Go give “I am not a woman I’m a god” a listen and tell me Reznor’s influence isn’t really obvious. It’s basically Yassified “Closer”.

1994? Reznor and Ross are still dropping albums and doing a lot of great work. They made the soundtrack for the new TMNT movie, helped produce an amazing Halsey album in If I Can’t Have Love I Want Power, and while The Trilogy has a lot of filler I liked the tracks on Add Violence.

Infinitapestry.

Yeah I had canvas running on my watch so I could do other things like working out and texting while I played. Unfortunately the experience on a watch was awful because zooming on a 1.5 inch circular screen was really hard. Sometimes the canvas would desync and so I’d have to reload the screen and rezoom all over again.

Well my point with 36 pixels is that it would let people use the site in a healthy way (daily) but also allow decent velocity of creation for a slow-developing canvas. The details could be tweaked I just figured “once a day sounds right, no pressure then” and "150 users doing 24 pixels per day would fill a 10th of the canvas (the scroll-right number, 100,000 pixels) in a month. Obviously the numbers could be tweaked depending on activity of the community and the dimensions of the editable canvas, I would just say targeting a good experience for “daily use” is healthy for a permanent site. Because I know my use of this site this weekend was anything but healthy.

Maybe put the cap at 16 (assuming hourly pixel generation), so you can hit the site twice daily plus a little wiggle room while still reaching peak output. Too often the canvas felt like being the little Dutch boy with the finger in the dike.

Imho the approach of punishing overwriting with slower regen is the right move - every overwrite pixel you place should add a 1 pixel delay to your pixel generation, so vandalizing (and repairing) takes twice as long as creating.

Oh, my bad. I don’t know if “da” was finished first and I just missed it or “for scale” was finished first, but I thought I saw “banana for scale” first and assumed the “da” was added later by somebody else.

There was a little. Like “banana for scale” became “bananada🇨🇦 for scale”. Sadly it got half-reverted at the end, which is the worst of birth worlds imho. And I had to protect the Canada flag from some vandalizing. Things that were possible to change with small single-person edits happened, like mangling the text in the Stardew Valley banner, or the magnificent bastard who put one red pixel in the bottom right corner of The Blue Zone.

Bottom left. Look for the big Canadian flag. The other Aphex Twin logo is near the big Nine inch nails logo.

Yes, I was thinking the same. You could even do a “flags blank” where it starts with flag-sized rectangles of various random colors.

Permanent one working with a different model. Like 1 pixel per hour with a fixed drop rate (instead of this “stay and place as fast as you can for best performance”), and you can hold like 36 pixels. So basically you drop a few dozen pixels daily then you’re done. After every 100,000 clicks, you move the window 100 pixels to the right, making the leftmost 100 pixels locked forever creating a slowly growing endless immutable banner.

I could see a permanent one working with a different model. Like 1 pixel per hour with a fixed drop rate (instead of this “stay and place as fast as you can for best performance”), and you can hold like 36 pixels. Once a month you move the canvas 200 pixels to the right, so the leftmost zone slides into read-only-world.

Yikes, I was feeling ashamed for cracking 1000. I had it running on my smartwatch so I could used my phone at the same time.

What’s funny is I had a really busy day yesterday. Went to a reggae concert, took my kid to the rock climbing gym, went to the beach, worked out, did yardwork, etc. Somehow placed 4 figures of pixels?

I just love that Boards of Canada logo is squeezed in between the Ontario flag and the Aphex logo. (I was helping to finish the Ontario flag and the c/Ontario text banner).

Yup. I helped the Quebecois cuss in French. I barely speak any French but I saw they were having trouble over by the Quebec flag because they tried to move the text to fit in by this pink furry thing.

I just like that there were two separate Aphex Twin logos there.

That’s what she said.
