great stuff!
very sharp, very honest and I like it and cannot wait for next one.
h.

interface and graphics were good despite a couple glitches and bugs. the different menus was cute idea, the randomized order of articles not so much. some of the articles were interesting. mag needed more tracks imho (or description on how to switch them, i couldnt figure it out). i could have lived without suffering through the hemorrhage of blindsided ultranationalist political propaganda though. it is funny in a way (but also extremely sad and worrysome to witness) to consider how someone can be so convict and passionate about such a missguided critical thinking effort to invest so much of their time and effort into making this and honestly believe this is the way. while reading multiple of the articles i often wondered if it isn't all just a parody of some sort made in bad taste but i fear it is actually honest. it's quite hypocritical to have it available in english considering the contents of the texts written and the target audience clearly being russian spectrum sceners, but as a non russian speaker i appreciate the translation being available.

Useless name, every character in the title is illegal to MS-DOS/Windows, so what are we supposed to call this prod? Although I'm sure the content is fine ;)

what psenough said

I do not appreciate this drivel being shat out in any language. Putinists fuck off and leave the demoscene.

> Putinists fuck off and leave the demoscene.

Perhaps you have a complete discrimination list stating who should 'fuck off and leave demoscene' and who is allowed to stay by the mercy of demoscene god?

I know at least one of the writers has one.

(I don't want to bring any more stress to those allegedly "Nazi-minded" individuals by naming them here, but at least one of them seems to be labelled as "Nazi-minded" simply because they are LGBTQ+)

IMO this attitude is wildly inappropriate, regardless of which group of sceners you are referring to. At least I'm here for demos and friendship, and couldn't give less shits whether or not you're propaganda-infused russian or lgbtq+. Why not take that kind of hate to twitter where it belongs?


Why is this comment reference missing? Admin-deleted because of dox? Or salt from another prod page? Godwin's law is strong in this thread. Grow up.

also forgot thumb

NR4, it's a quote from the mag. If you're "here for demos and friendship", you should care that people are using the demoscene as a vessel for that.

Fuck, and I can't stress this enough, off

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

I thumbed the prod down already because of that.

I called out your attitude as well, because it was mean and unneccessary. Compare the demoscene ethics project on this exact topic btw.



This goes for both sides and is a weak form of the tolerance paradox, but can we all be civil?

I hereby civilly express my disapproval:

People over the age of 60 should not be allowed to hold power in the country. Former and active military, police, special services and the like should not be allowed to take power in peacetime under any circumstances. This is an axiom.

Fuck off you fucking disgusting piece of absolute fucking shit.

btw. I read most of the articles actually, and it's interesting to see how distorted / different the views about the "West" and "Western culture" can be.
One can feel the bitterness and inferiority complexes.

.

sorry, but how did you managed to came with such a conclusion if there is absolutely no mention of the person's current life in the mag? the fact they got named wrong in the review doesn't automatically imply that.
the whole "SE#3 bashing" article looks like being completely taken out of context (by the way, the online content is available on zxpress, including the articles reviewed), and some of content is indeed far from being constructive - but yet again, digging up the 2 decades old trash is not a fair strategy - the whole zx subdivision compatbvility issue is still going on, albeit being greatly smoothed out by things like DivIDE or FPGA clones =)

oh, and about of the mag itslef - it could be always nice to see more native speccy press, if it would not filled with nationalistic rant and personal insults. still there is some interesting thoughts and reviews (if you skip the "blue" part), and the whole "randomizied mag" idea is pretty fresh (yet annoying), so i'll resist from the thumbdown. for now

Well, this is clearly a non-politically-neutral prod. As many others. This is OK. What should be politically neutral, is the demoscene itself. At least capable of facing the fact, that there can be different opinions on anything and there's no mandatory political view...
