That's a lot of hardware. And good rolling paper.

Superb game. I still have the big box. The puzzles can be hard, but never illogical like the King's Quest disasters. There was only one puzzle that was problematic, iirc involving a yellow ducky.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

Slowly reworking my old engine to be cross-platform. Target should be the (old) Steam Deck and better. All assets are temporary.

With the passing of Rebecca Heineman today, I wanted to share some images from her last, now forever unfinished project. She was working on amazing stuff right up until the end.

It was Dragon Wars remastered.

Jennell Jaquays was art directing.

far be it from me to tell scientists how to do their jobs but i feel like there might be value in surveying the <365 hot dogs per year demographic

Added sun, moon and an atmosphere to my sky demo. Here's a sped up view from "outside". The sky is intentionally "artist" driven colour rather than simulated, in order to be easier to get the desired aesthetic. As before, the positions of everything should line up with reality. #gamedev #skybox

Les imbΓ©ciles incompΓ©tents et trop sΓ»rs d'eux du DOGE (Γ  l'image de Musk quoi) pensent faire des Γ©conomies en remplaΓ§ant des stockages de donnΓ©es Γ  long terme sur bande magnΓ©tique par un stockage "moderne" (i.e. du cloud, donc des disques durs).

these stupid fucking stemlords think that any form of hardware or software older than they are is clearly obsolescent so we should just store it on the cloud like a modern country

That graph would be interesting if the leverage on bitcoin were like in FX. But it’s not. Fix your axes.

-3% is -3%. Minus three percent. No need to use graphs. For every hundred, you lost three. No more, no less.

Was having dinner with work colleagues and was told that hiring is now horrible. Everyone lies through their teeth and every online interview has the candidate stalling until chatgpt answers on another screen.

Things need to change, fast.
Not saying that AI is bad, just that humans need to adapt.

And of course the classic green, amber or white phosphor screens with extra barrel distortion. End. 5/5

SDD also has many postprocessing features such as seen on this animation: scanlines, screen warp, ghosting, phosphor blur, any more 4/
