It's annoying to browse for materials in Unreal, especially when doing level design, because the content browser shows the textures applied to spheres, so I just made a texture browser widget that works like you'd want. Searchable too, and you can change the thumbnail size. Who wants it

Here's a game design tip for the US congress.
You cannot play a game with someone who has flipped the table and set it on fire.
You throw them out of your house

You can say this doesn’t matter because billionaires view normal people as instruments for their will but keep in mind we’re talking about a guy who cried after being booed at a Dave Chappelle stand up set
The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

Unelected agents of a oligarch have seized core services of the state without legal sanction or authorization; yes, that's a coup
it's not hyperbolic to say we're witnessing a coup.
Exclusive: Musk aides lock government workers out of computer systems at US agency, sources say
Aides to Elon Musk charged with running the U.S. government human resources agency have locked career civil servants out of computer systems that contain the personal data of millions of federal employees, according to two agency officials.

I know this sounds weak, I know it.
But kindness is one of the few things we carry that can make a difference for each other.
We can’t undo all this hate, but we can still make life a little easier for others.

For anyone arguing that this isn't the same salute. Here is a side-by-side view. It's not just that the arm is extended outward. It's the entire movement of bringing the right hand to then extending the arm straight with the palm facing downward.
This is intentional.

Go make the art you’ve always wanted to make. Write the stories you’ve been dreaming of. Sing your heart out. Pick up an instrument & play. Do the things you’ve been holding back on because you’re worried about what others might think. Just do it. Do it now. Life is short. Life is precious. Please.
