I didn't have "that's the end of buying games from EA" on any bingo card...but its 2025 and here we are. Steam can allow you to hide an entire publisher's list of games, just saying.

playing around with light, and building mob behavior. I think the style is slowly coming together... #Godot #indiedev #2D

one thing I do enjoy is the ease of use for Godot's 2D animation system. Got the 'rifle' animations cooking. #Godot #indiedev

been in a bit of a funk working on a new project in Godot. I was hoping "top down, Resident Evil-like" would keep me motivated, we'll see. I still find auto-tiling and tileset work to be the most draining part of the whole process. #Godot #gamedev #2d

Google has long been a key source of traffic for news and all manner of sites across the web. This week @mattdpearce.com joins @parismarx.com to discuss how Google’s pursuit of AI is causing fewer people to click through, causing traffic to plummet. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/288_...

Is it possible to imagine a better future where we use less computation? The effects of AI hype almost demand it. This week @danmcquillan.bsky.social joins @parismarx.com to lay out the concept of decomputing as a different way of assessing technology. Full ep: techwontsave.us/episode/286_...

What impact is AI having on jobs in the tech industry? I've been collecting stories from tech workers—from engineers at giants like Google to content mods at TikTok to coders at small startups—to find out. Here, in their words, is how AI is transforming, degrading, and yes, replacing their jobs.

Latest build of Earthsiege 2 mod tools available, the big upgrade is extracting the model files. github.com/Subject9x/es... #earthsiege #Dynamix #retrogames

Grappling with reverse engineering Earthsiege 2’s model format. Not the first to take a shot, hopefully not the last. Continuing my efforts from 2024 to reverse engineer this fantastic old mech game. #retrogames #mecha #dynamix

ported the super handy features of the LANDWAR app to an even more convenient website. subject9x.itch.io/landwar/devl... #wargaming

y'know, if someone asked me what I'd give for EA to start open sourcing older games like Command and Conquer.... <gestures to state of world> not like this....

Needless to say, ignoring the courts would be the rubber-meets-the-road moment. It would also be an unmasking moment. Can't pretend you aren't trying to seize UnAmerican levels of executive power if you do that.

Trying to keep myself motivated to finish projects before starting new ones. Pushing out LANDWAR Beta 1.4 a bit early for testing. subject9x.itch.io/landwar/devl... #wargaming #miniatures

"beware what lies beyond the fringes of the Lyran Commonwealth" And no, these are not Green Ghosts, I worked this scheme up independently. This is the Dread Guard, Rift Republican Army descendants - hunting pirates, clanners, house lackeys, and the odd Amaris-aficionado. #Battletech

picked up a copy of Tabletop Wargames by Rick Priestly and John Lambshead; looking forward to some good insight on design as I draft some new wargame ideas.
