>/v/ made its own game multiple times
Why haven't we made our own game console using FPGAs or microcontrollers? Do we just lack talent and intelligence?

because everyone here is either a pseud, in some shitty work contract where the company owns everything they do and anything else would break a non-compete, or a self-serving prick who only cares about money.

>I used search engines to look up "top secret TV" or "streaming channels for elite-eyes only" but came up empty.
even if they were real, why would they just show up in a Google search?
what a retarded schizo

because it's not just
>make a console in vhdl / verilog
You would need mechanics for the console and somebody would need to make games for it.
Also the end user would have to build the system in the because if you are going to assemble it the cost will be high.

>why does nobody make anything
Because the maidposters were banned. You banned the only people who actively came here on a daily basis to make things. What did you think was going to happen? Did you think banning the makers would be good for making?

this is me desu. I still do stuff, but I don't try and go out of my way to advertise it. basically every cuckold in the Jewnited States is held to something like this except where it's illegal, where I think California is the only place where this is true (and they still put it in your wagie contract anyway)

>Because the maidposters were banned
ya, why did they anyway? I didn't agree with their shit, but at least they did stuff. I remember seeing a maidposter post their crypto primitives library. was cool, even if useless.

Sad!

I made a cute little game using RPG Maker once.

Gee. I wonder why?

/g/ will insist that any threads about doing something useful belong on /diy/. I have no idea why, the electronics and 3dp threads belong here, /diy/ is for boomers discussing the best way to mow their lawns.

I mean the article literally says at the start that it's fake. That said, this kind of does exist, you can pay ridiculous amounts of money to get a special streaming box that lets you watch brand new, still in theater movies at home. IIRC it's like $40-50k though.

Eli refuses to use any other means of distributing software that isn't maidcards, and embedded data is banned for a good reason since people do use other stuff to post CP here

>>105979451 (OP)
/g/ is not that advanced. I wish it were.
That said the "games" /v/ made would be the equivalent of making a /g/ arcade cabinet with a bunch of raspberry pis, arduinos and vibecoded software.

>>105980062
All she ever posted in them was Java code she wrote, and an exception should have been made for her. Especially since she posted them with her trip on.

>>105980177
If other people start using it's a problem, could be also used for malware and it obscures the projects in general
Everything could have gone well if maidposting didn't became so stale in the same things

>>105979451 (OP)
Two people can keep a secret when one of them is dead. So how can 100.000 people keep a secret?

>>105980221
Couldn't Eli's handler just be given janny powers to sweep it up? Maidcard was never widely adopted. It seems like it would be pretty easy to keep anyone other than a maid with a trip on from posting them. It would also be good to have someone around who removes low-effort trolling from the maid threads while they are up.

>>105980346
Is really worth the effort? Maid threads are always the same thing: Eli saying math stuff, sometimes posting a vague project you have to do multiple steps to even get the code, the culture is always the same thing: maid computers and maid cards, plus Eli is always hostile with the jannies
Way before maidposting started to be banned I warned that things had to change, now there's probably some janny personally annoyed with them
Maidposting should have been people making maid themed software and developing new culture, not constantly forcing the same meme over and over

>>105979451 (OP)
We're supposed to make OSes here.

>>105980031
Why would anyone watch that slop?
There is a Bloomburg Terminal that you can buy, for around the same price that gives you the real/live news for frontrunning stocks, arbitrage, and whatnot.
It’s not a secret though.

OP has never heard of sleepsort

/g/ is a solo projects board
You can come here to show your work
plenty of anons have done it and do it all the time

>>105979451 (OP)
And anons on /d/ have made their own (obscene) games too. What is it about /g/ that's so shit?

>>105981301
Rampant consumerism and brand wars, tinkering is seen as "tranny"
I remember /g/ having a meme project every week 3-5 years ago, some were completely useless but they were at least fun
Now the board is only to jerk off to left vs right, my group vs your group, there's not even meme distros being pushed anymore as everything is "tranny" or "jew"
/g/ became a caricature of itself, these things used to be for fun and to bother people, but newfags firmly believe on brand wars. From people pretending to be retarded they attracted retards to the board
These days I even saw a muslim preaching against anime pictures

>>105981301

The moderation.

Even if the article wasn't supposed to be fake
She was probably just watching Babylon 5 (the series had plenty of mock newscast / mockumentary scenes) and played him along kek
