Just reminded myself how hard the ending of Coffin Text Spell 714 goes

getting somewhere. Deserializing terrain generation asset files and using them to create chunked heightmap meshes with #bevy. This is the "complex planet" example from noise_rs running on my laptop.

very glad for this app and for substack, feels like twitter/tumblr around 2016 again, in terms of cool content

just wanna remind people that the person who snitched on luigi got none of the promised reward because of random technicalities. you have nothing to gain by being a rat.

freaky mingus and the chubby chingus

this is the best tech mascot i've ever seen 😭

i rly like obsidian, i just wish i could sync it with proton drive on android

why are physical copies of books so expensive :(

i feel deeply justified for hating contemporary video games. older games, espc early 3d games, had this aura of exploration and world inhabitance. that is no longer what games are about, and it seems like that's not what people even want anymore. at least not in the primary desire.

when i leave they will say "where have you been?" and i will say "kansas," and they will nod and smile sadly

insomnia has got her hold on me, so I’m merely snuggled up reading and this may be one of the most profoundly critical texts I’ve read about our medium in a while, Joey Schutz has really outdone themselves blog.joeyschutz.com/to-kill-a-dr...

training some ai for extra cash. being a digital turk is torture. i do not envy people who do this full time

"Life requires taking sides" Calligraffiti spotted in Chicago

i love 2 learn ^w^ ^_^ >w< ^o^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

i set up windbg and renderdoc to debug my wsl msvc rust game built with bevy and if you know what that means then you know that my meat is huge

hello cis friends this is what people mean by trans genocide if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

Just based on the abstract I like this, reading it now and adding it to my noheroes list (sootyempiric.blogspot.com/p/no-heroes-...). philpapers.org/rec/SVOWTG?r...

i don't like that the recruiter called me young man, but he wants to pay me $145k so I'll deal

NEW: A group known as the 'puppygirl hacker polycule' has leaked thousands of police training & policy manuals from departments across the country www.dailydot.com/debug/lexipo...

remember when Google's motto was "do no evil?"

it happened so gradually that I didn't even realize I became a (surreal) landscape artist

getting somewhere. terrain generation with @bevyengine.org. not sure what's up with the black blobs, probably something with the normals. each chunk here is 256x256 vertices. been trying to test that there are no overlaps or gaps in the terrain, which has proven to be difficult

I put some info from a website into zine form so you can print them and have fun. It's all happening on www.littlemouse.fun

critical theory seems to be a move away from the eternal. the death of god. so it attacks the whole western tradition

i knew i hated musk but he used to just be an annoyance. now he's making it hard to file my taxes????

i retract my previous statements about the wonders of coding with ai. the amount of hallucinated code is really just too much.

i feel bad for the owner of the shiba inu whose dog is now the face of a government takeover. and i feel bad for the students who have to learn that a memelord and a reality show star emptied out our government. they will have to say "DOGE"

broken perlin mesh generation + some z fighting

a nice bug

i also still love writing rust

i love my daughter

iai.tv/articles/log... excellent. I've been looking for a way to describe this predicament. hegel seems to provide a path here. the argument feels similar to heidegger to me; probably he took it from hegel; they do both share a central concern with being, time, and dialectic reason
