@thordis I'm Gen X and I'm in this poll. I find that confusing, being so used to being overlooked.

@thordis voted Gen X, but I'm a Xennial (1980)

@szczurtorebkowy Yeah, I'm right on the cusp too, born in 1981.
@thordis my brother was born in 1980, Gen X. I was born in 1981, Millennial.

@thordis Please define what each category means. I have no idea where I'm supposed to fit.

@thordis for those that don't know what the generation cut dates are I found this:
Generation Birth Year
Generation Alpha 2013–2025
Generation Z 1997–2012
Millennials (Gen Y) 1981–1996
Generation X 1965–1980
Baby Boomers 1946–1964
Silent Generation 1928–1945
Greatest Generation 1901–1927However pooling Boomers and Alphas as in the questionnaire doesn't make much sense though.

@david_kehm @thordis I still don’t understand why. I know we are numerically a smaller group but not by so much that we should be forgotten.
@PermaSolarPotter @david_kehm @thordis
Because we don't constantly begin discussions with "as a gen X..." like millennials do. -

@thordis I think 'Xennial' is the more official term now, but I always think of myself as the "Star Wars Generation" from the following article:

@thordis i misclicked 🥺 im Gen Z but accidentally picked Gen X
barely missed being a Millenial by 3 years or so -
@thordis GenX gets on my nervesssss! Everybody is blaming boomers for everything, but it’s GenX that are the real menaces (I can’t prove it yet)
-
@thordis i land in that weird trough in between gen x and millenial so im in a different category depending on whos asking. whats your cutoff year for millenials?
-
@david_kehm @thordis I still don’t understand why. I know we are numerically a smaller group but not by so much that we should be forgotten.
@PermaSolarPotter @david_kehm @thordis I and the people I know don't accept gen X as an identity. There was a rationale for commenting on the baby boomer generation as a distinct thing, but gen X and later are arbitrary, and regardless using it as an identity instead of discussion of the environment the group experienced is nonsense.
The manufactured history of labeling generations seems to be taking hold now and people are identifying themselves and others with their generation. -
As a millennial I always got the impression that the Boomer generation (and I only speak generally, obviously) was planning on dragging every single thing they can into the grave when they finally go. The economy, the environment, our democracies etc.
Deprivation and salted earth is the punishment for my generation not being right-wing enough or buying into the neoliberal "grand plan".
@contrasocial @ReggieHere @hajni @thordis I wonder if Gen X is ignored because, coming after boomers, thy didn’t get the benefits and don’t get the blame, but being immediately after they had it good enough that they don’t complain about everything getting dragged away by the boomers, but millennials got so much less they could see sooner how bad it was headed for

Man I felt that for real for real.

@marjolica @thordis there's no one definitive definition. I've also seen
1946-1964 - baby boomers
1965-1984 - gen x
1985-2005 - millennialsEtc... as that way each generation is exactly 20 years.
The origin stories podcast had an episode last week called "boomers" which talks about the various ways the generations can be defined.

@thordis Not sure about your server but the fediverse as a whole has leaned Gen X the last few years. Perhaps you'll start changing that.

@mos_8502 and, itch.io assets are a bargain compared to trying to make an LLM produce pixel art that's worth a shit. (Challenge level: Literally impossible. I was curious...they're really bad at pixel art, especially very low resolution pixel art.)

Clarke & Lake is next.
In the direction of travel, the doors open on the right at Clarke & Lake.

I paid for the right to use them, modify them (which is important because I have to modify them to make them work on C64!), sell them as an integral part of as many games as I want to make, etc.
I'm not saying you can't use AI if you want. What am I, a cop? But I chose not to use it for art in Rowan.

I didn't use AI to generate the assets in Rowan. I paid for them, fair and square. Itch dot io is full of them. You can have your pick.
