Okay, it's time. I have a prized Cult of the dead cow Zippo lighter. These simply do not exist anywhere. But a CDC member is hurting and I want to encourage donations to the GoFundMe, so out it goes. Details in thread.

I've been bedridden for the last 10 months, unable to work as I try to get a surgeon and insurance lined up for my operation to let me work again.
If you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help. Time isn't on my side here, and waiting is very expensive.

it would be pointless to even attempt to understand what unseen forces caused this tragedy. we can only mourn, and tip well

as someone who has created many image formats (some of them bad, on purpose!), I'm not a fan of this, but I am a woman of the people, and I've seen enough "the inventors of webp should be tried at the Hague" posts to know which way the wind is blowing on this issue

every time someone buys it, steam/itch/whatever should flip a coin. if it's tails, no money for you. heads, two dollars

i really need to find a new job. is anyone hiring for Rust (or functional programming) that isn’t AI or blockchain crap, isn’t a morally repugnant company (such as Google), and can actually compete with Apple for bay area compensation?

If you're looking for retro textures I can really recommend @strideh.bsky.social's work! They offer three free packs and a premium one. They look really sharp, have a true Quake-feeling, can be used in commercial projects and were made without use of AI!

I cannot stress how important Rebecca has been for trans gamedevs. I wouldn't be here if not for her and her wife.

Help if you can.

When playing Ridge Racer, I noted the announcer during the replay has a tone similar to the ClayFighter announcer.

I found the role is credited to Michael Guinn. Not the CF announcer, but IMDb has Guinn as Dracula from Symphony of the Night and Harry Mason from Silent Hill.

I didn't expect that.

it basically is, I don't have access to the font I need so I made a tilesheet on win98 and made my script dynamically crop the correct date out. In this version, it wasn't working
