The secret sauce of why Internet peaked in the 90’s isn’t because dev tools were better, - it’s because the people building it were.

The strangest thing about North Americans ( both conservative & liberal ) is the non-ironic use of the term “white” as a meaningful descriptor of identity.
People of the world do not define themselves by generational exposure to sunlight, but lineage/tradition/geography/language & religion.

One of the healthiest things I’ve done was to stop trying to read/watch/play *everything* that gets released, - millennials were raised in a media-hungry era constantly plugged in to culture, but it’s no longer possible to meaningfully digest everything, and it’s ok, - eat only when hungry.

Just to get the lay of the land, do I perhaps know of any Europe-based Unreal Engine (C++) developers on here who do freelance work?
Or UE-curious people who would be comfortable with C++ development
Nothing concrete (yet) but I’d like to know of you in case things move forward!?

If you feel like helping a Brazilian dev who also makes music, today is the best way to support me and my work
I highly recommend Ex Machina, a concept album I did about computation, but there are other projects in my profile

I always hoped coding would become a ubiquitous skill among general public ( in the same way driving is ), but the sheer number of programming languages contributed to it being a specialization. Maybe we should’ve picked one as a global standard & just taught it to every kid in the world.

For the past few Bandcamp Fridays I’ve been a little self conscious posting about it, since I haven’t released any new music in awhile. However! People are always super cool and nice and supportive, and I’m very grateful 💚
So pls check out my music. It may not be new, but I’m still very proud of it

This is a good time to start a site with a directory of companies using Ai, - to track & boycott them into oblivion, - the Slop Team list.
We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.
Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

May I suggest the music made by a Palestinian composer? It's none other than MARKSYE who you should be familiar with from games like Boyfriend Dungeon, Thirsty Suitors and more marskye.bandcamp.com

Agree with this, - and we also need more funding models to make journalism sustainable, - whether through
1) free platform with ad revenue sharing or
2) a Netflix for journalism,
this industry needs major support fast, - it’s the public’s best shield against fascist propaganda.

How do you fix journalism?
Fucking pay for it.
Stop complaining about paywalls and subscribe.
The rise of right-wing media is because the rich funded it. The fall of legacy media is because the rich funded it and then decided not to.

I think people would support a crowdfunding campaign for complete Adobe toolset replacement if a dev team committed to it.

If hardware continues appreciating we may see the return of communal gaming spaces. Paying a low flat fee for a highend machine with curated big + indie games in a cozy atmosphere & good food makes sense for casual gamers who just want some weekend fun, - a ‘gaming-as-cinema’ experience.
Yeah, it was a very social place. People would usually play multiplayer, like football games, fighting games and co-op stuff like Metal Slug or Dynasty Warriors.
Some places would make tournaments, people would buy & share accessories like multi-tap and memory cards... it was a place to hang out.
