It’s really rare for a project to completely rewrite to a new toolkit. VLC in circa 2007 did it (moved to Qt - even stole their volume control widget directly from Amarok at the time). GCompris ended up as a KDE project despite originating in Gnome (along with toolkit change, but it weirdly kept the name). LXDE->LXQT also. But I don’t actually have that many examples.

This is in Asia somewhere? Trying to find recognizable logos on buildings and don’t see any.

Whole lives were lived there

This is actually kind of hilarious. He could basically be a character in the MaddAddam trilogy…

But what’s particularly interesting is what he pulled off without the means that a giant pharma company could do. Like, if someone with those resources tackled this, maybe we really could have Jurassic Park

That only really works in a benevolent dictatorship. In a democracy, the masses can vote for reality-rejection candidates.

It’s a pity democracy seems to be better than all the alternatives in practice, cause in principle there should be ways to improve things more. Inevitably though all other forms turn into draconian crap. Well, democracy does sometimes too, but less often.

Or he is a squirrel

I’m not sure this comic would be framed like this if created today. But the punchline would still work with a gang initiation backdrop or something.

No never seen them. Will investigate. I wish the pictures made it more clear what the actual mechanism is. Maybe I need to handle one in person to understand.

This seems like a decent suggestion. Also, inexpensive and field repairable.

Alas, it seems there are no winners anymore. Just sides. I don’t suspect this will end well for Iran in the long term.

Just playing with textures and lines. Poorly grouted tiles in a warehouse. Wish I had a batter camera haha.

Joke is on the Timberwolves. They’re going to be sliding around too

Yeah, that’s a good option perhaps. I grabbed em recent because of a steam sale, but never played them before. Appreciate the rec :)

I’ve never heard of this, so it is perfect as a recommendation! Because now I have something to look into :)

I’ve played all the old school Square and Enix stuff. FF6 is my goat.

Sure. Tales games tend to be high fantasy settings where each game is its own setting (much like Final Fantasy in that sense). They tend to have a lot of “war against heaven corrupted” kind of vibes. But largely there’s a lot of places to explore, NPCs to talk to, and a bunch of great little skits that trigger between your team. They tend to be lighter on graphics in exchange for length and depth of story. But it’s also somewhat linear, and carefully crafted and you can sort of lose yourself in finding the next story beat.

But they also typically have active combat systems where it’s about button mashing and combos. This is the part I don’t like :)

No! I’ve heard it is quite the investment if you want to start at the beginning. Is there a later jumping in point that works well, in your opinion?

But you mean you wrote it in python with tkinter as a toolkit, rather than writing it in Tcl (which is its own language, like python).

Generally speaking, while not necessarily the speediest GPUs, anything post i710 has had quite decent Linux support. I hope this is no exception.

Serious question: I’ve never met a programmer who has ever actually written anything in Tcl in the real world. If you’ve working in Tcl, tell me about it! What did you use it for and when? Was it awesome/terrible/etc.?
