This petition now has over 1.9 million signatures & it's still rising. This makes it the 4th biggest ever, after: 1. Revoke Article 50 and remain in the EU - 6,103,056 2. Trigger a 2nd EU Referendum (if win vote less than 60%) - 4,150,262 3. Call a General Election (against Labour) - 3,084,714

Wow how have I not heard of this? I want one!

Go home, you're drunk.

Finally got around to watching Asteroid City. Wes Anderson's stuff is so goddam good. Pretentious? As Fuck, but he gets the best actors (& presumably crew), and - honestly - he's my fave director by a loooong way.

Sometimes I think how it's a straight line (a single dot?) from "how come Americans didn't realise who the bad guys in Starship Troopers were" to the year 2025.

i was right

Dude: If we want to solve this male loneliness crisis women need to realize no man wants-- Me: Have you heard a lot about a female loneliness crisis? Dude: What? No... Me: No, you haven't. Because women are fine. It's men like you who'd rather die alone than take some advice instead of giving it.

In case anyone has interest... we did some of the games for this. All the ones demoed, my studio built them. www.tomshardware.com/video-games/...

Now over 1.5 million signatures...

Keir Starmer says he's offering us "patriotic renewal" to "build our country." But we know the fundamental problem is a tiny few have the wealth and power. Time for us to take it back.

The most accurate recreation of DS9 I've seen.

Putting aside how the UK government usually responds to these petitions by simply saying 'no', seeing this hit a million signatures in like a day kinda shows how much people REALLY do not want this. So yeah, keep signing it. Let's see how high this can go! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

“Let’s call it for what it is: bullshit. The truth is, politicians have talked about little else but immigration for decades and in the most dehumanising ways. Polanski added: “Stop the boats’ is all we hear. Well, today I'm saying ‘stop the bullshit’.” www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

I hate to be posting re: political stuff apologies If you think digital Id cards for the UK are not a good idea feel free to join the many many people who agree... petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73... (for me it's mostly the incompetence of public/private tech which will end up doing the work)

We never got these for Rollerdrome 😢

how can you easily catch bugs like missing textures, bad physics layers, and dangling narrative trees? if you can fix a problem by changing assets at edit time, you can probably make an asset test for it, and stop the problem ever coming back. but how do you implement an asset test in #unreal? 🧵

"Solving the Autism problem" You mean stacking the dish washer the CORRECT way?

is the rapture the same day on every planet

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like "A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act." fuck yeah

Why are the American president's claims about autism the first item on British news bulletins? He's not our president, the advice doesn't apply here and he's not presented any evidence to support his assertions. So why spread these claims? What make this the biggest story in the UK?

A sadness of ketchup

Lib Dems: We have 12x Reform's MPs, can we have the same coverage? BBC: But Reform has 2x your poll rating. If there were an election tomorrow, they'd be running the country. Lib Dems: So you're putting their people and policies under scrutiny, right? BBC: Lib Dems: Right?

Because I have ADHD I usually skip bits of videos that I can predict, otherwise I lose interest. Anyway, your honour, that is why I have several body parts of a ghostly Japanese girl infront of my TV.

I am once again asking people to look at Ploog's Gandalf hand as a masterclass in gestural hand drawing.

Don't marry your job. You will have many more. Be loyal to people and skills, not companies and titles. You can always change jobs - because you will anyway.

Things were better when computer was in room. Now everywhere is computer. This is bad. Computer should never have escaped room.

ICYMI - Unity 6 can run automated tests in the Player live on console hardware (and presumably mobile devices etc.) This is AWESOME. Think you don't need tests? Check out @andrewfray.dev's excellent video to see why you're wrong www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1kD...

10/10, no notes

100% this! I use Ink (www.inklestudios.com/ink/) for all story / game structure prototyping. I tried a few narrative tools (inc. twine), but for me ink's approach is just way nicer - the "Inky" editor has real time preview of the story which is just immensely powerful for iteration & re-drafts.

Random thought: is human-centric cuteness a Darwinian selection pressure in the Anthropocene? e.g. I generally remove spiders I find in my house (apart from in the conservatory roof, where we have a truce). However, jumping spiders always get a pass because they're so goddam cute. (c.f. pandas)

Saw this on Discord. Too good not to share!
