It's a fun demo! It seems like it's doing exactly what you've intended. Nailed it!

Most of them have been. Quite a bit of knee bending and ring kissing in the last decade. It's been very direct and public in the last year. Did you see who was at the inauguration? We literally watch shameless bribes with Tim Apple happen live. Very few holdouts left.

Yeah, tags seem very effective on bsky in helping you reach your audience because of how easy it is to follow feeds. The Godot community is very active here!

I added some atmospheric effects to my 2D planet shader. #godot #gamedev

In elementary, we had spelling tests every week, and the workbooks had an appendix with acceptable alternatives. For example, it said that "layed" and "tomatoe" were also correct. As a nerd, I took it literally and memorized them.

40 years later, it still trips me up.

The two Star Trek games announced this week were not on my bingo card.

- A Voyager base management game
- A VR zombie game where you as a vulcan try to hold onto your logic as you slowly turn into a zombie

They're both a bit out of left field, but I'm here for it.

She walks against the wind everywhere we go
Stops at every corner, gotta put on a show
Carries 'round a picture of Marcel Marceau
Always the quiet type, but how was I know to know?

She never told me she was a mime.

Looks like fried zilm’kach in grapach sauce. Very Americanized to fry it like that.

This is great! An instant buy for a modern version of one of the best roguelikes ever. Are you planning a MacOS build eventually? I always have a mac on me for work.

Yep, I've seen the exact same talking points in other articles last week.

This is the second article I've seen in the last week with the exact same points. Who is paying you for this nonsense?

From iconic to concussed!

Still the perfect pick-up-and-play traditional roguelike!

My toxic trait is that I want one of these as a Cafe Coding Cyberdeck. I'd put some crazy Linux Tiling Window Manager on it, wrap it in a vinyl skin, and then never actually use it.

if you know someone who was impacted, call them. Support them, lend them your network, your references, your referrals, and your time. This is a day with a lot of tears.

I can vouch directly for Fritzy's deep experience across many engineering disciplines. If you are hiring for a role, you should drop a note and try to hire him!

Today was my last day at GitHub/npm.

I've been doing this for nearly 25 years, so I've accrued quite a bit of expertise. If you're looking for someone that is an experienced programmer with a passion for data in all forms (databases, apis, protocols, etc.) please reach out.

My unoriginal opinion: There's some fun character development and useful lore, but most of the episodes aren't good. Some are terrible. I skip about 1/4th of season 1 when doing a rewatch. Most of the writing lacks character agency, where everyone reacts based on their role and one defining trait.
