What was that one where you were a little cute yellow walking bird and you jumped on these primarily vertical fanciful maps, and you rode in little balloons and stuff you jumped in?

Something dragon! Red dragon?

You are talking a lot of philosophical stuff, but the reality was when you wanted to get the low level hardware, there was very little documentation. Even banks of the technical documents had giant blanks saying these are a bunch of video registers and interrupts, basically good luck lol

My assumption was it had something to do with luminosity, but I’m at the end of my technical expertise for this implementation of insane technology lol

I’m going to actually you lol
The reason it works better with CRT is because of the phosphors. They continue to glow, long after the signal has passed over. Check out a CRT slow motion.
Everything to do with display technology involves tricking the eye and relying on persistence of vision which is innate.

I could also see DLP being applied in new QM research… lasers are being increasingly used to trap and manipulate atomic nuclei

You are totally remembering correctly! I recall this as well, but the hype died out quickly.

Oh my beloved C64! I made my first “real” games with it, my buddies were artistic and made the music, sprites, animations, etc. I programmed the tools to make them!
The worst aspect of the C64 was that the hardware was a mostly undocumented mystery zone. As an early teen, I had the C64 programmer’s reference manual checked out of our library for 2 years!!! Doing any kind of advanced graphics meat PEEKing and POKEing random addresses and registers to see what would happen. A nightmare!

I’m so happy you noticed, the colors cannot be reproduced in a digital photo, when it shines in the sun it’s so beautiful!

It sounds insane, but the array that drives it is functionally not that different from the array that individually causes LCD crystals to shift.
I have DLP parts sitting around because they’re cool.

Thanks for the link, speedruns of IWBTG fan games are a fascinating watch.
One of my favorites is …fandom.com/…/I_Wanna_Kill_The_Kamilia_3

Why would an add-on be needed for this when all of those are tracked by the internals?
What special and unique features do these offer that do not come native to the device?

Instead of doing this thing where you fret about it and ask other people, ask the guy.

No, you’re desperately flailing to try to think of yourself as correct when everybody knows you’re wrong.

This is bullshit

They do because shareholders will sue if profit doesn’t rise.

Thank you, this is complete dog shit hokum

Best thing about Vegas is the Pinball Museum & Hall of Fame.
I got double-LITZ there on my honeymoon vacation, and it was more meaningful to me than the marriage.

My card-based probability/skill games are currently on Riverboats. I just made the games, no concept whatsoever about the hardware side.
I’m curious as hell… what do they track and how?

Change the numbers to rubber balls with pictures of ducks or trains and different iconography. You can now intuit that both sets are the same size.

Skip Hades and miss nothing.
It’s a wildly-overrated game. Tedious, derivative and grindy.

Your neighbor would always be playing your favorite songs and artists, but just loud enough that you can’t hear the high- or mid-tones

Always remember that coke and pepsi do not use recycled plastic in their coke or pepsi packaging, yet they are outwardly huge proponents of recycling the waste they create
