Recent discussion about the perils of doors in gamedev reminded me of a bug caused by a door in a game you may have heard of called "Half Life 2".

I wrote it up over on Mastodon (I find it's better at long threads):

Okay but now you've said "Muppet Knives Out" we need Muppet Knives Out
Am I a hypocrite for wanting this after giving a hard no to muppet knives out
Okay, I'm making my case for the only Muppet I want to see on Broadway right now...

It's hard to overstate how much I CARED about this screenshot spread (Nintendo Power, May 1996, via Ye Olde Internet Archive).

Also, Nintendo Power sure did love them some typefaces and gradients and stuff huh.

Just now realizing that I've been using Blender for 18 years and the last time I supported them was... 18 years ago (which was really just a purchase of a T-shirt and a book). Yeah, I should probably donate.

(Also yes I'm still on 2.49b for my own legacy engine reasons. Don't care, I wanna help!)
Blender is struggling. it's the best piece of 3d software on the market, and it's free. I'm not going back to autodesk.
please donate if you can!

Good news: If you would like to watch Ricky Jay and His 52 Assistants on YouTube I have done a painstaking 4k upscale of this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0gW...

Not sure if it's weather or allergies or stress or what but I have been feeling miserable today. Stuffy, runny, sneezy nose, watery eyes, sinus headache.

I want a big bowl of ramen or pho.

I think they should invent a kind of thought that’s intrusive in nature.

I think I'm a pretty good cook. I'm eating a Jimmy Dean brekkie sando at 1 AM, just like a good cook would do.

When the rapture comes and none of us goes to heaven, this will be the thread God's angels will present as proof of our collective sin.

Glen Powell is killing it on SNL, one of the most comfortable hosts in ages.

Third episode of Pluribus was gooood. I simultaneously wish I could binge this show but am also enjoying savoring it.

Schloss der Wölfe is still my personal favorite of my game jams. Also, I'd completely forgotten that the intro text was directly referencing the intro I'd written for NEON STRUCT: Desperation Column.

I wonder how many people only know me because I used to be "verified" on Twitter back when Twitter was Twitter.

I'm nobody. I'm just an old kid who likes making video games and knows how to game a system.

I would pay a bazillion dollars to have This Delicate Thing We've Made on vinyl.

Like, some years ago before I blew all my money buying a home, I was actually thinking about reaching out to Darren to fund a pressing of this album. It matters that much to me.

It's pretty cool* to live in a country where our leader probably raped children and the state media is like "no, that's ephebophilia, not pedophelia".

*I hate it here.
