Whatever you do, don't close one eye and look directly at your own nose.

Won't be able to unsee it on top of your normal vision for an hour.

@FRENDEN Gotcha, but bear in mind it's just flair in most clients (as in it requires a hover to do anything). And your avatar's current framerate is 1fp∞.

@FRENDEN I think you should.

@pixelchristi Yeah, it looks like it was produced by Nintendo UK. It's also not called a 'Nindie Showcase', but 'Indie Highlights'.

Weird voiceover, though.

New Nindies showcase now live!

@czottmann OMG. Don't.

Apparently Spielberg is still involved, so that's something.

Holy hell. I just found out they're rebooting Animaniacs. #conflicted

@FRENDEN
I very much dig your style.

#BombChicken is a cool little game I've been playing on #NintendoSwitch.

It's a puzzle platformer but instead of jumping, you lay bombs in a column to elevate yourself.

The level design is good and the sprites are large and well animated. It's a little on the short side, but perfect if you want something fun for a weekend.

To help some of the newcomers make connections: name subjects & topics that interest you but aren't in your profile, as tags so they are searchable. Then boost this post or repeat its instructions so others know to do the same.

@mrshll1001 Possibly, but I also use a bunch of Win stuff for work (including some no-longer-supported legacy apps our company produced).

Thanks, though. :)

If you've never watched it, this is a fantastic documentary about the history of Tetris:

Such quality, compared to half the other 'documentaries' on YT.

Windows 10 is such an asshole. I already rolled back once previously because I had device compatibility issues with a recent update. Lo and behold, I get to my laptop (which had things open when I left it) and it's in the middle of another update. The same device driver issues were evident, so I just had to roll right back again.

Yes, I'm a schmuck for using Windows in the first place, but some hardware just won't work on Linux currently.

When I was a small child, I asked my father if he believed in God.

He said: "I believe in him, I just don't approve of him."

I am not amused.

@Gargron I watched it twice.

I really do like this platform. :)

@aniki21 Yeah, I'm not suggesting it as a justification - just an observation.

I do agree with you, though. Everything has to be considered in its real-world context. It's disingenuous to suggest you never had an opportunity to access information about others' experiences in the information age.

My original point was aimed more at the importance of reasonable disagreement above that of 'sticking to your guns' (as if hearing something you don't like can damage your own position somehow).

@aniki21 Sure, but I think 'selfishness' perhaps connotes some amount of control or a decision, whereas fear as a motivator is often chaotic, knee-jerk and sometimes not even understood by the person motivated by it.

By that I'm (badly) trying to express I think lots of people who don't engage reasonably with others aren't necessarily choosing to prioritise their own feelings/situation, but find themselves subject to some 'strange negative feelings' that cause them to respond in a certain way.
