Endlessly throwing pots of spiders at your enemies just best. The witch doctor in Diablo 3 is the ultimate class.

I'm late to the party but Megabonk is one hell of a fun game.

Not at all. I always find the most interesting write ups are from those actually in the field, working on live projects with real world constraints.

Thank you for the beautifully written tech write up. As an amateur game dev, it's great reading about gfx concepts being applied in practice.

I forgot to mention that every easing can also be used in pure CSS, no JS required, including the spring curves!

If nothing else comes from all the AI fever, I'm happy to see the increased adoption of Markdown as a plain text format.

I geeked it with a markdown file with all the content, then `pandoc` to convert it to PDF and styled it with CSS. The nice bonus is it's easy to update, can export into many formats and the PDF has structured content.

`pandoc cv.md --pdf-engine=weasyprint --css=paper.css --output=cv.pdf`

Petition: Repeal the Online Safety Act We want the Government to repeal the Online Safety act.

This has over 268k signatures now, and the more, the merrier! If you're in the UK and haven't signed this, please do so! There are two days until a debate date is set, and the weight of numbers is important.

The damage this and the payment processor puritanism are doing is substantial.

PS2 emulation works amazingly well on the Steam Deck. I just started Dragon Quest VIII and it looks amazing! #emulation #steamdeck

KSMBD - Wikipedia

Just learnt about `ksmbd`, a Linux kernel SMB server introduced in 5.15 and stable since 6.6β€”perfect for Raspberry Pi OS on 6.6. It enables faster Samba SMB file shares without needing `samba` and its heavy dependencies. Simple, efficient, and high-performance. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KSMBD

This is a super cool project by Mihai Parparita to make classic Mac and NeXT emulation easily accessible in your browser. Play with all these old machines without installing anything. Neat!

It uses WebAssembly ports of Mini vMac, Basilisk II, SheepShaver, DingusPPC, and Previous.
