Will myself, my clients, my custom code for my specific WP ecosystem, and our content be replaced by Gutenberg? This is a question I have a much more reliable answer to...

Wow, I was expecting graphics in the style of Return of the Obra Dinn, but this is much more impressive. Lucas Pope's work on bringing the 1-bit aesthetic into the modern age is fascinating in itself. One of my favorite excerpts is how

There's some kind of sickening scroll acceleration applied to this page, making it exceedingly frustrating to use with a magic mouse. Not surprised due to level of shit shoveled onto the site, but I have no idea why anybody would want

This gives words to a frustration that I've had with many roguelikes. I don't want to /drink/ -> /ladder/, I want to do ladder things with the ladder, which should be a very short list. Freedom does not grea

It's a bit of a tired adage, but that portable television sends mail faster than any rocket, can simulate sending many men to many moons (and could replace all the computing apparatuses used to send the first men to the moon), and... w

The service is entirely free, in game and out of game. Fuel Rat 'rescuers' (or just 'fuel rats,' there might be a better term they use) do it for the fun of it. It's an amazing example of emergent gameplay. I'v

It's not the same intro, but the globe intro and other intros used by these channels are reminiscent of easily searchable stock content: https://www.pond5.com/stock-footage/61650429/red-and-white-n...

These sorts of 'illustrative only' graphics get pumped out every day in marketing design, even for large brand names. As a young junior designer, I once had a creative director ask me to use a Samsung phone asset to illustrate how
