Lol, the kids are alright

Idaho's there for yoooou, (When the rain starts to fall) Idaho's there for yoooou, (And he's been here before) Idaho's there for yooou, (Cause he's cloned in Dune 2)

So no one told you Dune was gonna be this way. Your house broke, you're lost, your dad is MIA. And now you're stuck with some old Fremen gear, When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.

Do I know any CMake gurus here?

Apparently it's full blown summer in California now, so I decided that it is Time for baddies on electric sports bikes. And fishtailed on the first traffic light. I recovered, but with a bit of wobble on the exit, and I suspect it might have looked uncool. Which is almost worse than eating gravel.

1. What does the percentage of the primary vote you get have to do with whether it's a "solid blue district?" Primary voters will always be Dems. That's what a primary is. 2. She lost 29.5% to 26% in a 16 person race. Was the winner also "out of touch with Democratic voters" for only getting 29.5%?

💞The most wholesome awards in game dev are back #gamedevheroes. If you want a nomination drop me a reply or a DM with which category and a little something for me to go off, in terms of why. Time to celebrate each other🥳 gamedevheroes.co?doing_wp_cro...

We're so back!

Anyone in LA interested in this mini arcade machine with the additional stand? It has a ton of emulators on it and I can list them out tomorrow but I'm looking for around 500-600 since it originally cost a grand

So much this. Where have I gotten to use (inhales) algebra, linear algebra, geometric algebra, trig and calculus, real and complex analysis, statistics and probability, number theory, set theory, group theory, topology, Euclidean, analytical, and differential geometry? Games.

"DLSS5 fuses controllability of everything about the game with [dogshit]," Huang continued. "Developers can still fine-tune the generative [dogshit]" to make it match their style, as DLSS 5 adds [dogshit] capability to the existing geometry of the game." www.tomshardware.com/pc-component...

It's legitimately driving me insane to see people reporting using this language. You can't "deport" US citizens because by definition they have a right to reside in the US. If you kick a citizen out of their country there's a different word for that; it's literally just called "exile"

And while we're on the subject, the fall damage check goes *before* the jump logic. Otherwise, players can just cancel the fall damage with frame-perfect jumps. Or even not-so-frame-perfect if you have a bit of ledge forgiveness built in. Which you probably should. Jumping is surprisingly involved.

WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK

Love seeing lawyers taking a peep at the contract. Thanks for the write up @nicolecarpenter.bsky.social ! ❤️

"Modern invention." So are flushing toilets. The anti-intellectualism from these sycophants is disgusting. We know you don't wash your ass, Marc, but you don't have to announce it. This sort of behavior should only ever be met with ridicule, and exclusion from polite society.

If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.

　Et tu, Brute?

"squished up real good like an accordion" is going to be squatting in my brain for years

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Just as I did last year, in honor of @trreadathon.bsky.social, I'm running an Itch sale on all my queer magical girl work so far! Please do check it out! You can get so much gayness and action! #TransRightsReadathon itch.io/s/182018/mag...

Not sure if this actually meant to be pyromancy or pyrokinesis, but I'm in favor either way. Maybe we can just have both? That would be a nearly universal solution to so many problems.

Hey all! As of today I'm no longer at WB and looking for a new role in the games industry. My goal is, and always has been, to make cool games with cool people. If you're looking for a Narrative Director or Lead who thrives on collaboration and is passionate about games story, please reach out!

I don't miss my old gasoline cars a tiniest bit. Electrics are better in absolutely every way. But sometimes, I miss my old Ninja. Sure, electric bike I ride now is lighter, has more torque, and doesn't have nearly as many problems. But when my Ninja didn't start, I always knew I can fix it.

Logistically, this kind of deal would make a lot of sense, and would allow both Ukraine and NATO to better defend themselves against missile threats. But what is this timeline, seriously?

🚨 8 DAYS! 🚨 Eight days left to make this happen. Every shift, every call, every reminder to a friend to vote matters. Knock doors, call our neighbors, or join our volunteer Discord!

Rationally, I know Steam Deck is just a Linux computer, and there is no reason why I can't just make a Linux build on my laptop, copy the files to the Deck and run the game. But my brain still goes, "What's the catch?" every time this works. There might be some residual trauma from console dev.

Anyone in LA interested in any of these board games? I'm selling them

Speaking of which, is anyone in the LA area interested in a Base PS4 with two controllers? No damage, just dusty, 150 bucks!

I'm tired of getting water from concentrate. Everyone knows that organic water has pulp.

watching the fucking brain decay amongst previously superlative programmers, i'm gonna be saying "AI krokodil" a lot

I've mentioned that I stand by all queer people, and that includes the large gay men who talk about being large gay men over and over again but y'know. Bears repeating.

kitsune tails is 33% off on steam and itch! kitsunegames.com/kitsunetails an award winning gay fox girl platformer sitting at overwhelmingly positive with 800 reviews on steam, in this economy? it's more likely than you think!

yeah so it sure sounds like the u.s. government is disappearing people including us citizens from o’hare

I just left a concert fundraising for the National Immigrant Justice Center to head to Broadview. Here’s why:

Dammit people, add alt text to your images! So many times I see awesome art or cool comics, but can't repost it, because it's not accessible.

Oh my god Lmao youraislopbores.me

I'm not heading to GDC-proper, but I'm going to be in the area, so if anyone in the industry is interested in meeting up, let me know. And use it as an opportunity to ask me about the game we're working on!

Timing on StS2 couldn't be better. Everyone's going to be talking about it at GDC, and we can be rolling up to publishers going, "Yeah, we're pitching a deck-builder. Here's a playable." If we get a publisher, somebody remind me to send a beer basket to Mega Crit.

[inside an NoA conference room]: "Sarah you can't out and ask if the whole polycule is playing this freak ass game. Rephrase"

this is what it feels like to post on bluesky

If you're in the game industry and use LinkedIn, please do me a favor and share my post about Sentona Games screwing me out of money I'm owed. Thank you

"Please give us private accounts" vs "you know what. Maybe I don't need a vibe coded private account. Maybe I don't think I should trust the vibe coded private account to actually be private."

I went to put a like on this post, and the page wasn't loading. Had to come back to do that later. 😹 I really need to migrate my account to a different PDS. It's not safe with these people.

If you can provide $3k checks for the entire middle class of America by taxing 900 people a little more, not only should you do it, but you should take it as a signal that your monetary system is broken

they're such little punks about it too, like everything else

One of the few benefits of having poor memory for names is that if you're re-introducing yourself to me after transition, there's no need to try and remind me of what your name used to be. I don't remember the name anyways.

Finally, localization I've been waiting for.
