nobody's hiring because all the money is being thrown at AI right?

my backyard has some and i keep thinking of sticking a sign out front that's like "coyotes live back here, keep yer cats inside"

gona have to write up a thing about Baby Steps' themes because everything I've read by gaming sites misses the point of the story imo

hellojed @hellojed.bsky.social · 23h

Laura Michet @lmichet.bsky.social · 23h

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

yeah, i feel like 8 years of not developing a beef is a pretty good run, it just really sucks. I really tried with them too.

there's a part of Scorigami part 4 where Jon and Alex contemplate football tens of thousands of years in the future and show an image of the earth when the sun has expanded, turning it into a fiery hellscape, and I think about that whenever I worry about anything

hellojed @hellojed.bsky.social · 1d

nope

any seattle furry clique wants to adopt me, I do small engine repair

I don't think so, it's very hard to participate and have fun with him around

hellojed @hellojed.bsky.social · 1d

I got along with everyone pretty well because I'm open and trusting, and this person took advantage of that, and now hanging out while he's there is very difficult.

we have a few holiday parties that I was looking forward to, but if he's going to be there I'm not going to have a good time. I don't feel good after last night so I'm wondering if I really do have to not show up anymore for my own health

hellojed @hellojed.bsky.social · 1d

What do you do when your social group of like 8 years includes someone who seriously fucked you over, insulted you for being upset, and they can't get kicked out? Mopeds aren't fun for me anymore, because of one specific person who is never going to leave. I don't know what I'm going to do

they have a fetish for complexity. They invented a toilet that worked on submarines but it was so complicated it needed it's own engineer - then one captain decided to use it to without one and it flooded the boat - forcing it to surface and leading to it's capture.

hellojed @hellojed.bsky.social · 2d

not yet, I heard there was one that almost but not quite worked but I might. I have an original 360 that somehow knock on wood never rrod'd

"why does this fleetwood mac song have so many weird comments on youtu....ah it's from JoJo's" maybe I should watch JJBA

I guess you can also rip discs directly to it's hard drive. A modded OG Xbox is such a good value to be honest. Plays old games pretty good, and DVDs.

The only way to add games to my xbox is to connect a computer, fire up the xbox's ftp client, then connect via a laptop and transfer an iso at a blazing 10mb/s

someone in a podcast I listened to today said like "all the developers that worked on legendary games in the 90s would never be able to get into the industry today" and I think that might be entirely accurate

I gotta show up on one of my mopeds again.
