Who is your fav character and why?

Although Johan and Tenma are very appealing and have very deep and well written characters, I really really loved Grimmer. It has been a while since I rewatched Monster so forgotten about lots of things, but I saw an edit before and it reminded me of Grimmer and how much I loved him.

I honestly might even say he is better than Tenma. Tenma is such a good person like dang, but Grimmer is just as good while also having a lot of extreme trauma and sorrow. The scene where he saved that little boy was really tough. His smile (Idk what to say about it but there's def a lot to be said).

I wanna hear more about characters and why they're your fav

Omkörning med motorcykel?

Antag att vänsterfältet i bilden har trafik i motsatt riktning och att högerfältet har en lång kö som kör väldigt långsamt med bilar väldigt nära mittlinjen. Får man då, med motorcykel, korsa mittlinjen för att köra om alla bilar?

Det vill säga, endast om man vet att mötande bilar befinner sig långt från mittlinjen. Alltså att det finns mer än tillräckligt med utrymme i mitten, även om majoriteten av utrymmet ligger på vänsterfältet.

Antag alltså att det är säkert; är det olagligt? Är alternativet att sitta och vänta?

Jag vet att det är helt olagligt då linjen är heldragen, men hur är det om linjen är som på bilden?

Avoid freezing your PC?

I've only learned C++ in uni and then it was protected environment in a way. Now I was working on a project involving graphics (raylib) and, a few times, running the code caused my entire PC to freeze and I had to restart.

I'm on Linux and running the code by doing

cmake --build .
./executable

Is there a way to avoid the entire PC freezing when I mess up? Also is there any risk of overwriting parts of the memory?

(I think the issue with my code was either calling too many draws of a GPU texture or even just wrongfully indexing an array in a loop)

EU Steam Group

Hi

I had made a Steam group so I and others can see if they can form a group to play. Currently there are about 5 people, but I was hoping to have as many as possible.

To be frank, I'm not exactly trying to make friends. Just want people to be able to do achievements since I'm currently 16 achievements away from 100%. So you can just see who's down to join in the moment you wanna play.

Obv people can chat and become friends if they want to, but (for me at least) that's not the idea behind the group.

I also just don't use Discord that much nor wanna join servers, so that's why I made this.

Join here: https://steamcommunity.com/chat/invite/aJajlJPA

Fear of missing out on going out

In my life I generally have always enjoyed and prioritized the peace. I don't care what or where, as long as I can be layed back and without any worries. I have always wanted to have a quite life above all else.

Lately, for the past month or two, I've gotten this new feeling that I have "thought" about before but never felt. I have no friends and never had a girlfriend. For the most part I enjoyed that and honestly have pushed away friends so I can have this life (lowkey I'm yoshikage kira without the killing).

Lately I feel so left out and I feel like everyone is out having fun with their friends and going out to get laid with a new girl each night. I'm not really sure I even want any of this, but this feeling won't go away.

Anytime I see a guy my mind does an analysis about whether he gets girls/gets laid (and if he does, he's cool while I'm a fucking left out loser bum).

It's like my feelings aren't obeying my very logical mind.

My REAL hobbies and interests are (basically) severely immoral so I can't "be myself". So aside from that I (have always thought that) I enjoyed being at home, playing video games, eating snacks, watching youtube/anime/etc.

Don't know what my question is, I think I already know the problem and solutions, but my feelings won't budge. Any thoughts or ideas might trigger these feelings to F OFF ALREADY

Intake calculation

When I want to add a meal or snack, for example a lunch. After choosing lunch and adding say 1k calories, if I go back to add more, say 1.2k, the 1.2k will override the 1k rather than be added to it.

I eat a bunch of snacks in the form of fruits and protein bars, so I would often just rather:

Add -> 200 (intake + 200)

Over:

Add -> snack -> afternoon snack -> (value already at 246 and now I have to add 152 to it)

The timing of intake doesn't affect the calorie count so I'd rather just have it be a number that I keep adding to rather than the current system.

Books about psychology and experiments

I always enjoyed the Vsause series about psychology and I'd go as far as say it had changed my life almost entirely.

Also these "dark/unethical experiments" that are mainly done in wars and on animals are very attractive to me. I wouldn't say I'm evil and enjoy the suffering of others in the slightest, I'm very much the opposite in real life, but something about the "darkness" and "hopelessness" of these experiments feels extremely fascinating to be.

I don't apply what I learn in real life because I think it's kinda boring and fake (for example using manipulation to get a girl). I just like learning about the human nature or even animal nature and I don't know why but when it's dark/negative/evil it is much more appealing to me (maybe shock value?).

I'm very not into reading but want to start. Any recommendations based on these interests?

My main priority is relevance to my said interest, but the second priority is it being not too long.

Extra: Any books that you think are a MUST read with 0 personal bias? For example, 1984 is extremely recommended so I'll be reading it if I can manage to get into reading.

A simple but crispy first-person character controller for new devs

Wanted to share this simple code for (better) player movement. I see lots of cool games that use the default Unity character controls, which don't feel good at all as a player to use.

I wanted to share my code that I've used for a while (always come back to Unity but never have time to actually finish a game).

It is 3 files that include: movement, running, jumping, double jumping, dashing, sound effects, nice bobbing and camera tilt (bobbing and camera tilt like some of the OG games).

