- The demoscene stops being a politically neutral place when the political issue on the table is "which group of people shall we exterminate today"

- On the memes thing, I have to dispute the suggestion that they're just being lazily played straight with no attempt at cleverness. Yes, subtlety did go out of the window, but that's kind of the whole point... it's lampshading the notion that demosceners have a solemn duty to systematically port these things to every platform in existence, firstly by setting up a transparently silly pretext ("your prescription is ready...") for shoehorning them in here, and then blitzing through them in 30 seconds to subvert the usual state of affairs (namely, drip-feeding every compo in the next six months with Pharmafarjan, PharmaNICCC 2000 and Pharma Apple, which I think we can all agree would have been truly lame).
Point taken, if you're thoroughly sick of demoscene memes at this point then this isn't going to be any consolation - doing The Thing ironically is still Doing The Thing. But I do think there's a place on the scene for self-indulgent memey things, and that's the kind of demo we collectively set out to make, so no regrets there... - isokadded on the 2022-11-01 20:36:01

- @ham: A bit simpler than that... the angle of rotation varies on a slow sine wave, and then the centre point moves at a fixed velocity in that direction (with a bit of parameter fudging to stop it from drifting off screen too quickly).

- demo TIC-80 THIS IS A BROADCAST by Matt Current [web]
- Masterful. This is glitch as glitch should be - used to evoke a feeling, not just to test the pain tolerance of the audience. Even on a high-end platform this would be striking, but the fact that it's weaving in the quirks and limitations of the platform, without ever feeling contrived, really takes it to the next level.
