Undoubtedly the most terrifying part of a Lego build: putting the stickers on.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.
Us: Across your entire career?
Reiner: In a 6 year period.
Us: That sounds-
Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

@icyveins.bsky.social FYI, your Windwalker Monk guides for Lemix and the normal rotation pages are plain broken - the sliders to adjust levels either don't do anything, or adjust a different part of the page.
Apparently it was checked for 11.2.7, but broken since January going by comments.

If you saw the trailer for the "New Jonathan Blow Game" then probably worth reading this thread.
So, “Order of the Sinking Star” by Thekla was just announced, which takes several small free games (two of which are mine) and gives them a major graphical upgrade and mashes up their rulesets. I haven’t been very involved but it’s a great concept and looks cool.

I was working on my TimAllensBigSupernaturals code to improve it to the point I can run entire movies/episodes through it, and this early test of decode->reencode functionality ran into a minor glitch.
See if you can spot it in this clip from Amok Time!
