Neverwinter Nights multiplayer still has an active community! Speaks to how good the game is, given it's over 2 decades old.

Just be ready for D&D 3e rules 😬

I found these really striking, great work!

The teal on white is almost like a porcelain design.

Illustration of a rat king (multiple rats tangled together by their tails). The rats are all clustered in the top half of the composition, with their tails forming a loop below. A dripping crown is overlaid on the loop, and the rats all have small crowns.

I feel like my tinnitus is like manual breathing mode: not there unless I think about it, or it's a very quiet room

Willpower is overrated; better to do stuff that makes the right thing easy

Code written with box characters used on old old software to make fake UIs

You’re still arguing about tabs vs. spaces? May I present…

At least in my own experience, a lot of fun in games comes from problem solving and novelty

When you have to replay a section, you know the answers/strategies and have seen it before so it is less fun than the first time

I'VE NEVER SMOKED, BUT I TOTALLY SEE THE APPEAL OF STOPPING WORK EVERY FEW HOURS TO GO OUTSIDE AND SET SOMETHING ON FIRE.

The quote "When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do, sir?" is often attributed to the economist John Maynard Keynes. The current government's policies are making the problem worse, and the books today show that problem writ large. It should change its mind.

An overwatch replay code cropped and optimized for OCR

Sick of manually grabbing each Overwatch Replay Code?

Well I dipped my toes into Computer Vision and OCR for the first time to make a solution! Check it out over at github.com/BlythT/ocrve...

Stylized portrait of Immortan Joe, made using MRMOTEXT tiles (it's a textmode pixelart, meaning it uses 1-bit colorized tiles). Large letters spell out MEDIOCRE.

Made with #MRMOTEXT and #MRMO-Halftone.

Woolworths brand sea salt crackers

The best crackers are back

This needs to be a national public service announcement, these crackers are the shit!

Pair with a good brie or camembert and some prosciutto 😘👌

The halftone and grunge/speckle is all post processing done in Affinity Photo so not part of the tiles (from the alt text if the original posts image)

MRMOTEXT by Mrmo Tarius All-purpose 1-bit tileset

Hmmm it's not a software program, rather a tileset for use in ASCII art programs like "Playscii"

See more here: mrmotarius.itch.io/mrmotext

It's a tileset/characterset designed by MRMO to make text-based art, similar to ASCII art

Jake Paul and Mike Tyson at faceoff pre-boxing match. Background is 4 conventionally attractive ring girls in small outfits standing in frame with seemingly no other purpose

Like???

Can we talk about how strange it is that ring girls are used as near-literal objects?

I don't usually watch boxing, but placing them as "eye candy" in every post-match interview feels so outdated.

Tending to a Memory

Libraries are amazing

To be human is to drink too much and spend the next day sprawled on the couch swearing never to do that again

Relatable tbh
