Happy Sunday computer obsessives! We’re back this weekend to offer you another helping of sweet, sweet programming memes . And what better time to browse some code-based funnies than a day you all, hopefully, have off? I’ve said before, I don’t know how to code. At least, I don’t know how to code very well. I’m notoriously bad at understanding the fundamentals of any language. Combine that with a complete inability to do complex math; I just wasn’t built for coding. Thank my freshman-year profe…

Things might be a little better if I stayed in school for programming. Getting paid the big bucks to live in Silicon Valley and play around with computers all day? Sign me up! My main issue was that I’m terrible at math and professional programming is nowhere near as idyllic as what I’ve just described. I don’t have much coding experience. I took a few courses on Code Academy, goofed around making Python scripts as a teenager, and then switched my major from computer science in my second semest…

There's a new chatbot in town and it's unhinged.

There's a bunch of reasons why Minecraft is the best-selling video game of all time, one of them being the fact that the Minecraft world is truly open. There's no wrong way to play—one can choose creative mode, in which the player can unlock all the different kinds of blocks available and build almost anything imaginable. Or the player can choose survival mode, where resources are scarce, predators loom, and the game's internal lore becomes more apparent. Anyone who's managed to kill the Ender…

Companies that aren't afraid to stoop real low

On Sunday, Microsoft revealed plenty of exciting new game releases and updates at the 2022 Xbox and Bethesda Showcase, but the star of the show was undoubtedly Starfield— an open world sci-fi RPG that has already been dubbed by many as “ Fallout in space” and “No Man's Skyrim.” Bethesda showed off 15 minutes of Starfield gameplay, which might not have inspired the sort of hype they were hoping for. Many on Twitter, Reddit, and the comment sections of various gaming news outlets have been roasti…

Did you hear that there's going to be a Minecraft movie by Napoleon Dynamit e director Jared Hess? And it's going to star Jason Momoa? I know, I know. You're probably thinking, “what the hell?” I was pretty dubious about the whole idea until I remembered that I felt the exact same way after seeing the LEGO Movie trailer for the first time, and that movie wasn't so bad! And there's plenty of lore and RPG servers that the Minecraft movie creators can borrow (or steal) from.

I had never really played Minecraft before the year 2020. Sure, I'd watched my little cousins play when I was in my early twenties and thought I was too good for video games that looked like they were for babies, but what did I know back then. I never could have predicted that Minecraft would inevitably become one of the most important and fulfilling video games for me in the worst of times. In June of 2020, I was totally miserable for reasons I'm sure you can guess. I was unemployed, quarantin…

Did you know that a collective of mad lads who call themselves Build The Earth - UK are creating an entire replica of the United Kingdom in Minecraft on a 1:1 scale? The group's YouTube channel was created in 2020, so they've been building the UK in Minecraft for at least two years. Their channel shows how much progress they've made so far, and it's pretty impressive. As if you needed another reason to love Minecraft, right? We can't wait to see what other insane things people do with the game…

Greetings, gamers . There are so many games to play and so little time, and yet there are still millions of active Minecraft players worldwide. Why is that? Because Minecraft is so simple and yet it can be any game you want it to be. Minecraft has the potential to be the greatest RPG of all time, depending on whose server you're on. It can be a virtual art museum or library of information censored in the real world. It can be The Sims or Call of Duty. It can be a place for friends to meet up du…

Goodbye sweet prince.

Mamma mia

Happy Anniversary DOOM!

At least we get memes out of this.
