@amandac I just heard Quassel go off so I guess there was a hiccup with my VPS
@compufox @tobi If text tutorials are more your thing, Godot's own documentation has a very good and comprehensive set of tutorials that you can read through to get started! https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/getting_started/introduction/index.html

😣 paying off skid past homelessness $555/$1400
Oof. So, I finally found the VISA bill from getting through latest fekkin crisis and I'm $1,400 in the hole.
There's lots to sort yet, but I am at least spiralling up rather than down finally.
I know everybody's struggling, it's hard to ask, but if you can spare some coin it's deeply appreciated to help me stabilize.
And as always, boosts appreciated, that's help too. 💞

This is wild, this kid is a hero!
An 11yo boy noticed a classmate brought a gun to school. So the boy disarmed the other student. Once he had control of the gun he unloaded the bullets, disassembled the gun and hid the parts so the kid who brought it would not find it.
He threw away the bullets, separating them from the gun.
All without any adults ever noticing.
At the end of the day teachers found the gun parts and the kid was expelled for not reporting it.

@NanoRaptor my head immediately going into the logistics of how to actually make this work and then remembering the Family Computer Network System
Attention Canadians, the claims process for the bread price fixing class action lawsuit is open. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/bread-fixing-website-1.7631445
I felt sorry for a friend who was frustrated with the I/O portion of writing a Rogue/Dwarf Fortress-like game this morning. Text mode is surprisingly painful in 2025 compared to 1985, when you could just grab a pointer to the text framebuffer and poke bytes.
So, I made a little open source library that presents a proper, modern graphics API for text mode games!
textgame runs directly in the terminal on macOS, Linux, Windows 11. 32-bit unicode, 24-bit color, double-buffered, keyboard input, blitter with transparency and clipping regions, and string printing with word wrap and numeric formatting.
Also, a version with a more detailed background that I maybe got too carried away with hehe
@Vivaldi I do not envy the engineers tasked with having to rip all that back out of the engine, every time this nonsense happens
