the picardie maneuver
If I were you this would be my desktop wallpaper permanently 😂
Human music…? I like it!
My man!
Rendering issues are just a minor inconvenience, the real horror starts when your chunk is offloaded and you get sent to the void.
Things missing collision when you least expect it sucks too.
go to open fridge
handle is just an image skinned over a flat surface
sad times
go to open fridge? It won’t occur to you because the cycles for hunger.state and all others >husband.npc will be suspended.
Fun fact: video games stop rendering everything the player isn’t looking at. That NPC right behind you that’s following you around? Not rendered until you look at it. There’s also a common technique where scenes at a great distance are rendered with fewer polygons (detail) because the player can’t perceive the full detail.
In this case, we assume the girlfriend is both far away (out of town) and yet still observing the OP (rendered at all).
She’s watching you!
She really does care! ♥️♥️♥️
Or it’s just a badly optimised game
Both of them sound like a Yandere simulator
Barely-related tangent, but in Breath of the Wild enemy archers have a much reduced chance to hit you when they aren’t within camera view. I thought it was a weird artifact of culling assets but I’m pretty sure it is actually an intentional difficulty decision to help warn players there is danger without them getting damaged by something they can’t see. It’s not impossible to get hit when not looking at enemies (maybe 1/10 hit?) but I figured out I could run out into an area, point the camera at the ground and basically not take damage from archers. Kind of fun.
In Dune II (1992) the units move slower when they’re off screen. This is useful because you can only select one unit at a time to give orders, so if you want to send an army into the enemy base you send them one at a time. But then you can carefully position your camera to allow the units at the rear to catch up with those in the lead so your whole army arrives at once and overwhelms the enemy.
I used to do that in online games on pc. Crank the settings to potato and suddenly all those big poofy bushes disappear or shrink to a useless degree. Also made everything run faster so movement was more smooth yet responsive.
Watch out, Crash Bandicoot is interested on those.
My man!
Zap apples!

Hey man. You get to fuck the player.
If you’re curious, this dessert is made with a silicon mold designed by a Ukrainian Pastry Chef named Dinara Kasko. She comes from Kharkiv and had to flee Ukraine when the war broke out. She was for a time in London and is now in Los Angeles.
Her Apple cake recipe has a chocolate sponge cake, a caramel cream cheese layer, a nutty crunchy layer, an apple compote layer and it is encased in a cream cheese mousse.
The velvet effect is obtained by freezing the cake completely at very low temperature and then spraying molten white chocolate and cocoa butter with food coloring, using an air spray. The temperature difference makes the drops freeze instantly when coming into contact with the surface.
Holy shit that looks tasty
Theres a Ukrainian bakery on my street and I swear it outclasses any other baked goods place I’ve ever tried
i’ve been taking online pastry lessons with the Culinary School of Kyiv and the quality of their teaching is fantastic!
Ukrainians are crafty as fuck. I’ve bought several cosplay bits off etsy and it seems like nearly all of them are from Ukraine.
Also I absolutely love watching the magic they work with drones. Watching a drone fly over troops and detonate an antipersonnel mine to frag all of them? Art.
Krikzz is also based on Ukraine, and they make flashcarts for old consoles called “Everdrive.” They’re a staple in the retro gaming, retro modding, and homebrew communities.
I just idle
T-posing gang
Unironically do sometimes feel like I shut myself down when people aren’t around.
ngl it feels good when the rendering engine shuts off and I can just wait until the sim restarts.
Wumpa fruit
