PHOTOS: Russian and US troops shook hands and took pictures together when their patrols met in Syria, actions in deep contrast with Ukraine tensions

@coolboymew This was years ago. Back when I was using VisualBoyAdvance which I don't use anymore. This Let's Play uses the same filters I used.

Okay, it doesn't look as good as I remember, but the HUD sprites look smooth as fuck.

@coolboymew Filters weren't that bad when I tried them with Link's Awakening DX. It honestly looked like a hand-drawn flash game. I guess it depends on the game.

@Alex It's a custom font I got from the Internet. I forgot what it was. And it maybe a problem because I don't remember what license the font has.

I plan on calling my game Zerox (named after the Xerox computer but spelled phonetically). I don't know how the logo would look with just one word though. Too lazy to do it right now.

And yeah. That game logo is just a placeholder. I made it, but I don't know if a proper logo would look good with the skills and tools I have. (I use Pinta which is basically an open source clone of Paint.NET) I would commission a logo, but I only have ~$40 worth of crypto last time I checked.

I've added a how to play screen on the main menu. I also finished Level 7 (the second to last level). I just need to do the finishing touches on level 8, and assuming there aren't any problems with the other levels, then I'm done with levels.

The left is calling for a nuclear war because they are all closeted Posadists.

@Stoonk @Jim @Firelion I take loli bans as a red flag, and I don't even like loli.

>it'll work on shit tier "shell or cpanel only" hosts.

That's honestly not a bad thing, given that shared hosts are much more common and cheaper than virtual hosts. Some are even free (but I don't know how a GNU Social instance would scale on one).

@PhenomX6 @alex @e @ne @mint @hj I thought that FE project died after the Gleason drama.

@ne @alex @hj Why are you using a web browser to test REST APIs? Why not use something like Postman or cURL?

@Moon I was actually surprised about your instance being more laid-back. I always conflate shitposting with imageboards, so I thought your instance (along with the rest of the "free-speech" side of the fedi) would be nothing but /pol/-tards ranting about jews, trannies, and race-mixing.

@Moon@shitposter.club You're experience is that it's genuinely become hostile and stupid? This is my second time on Fedi and it's been a much better experience than when I first joined. When I got on Fedi first I followed a lot of extreme political accounts and toxic people. My experience therefore wasn't great. I've proactively tried to maintain a much more wholesome, friendly, fun, and substantiative feed on this go around.

@hj @Moon @pomstan Forum threads are easily indexed an archived. Microblog posts (that have actual discussion) are buried in a sea of shitposts, memes, and people talking about the food they just ate.

@hj @Moon @pomstan
>it's their comfy forum that just happens to have connectivity to others

That's a problem. Forums and microblogs should not be interchangeable. Microblogging platforms are terrible for actual discussion.

@famine @Weeble @Moon misskey has a setting for minimum instance age before they start federating wit you
at least I know Misskey.io has that.

@Moon It's up to all of us to make Fedi more fun and enjoyable again 😸

But one can't deny that Fedi is heavily split right now in 2 groups which do not want to do anything with each others at all. And that's quite sad!