Pretty much all variables affecting these mechanics are adjustable from the editor easily.

If you want to use it make sure to check out the Wiki to know how to set it up (it's very simple).

If you have any questions or even improvements let me know. I wrote the code a bit of a while ago so it's a bit simplistic (which I think is a good thing because new devs/programmers will find it easier to understand and edit).

Want to share a player controller for newer developers

I have noticed many games on sites like itchio that are quite nice for being made by new players; most of them have a good idea but lack a good feel to the movement/character controls.

I had before loved making games but didn't continue. Still, I have saved code for the character controller/movement and was wondering if I should post them somewhere for new users who just want to make a game before caring about learning (how I was).

It is 3 C# files and relatively simple to use in the inspector.

It includes:

* Camera movments

* Player movements

* Running

* Jumping and double jumping

* Dashing

* VERY nice bobbing and side movement cam tilt.

Everything above can be turned on or off depending on the needs (with a editor toggle). Everything is customizable (movement speed, dashing speed/distance, gravity, jump/double jump force, etc) all within the editor.

There are also options for footsteps, jumping, and dashing sound effects.

The bobbing is like the old quake games and was my first complex(er) code I wrote and I like it :D

Basically it's crispy movement that I would rather have over that default unity character controllers that most new devs use.

Is there a place to share this where people might actually benefit from it? Or should I not bother?

Lethal Company but solo

Games like Lethal Company but more fit for solo play?

I mainly enjoy the atmosphere of LC and also that you can jump into matches quickly and abandoning the mission won't be such a big deal. Any games that fit that description, even if not extraction games, are appreciated.

I haven't tried but don't think I'd enjoy R.E.P.O.

I'm mainly looking for the horror:y atmosphere without the actual horror. Same thing with cry of fear; the gameplay isn't that enjoyable but the atmosphere is perfection.

Should I watch season 3?

I have heard a lot of bad things about it and, while they are true, I don't know to what degree the animation/whole season is terrible.

Based on only what I've heard and seen from the memes, it's basically unwatchable.

So I'm wondering, should I watch it or wait for a remake? Will it have a remake in the near future?

Becoming manly while being socially anxious

I have very low confidence and is extremely socially anxious and inept and shy. When I need to speak up, I usually just walk to the person to talk otherwise I just (basically fail). I have a hard time showing appreciation and also receiving it (aside from simple "thank you" and "no problem").

Despite that, I really want to become "manly". And by that I mean be seen as manly, strong, confident, reliable (most important), respectful, etc. Basically be seen as someone with a strong character; as someone a lady would think is good for her daughter (I just mean that because of how parents usually care more about those sorts of qualities over being handsome/funny/etc).

Any tips? As you can see from the post I don't know how to express thoughts/ideas which is a big factor in my social failure, but feel free to ask anything I'd be glad to (try to) explain

Games to enjoy loneliness/solitude/melancholy/wistfulness

I'm not sure how to ask this exactly, but I feel burned out from gaming and also from people. I want the "riding a motorcycle alone at night" feeling, or "sitting at a lonely cliff and watching the city" type of feeling.

One game that gave me this feeling quite perfectly was Cry of Fear; the only problem with it is that it's quite scary and the feeling of fear/anxiety/stress is stronger than the feeling I'm looking for (possibly Melancholy).

A few things I need:

* Not too much dialog, or even better, just a few sentences here and there (to emphasize the loneliness).

A few things I'd rather but not obligated:

* I'd rather the game not be tough to get into, but at the same time have some depth.

* First person/3D.

* Be able to play quick bursts without it hurting my "emersion" of the story

Any recommendations are nice, even if they don't fit the description perfectly.

Children exposed to porn content on TikTok

I'm going to try my best to not use derogatory language but I'm very upset because of this...

I've only started using TikTok about 3 days ago, and I CANNOT believe my eyes. I'm by no means a sensitive person, I can watch porn, gore, or literally anything without caring. The real issue is that TikTok is pretty much the #1 social media app and is used by almost every child. THIS is where this problem goes from meh to extremely unacceptable.

Kids use this app, and what do they get to see? Oh IDK, cocks, vaginas, chests and literal actual porn.

I'm trying hard to be understanding, but what failure of a biological substance thought it alright to allow users unfiltered allowance of adding gifs with, apparently, ZERO moderation? How lacking is thinking in this entire company to allow this? I can understand if one or two people thought it was a good idea, hell, even 10 people. But, the whole fucking company??

I cannot post pictures here I have a small collection of porn gifs that I saved just to show the extreme degree of this problem (just imagine straight up porn, cumshots, blowjobs, gay porn, guys jerking off, pussy pics, etc)

Anytime your kid uses TikTok and opens the comment section they are exposed to this extremely explicit porn content.

Is signal fully encrypted?

I saw that story with the girl that got 15 years in prison for PRIVATE messages on WhatsApp and think it's completely dystopian...

A few sources led me to Signal and so I wanna ask if it really is fully private and encrypted.

If I was a drug dealer or serial killer (I'm not, just trying to make a point), can I still use it comfortably or will they still check messages?

Again I don't have anything to hide but my humor with friends is quite something and I don't wanna feel like I can't joke PRIVATELY with friends because the app is listening or will think I'm serious.
