Hrm. So #Godot has a MIT licensed port you can request via the Nintendo dev portal! That's rad!

Though in #GameDev licensing terms, how can they MIT license it? Wouldn't that mean anyone with access could upload it publicly? Which then violates Nintendo NDAs. rawrlab.com/godot_nintendo_swi…

in reply to Megan Fox

MIT is compatible with proprietary software because it does not require that the source is shared, just that the license continues to be packaged with the source.
in reply to Charles Randall

yeah that exactly, and to access it at all you have to be registered with Nintendo, and I doubt any developer going through it is stupid enough to share outside given how lawyer-hot Nintendo are

@Friendica Admins These are the data of the accounts present in my poliverso.org instance.

I don't understand what is meant by blog account. Even if there isn't even one, it's not clear to me what a blog account is and how you can create one.

Can anyone help me understand?

The colorful mating dance of the Tragopan pheasant. Having seen quite a few bird courtship displays on various Planet Earths, I thought I knew what to expect here, but I. did. not. Wow. Takes a bit to get going but stick with it. thekidshouldseethis.com/post/t…

I have no idea how long it takes for bird seeds to sprout! I am sure plenty of sunlight and waterfowl does the trick!


Today I am taking down the artwork 'Assembly' after 14 months on display in the Jackie Clarke Collection museum. It's a little sad, but also really nice that it was visible for so long.

The interactive #art installation dealt with entanglements between communication technologies, history and care. Here's a video of me talking about why I made this work, and what it was all about: clarkecollection.ie/whats-on/e…

you wanna create a slideshow? you use your pentium, you're gonna get about 20% slideshow. i3 7th gen pretty good gets you about 80-90%. now an i7 8th gen? that's just under 200% slideshow. imagine being able to make that much of slideshow power
in reply to Lynnesbian

ah yes. Of course I need at least an i7-8 to make slideshows.

this toot is old, but Intel's own presentations trying to convince you that only Intel will get you 200% of arbitrary performance haven't changed since then.

This is so much fun! Drive through a city somewhere in the world and listen to a local radio station! In Melbourne I was driven past the Queen Vic Market and the City Baths. The radio station never quite loaded, but I could still hear the street noises. In Seattle I got to listen to NPR and drive past the train depot and Smith Street Tower! It's a bit ASMR.

Well, here is my painting "Apples at Dawn". The lighting today isn't great for photography in my house, but you get the gist. A friend of mine runs an organic fruit and vegetable shop, and I have painted this to go on the wall behind his cash register.

@clarice overhere And it is well-known that apples and crackers with cheese go very well together! Maybe I should paint some cheese next!
