[_] OC... 10 years later Pant_Zipper !lk38OS7kEE 3518011 I tested locally on the Ruffle nightly release /f/ uses, so short of lamely uploading an asset-less "test" version and bumbling through trying to "Delete Post," all for the sake of identifying issues I'd never even begin to understand or at least immediately know how to fix, why not just role the dice and upload it? If it's completely broken, that's what the "v1" at the end is for, silly. It should go without saying, but sorry I left so unceremoniously 10 years ago—The only remedy is to just as unceremoniously reappear. On the event the flash is playable/interactable: If you come across any breaky problems I'd be glad to know about them; any flash-functional questions, I'd be even more glad to attempt an answer. Marked for deletion (old).
>> [_] Pant_Zipper !lk38OS7kEE 3518012 LOL Just look at that pixelation. So THAT's the difference between running locally and running through browser: Small .pngs do NOT retain their bitmap crispyness, also the font in the info bar has changed. Downloading it and running it on Ruffle/Flash locally seems to correct it: The font should literally be discrete pixel-blocks and should stretch from the left to the right of the frame. I guess there WILL be a v2, and it's gonna be all default text-boxes and simple scrolling, none of this fancy .png stuff.

Yeah, I've been coming to that conclusion as the day's gone on; it works just fine on the app player, and that's really all I could ask for. I'm actually really proud of myself for coming up with the solutions I implemented, but I'm also aware it's my first foray into ActionScript/openFL, and those were just "possible" solutions—I want to go back and remake it, but not in order to abitrarily placate browser-Ruffle (to whom I owe nothing! lol), but to learn more techniques.

If I ever get a time machine you'll have seen me there. >># >I don't get it Just a miasma of creativity (writing, music, flash-construction, etc.) that needed exorcising, partly due to the sum's increasing unwieldlyness. If it's hard to parse, then that makes sense: No matter the circumstance, I've been known for inadvertently brokering ceasfire-deals between stomach muscles—in other words, everything I touch becomes "abstruse." If by "I don't get it" you mean you literally can't read the grabled flash, but you want to, but you also don't want to download it to play it on a non-browser flash emulator, I pdf-catbox'd it >>>/lit/24119353

>> [_] Pant_Zipper !lk38OS7kEE 3518089 >># >is this at all related to deleuze or nickland? Sorry, but I didn't know who those individuals were until I just now read their names here (I'm such a poser!). Wait a minute—I actually DO own a copy of Anti-Oedipus... but didn't get very far into it, reading what little I did 9+ years ago. So, to answer your question: No, at least not intentionally. Though because of your reply, I'm going to get (back?) up to speed on them—Really curious how you see their relating to what I wrote. Btw, the only explicit philosophy books I've read & consciously remembered wholesale are Zarathustra and some Plato dialogues—Erewhon I & II, as far as implicit philosophy books go. And honestly, I think I gave up on Anti-Oedipus because of how depressing delving into the unfair fundamentals of "modern society" were to me (even back then!). Erewhon tackles these inequities as well (er, through a Victorian England lens, at least), but I took such consolation in Butler's depiction—not necessarily his view—that the final consequence of rearranging such "incedental" (my quotes) social constructs around (whether toward something "better" or "worse") will only ever be: Seeing those exact same deficits and surpluses as before, now just popping up in opposite places. I'd much rather read about individual apotheoses (like in religious stuff) than societal apotheoses (e.g. "UTOPIA!!!"), but part of me admits that the apathy I've adopted on that matter is more a defense mechanism at this point, and that I—we—should probably still at least "try." >># >It was special. That day, /f/ was the fastest board on the entire site. A bunch of old flashers that haven't been on the site in a while also came. I don't want to believe that the brightest days are in the past.
>> [_] Pant_Zipper !lk38OS7kEE 3518092 >># >># I swear I didn't realize this until, like, 4 minutes AFTER I sent my reply: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erewhon#De leuze_and_Guattari I'm pretty rusty when it comes reading this kind of jargon, and I've only taken a quick cursory glance at what Deleuze actually wrote as relates to Erewhon, but I think it's safe to say that I don't think he came away with my interpretation/take-away at all—mine being: A proof of inevitable social equilibrium, of a zero-sum game between virtues and vices in larger human structures, no matter how a society is re-/arranged (his being: Its being just another example of a society of control; but with a neat name to appropriate)*, but, wow, was that CRAZY to notice after just now revisiting the Erewhon wiki page! Still, of course, Flash-related's chapter has nothing to do with any of this Erewhon-stuff, but I definitely have to thank you, anon! Wild how connected everything can be. *Please correct me if I'm wrong about this, since you, at the moment, seem to be the one more familiar with the guy.

I'm barely anybody. I made a few dozen flashes circa 2015, some of which I included music I wrote. I was beginning to post a more in-depth project here, but then I rudely left in a very unfun fashion. Back now, partly hoping to rectify/redeem that injury. >># >benis :DDD "Soft mutation of penis" in Welsh btw https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/benis#Mut ation >># >A supernova is brighter than a neutron star Not trying to debate that, but there's a theory out there that the only reason we have gold and other heavy elements is because of "kilonovas" (collisions of neutron stars)—they may not be brighter, but they sure do provide us with some neat material, the source for the namesake of a "golden age."

>> [_] Anon 3518121 >># >># >*Please correct me if I'm wrong about this, since you, at the moment, seem to be the one more familiar with the guy. Haha! funny you think im more knowledge about about Deleuze given that most of my knowledge about him comes from "An introduction to deleuze" by todd may which i left unfinished about 40 pages in (got too busy) and several actual quality yt vids on him. i ask because this recoursive symbolism and working with something like flash which was pretty cutting edge 20 years ago reminds me of these two philosophers... okay well mostly just nickland when it comes to the tech mixing with art and delezue when it comes to the multiple meanings of it. heres a good vid on deleuze https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9srhgHzU Fd4 and two on land if you care at all https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNtE_HH3 Q_w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrOVKHg_ PJQ youve inspired me to get back on that book since i did become really interested in the concepts he put forward, espically "deterritorialization" espically as its applied to in the modern web.20 that we interact with (the vid i linked about goes heavily into that after about 4 min). ill also look into and actually read erwhon since its seems pretty intersting. hope to speak to you again sometime dude!
