Now the generator adds forests (marked as '^') and mountain ranges (marked as '#'), as well as polar ice caps (marked as '*'). I was debating whether the forest or the mountain ranges get the carrot symbol given that it resembles both a mountain and a tree.

I would include deserts, but it would be much trickier since they need to be placed where they make sense.

@coolboymew It's your fault for not putting a "no solicitors" sign.

Trans radical mentals poured liquid feces on an ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PLAYGROUND bc people weren't wearing masks outside at a book fair.

Then they lit books on fire, got in a fight, & now think they're victims of settler colonial violence.

@Fullycaffeinated @olmitch Personally I believe any data of value is already being archived, mined and studied for years now. We accept this as part of it being a public network, which is why we're careful about what we share. In my view it doesn't change much.

I imagine abolishing entire "public" education systems would be a great way to move away from the Matrix. There is way too much evidence of wrongdoing. The Government has no right to dictate over parental guidance. Trade and horticultural skills would more more beneficial for the economically depressed states. All basic education Math, Science,History etc can be learned online. More Parks,Sports and other options for social interaction.

@xianc78 >telling kids to run away from home to make games with you in the middle of the ocean where there are no laws

Positions needed at Ioncom:

* Designers - duh
* Programmers - Must be able to write their own engines; Soydevs need not apply
* Artists - For the love of God, no Cal-Arts, furshit, nu-corporate, Big Mouth, or claymation artists
* Composers - We plan on having a Falcom JDK-like band
* Web developers - again, no soydevs
* Social media specialists - We will prioritize the fedi and other decentralized social media and we will have all of our AMAs on imageboards
* Private security - Since we will have our headquarters on a seastead in international waters, we will need to protect ourselves from pirates (the real kind; not the software kind), nation-states, SJWs, human-rights activists going after us for "child-labor", and video game companies trying to destroy us for "stealing" their IPs

I learned how easy it is to make a planet terrain generation program. All you really need is a recursive function that marks a tile as "land" and keeps on adding land in all four directions until it hits a random threshold.

Here are some of the planets it was able to make:

@beardalaxy I bet you would've ran away from home, as a kid, if you had the opportunity to be a successful game developer.
