Mir geht schon länger was durch den Kopf, und jetzt muß ich doch mal fragen:
Nach dem Tod meines besten Freundes Alex Schestag waren seine beiden Server und damit seine Blogs sehr schnell aus dem Netz verschwunden. Ich hatte noch versucht, über das Internet-Archiv Artikel von ihm zu finden, aber alle sind da offenbar nicht gespeichert.
Es geht mir um einen bestimmten, vermutlich mit dem Titel „Schwarz“, in dem er eine Autofahrt mit seinen Eltern beschrieb, die die farbenprächtige Umgebung – es war wohl Herbst gewesen – lobten, während er selbst in schweren Depressionen alles nur in „schwarz“ sah. Diesen Artikel hatte ich nicht gefunden.
Avis à nos ami.e.s de Paris et sa Banlieue... J'ai le plaisir d'avoir été invité par @bookynette pour faire une séance de dédicaces samedi 20 décembre de 17h à 19h, dans la librairie " A Livr'ouvert" Une super librairie pleine de licences libres et de bouquins inspirants : @Alivrouvert
Due persone sono state trovate morte a Los Angeles nella villa di Rob Reiner, attore e regista di "Harry ti presento Sally". Lo riportano i media. (ANSA)

Sticker shock at the store today. Just 2 years ago, a bag of 7 frozen chicken breasts only cost ₩6900. Today at the same store, the same product is ₩13,000.
on #Linux (at least with xorg/cinnamon/fedora/whatever), SDL3 is picking up these phantom mouse up/down events that are mislabled as being from mouse 0, and this behavior differs from SDL3's mouse emulation (which I have off anyway).
something installed touchegg but I killed it with fire but that doesn't seem to have been the cause.
libinput by way of the debugging info provided by xinput seems to not be doing this, so that would leave xorg right? is there anything else I should check?
@pupxel doubtful. the phantom mouse events have approximately the same coordinates as the touch events and occur with a consistent ordering relative to the touch events. behaviorally this is clearly a compatibility bodge, but I haven't had any luck figuring out what is doing it or how to make it stop
also, it's worth noting for the sake of trouble shooting and not for the sake of saying that windows does not have this problem: windows does not have this problem. SDL3 on windows correctly picks up the touch events w/o the weird phantom mouse events.
the solution I'm considering is making linux players have to select whether or not they want tablet input or mouse input events. the navigation buttons would have to respond to everything or you couldn't open the settings page, so that stands to be confusing :/
This is a situation where I would begin by just filing on SDL3 because if the bug is somewhere else, they would be able to tell you where with more accuracy than you could work it out yourself.
sometimes in a situation like this i volunteer "If the bug is in some other program I would be happy to file it there, but I need enough information to explain to them the problem."
it sounds like the root cause is a fundamental problem in X11, and the work around is because generally people who use SDL are interested in using it to do things github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull…
…e active
Core X11 events are used for absolute motion while the mouse is grabbed, as XInput doesn't receive motion events from the master pointer, and the position from the slave devices lags ...
a triaging project where you file bug for piece of linux and they help you repro the issue, find where it come from and file a bug report against the correct project would be nice
This should pop up a window with a white background and a black-bordered rectangle inside.
When you “do stuff” in the window, it will report the input events from the core X protocol into the terminal (mouse motion, button presses etc). (This is why you need to launch it from a terminal.)
Note that the black-bordered region inside the window is set to behave differently, so you'll probably want to do your click tests elsewhere in the window.
I see two pairs of ButtonPress events each followed by its ButtonRelease events, with some MotionNotify events interspersed (mouse button down, mouse wiggle, mouse button up). Nothing unusual.
also note that AFAIK this only reports core input events, so if SDL is using some other layer (e.g. tthe XI2 extension) you won't see the same behavior (I don't know if there is a comparable XI2 debuging tool)

I'm so happy that the US is losing to BRICS and whatnot... That being said ive consumed some politics today and now that has offset my mood and Frame of mind ;(. But it was kinda worth it... I really enjoyed Gamers Nexus' coverage of their 3 and a half hour documentary on china gpu smuggling... Then I watched know way no how on YouTube and he did a very good video... Sometimes I dont know what to think but I was very happy to realize that the US is losing after their history of wasting money on terrorizing the whole world... So thats nice. I still don't know exactly for sure how I should live my life... I'm too afraid and inhibited still... Ill just say I won't be helping the US unless there are some heavy strings attached... Maybe I should study and exercise more... Keep drinking tea.

