Completely emptied out the kitchen and built a tea and microwave station in the living room. Floor and wall damp fixes happening first, then new kitchen!

RIP Viktor Antonov. I wish I told you how much admiration I had for you but we get caught in our lives until a surprise like this hits us. You were instrumental to the success of Arkane Studios and an inspiration to many of us, also a friend with whom I have many fond memories

Citizen Sleeper 2 does SUCH a good job of making you feel like you are absolutely toast, but in a dramatic way instead of a frustrating way, you completely trust that something really compelling is going to happen just due to the structure of the game and its relationship with failure.

If Labour approves the Rosebank oil field, it would be the final straw for many of its green-minded voters. It might appease corporate power for a moment, but in doing so it will lose far more than it gains. The government seems to be on a self-destructive streak. Now's the time to rethink.

Falling in love with Citizen Sleeper all over again, the characters ❤️❤️❤️😭. The party and dice breaking mechanics are really nice layers on top of the formula too.

Definitely take it if you get the chance to see The Olllam live. It is transcendent. So folky, so funky, so proggy, so metal(?).

I just cannot stop working on this. Make me stop people.. Our industry doesn't reward perseverance. It's economic suicide. But I cannot stop. I'm going over the Edge!.

Maybe just overtired from travel and overthinking things, but I found the rightward shift of conversational language in Canada noticeable and unsettling.

In gamedev, we joke about how we shouldn't care so much because "we ain't curing cancer" so chill, right? But you know what? These last few weeks reminded me that the Arts, esp accessible Art like videogames is incredibly important because games have a big place in sculpting cultural norms.

You’ll probably see this screenshot floating around a lot but it really was wonderful to see Lynch put a scene in Twin Peaks: The Return where he has his character literally stare at the camera and say that you should either support trans people or die. I needed to hear that in 2017

#Unreal #UE5 Tip #3 - I previously covered Distance Fields for UI elements. You can also use Distance Fields textures for many other things - decals, text, graphics, etc. You can often reduce to 1/2 or 1/4 res. Ben Cloward has a great tutorial demoing this: youtu.be/Euvy_R03rlg?...

A week ago, I had dinner with a key author of the AI consultation. Not just dinner: I berated them for about 7 hours. In return, they gave me a horrid cough. Which is a fair revenge. Anyway, here's a thread about what I took away from the conversation. These are my inferences, not quotes.

Accidentally managed to reset a whole submenu of heat pump settings, sending it into a 2.4kw frenzy and heating the house to 24°c. Luckily #homeassistant had a record of the previous values so I could correct them one by one, without having to pester the installer. Big Saturday win.
