint. one of the fatal flaws of 95% of 3d game programming books is that they jump straight into mathematical proofs, instead of explaining in human terms how concepts are relevant to making a game. lamothe's programming concepts are clear, easy to understand, and provide real-world examples before diving into code
to my delight, the book doesn't limit itself to just 3d. it covers every conceivable topic for building a game engine from scratch in MS-DOS - and includes some great chapters on FM and wavetable synthesis!
it now has avatars. thanks to @jkap for helping me figure out a non-deranged way of doing it
The wait is over. HTML for People is OUT NOW!
I feel strongly that anyone should be able to make a website with HTML if they want. This web book will teach you how to do just that. It doesn’t require any previous experience making websites or coding. I will cover everything you need to know to get started in an approachable and friendly way.
And it’s free for all. 🚀
If you'd like these wallpapers for your own similar setup, here are the files, for 1080x1920 and 1920x1200 respectively.
...i do still have a couple of golfshrine updates that i still have not finished (or started) writing though, i'm tired, that's my excuse
I think I just vaulted over the line between "WordPress is too much of a maintenance burden, I want to move away" to "I need to stop using WordPress. Now."
BitWarden is nice. BitWarden is not controlled by any corporation and you don't have to worry about it being someday confined to one platform or tied to some other product. BitWarden supports self-hosting. BitWarden supports passkeys.
He/him. Puzzle-Adventure Hybrid with RPG Elements. Supports 3D Acceleration. He Is Essentially What He Believes. Just in case, 🔞, LGBTQ+ 👍, DOS 👌, 🐂💩👎.
