ZUN is 100xIndieGameDev
How many games have entire culture around the project?
I think Undertale had something similiar, but it's not that noticable like in Touhou.
There are some indie devs that are able to make music by self, art by self, story by self etc ... but their projects doesn't have that ... idk how to say so let's say "fandom" with culture.
I can't find a word, but to know and feel what i mean You need to dive in.
Another thing, something is magical about the world he created. The character design, and world building is great too.

Many Polish youtubers advertise OperaGX browser ...
Imagine making crazy video like ... "Why Librewolf is the best browser" + include ad about OperaGX 😂

"the docs straight up said SQLite isn’t suitable for production. I had a wrong impression for a long time." - This is why docs shouldn't contain opinion.

YouTube "Ad Injections" Are Breaking Ad Blockers

"The day Ad Block no longer works.... I will no longer using youtube" - I noticed that some people treat this comment as a joke, or whatever but ...
I personally will give up on youtube if this happens. I really plan detox.
Do we have alternative?
Yes, in form of BLOGS!
Here on mastodon, there's a lot of great people that have value too, and many have personal blogs - i think they are worth of attention.
Because businesses, tech companies overload web with garbage ... what we need is to build a "space" without that crap.
A small little space in web, like BSD Cafe.
I learned how to live without facebook, i never touched things like tiktok etc. . .
I'm ready to ditch my google account. The last piece... is to just buy a new phone, install alternative OS on mobile and at this point i will be done with google.
People need to build their own spaces and services.
It's important to teach people reaching this kind of independence.
To have better web, we need to start small and built it by yourself ... it's sad but true.
What big tech companies do is out of control anyway.

Thank You all!
I know i sometimes write garbage, but i accept You all - no matter of views etc.
I'm really grateful being part of small community.
Usually it's like with Youtube channels ... if channel is small, Most comments are from passionate people who are interested like author ... but when the channel grow to the point when there's many many people ... You can encounter any type of human being, so the quality lowers, right?
I think there's a reason why OpenBSD doesn't care to be popular ... like in nature, only strong will survive.
Have a nice time all!

I want to play with "PCI Passthrough" / "GPU Passthrough" whatever.
I plan to buy Ryzen 7 5700G or something similar with integrated graphics card.
I wonder, can You use integrated graphics for baremetal OS, and for vm PCI passthrough, GPU (rx 580 8gb)?
Whenever i read about PCI passthrough everyone say "You need 2x GPU". I'm thinking about running OS on integrated card, and use GPU for vm.
