Ok

Like the original ace combat from the 90s was cool

Man, I'm so glad I installed Arch

not using it, but installed it

because it helped me get a better understanding of partitioning with fdisk

and other things

I'm a huge fan of 90s platformers

SNES mostly

The original playstation had good games

One thing that surprised me to learn is that Ludwig Wittgenstein was related to Friedrich Hayek.

Also how much did Mosley influence Germany wasn't his philosophy the core @Undead Mockingbird

Tbh guys games are so much better these days

They were cousins. I had no clue until I read about it a few yeasr back.

Dont be on about back then

Let's talk about today

@Cody not EA games

Starting bids?

hmm ...

wait, hold ont

I like retro games a lot

I like reading the source code of some of them.

I've not delved into old games' source code

might be a cool experience

@Undead Mockingbird hitler and Mosley where cousins?

Sounds boring af

Yes, it is. It's like learning years later how all your favorite games worked on the inside, years later.

It's kind of like digging up a loved on from the graveyard and performing an autopsy.

KInd of.

Why delve into codes, you could actually play a game instead

Just better, of course.

Because it's interesting

It's amazing to see how it all worked in the background.

TO understand BSP, binary partitioning of space, how to build an engine, to tinker with it, etc.

Yeah, I guess it probably looked better than them 4 bit graphics too

It's interesting how all the basics pretty much still apply to modern engines.

The approach to engine design, collision detection, etc. hasn't change that drastically.

And, of course, you can do hilarious stuff, like mess with the AI or physics.

Sounds boring

Play the game instead
