hey dudes

I decieded to make a 4k diskmag centering on demoscene, but not limited to it. I found and tested all tools for it. Sure, it woldn't as cool as Wilby #5 & #6 (shame on me, I can't code such great things, and nearly to code at all), but I want to do it anyway – fuck, I want more diskmags on PC!

I have about 3 kb space for text per issue at all. Pleace, send me your articles about demoscene, coding, your first computer, your favourite site, new album of your favourite group, so, anything, but it would be just nice if article would be about demoscene or at least something “digital”: software, hardware, and so on... Also, pleace try to be laconic: to see your great article in one issue, not in several, you better to limit yourself to about 1 kb. Anyway, as I said, bigger articles are also welcome for publishing in several issues (yeah, I hope to do more than one).

So please! Please! I really need your words!

Here's my article:
Why you shouldn't write a diskmag in 4k
by rc55/ukscene

You'll run out of space before you get a chance to say anything significant.

64k though... :)

You should accept articles only via Twitter, helps to keep them brief.

text compresses well ;)

@rc55 your article accepted, thanks man :)
Yeah, maybe you're right, but hm... Maybe diskmags' articles may be not-so-significant? At least, most of pouet.net BBS topics are not serious at all.

@cce maybe, it's nice idea.

@ps just tool for reading text is tiny :)

please write your articles using only the following chars: <add list of 15 lower case letters of your liking>
;)

@wysiwtf awesome idea for amazing compression. Maybe, someone should make a demo about it?

4k will be very limited on content...
64k would be a nice idea, though.

@Defiance I can't code serious engine for it, I can't write serious articles for it.
And I'm sure that not many people would want to code or write articles for it...

So, I want to make something not so serious as Hugi and Zine, in small size and using foreign tools :D

also you should write all articles yourself, to keep a coherent writing style.
And I guess my new shader minifier could process normal text and save a lot, but it would take quite some analysis by the reader to figure out the word replacements ;)

been thinking of doing a diskmag as a smartphone app. with new article updates every couple of weeks or something. but then i got lazy and didnt bother.

@ps great idea, I think.

So to sum it all up: You can't code, and you can't write articles. So you decide to do a 4k dismag with articles o_O

@Punqtured I can't code cool and I can't write something long, serious, new and interesting, for example, articles about raytracing or short assembler routines for intros.
So I decieded to make a 4k diskmag with short and not very serious articles by me and I HOPE different articles by other people. That's very bad, I know :(

there's been a 4k mag in the mid 90s too

ps: amazing idea, we could talk about a true topic that matter:

wont someone think about the mothers

kaneel: The text "Your mom is a motherf$%&" is missing... ;)

TPOLM international galactic conspiracy is proud to to present to you

a demolink article on your mother

Mothers are important. they give birth to babies. and sometimes they nurture them too. so you should love your mother regardless of what they are. like your mother loves you. tpolm has known this for many years.

If you are a mother on a beer terrace you might get scorned by local drunkards for bringing your baby into that kind of environment. even while drinking a pizza in a corner away from everyone else. at 4pm.

It is also important to notice that all mothers are the best mothers in the world. except for the bad mothers. which there are none. except when they are.
please do not confuse this with vague pulp fiction references by orange.

Mothers are also a good source of conjugated linoleic acids. According to studies that targeted its effects on the belly firmness and fatty acid composition of genetically lean pigs, the supplemental CLA usage had a positive effect on the improvement of belly firmness and may provide a nutritional solution to carcass fat and belly firmness problems.

Further studies have proved that mothers have a rapid response to all sorts of children complaints, including sex deviations, sleep deprivation and different kind of drug related issues.
