How about a stream today? I've decided to go back to Twitch, and I'm going to try out Bloodthief. Today at 5pm GMT, in about four hours from now.

I have it on good authority that both the interviewer and the interviewee here are portrayed by imposters. And the only reason the authorities look the other way, the interviewer has stolen the interviewee's identity, and the other way round. Let this be a lesson, kids. Don't impost. Stay in school.

Did I give my video a clickbaity title for the sake of promoting clickage? Absolutely. Am I ashamed? Not nearly as much as I ought to be.

Every so often, someone drops a hint that they've read my YT video descriptions. Most folks make videos to make videos or to make money. I make them chiefly for what's written beneath. If you're a subscriber, are you among those who read them? You'll know why I ask soon enough.

With the current Steam sale, the game I worked on is practically free. But hey, if you don't have it and it seems like something you'd like, be one of the first three to hit me up in the DMs while it's still on sale and I'll gift it to you.

I'm starting a new job soon and this will mean some changes on my channel. I don't know what my output will be like going forward. I go into more detail in the video, but the upshot is I'm not going away for good, but it might be a while. Thank you everyone!

Tomorrow at 6pm GMT I'm going to see if the new fangled Faster FTL drive in Elite Dangerous is all it's cracked up to be. Also I'm trying out streaming on YouTube rather than Twitch this time, and we'll see how that goes.

What's your ultimate technology fantasy? Mine is an implant that can mute all sound coming from my ears (including tinnitus) so I can have some guaranteed peace and quiet + restful sleep. Also with an option to play sound from any digital source like music so I don't go mad from the pure silence.

I've open sourced another palette tool. This one takes any photo/image (or batch of images), a palette and outputs an indexed PNG equivalent. Optionally, Floyd–Steinberg dithering can be applied. HTH!

I made productivity software instead of working, and then I made a video about it instead of working. I've made the a dynamic pomodoro timer, because I wanted it to exist and now I can use it and start working again! Details in the video

's Thunder Helix. That's also the day it releases into Early Access. It's a retro-style low-poly 3D helicopter sim. If you remember Gunship 2000 this should be familiar. Looking forward to trying it!

Something a little different here. I made a pomodoro timer with music and ambience from Stellaris. I often work with Stellaris music on so I made this, and I thought if anyone else might get benefit from it then awesome
