The fever can’t break soon enough

An IDE is a kind of text editor with a convenience button that invokes a build, and approximately 9000 other features that interrupt you and absolutely fuck your shit up constantly

Whenever someone’s arguing “it’s more faithful to the source material” about an book’s adaptation to the screen, like that makes it intrinsically better in some way, I cannot stress enough how much I do not care

(pausing while reading a book to our 7yo) Wife: “Do you know what ‘torment’ means?” 7yo: “I think it’s something to do with a volcano.” Wife: “No, it means ’to cause pain‘.” 7yo: “Okay.“ 7yo: “…” 7yo: “I think it might have two meanings.”

I am obviously not opposed to people making money off of videogames. But really a lot of problems in the broader tech space would be solved by shunning anyone who first conceives of software as a means to make a line on a graph go up at an unsustainable pace in perpetuity

One hazard of being tall is changing your shirt and accidentally sticking your hand in an operational ceiling fan

(7 year old, asking the important questions) “If I was invincible, could I eat myself?”

You cannot open files of this type without the Boozle plugin. (downloads Boozle) This file type is not set as default to open in Fingaling. Would you like to change this? (clicks yes) Fingaling is part of the Nublibble family of applications. Would you like to download The Nublibble Launcher?

programs for computers used to be made by people whose primary goal was to make a good program for the computer

Reading about ISO standards, and found this cool protocol and connector standard that’s used to control agricultural equipment. There’s a lot of standards! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_11783

I’m still alive lol

I'm home alone and doing graphics programming, call me Macaulay Vulkan

The id Tech lineage of software is one of the most culturally foundational works in the history of real time graphics software. To end that lineage is a massive loss to the craft. My heart goes out to the team affected by the layoffs.

Title of an unpublished Philip K Dick short story

Highly-stylized games are not necessarily less computationally expensive to render than styles evoking photorealism.

Praying for Drakengard Ending E

I got CrossCode after sleeping on it for way too long. It’s really the vibe I needed in this moment. The music is peak, and the playground-like world design is really fun to mess around in. store.steampowered.com/app/368340/C...

I don't like it when games make you make a whole character at the absolute very beginning. I don't know anything about your game. How could I possibly make a good decision? I'll tell you who I am later.

Chat, what’s a good thing happening right now

I always read this in the deranged howling of the guy at the close of Requiem for a Dream

As a trans woman, I hope today’s Supreme Court ruling is an obvious lesson to onlookers to why my answer to “do you want more rights and protections?” is always ”yes”. It’s not academic to me, and I have spent my life watching people find new ways to strip me of things other people take for granted.

I need a database of all gas stations that have a slushie machine

Killer, philanderer, entrepreneur

I had no idea what I was signing up for when I bought this mouse trap

Reading this cool manga about a normal woman who is unjustly maligned by everyone she encounters

Adrian Paul… hello

A really great read

Parenting is cool because sometimes one of your kids, who should be asleep, bursts into your bedroom at 10:15 PM to ask “is Chuck E Cheese animatronic?”

Everybody hop on, we’re doing the quantum computing grift next

I have a lot of problems, but the biggest one is that they don’t make these frames anymore and they’re super hard to find used

I think if i tried real hard and kept a steady hand I could probably make enough RAM to solve the crisis

The most important skill I am trying to pass on to my children is cultivating a capacity to remain normal when things outside of one’s control take you by surprise

Feel free to give me $120 directly

New T-Square! What a nice surprise

Nobody loves various dips and sauces more than I

Just witnessed someone horny-posting on LinkedIn. God has forsaken that place

Suing the Levi’s Store for putting the jeans for the longest legs on the shelf nearest the ground

Every 90s dance music group was one woman with the voice of angel and one rapping guy who sounded like satan. They let you assume they were from Brooklyn, but you’d find out 2 decades later on Wikipedia that they were actually from Stuttgart

City Slickers (1991, dir. Ron Underwood)

The Capcom logo and the Jeopardy clue cards are the same typeface?

Getting the feeling that billboard advertising in San Francisco is about to become very inexpensive

Happy Pride! Here’s to hoping it happens this month

A24 should do Petscop next

I need someone to mail me a bag of Grippo’s Sour Cream & Onion chips or I WILL die

Many people say “I like a person who is humble” when what they really mean is “I like someone who is unaware of their own value, and thus, easier to manipulate”. Not the same thing! I‘m on to you jerks!

Walking into a room, smelling delicious food, but knowing there is no good source for that smell. Not good! Awful experience!

How is it not Friday

I’m on UE7
