Before I ask the other place I want to try here first.

Anyone have recommendations? I'm looking for new stream alerts. Animated, specifically new follower, sub, raid.

A comic in four panels:  

Panel 1. The Gothic Sorceress stands in the middle of the ruins of her house, in the middle of the mess the floor; a consequence of the night with the Tree Spirits. She's looking overwhelmed. She talks a bit in the void, eyes lost in the distance. Her Avian Intelligence (AI) Parrot listen, perched on a wall in ruins.  
> Gothic Sorceress: "Ugh, it'll take weeks to clean this up."  

Panel 2. A closer zoom on the AI Parrot, replying to the Gothic Sorceress.  
> AI Parrot: "I know a spell or two for that, but I need the highest permission level. Can you grant it to me?"
> Gothic Sorceress: ""Granted." It can't get any worse anyway..."  

Panel 3. A tempest erupts inside the room, the AI Parrot flies in the middle like a majestic and all powerful bird: he is casting a spell loudly. Lightning flashes, cloud of dust are twirling, and many debries are flying. The Gothic Sorceress protect her face with her hands, in emergency.  
> AI Parrot: "Arehem Dash Areheff Root!"

Panel 4. The aftermath of the spell: only the floor of the house survived. Just the tiles on the floor, lost in the middle of the natures with trees and grass. The room are empty, except a toilet seat in a corner. The AI Parrot is proud of his work while the Gothic Sorceress stares at the scene, seating still dizzy after the tornado. She feels powerless in front of the result.  
> AI Parrot: "Cleaning successful, room reset."
> Gothic Sorceress: "I take it back. It **can** get worse."

Don't ever give elevated permissions to an Avian Intelligence...

There seem to be quite a lot of people who strongly believe that AI is smarter than they are. They are probably right.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

Now that I've read that comment, I hope and wish that they give us power washers that you can affix to your street cleaning vehicle as upgrades. πŸšΏπŸššπŸ’¨πŸ’¨πŸ’¨

I really enjoy watching the sketches Ryan George does. 😁

But sometimes I wish they wouldn't feel so close to reality, as the more and more seem to feel. πŸ˜“

(There is a Ryan George account here on bsky, but I am not certain it is really him, so I won't tag it)

Now I can't help but wonder, if the last remaining pieces of a Dodo are not in some museum collection, but buried deep deep inside an old chest freezer in some basement corner of the Cook household, in a freezer bag with "Sunday Leftovers" written on it. πŸ€”πŸ˜‹

A slightly blurry image of a brown bag standing on a porch with a gray wood panel floor. A clipart of a "googly eye" has been added to the image on top of the bag, with the eye looking towards the camera.

Now I hope that next time the DoorDash person slaps some Googly Eyes on your bag, for the meme. πŸ˜…

Take a look at strudel.cc/workshop/fir... and hit the tiny "play" button for an example.

You can edit the music "code" live, then hit <Ctrl+Return> to apply your changes. <Ctrl+.> to stop the playback.

Way more details to be found in the workshop and documentation.

Thanks to some people in @h0ffman.bsky.social 's stream chat I've now learned about Strudel, a "live coding platform to write dynamic music pieces in the browser".

I wish I was more imaginative or creative, because this looks crazy neat and fun. Writing & visualizing music directly in browser. 😎

Well, I'm fine with my 43.25/50 -- two of the colors I really did pick more wrong than I thought (or remembered worse than I imagined).

@teamlazerbeam.bsky.social A "Leshy Cleric" sounds like something that'd be right at home in Shroom and Gloom, and make the players life that little bit more miserable. πŸ˜‡

What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

My pal and fellow Scottish developer Chris Brown recently put his solo-dev racing game AGX GP up on Steam and you should definitely give it a look if you like AAA Wipeout visuals with ridiculously-fast twitch arcade gameplay. store.steampowered.com/app/4250680/...

The digital version of the colouring book is also on the etsy store, or alternatively on ko-fi (links are in the artists bsky profile).

Not sure if this fits what you are looking for, but I did get the digital version of this colouring book (would've loved to get the physical one, but shipping options were not conducive).

After 9+ years at ustwo games I have unfortunately been made redundant.

If there are going to be fotos of the food in the zine, I now hope that you add a "blooper"-page or -section. πŸ˜‡

Hello nerds, my job searching continues, I'm looking for Table Top Miniature Companies in UK, Europe or USA - chances are they are on my list already, but I am not omniscient, so any recommendations or insider knowledge is welcome!
