Game developer and gaming enthusiast.
Working with code since ~1986 ... uff

Working on Slyceverse: Survivors.

I felt trapped by Big Tech and Big Corporations and now I am getting rid of them wherever I can. Using Open Source and shopping locally / European as my go to solution - feeling better since I started that journey.

People think a lot about the output they get from AI tools and chatbots. But they don't think enough about the input they give to the AI tools and chatbots. Your input is very likely collected, ta...

@nprofile1q... that is what the pro AI folks that argue "it is just a tool, let's use it or you are left behind" don't get.

The LLM is not the tool that is being used. The user is the tool!

As you said every information, every program every piece of intellectual property is being used. And the user is the tool that hands it to them.

Every sent context bringing them closer to being made redundant.

What a crazy world...

@nprofile1q... @nprofile1q... I think with the rise of an american administration that is unhinged the corporate tech Billionaires and coporations do not have to pretend any more and are becoming more and more unhinged as well.

And that can be seen everywhere and accelerates things a lot.

I like this. OH: The Fediverse is social media. TikTok, X, Facebook etc is algorithmic media. This catches the difference quite well. We should take the term social media back. It is about us, not the...

@nprofile1q... I feel the term algorithmic is too innocent/harmless for what the corporations really tailor it for.

The goal of the algorithmic corporate feed is to

a) make people addicted to the feed and

b) continuously lower their attention span so they can show them more ads (I mean influence them) in ever shorter succession.

It is a very vicious and purely evil construct.

💯 on Fediverse is social media.

Most fancy high-tech tools for the solo gamedev:

Add a changelog.md and todo.md/backlog.md to your godot project.

Every time you make a change,fix or add something: write it into the changelog. You can use it for commit messages and show it within your program/game.

If you want to keep track of things to do write it into the todo.md
Once it is done: cut & paste it into the changelog.

Yeah, I know: Fancy and high tech.

Oh and don't forget the credits.md

Do yourself a motivational favor and make a quick icon and logo when you start a new Godot project.
Does not need to be the final ones just a quick prototype.

I find it so motivating to see it in the project selector, taskbar and the splashscreen when booting the project.

A little motivational boost everytime you start working on it or debug it 😎

Another small Linux Mint Cinnamon applet showing the current house consumption, solar panel output and how much I export or import (orange) from the grid.

This is read directly from my inverter.

Does anyone have a good link/example/tip for a rate limiting method that works with a typical Hetzner webhosting package that has PHP8?

I want to prevent that someone spams a certain php file.
