I dont have much of a following on here, but if you can spare anything for Hasan and his family, please do

All else, please share

Designer Hasan @designer4hasand.bsky.social · 20h

Please — don’t underestimate your act of kindness.😓❤️‍🩹

Every father dreams of giving his children safety —
but for me, safety means a roof that won’t disappear tomorrow. 🏠💔

We’re short on this month’s rent — $500 needed before the 15th —and without it, my children will have nowhere to sleep in peace.

Your kindness can be our shelter this month. 🙏❤️

A message from my dear friend Tasneem in Gaza:
"On this earth, there is that which deserves life."

The civilians who survived the relentless bombing are now homeless, hungry and without any means of work.

Please give to Tasneem so she can feed her children. And to others. ❤️🙏

For Premiere, I recommend DaVinci Resolve. Industry standard for colour grading, but has a great workflow and capacity for editing, sound, and fx. Also it's free + open source

Nicky D and the Birds of Prey @dicnepper.bsky.social · 29d

Hope not. Try again

Learning ECS has been fun so far. It's like. Made engines click.

The road to making my own Game Engine gets clearer every day

hell yeah nested if statements

It definitely feels like they're building to something

With any luck I'll be going into Computer Science at College this winter.

If all goes well, my game development capabilites will be much better off than right now.

Currently still trying to work on it, but perhaps I will even be able to call myself an honest to god Game Developer!

I need to get me a boring office job.

Let me enter data. Let me type away. Let me make a spreadsheet and/or send an email.

Person hearing arpeggiating synth who has seen Stranger Things: Whoa, this sounds like Stranger Things!

First day on the internet pal?

Oh I had no idea Unity had done ANOTHER shitty thing, I just thought this was best for my ambitions/ability ratio.

Not surprised with Unity though. Slimy fucks.

Nicky D and the Birds of Prey @dicnepper.bsky.social · May 16

Alright fine. I'll learn Godot.

I'm a writer and musician. Both things suck in many ways and can feel like bashing your head against the wall. But the moments when you are writing and it is just flowing out of you, or someone comes up with a part and a song just forms itself as if by magic? That's the point. AI can't give you that

I have many thoughts on Skeletá. Too many to share here.

Bland and Generic? Fuck no. Don't get why I keep hearing that. Weird as hell? New territory for Ghost? Absolutely.

Still mulling it over, but I think it gets an 8/10 from me

They've been here before for Ultimate Tour Named Death when I first saw them (And in previous tours), but they only briefly touched down in Ontario and Quebec for the entirety of Imperatour

Korn and Gojira finally setup a commendable Canada tour.

Tickets were stupidly expensive and it sold out in like two weeks.

It's a hard time to be a concert lover in Canada

Nah nah nah, that's a lovely colour pallette, great composition, and there's so much mystery in the simplicity! Of course you've honed your craft, but you clearly started on a very strong foot.

Be proud of your progress, but also be proud of what got you here!

I think smart phones + the general boom of "smart" technology is just. Diminishing returns at this point.

Between Ghost's policy with the new shows and Eddy Burback's recent video, it's feeling like a good idea to disconnect more.
