So I want linux on laptop but it seems to be a massive hassle with my university's requirements. We need too much random crap like the safe exam browser. Guess win10 ltsc it is for now. Also how well does teams work on linux? I think I never tried it before x)

My phone is too old for #atalert so I require the herd to spread news and inform me in time of potetial threats. :im_okay:

We decided to revive a 6 year old Shadowrun campaign and what was supposed to be a slow start back to the Sixth World ended with the crew leaving Seattle after realising half the city's criminal underground is after them now. Jep, that escalated quickly and beautifully 😆

Coming back home and catching up with other creatives just to hear how bad funding for anything art and design related has become. Losing Creative Industries Styria will painfully impact our creative industry and I fear it is just the first victim of an even more […]

Got 2 4TB SSDs to upgrade my workstation. Now I have enough space to clean up and put files neatly into folders where they belong...

*looks at all the random files on the desktop* uuuuughhhhh

It is amazing how many different artists you can meet at #bcon

By pure luck, I got to talk to @letterror and was introduced to the typo.social community. Thank you :D

While I'm absolutely no typography expert myself (I do try to learn though :) ), I have a […]

@todor I hope it will be helpful :)

Creating hair and fur in 3D is quite an undertaking and it takes time to learn the tools. I know, because I have made a lot of weird hairstyles by accident before I figured out a workflow which works. :blobfoxlaughsweat:

If you want to know my approach, I […]

Goodbye Amsterdam, see you again next year!

Sadly #bcon25 is already at an end and I can't visit the HQ tomorrow due to my plane leaving early but I have to admit this was one of the best experiences ever. It was again, as always, wonderful to meet all the amazing and creative people, but what made it truly unforgettable this year was […]

So I'm taking a detour to berlin and HOPE the klm flight very late doesn't get cancelled... because tomorrow they strike. Well, being stranded in berlin would at least be a bit better. Yay #bcon25 odyssey.

Chaos @chaosthief.mastoart.social.ap.brid.gy · 23d

My flight just got cancelled... so I'm stuck in munich now...

Chaos @chaosthief.mastoart.social.ap.brid.gy · 23d

Meh, now I'm stuck in munich due to strong winds in amsterdam :(

@EosFoxx Surprised me with the art book from Wild Robot and it is packed with amazing artwork and insights. Thank you so much again! :blobfoxheart:

A turnaround of Greeny! I was in charge of the fur again and also made fixes to the body model for better deformations. As always, she is a team effort:

Clothing: @RoseRedTiger

MLEM

Last year, denden ordered energy drinks for the critter crew animations team. This year we got apple juice and I made the design fit to this year's theme. Fun fact: MLEM has existed in Greeny's universe since EF28. 👀

A drink can with an alien cat and a print on reading: Mlem purrr Astro Apple

Mlem purrr drink can design showing the alien cat in orange and green, apples flying through space and the text reading Mlem purrr astro apple.

The hell is going on with google mail? For over a year emails just vanish, or never arrive. Started out with some mails here and there but I'm convinced now this is not user error anymore. I don't have time for this "big tech can't handle even the simplest things reliable". And no running my own […]

@Snapai I tried the clump method but it's also pretty far from good looking feathers. I know how to instance on curve roots like the old particle system allowed but what I miss is getting the instance to deform along the curve. Feathers don't bend much but a little bit would give it so much more […]

Now, slowly getting back to regular work after EF and oof so much stuff waited patiently at my desk till I'd return. On the contrary, I'm also way too inspired to start new projects. One of which is finally figuring out feathers. Here is an experiment with […]

Voice your disdain, be the issue :blobfox3cevil:

Stay away from the star alliance biometrics gates if you can. Show them disdain. A face scan will never be faster and more convenient than a QR code.

every time someone says that it's impossible to stop using widespread technology with visible useful results, whole industries built on top of it – and causing irreparable harm to people, i have one word in reply:
