I do like a good curry though.

::sigh:: 😔 kinda just all around angry and disappointed today.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Halloween candy is expensive this year, so I'll just be handing out little baggies of random legos from the 31 gallon Rubbermaid tub in the basement.

People who think embracing GOP hatred of trans people is the only way for Democrats to win in that part of the country should remember that in 2025, John Ewing became the first Black mayor of Omaha NE by running this ad. He beat Republican incumbent Jean Stothert by 12 points.

testing environment? no, no, you misheard me. i want a resting environment

The current dilemma for most creatives now is that you need to share work online for your business to survive but if you do, it will immediately be stolen and replicated by AI and it's quite possible your business won't survive that

Medical advancements! We have prevention and management for HIV/AIDS. We have solid treatments for so many more cancers. We have vaccines that prevent cancers! We have vaccines that have prevented so much severe illness!

Why do we persist in making games despite weeks like this one? This:

LOL Ultron calling Vision a Wanker 🤣

what exactly DOES happen to materials from a major studio that’s closed? where do physical hard drives, documents, etc go? who maintains all this pointless secrecy? if you know or have stories, get in touch: nathan@aftermath.site, nathangrayson.666 (signal), aftermathdotsite@proton.me (proton mail)

Good news everyone. The indie apocalypse is finally over! AAArmageddon shall unfortunately continue.

Great way to explain it. Also I know it's terrible but also I can't stop laughing thinking about an 8 bit encryption key.

the only thing you really need to know about php if you don't know anything about it is that for years a shitload of functional metadata was just shit you put in comment blocks

OMG 😱🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I love how Tokyo (all of Japan?) always seems to have a publicly agreed upon seasonal ingredient. Right now it's sweet potato season (芋の季節). There are sweet potatoes everywhere; roasted, in pastries, in drinks...I love it.

👀 oh!

The Billionaire doth protest too much.

Why would we want cars to be sentient?

OMG also just realized the Mom is working at S-Mart?!!!!! What 👀

I think ultimately ai is turning software development *itself* into a pay to play gacha instant satisfaction game.

Konami president Hayakawa believes AI “won’t bring a significant change” to the game market. “Humans” and “creators” are crucial for developing innovative…

When shopping in Japan, I'm never sure if the clerk rushing up to tell me the item only comes in ONE SIZE does this for everyone or if they are trying to warn me it won't fit my thick American mom bod?

Was a temp receptionist for 10 days over a winter holiday in college and it was the most boring job I've ever had. I think the company got about 4 phone calls during that whole 10 days 🤣 and zero visitors. (This was before cellphones... And no computer at the desk)

This is a great thread about Ilhan Omar but I wanted to highlight this one because so many people do not realize that constituent services are part of what your elected folks are supposed to be doing, and it's rare that they'll go out of their way to bring it to your attention.

What this article doesn't say is the warning said it was a 9.9!! So we all evacuated the building at work ASAP.... ...it was a nice little shot of adrenaline and now I need a nap. japannews.yomiuri.co.jp/society/gene...

i will never not be militant about trans rights cis people: demand nothing less than full, unequivocal rights for trans people and do not accept from anyone the idea that it is naive to demand it we deserve what you have

And the playdates that won't happen, the people who won't fall in love, the friend who won't be there to comfort and be comforted. You never know where your best friend will be from.

Bad decisions

Japanese curry Absolutely fantastic

for people giving him heat for the AI paragraph, you're entitled to do that and he can respond to it how he sees fit. but know this - every single game dev in the world is facing this conundrum rn, and when you're stewarding other people's jobs as a lead, the answer is far from simple.

Ooooooof 🤣
