⌛️

it’s almost here!!!

we’ve been seeing this logo on our apple tv app for weeks, and the entire time, we thought it was for something called “brad pitt: the movie”

Last but not least is @jakecard.bsky.social's pick: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 🖌️ "My favorite video game story ever, amazing unique combat system, gorgeous art direction... any one of these aspects would make it noteworthy, but combined, it makes for one of my favorite games of all time."

uh... does anyone know the extension for the Spire's IT department

ok which labubus are these

i love games with a lot of build diversity, but i hate coming up with the builds myself. i just want to follow a bunch of cool build guides and feel OP. is this a weird preference, or is this how most people are with these types of games?

so are we just gonna run out of MAC address space once we have nanobot swarms? why is no one freaking out about this?

tech industry really isn’t what it used to be

which rapper do you think is most likely to have contributions in the linux kernel (besides doechii obviously)

fuckin cracks me up when you're overpowered for a level in a video game and the boss is dramatically like "you... fought... well..." after you one-shot his ass lmao

iphone apps gotta stop hijacking the screenshot button, no one wants to do your fuckin “native share” that takes 5 taps and shows multiple ads

i know time is our most precious resource, but also how do i fast forward the next two weeks until monster hunter wilds is out

spending the holidays with two of my oldest friends

i genuinely cannot remember hanukkah starting this late in the year in my entire life. probably climate change related

From Sept through Nov, levels of the virus in wastewater, one of the most reliable metrics now that cases are no longer tracked, were unusually low. At various points over that span, hospitalizations & deaths also neared all-time lows. That’s not to say we are in for a COVID-less Christmas.

#Covid #Covid19 #RSV #Flu #Vaccine #RespiratorySyncytialVirus #Christmas #Xmas archive.is/MzO8f Since the pandemic began, the week between Christmas and New Year’s has coincided with the dreaded “winter wave." But something weird is happening this year. Abridged (shortened) article thread ⬇️ 5 min

@jakecard.bsky.social's pick: Monster Hunter: World 🦖 @monsterhunter.capcomusa.com "Picked it back up for the 1st time since 2018. Most rewarding combat ever, and the equipment upgrade loop gets in my brain wrinkles perfectly. Can't wait to hit some Perfect Rushes with my Sword & Shield in Wilds!"

We heard you were all waiting for a certain gaming award ceremony today, so we've got you covered... 🏆 THE SECOND ANNUAL CRITTIES ARE HERE ✨ Let's take a look at the favorite games our team played this year--which may or may not have actually come out this year! 😁

the best app for transferring files from your iphone to your pc is discord

to all my sports friends: we’re going to the celtics game!! ok you can stop reading this post now to everyone else: ok it’s safe we’re going to see wicked lol

the fun part about writing C is that you can do a little math error and accidentally allocate a few more bytes than you mean to

my great regret about becoming a programmer: i find it impossible to enjoy city-building games anymore :( i used to be so enchanted by the magic of all the little people running around in there, but now that i have a rough idea of how it all works, i just don’t have any fun playing them. very sad :(

my favorite autobattler? i would have to say the yahoo fantasy football app

All the Bluesky advice threads are like when someone at a restaurant explains how “we do it a little differently here” and it’s just tapas

saw this AS we were saying “oof” to a task in the programmer sprint planning

*autumnal whale noises* 🐋🍂 A new issue of the Neowsletter just dropped, featuring: 💡 Slay the Spire 2 quality of life & UI changes! 😈 Another enemy teaser! 🧩 A new StS Connections puzzle! 🎃 Halloween community recap! Read all about it in the link threaded below! 🔽

I'm tempted to make more short video overviews of Godot Addons. What are some #Godot addons you can't live without?

you: a real programmer would never use a git gui, there's nothing you can do in a gui that you can't do better on the command line me, a fake programmer:

doesn’t matter how many times i do it, using the git reflog to recover a lost commit will always make me feel like a cool necromancer

starting a major content rework project today! architecture and refactoring will probably always be the type of work i love the most, but i’ve been doing it pretty much exclusively for the last few months, so it feels great to do something so different

why do boy cows have horns but boy horses don’t, has anyone looked into this

i've been working on a big STS2 refactor around the way we transition between rooms, and i finally got it merged today! there's really nothing else like that feeling of taking a tangled-up part of a system, digging deep, and winding up with something clean and easy to work with.

really excited to see this place blowing up so much with game devs. old twitter was my one of my favorite communities i’ve ever been a part of, and i’d be so happy to have it back

Hi bsky game devs!! I'm the lead programmer on Slay the Spire 2 at @megacrit.bsky.social. I was also one of the early devs at @github.com! I love architecting systems that are easy for other devs to work with and to build cool content on top of. Here's some fun stuff I've helped make!

sure i might’ve spent my whole sunday learning linux kernel development, but it was all worth it when i hovered this logo and got a fuckin pinterest button

BOO!! The October edition of the Neowsletter is here with exclusive Slay the Spire 2 dev updates, like: 👻 A spooky sneak peek at a new enemy! 🖌️ An art direction devblog (feat. our Art Director Marlowe!) 🧩 New StS Connections 🎨 Community highlights & more!! Read all about it here: t.co/EouLEvcSBq

shout out to the asciitable.com table, which has not changed one pixel since i was in college. still has the comic sans watermark and everything.

i love when you set off the metal detector at the museum and you show them the laptop in your bag and they’re like “ok you’re good” like… shouldn’t you check the other pockets??? there could still ALSO be a battle axe or greatwood in there ???

a thing i think about a lot: there’s nothing inherently “hacker-ish” about the hacker aesthetic (green on black text, monospace font, etc), it only exists because it was the most efficient thing to do in like the 1970s, but then it got picked up by movies and TV shows and now it’s a full vibe!

hot take: the edited version of get low is better

So... we heard you can upload videos on here now?! In that case, let our inaugural Bluesky post be this ~electrifying~ teaser of a new enemy from Slay the Spire 2 🤫⚡

"it is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it" i scream at the weatherman as he tries to explain why 100% humidity means something other than "underwater"

joe biden should just get bangs!!! that’ll change the conversation
