Is Scratch (and the mods) poorly optimized, has bad rendering, or anything? Because if so, something kind of explains why it would show up under the list of apps using significant energy.


I alternatively use a MacBook Pro (with the M3 Pro chip in it) to create games using TurboWarp and Gandi IDE. Both do use significant energy while Gandi IDE feels much slower than TurboWarp.
This is something that I'm kind of curious about because I do occasionally think about lower-end PCs running games extremely slowly or PC fans running fast and PCs heating up from playing a game. It does also depend on how big games are made with Scratch, but I am more curious about how Scratch was generally built.

MacBooks now normally drains the battery extremely slowly, but if I use Gandi IDE or TurboWarp building games, the batter drain speed slightly increases.

That's cute, but do you feel the need to go out of your way to commit this much towards AI?

Another issue is that Copilot 365 hallucinates more than the main Copilot, so it's not that reliable.

I'm still patiently waiting this obsession to stop.

I just recently discovered MistWarp, which is a fork of TurboWarp that really has very good amount of additional options and customization.

UI changes is something I always wanted because I grew tired of Scratch's vanilla UI designs.

Also yeah, new scene.

Opening Microsoft Word now has this new...banner...

Really shows how they love AI this much; they still believe it's a "foundational" technology and it positively impacts the world.

I need @Danyo_ to send an assassin to teach them a lesson or something.

The Scratch Team has just recently updated their Terms of Service yesterday, letting you know they now have full permission to use your content to train AI models.

I really hope this person is aware of what Nintendo will do to anyone who makes fan projects like this.

There's a big reason why I never included any Nintendo-related references or even sounds in any of my games.

ok i FINALLY finished dropsane teto

i think i still got it

Pretty strange that some portions of the game have no voice acting to some extent.

I'm 90% sure other people skip a lot of dialogues because of how unfathomably HUGE this game is.

This is a positive change to our society. Real human-made works should present as it always was.

Watermarks is something I always do and encourage. Even if I post some AI images here before, I do that very rarely.
