<quoting=orchids postID=998 threadID=147>but i will say that I think AI would have helped me a lot in school. There are so many classes that I wasted my time in because the professors couldn't communicate ideas in a way that I could wrap my head around ...

official labor day weekend thread

by vividpixel in general on sep 1, 2023

HOWDY, fellow laborer!

In addition to being a homebody who's trying to stop wasting money on old games and stuff on 2 wheels, I'm still not entirely recovered from breaking my hip and so I'll be planted at home. Good enough shape to do some chores and ...

Hey everyone!

by vividpixel in welcomes on aug 13, 2023

Hmm, I'm thinking now about if I've posted this forum to Reddit before. My username initials are NEF. It would be funny if I brought you here as I'm in a similar spot of working in a tech field while trying to get a Bachelor's in CS.

when i eventually pay for a custom domain, there will be a bit more cohesion between this site and that one.

This seems like an appropriate use of basement.community; now ...

summer plans

by vividpixel in general on jul 22, 2023

It's been what most would consider hot here in Vegas for a while but we almost got through June without seeing triple-digit temperatures! At this point we're reaching 115 F on the daily and us silly motorcycle riders are still commuting in it. But this ...

Doesn't taste like Elmer's, and I eat a lot of glue. skeptical

Creating a programming language

by vividpixel in software on jun 23, 2023

This may be a controversial take, but recently in life I have taken a liking to BASIC-inspired languages. QB64, PureBasic/SpiderBasic, AppGameKit Script, B4X. I use them with static typing enforced and none of the old-school "goto ...

fitness (whole pizza...) thread

by vividpixel in food, drink, fitness on jun 23, 2023

Ahhh, exercise. While I've never been able to dedicate myself to such a thing, occasionally I get serious about playing Quest VR and you can really get a workout with that, especially having a large dedicated space to move around without worry.

For someone ...

If it was a joke then why did I just step in semen, hmm?

While I understand the benefits of creating your own search funtionality, in the meantime you could integrate something like a DuckDuckGo search without much hassle, I bet!

Something I thought was cool on old Invision Power Board and vBulletin forums ...

analogue pocket (and other fan-made systems)

by vividpixel in video games on jun 23, 2023

I do love what Analogue has produced, but I've opted to stick to the real deal home consoles so far. Fortunate enough at this time in life to have a 32" Trinitron flat screen CRT and all the old gaming systems I can ever want. When I was wanting a Sega ...

What are you currently reading?

by vividpixel in the library on jun 23, 2023

Having never experienced anything related to The Witcher, my boss did recommend the books but so far I had a hard time getting into the first one. Hard time wanting to just read a book in general, even though I can get really into them.

I got a couple ...

Anti-squatting technology

by vividpixel in general on jun 19, 2023

For an introductory price of $6.66, I could not resist it. I think that's a valid concern with an especially non-mainstream TLD like .community. Dot com is less ambiguous when displayed in print. Though putting the protocol https:// disambiguates plenty ...

Anti-squatting technology

by vividpixel in general on jun 18, 2023

basement.community originated in an alternate timeline where the .com TLD was never created. I've brought it here for a very good reason: it saves you three letters of typing per day over a typical human lifespan of ...

I'll be damned, it's almost like you went back in time and put the feature in before it was even requested!

Avatars do not update on previous posts

by vividpixel in technical feedback on jun 18, 2023

Edit: I apologize, I changed a different setting and I now notice the banner saying it may take up to 30 minutes to reflect! Plus the STICKY THREAD for general bugs.

I'm not for sure this is unintended functionality, but if you change your avatar ...

I'm not seeing a button to link to a particular post, but I think if we had something like that near the quote button it'd be neato. https://basementcommunity.com/threads/8?postID=1061#1061

I second those Doritos, but the real hot Cheeto addiction is the fries.
