@picandor I figured I'd get bullied more if I just said I'm Bri'ish instead of <nondescript place on continent X>. Also fuck EU.
@picandor Jokes on them I still can't tell how much a metre is without measuring tape despite being European.
Been picking up programming back again after a long while. It's just as fun as I remembered .
Side note: How is a literal ideology such as OOP still the industry standard, that shit fucking sucks. I don't wanna have to download the source code and look through 15 different .h and .cpp files to see and example of how to render stuff to the screen using SDL2. All of the code using that piece-o'-shit paradigm can be boiled down to a few well-named functions anyways...
@Dice Wholesome all around
@Dice And the little "Sorry for interrupting you while playing Tetris", I swear a western girl could NEVER.
I still can't believe I've lived my whole life up until 3 days ago without having Madoka Magica on my mind 24/7. It is THAT good.
Side note: there is so much untapped potential for a fighting game, it's actually depressing that there just isn't one out yet. Maybe something in the style of Guilty Gear or Melty Blood, gameplay-wise.
@LukeAlmighty
Naaah. Considering to what lengths Light would go to achieve his goals, he'd probably make it about his demi-human, multi-gendered identity being racially profiled by police. Then simply get the police to release the investigators' names in public, or get then out of the police force all-together.
I would argue that if someone like that appeared in modern-day western society, Kira would've won long ago and it wouldn't have even taken a fraction of the effort and sacrifice he had to make in the original series.

@matrix Stop.
@matrix That video still lives in my head rent-free, PTSD-lite style.

Hard agree. Like many other instances of authoritarian measures being taken, it will just become an underground phenomemnon with more extremes and more -dedicated- members. All of a sudden, the problem became harder to uproot.
You shut down twitter today, and you'll wake up to public executions.
When it's so clear to see who's in the wrong, a counter-culture is formed against it that is equal or greater in power. However, this requires playing the waiting game, as it will take at least a generation before the earth expels the roots by itself.
