One of those days though, I will be innovative and cool!
Sometimes you just enter Bluesky and are greeted with a vibecoded AI bullshit spam that is cross-promoted and retweeted by obvious bot accounts managed by same person.
Can't they just stay on Twitter?
Oh yeah we ricing that NixOS :D
Still some setup left to be at the point where I had my Garuda, but I am decently happy with what NixOS gives me.
Garuda Linux was awesome, ngl. But I crave MORE.
Installing NixOS over the weekend. Wish me luck.
So it's not really short throw and I don't even have any idea how it stacks in gaming, I use it as a cinema screen in my house.
02.09.2025 15:28 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I have LG CineBeam HU70LS. Used to be a relatively high shelf consumer grade.
What I needed
-LED (no lamp switching)
-As bright as possible
-4k
-As quiet as possible
-Throw long enough to sit I wanted to put it (about 3m-ish)
There are probably better ones out there, but I'm quite happy with mine.
I want to make my next game 2D just so I can get Vincent's amazing drawings. Sheeeeeeeeeeeeesh.

Screw Adobe.
I have managed to capture a hummingbird hawk-moth in the garden!
I've been hunting for this one for quite some time, but it never appeared in a full sun. Until today. I didn't have my macro lens on me unfortunately, but used my main wildlife Tamron 150-600 lens as a decent approximation.
Maybe a little late to the party๐
but this trend perfectly describes our journey with LEVEL 11.11

Two covers of pitch decks - one for a short stop-motion animation, and one for an artistic indie game.
It's a pitch deck season. Finally I have 2 personal projects in the making, that I deeply believe in โค๏ธ
and I'm searching for funding.
Keep the faith (for me) ๐

Plans are for some road trip, either zoo or wildlife expedition, to do a variety of different pictures (low light, action, close up, zoom, etc) and see how it stacks up.

I got to know of them only two years back (I wasn't big into retro emulation before), and really grew to like this laptop in particular. It feels 'just right' for me and my needs.

15.08.2025 09:53 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0it also came with polish language version, I just usually install english OSes so it's easier to troubleshoot errors online.
15.08.2025 09:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Oh it definitely runs blender. Installing blender was one of the 'post launch' installator questions. The only thing it doesn't run is the Adobe suite, but I really want to get rid of them. Right now I'm browsing the internet, looking for decent OS Lightroom alternative.
15.08.2025 09:50 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Yeah! That's why I wanted all the firmware/drivers to run smoothly. The GPD Win Max 2 (I've got old model, about as powerful as a Steamdeck) is such a great indie development hardware. You have a very portable laptop, builtin controller so you don't have to carry additional one, and a tablet in one.
15.08.2025 09:49 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I'vee finally decided to do the big step and moved my game development to open source alternatives. At first I wanted to use FreeBSD, which I know from times long past, but it turns out that it lacked the necessary drivers. I ended up on Garuda Linux and so far it's great: everything just works.

I learned a lot! Maybe you will too?
There's Slavic Game Jam going on right now, plenty of cool people there. I am on summer holidays with my kids, so I'm missing it.

Vekari: Remote Bypass's collection of discovered characters, showing the three main characters: Acro Kameko, Enoch Favonius, and Iliana DuNeotov. Alden Kemp is barely seen underneath under Antagonists.
Enoch Favonius Part 7 Enoch gives Kori a tired look before waving his hand to freeze her in place, her angry expression frozen in time as he plucks the purple VR token from her hand, preventing her chip from scanning it. "I told you, I really don't like doing this." He steps just out of the room, grasping the token tightly and quickly patting himself to ensure the box hasn't been lost in the mess, before he unfreezes her and begins to walk back down the hall. Her yells and the sound of clattering metal is heard from behind him, but he doesn't stop or look back. Before long, Kori's footsteps approach him from behind. Rapidly. "YOU'RE JUST GONNA LET HIM GET AWAY?" Enoch steps to the side, watching the small woman sprint past him and tumble onto the floor in a failed tackle. He lets out a sigh. "No, quite the opposite. I'm making sure he can't. Are we really doing this again?" Continue Reading
