I have been into the demoscene for the last 25 years and never heard of this website demoscene.info. It looks like the kind of website a domainer will make to "increase" the price of a low value domain name.

If you like it there is also slengpung in the same spirit (https://www.slengpung.com/). The website archives thousands of demoparties photos from 1989 to 2018)

We more or less have the same laws in France (and that's probably the case in other countries in EU)

Or you could have both. I find that gas offers quicker heat which is excellent for certain types of cooking. I find the responsiveness and heat control provided by gas are unmatched, that's why I use it most of the time

When I was a teenager (17) all my friends in my class they could juggle three balls and I was a little jealous I wanted to be able to do like them. I remember buying three juggling balls and during recess I would train , sometime I would even skip class to train ! It took me about three weeks to be able to juggle with 3 balls! I am left handed so maybe it has something to do with that.

The animation on this site are great but they could be better if the balls were numbered (1,2,4)

I don't know in the US but don't worry the demoscene is very much alive in Europe! Lots of big and smaller events all year long. I am personally going to Revision (where about a thousand people gather every Easter) and Evoke almost every year..the rest of the time there's often other demoparty you can watch live online

I am french I read your comment then read again the title to see what was wrong and I noticed my brain automatically added the word "entered" after accidentally. So yes I understand your feeling

I have been following the demoscene for a little more than 20 years now. Wrote only a couple demos. Last one was last year for Revision 2023. I am actually so glad to be European (living in France) because it seems it is almost inexistant outside Europe.

I had the occasion to try it at Revision 2023 (a demoparty). The demo was a missile game (for those interested you can watch it here : https://files.scene.org/view/parties/2023/revision23/game/re... ) It was indeed fun to try but I have played similar games on my Oculus Quest and the experience on Quest (or any other similar headsets ) is much more immersive. Now I just discover the price : 359USD without shipping cost. I must say I find it quite expensive. At this price I rather buy a Quest 2 or wait for the Quest 3 wich will offer full Mixed Reality capability.
