I'll do #marchofrobots this year but I'm probably only going to do one new detailed piece for the month and document the process

Any of y'all ever recalled past life memories?

Any of y'all ever recalled past life memories?

Dairy Queen seriously sent out a sheet of coupons this month with shit like "$1 off a Blizzard if you buy another Blizzard at full price" No wonder the store near me is always empty.

A vain man, obsessed with gold Cursed by an evil god to believe everything he touches turns to gold But it actually turns to shit

Project Mongoose mission patch

old work: Mongoose and Zo-9 hangar scenes

oh, so that's where BattleTech stole the Thrush and Sholagar from how did that not end up in the lawsuit?

they're flat-out not interested in supporting Linux. huge L from the developer.

Here's an unexpected one: Soapstone has double the specific stiffness of titanium alloy. You could theoretically carve a working airplane out of rock.

ahhh, haven't done that in a while

I look around and the only "wicked ideology" I see is the one that's trying to drag us kicking and screaming back to the Dark Ages: MAGA.

I liked Windows 8.

I missed Pokemon entirely because of the delayed North America release. If it had come out at the same time as the JP version I would have been young enough to still think the idea was cool, but by 98 I was "too mature" for a cute sprite-based game 🤣🙄

my sleep pattern is so borked right now I'm sleeping like 3 hours at a time at random points in the day

Based on $38.5B revenue and 91k employees, at 30% labor cost and 25% pay overhead, the average Mondelez worker should be making $101,325 annually. The median worker in reality is probably getting $17/hr with no benefits.

old sprite sheet for lasers and stuff 2014-ish

... Go fuck yourself Kansas.

Ngl still bitter about that rugpull ending

Ernst Mach discovered the Mach number in 1877, but it wasn't named after him until 1929, 13 years after he died. So WTF was it called for the preceding 52 years?

Games need to unironically embrace MIDI again for music. Modern hi-def soundfonts sound amazing and 90s games with MIDI music systems that react to ingame events are so immersive. (Ofc we can't have anything nice in this timeline so studios will just blow a bunch of compute on doing it through AI)

bwehehehe

"You can consent now or I can spike your drink and wait." Fucking tech companies. The people said "no!"

Another upside to a common European Defense Force: the bassline of "27 Nation Army" would be godlike

Yaaaas, I got it to run in Lutris with nGlide! Now to figure out if I can hack it to play in ultrawide....

Inventing a new social network where you can only post a single character at a time. Gotta win the race to the bottom in the war against nuance.

Tag yourself #citrus

Aaand I get to try the demo for all of 5 minutes before Unreal Engine 5 shits the bed and locks the whole system. Stop using this garbage, devs!

About damn time there was a new WW2 sim that doesn't pay taxes to Moscow.

the first image should really be completely washed out, it's a ship from BattleTech and their spacecraft engines are so comically impossibly efficient the exhaust plume temperature would be like 300 million K not even a scifi camera could handle that dynamic range

You can really see a man's fear in thermograph.

ah jeez, we had the air conditioner on the other day and now it's snowing

you know, I wouldn't mind having one of the adult-sized robots as a sparring partner to whip my ass back into shape I'd need to get one of those floppy wushu jiàn so I didn't accidentally smash the several-thousand-dollar robot with my practical one though lol

After extensive study of the Gallo-Roman dodecahedrons, I have concluded their purpose was a massive prank on future historians.

IF YOU SEE THIS POST CRAB

I need somewhere I can go to scream.

bottoms up

I kinda feel like a lot of people unfairly disliked Death Magnetic when it came out. At least half the songs on it are total bangers and the worst is like.... Judas Kiss? Coming off the shitshow that was St Anger and the Napster lawsuits, it really felt like "oh hey Metallica is back" for a bit.

Therapist: the Laminar Flow Cessna isn't real, it can't harm you... *distant sound of efficiency intensifies*

Engineering journals are the absolute worst about paywalling science, I swear. Bastards, all of them.

argh I really want to know more about that 3-surface F/A-18 mockup 😕

Prowler with LERX for high alpha maneuvers lmfao

Cave of the Winds NASAがpdf無料公開しているラングレー実大風洞本 ちょこちょこ面白い写真が載ってます www.nasa.gov/wp-content/u...

Game I most want to see a remaster of: Starsiege A polished Mechwarrior clone meets the best of 40K, with bonus Mark Hamill. Sadly the IP is owned by Activision & the 1999 release only sold 36k units despite B+ reviews. So unlikely. There's a free version but it strips out the excellent music.

Folks I promise this is actually an art account 🤞

I've heard it was being served, but now I guess it's a commercial product?
