Everyone is familiar with the Joker.

Not as many are familiar with his brothers Smoker and Midnight Toker.

I'm trying to make sense of why the Dems would cave on the shutdown vote.

Problem is, I'll be trying forever, because the more I scrutinize it, the less sense it makes.

I really want to see a silver lining with this decision, but I can't justify one.

Fuck this timeline.

Say what you will about Scarlet and Violet, but the story and characters rocked out loud. Especially the final hours in Area Zero.

I still think about that whole sequence of events a LOT.

If you see this repost with a Sentai Team that’s not Power Rangers or Super Sentai

Huzzah! Fury's Sky: Vagabond is now running on the release candidate for UZDoom! Minimal tweaks required!

Loving the new input menu as well; it should make assigning binds a lot easier. Just need to fix keybinds saving. Also, haptics work great!

Well, I managed to redesign and rig the Rook model for Fury's Sky: Vagabond. And I did a rough idle animation.

Not bad.

Meh. Tried to do a humanoid sculpt in Blender and this was the best I could come up with.

I hate my utter lack of artistic skill sometimes...

Mamdani won his mayoral race! I guess we can still have nice things in this world.

Looking forward to seeing all the MAGA meltdowns about this.

Businesses adopting return-to-office mandates is fucking funny to me. They've spent countless funds investing in new networked technologies and IT infrastructure that make life easier only to avoid using it.

I get sunk-cost fallacy is a thing, but the antipathy toward remote work is still stupid.

I swear, Linux kinda sucks when it comes to native games. I was trying to setup the Linux version of BizHawk and it wouldn't save my configs or save data because it was put in a directory where it didn't have write access.

Ended up using the Win version with Proton. It's a FAR better experience.

Civilization is cooperative by nature. Society worked for us because banding together and specializing in skills to contribute to a greater whole was a better deal than just individuals going off and fending for themselves.

This is also why isolationism and protectionism don't work as policy.

Did some modeling on a new boss enemy for my #gamedev project, Fury's Sky: Vagabond! This one is called the "Rook." It will be a bulky, formidable threat that can fold it's front claws into a shield and counterattack when struck at certain times.

Picked up a game called Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree. It's a really pretty and fun 2-D Metroidvania Souls-like, with a ton of content to chew on.

But apparently it isn't worth the $40 asking price, because other games are supposedly "better."

I have problems with that statement.

Testing out my new recording setup on Linux, as well as showing off a new feature! Enemy projectiles can now show up on the radar as white dots. This allows the player to avoid projectiles if the enemy shooting them is off camera.

Having WAY too much fun with my EndeavourOS install...

GitHub is putting out a preview of an AI-powered code review tool...

Considering AI has tons of issues writing enterprise-level code, the very idea of AI giving good feedback is laughable.

This is gonna crash and burn like the goddamned Hindenburg.

My 6-year-old daughter is surprisingly adept at Pokemon White. She got past the first gym leader (with some help from me :P) and is working on the second. Considering I was around 9 when I first played Pokemon and struggled with getting through Mt. Moon, she's doing really well!

Holy fuck, it has been YEARS since I made this mod. Really does take me back...

It was FAR from the best experience, but hey, it was my first mod, and it was good for learning...

Fixing a lot of the last few quirks of my Linux install. Managed to fix an error with the texture editor on the Linux version of SLADE and working out paths and running maps so now I can resume gamedev on Vagabond.

I still need to fix my mouse not working intermittently, but still, Linux good

Oh for the love of God. People are now saying that enjoying a janky game is equivalent to an abusive relationship with the studio.

This meme is why I can't take Pokemon fans or gamers seriously. They have no sense of goddamned perspective. Everything is so dramatic or overblown.

One of the things I thought I would miss with Linux vs Windows was being able to use my Razer Ripsaw capture card.

After hassling with it on a Windows laptop, I basically just said "fuck it" and decided I didn't miss it as much as I thought.