First up, GAME OF THE MONTH (that i could afford, played, and loved)
Flyknight!
A bug-sized first person soulslike that was bursting with charm. It's a bit short and janky, but it's also 6 bucks, and has really silly co op. A great game to grab and enjoy for an evening before moving on.
Explore, fight, loot and fish! Solo or in co-op mode in this Old School First Person Dungeon Crawler. Earn your knighthood as you oppose the evil witch Lunamoth and stop her curse which prevents everyone from growing wings.
Runner up for GotM(tica,p,al) is The Roottrees Are Dead!
I really enjoyed this, but i feel like other puzzle games I played this year (seance of blake manor, blue prince, golden idol) outpaced it in my mind. Still, a fun mystery solve, and i'm glad they removed the AI art form the prototype.
A genealogical mystery straight out of 1998. Scour the early Internet for clues, uncover hidden connections, and piece together the family tree behind the secretive Roottree Corporation.
Next the award for COOLEST BUT NICHE GAME goes to:
Aotenjo! This game started as the obvious (balatro-mahjong), but slowly become my favorite type of game, where it doesn't care as much about balance as itdo adding every new idea it can. If you like mahjong and fiddly balatro-likes, it's awesome.
The Mahjong Roguelike. Aotenjo: Infinite Hands is an deckbuilder where you will use Mahjong styles all over the world to beat innate threats, play different Patterns and combos, reach the "bottom" of Aotenjo, and discover ancient secrets....
The runner up in the CBNG category is the wildly expansive Football Coach College Dynasty
I don't really "recommend" this, more i show it to people and 90% of them go "what." and the other 10% lose their minds that someone made a good expansive indie football management game. Maybe that's you!
A true college football management game. Play as a coach or a school, recruit players, develop your team, and compete for national championships. Build a college football dynasty and become a coaching legend!
Next up of course is BEST FURRY GAME I AM DYING TO TRY BUT CAN'T AFFORD
Threefold Recital!
A massive hit in china, it's part ace attorney, part platformer, part puzzle game, part visual novel, all awesome furry designs. This game looks AWESOME but got overlooked in America, and GOD i want it.
The runner up for BFGIADTTBCA, meanwhile, is AIRBORNE EMPIRE!
I really liked airborne kingdom, and the sequel has more of what made that game great but with better writing AND cuter bird furries. It's exactly what I craved, and as soon as i can find time for another citybuilder, i'm all in.
Build your sky city while exploring a vast landscape in this Open World RPG City Builder. Combining the methodical construction and management of a city builder; the unique lift, balance, and propulsion needed for a flying city; and the compelling ch…
I'm sorry for cursing you with knowledge of this, but i'm fascinated by this game's baffling choices. It's an EXTREMELY blatant RoR2 rip off (some items are directly copied) but with huge tiddy anime girls and it's so. compellingly bad to me.
Lastly, is BEST FREE GAME of january (and tbh would have won second best furry game if not for winning this)
A Whole Wolfrush!
If this was just a free, funny little shmup project featuring some great furries, i'd already be recommending it. But this game holds LOTS of secrets... find em yourself
I actually haven't decided this yet, because i'm gonna do it tomorrow on stream! Yeah, this is a cop out, but unlike expensive indie games i can actually PLAY all the free games I want. So tune in tomorrow at bimbo.city if you wanna see the other stuff that came out in jan!
GAME I THOUGHT I PLAYED BUT IT TURNS OUT I PLAYED THE PREQUEL (WHICH WAS ALSO GOOD): Beyond Citadel! MOST CATBOYS IN A SURFMAP GAME: CatboyZoom! JUNE IS A WEEB AWARD: Robot girl's dream -RobotBattleChampionship! DOESN'T QUALIFY BUT I WANNA MENTION IT: The Mindwave Demo!
See you tomorrow for EVEN MORE GAMES, when we dive into February!
and tune in as well to me streaming where i'm gonna try all the best free games that came out in january/februrary/march so i can keep the free award going (assuming i'm not sick). one is like a protogen multiplayer fps? i'm excite
time for june's game awards for FEBRUARY of this year!!!

Are Valve and Cyan the only two classic small/pseudo-indie game studios that survived until the modern day without dying or getting acquired by a megacorp? (And Valve had to become a megacorp to do it)
My heart is weighed down with pain, and the responsibility is exhausting me… I don’t know whom to save first: my three daughters, my mother, or my husband. The burden is unbearably heavy on me, and I have no one but God. I pray that God sends me compassionate hearts today. Please help me… even the smallest support means life to us 💔🙏
I am Om Sham (Lina, 31). My husband Mahmoud Abu Shamalah (31) was injured in war in both legs and is now wheelchair-bound. His right foot is at risk of amputation — it has a 15cm bone deficiency requiring bone grafting that isn't available in Gaza.
This is a close-up, slightly angled, indoor photograph of two young people and an adult, lying down on a red surface. The adult is on the left side of the frame, looking directly at the camera with dark hair and a beard. To the adult's right, and slightly behind them, is a young person with light brown hair, also looking at the camera. In the foreground, and closest to the camera, is another young person with brown hair, looking directly into the camera with a slight smile. The background is blurry and appears to be a red fabric, possibly a blanket or bedspread. ― Here's an alt-text description of the image:

I am Rania from Gaza. A strong storm is approaching, and we have no safe shelter… our tent can no longer withstand the rain and cold, and my children are shivering from fear and freezing weather. The situation is extremely urgent, and I desperately need your help before the storm gets worse. Any donation—even a small one—can save us from a harsh night and give us a bit of safety. Please, don’t leave us alone in this cold 💔
The image depicts a low-angle view of a landscape under a dark sky. The lower portion of the image shows the silhouettes of buildings and structures, likely rooftops, with angular, irregular shapes. A warm, orange glow is visible on the horizon, partially obscured by the dark, cloudy sky above. The sky transitions from a muted orange near the horizon to a deep, dark gray and black further up. The overall impression is one of twilight or dusk with a dramatic contrast between the dark sky and the warm light on the horizon.

Astonishia Story—the legendary 1994 DOS classic that helped define Korean RPGs—is getting a full remake. It looks stunning, a true revival of one of Korea’s all-time great games, and it’s set to release on December 18.
But there’s one big catch: it’s not coming to Steam.
In fact, you can’t buy it outside South Korea at all. The only way to get it is through the Korean PURPLE store or as a physical copy from a local retailer.
I’ll be in South Korea this March… might just have to hunt down a copy myself.

I often feel nostalgic when I sense that I have missed opportunities to meet a massive number of new people across society in numerous ways, shapes, and forms, Unfortunately, I feel like I am missing out in a social life way too often, and I seriously believe that I can blame capitalism for all my personal problems in life. I also feel nostalgic when I look back to times from years ago, prior to the age when many of my peers had even considered relationships or even felt any sense of attraction in any way.
