I am going out and say you like computer games. Visualizing computer game information is, imho, a great target.

Making a UI for inputs and information or gathering information puts you on road to learn different, interacting aspect.

ideas:

  • crawl info from wikis
  • display system mechanics in graphs and images
  • create UIs to interact with above data

Holding forward during the loading screen is not better than being free to do anything.

Noone is against background loading. This is a given. People are against pseudo interaction.

GC is for war and soldiers are combatants and not criminals by default (switching can happen easily). As an example Hollowpoint against criminals is okay as it can protect surrounding bystanders.

It's a bit weird, but for countries war is different from domestic problems.

Guys like you see privacy as a monolith, that it never is. Unusable privacy is meanigless as email had shown. Privacy of communications does not mean privacy of communicators and usable authentication can be more important then anonymity.

And all this has to be realised on real-world servers, that are always in reach of real world goverment.

Maybe look out for single player games?

Diablo-likes are not good, when the design team thinks about retention and game time instead of accessibilty.

Stuff like Van Hellsing, Victor Vran and other AA release are not about the grind.

Insteaf of 120 hours of PoE you can have 30-40hrs of 3 to 4 different diablo-likes a d I will tell you the difference is greater then within PoE.

If you only need something like buttons, sliders and other simpel, non-user-account driven stuff, than Streamlit.io is an option.

A simple requirements.txt and shipping your Python app with an .bat or .sh that just does:

open venv start main.py in venv closr venv

should be a hood intermediate step from cli script to gui

You then see people making scripts that take days to run, but it's fine, they're only going to use it twice and are busy enough to be able to wait

My current focus:

  • hall effect sensor to avoid stick drift
  • i prefer the xbox layout for sticks
  • abxy button layout, because not all pc games support ps buttons
  • cabel, cuz lighter and no sudden loss of input

Isnt Icefrog one of the lead devs? I guess he likes this style of game. How many Total Wars, 4x and CoDs were released while Valve made one more Dota-like. Valve has some cool people working, vut O don't see a Suda51, a Raphael, Swery or Co, who has the focus to develope such a single player experience. If the flat structure with 'at will' project focus is still a thing, than sp games have probably a problem getting devs.

The OG solution was to use stretched 4:3/resolution, nyt Arx Libertatis allows easy casting with modern resolution.

The IBF, headed by russion dude, came up with this undiaclosed "test" three days after the algerian boxer beat an undefeated russian boxer.

The IBF was so openly corrupt, that the IOC kicked them and 20+ national boxing feds left IBF and created a new organization.
