A map of current snow build-up across Japan. I think does a great job of showing the incredible "yukiguni" lake effect Japan receives on its Sea of Japan/East Sea side. Some of the deepest snowdrifts in the world, with incredible amounts falling in 24 hours. Meanwhile, Tokyo is completely dry.

I occasionally speak to my phone like "hey google set a timer for 20 minutes" or whatever, a useful thing Google spent years making good enough. Then they swapped it out for "Gemini" which if I say that to it it goes "I can't do that" and gives a page of wrong instructions on how to set my own timer

just the head of Udon comics telling folks there's no DEI in Street Fighter lol

submitted 2 days ago • 60 comments

DEI is core to Street Fighter as a concept and part of the reason why it's had such a wide and enduring appeal. Am I crazy or has nobody ever complained about shit like that until very recently? Like, it's a 35-year-old franchise and I've never heard this complaint before.

My first Civ 7 victory. Went Khmer/Ming/Siam. Got scientific victory in 1890s. Abused the hell out of influence system. Siam felt a bit overpowered with independent states.

In 1989 (during the Reagan/Bush era), I worked with a USAID subcontractor to design a sewer treatment plant in Cairo. As witness, I observed how it positively impacted the perception of the U.S.—Reagan agreed.

Spent years trying to warn people that Senator Warner is terrible, and had lots of people try to tell me he's one of the good guys. Also, when one of his staffers went around defaming me to my friends, they forward that shit to me...

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

It’s amazing that one person can run six companies, manage the entire federal bureaucracy, and be model parent to 13 children. Truly a triumph of time management.

Look at this new work of art I made yesterday. 😂 One thing that often happens is people get very confused about what is wuxia, xianxia, and xuanhuan due to lack of understanding about the terms. So I made this venn diagram to help. 😂

Recently, one of our clients had to ask game localization agency LocalizeDirect to remove several of their games from their online portfolio, as they had not in fact worked on those games. 🧵⬇️

You've always got to ask localizers up front whether they will provide you with credits. We made this mistake before, also with localizedirect, which is reflected in the Hyper Gunsport credits from @necrosoftgames.com
