    In most modern tetris games, imagine if you will that there is a set amount of pieces in a bag (like 3 of each different piece). The game draws one from a big, gives it to you and the process continues until there is nothing left, then this metaphorical bag refills, ensuring you don't get like 7 of the same piece at once.

    This one just goes FUCK IT so you get games where you get screwed like that.

    I think you haven't caught on that it's actually a lot more malicious that that :)

    I know it's out to screw you

    it's just a little jarring when it goes that far to screw you because it can't think of any other piece that you could shove into your escalating tower

    I noticed that once I had a tetris set up where all I needed was a line piece I never saw one.

    Aw c'mon SOTAR, it's not that hard

    It's literally called EASY Tetris, after all

    my theory is that flash became easier at a pace faster than canvas became non-annoying

    But the problem is that flash is a second-class experience pretty much all the time. It uses ungodly amounts of CPU, it's super slow, the graphics look all fucked up, and for some reason, there's like, half a second of input lag on everything. Plus it doesn't work at all on mobile. Canvas is a little more annoying to target, but it's free and also has none of those shortcomings.

    Alright [chat], I also sleep

    Good night everyone, be good to each other

    Also be good to your doggies

    And all doggies everywhere

    Scratching one dog's back.

    The other one is chasing his tail on the far side of the room. Takes occasional breaks to bark at passing cars.

    Third dog is staying with my mother in law for a while, evidently barked so hard at the mailman that he filed an official complaint.
    Christ dude, the dog is 6 pounds, you will be ok.

    I made a game! Hotline Maui. Requires mouse and keyboard.

    I keep meeting very cool not single or completely uninterested girls.

    I completely understand why. The reminder is just a bit of a bummer.

    I'm watching Akira right now for the first time in 10 years. The two main dudes are Kaneda and Tetsuo. Why is it called Akira.

    There's another girl that's kind of flirting with me? Hard to tell, she might just be a playful sort. It's one of those "Maybe we're both trying to play it cool" scenarios. Not that it matters, I am essentially unavailable because at some point they'll ask me to choose between them and candy and they can't win that.

    well - i remember communities of developers who poured a lot of effort into becoming adept at javascript and VML, and then having IE7 unceremoniously leave them out with the garbage

    but a flash applet written in 1998 still works
