Thought I saw a thumbnail for a promising horror movie on Paramount Plus, turns out it was just the skeletons of a family that died of old age waiting for the TV app's user interface to scroll to the next movie in the list. *Phew*

Shooter game where before every boss fight you have to build some kind of physics contraption in a garage to defeat them. Like a van with a catapult on it, or with a tyres set up to launch two by fours or something. Like those bits in the A-Team, MacGuyver.

Just finished watching Alien Earth. Some lad that Eddie the eh baw, eh?

Aw man, RIP to Tomas Lindberg. Slaughter of the Soul is one of _the_ classic metal albums of the 90's. Not to mention all of his other contributions to related genres. Will definitely be missed

The urge to play Vengaboys for comedy value when you have control over the presentation screen at an internal work conference. No, we must not let the intrusive thoughts win

One of those ones where you needed to see the video for it to be funny, but one of my favourites from Splinter Cell Blacklist was the bug where if you hand to hand attacked a dog, they'd end the animation slightly embedded in the ground, so when they ragdolled they'd launch right into the air

I wonder how many people on BlueSky tonight have a link to Yub Nub just sitting in their clipboard, just waiting.

Can't even build death star anymore, because of ewok

Instead of like, going to a doctor and stuff, you'll be able to like, put your organs on the Blockchain and stuff... And that will like make your organs like really healthy because anything that is like on the Blockchain has to be like true and stuff like

Man have you seen the stuff Kim Jong Un has been getting up to lately? Man is he going to get OWNED when the midterm elections roll around and he loses control of the House. Boy will his face be red, let me tell you, whoo. That will sure show him.

Sad to hear about Ozzy Osbourne but it's so great that he got the chance to do what he loved one last time, before he passed.

10 things I learned from integrating TouchingCupcake™ into my SaaS development workflows 💡🎓🧁 youtu.be/D0uUF3mK7Xk?...

This is interesting. Personally in the Dundee games industry specifically, I felt like it didn't matter what your background was. I wonder if that's just a Dundee industry thing, a Scottish industry thing, or I was just lucky? www.bbc.com/news/article...

I wonder how long it will be until flat pack furniture companies just start giving you AI hallucinated garbage as assembly instructions. Some vaguely plausible instructions when you glance at them but when you come to start assembling it there are screw holes and such that just don't exist

Lmao

Canada driving pro tip: Did you know that these lines on the road here are called "NPC lines". The main character of the universe is allowed to drive over them to make their exit, only NPC's have to obey them. I have been lucky to see the main character of the universe many times on the 401.

Ahh State of Emergency. My first games industry job was QA tester on the Xbox version.

I would have played the hell out of a Titanfall extraction shooter too. Shame.

So I guess this means Canada won't be implementing THREE WORD SLOGAN now? Fuck

Happy Easter to all, including the radical left lunatics who break into my organics bin when I put it out over night and use their opposable thumbs to rip open the bag and throw all the left over pizza everywhere and mess up my yard.

Call of Duty Warzone - Stop resetting my graphics settings to default every time I boot the game challenge - (Impossible apparently)

When these tech bro cretins find out that America's nuclear weapons infrastructure runs on computers that still use floppy disks, we are absolutely fucked.

Bug report created. Really making use of those skills I picked up working in QA at the beginning of my career right up in here

I hate this trend of "error messages are scary for non technical users so fuck you technical users, all you're getting is an error message that says 'thing no work'" Great, that's really fucking useful, I can totally use that to troubleshoot, great job. Fantastic

For fucks sake. Trying to turn off my computer so I can move it to my new house and of course it has to take 50 fucking minutes to update, on a gaming PC with an extremely fast SSD no less. That's OK, I have nothing better to do than fucking sit here staring at a progress bar

Missed opportunity to have called this "shitter" if you ask me

Big corporation guy - (he is wearing a suit): "Drat! They got us, they all stopped buying things for one day and then bought them the day after. Truly we must bow to their demands, or they might do something else that has zero impact on our quarterly revenue!"

My business selling five foot bike wheels for penny farthings is closing down in Canada because of woke

Some tips for people who think "Canada joining the US" won't take the form of Canada getting absolutely bombed to shit by the US (likely with deliberate targeting of civilians as in Ukraine): 1. Crayon no go in nose. Crayon draw picture. Draw me a nice picture and I'll put it up on the fridge!

In this day and age it is more important than ever to pay for journalism, so we can pay some guy to stand watching a Nazi rally, stroking his chin and saying "hmmmmmm, maybe...."

"In our current day and age, paying for journalism is more important than ever" Important for what, justifying this shit? What important purpose is it serving

lmao, for those who weren't around at the time this is 100% accurate

If I were Devin Townsend, I'd totally give this demo track a proper release. In the current political climate, I bet it'd do well youtu.be/_-2x-AZ7bpQ?...

Forgot to mention it on here, but a week or so ago I was playing a game called "Still Wakes the Deep". Set on an oil rig in Scotland in the 1970's. Highly recommend. Voice acting, dialogue, etc is all very accurate, which really helped keep me immersed in the setting

Erm, something is also happening on the outside of the Earth Mr. Scientist, I don't know if you have noticed. www.independent.co.uk/space/earth-...

Medal system prototype coming along. (Yeah I know melee is busted, but it makes it easier to test medals, so that's tomorrow's problem :D)

Pensioner Arena Shooter called Zimmer Aim.

Current mood:

game.new finally works without needing an account! So happy!

Today: "Is it really a Nazi salute?" Tomorrow: "Is it really a concentration camp?" Some people need to wake the fuck up

Watching the finale of The Silo. Am I going blind, or is this Greg Hemphill of Still Game and Chewin the Fat fame? (Scottish thing if those mean nothing to you)

Watching this MAGA civil war with popcorn and much amusement. I don't know how the fuck these people expect to get rid of the Dept of education and somehow end up with _more_ Americans educated in computer science to degree level. Good luck with that.

Vaas at top of pit At Tanagra

So disappointed, put my entire life savings into the crypto coin of internet viral video sensation "Dad, I think I shit my pants again", and got rug pulled. You know the video where the guy waddles downstairs caked in his own shit? How could anyone have foreseen this would be a bad investment?

You there - what day is it? Why sir, it's stylish but illegal ikea monkey day Stylish but illegal ikea monkey day! Then I haven't missed it!!

sales wise this isn't going that well by the way. which is what i expected so you know, it's ok. but if you have a thing you could do to draw any attention to it i would appreciate it

Some hobby project fun. Found myself with a lot of motivation recently, now that the weather is less conducive to being outdoors.

Tbh as an outsider I'm kind of surprised that health insurance CEO thing didn't happen 20 years ago. In a country like the US where shootings have happened for far more frivolous reasons than say, a terminal cancer patient denied insurance, or who lost a kid or spouse under similar circumstances.

Damn it should be illegal to be this cute. He knows what he's doing
