Hey this is still coming! We're putting the final touches on some super rad high quality music and sfx, and in the meantime I have ANOTHER (super tiny and low stakes) surprise mobile project I'm working on to re-familiarize myself with the app stores and API's and such. News soon! Here's a teaser!

Remember when we used to sit on the toilet without a screen in front of us? If you were lucky you might have had a novelty book about farts, otherwise you had to read the label on the shampoo bottle over and over again. A simpler time...

I've been bedridden for the last 10 months, unable to work as I try to get a surgeon and insurance lined up for my operation to let me work again.
If you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help. Time isn't on my side here, and waiting is very expensive.

it's always interesting when even the experts are perplexed. one of the nuclear forensics experts i spoke with said he's seriously considered flying to indonesia personally just to figure out what's going on

The question of how the cloves were contaminated is harder to answer. The facility where they were processed is over 400 miles away from the smelter. Yet the radiation levels in the sample tested by the FDA were 10 times higher than those found in the shrimp. More perplexing still, a preliminary investigation found only normal background levels of radiation at the facility that processed the cloves, according to Antara News.

“There are a lot of plausible scenarios here,” Biegalski said. “We don’t know where the [cloves] contamination occurred. It could have happened during transit, or it could have happened as an airborne plume, where things got picked up one day but didn’t necessarily gravitationally settle.” The plume could have also settled on the field where the cloves were grown or on the containers they were transported in, he suggested. But there are no clear answers yet.

This whole beautiful comic is *chef’s kiss* and this is my favorite bit.

Piece of larger comic on AI art that says “Someone once told me that art is like emotional nutrition.
That made sense to me.
Art feeds my feelings.
And if that's the case, consuming Al art is like eating styrofoam.”

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

been using chromatic aberration as an alternative to screenshakes by just offsetting the RGB values towards a set direction and distance which just gets lerped back.

feel like it achieves a similar feeling of intensity without taking away visiblity too much?

thoughts? #gamedev

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

if you're doing a side project and someone else is doing the same, don't let this discourage you
it doesn't hurt to have alternatives, different implementations, who knows if they will go as far as you do, and in any case, you will learn a lot and have something cool to show

The satellite array blocks 99% of transmissions.

Is there any way to get a signal through?

OB:
I've got 1% to work with, don't I? Looks like the only thing that isn't blocked is the eggplant emoji.

Do it.
