Neat life hack I discovered: If you ever need to determine whether someone is a fucking idiot, just check if they’ve unironically said ‘vibe coding’ in a sentence.

You had me at Pet Shop Boys

I find myself thinking about the mechanics of a 2D Monster Hunter style game far too often

It would sure be awful if people bought copies of this movie and sent them to Vance’s office!! www.imdb.com/title/tt7133...

Depression sucks. I can always tell when I'm hitting a big funk, and this one is a doozie.

After being on stimulants for over 22 years for ADHD, having to abruptly go off them for the past month and a half because of supply chain issues is essentially the worst thing ever - I wasn't aware how easily my life could so completely and utterly fall apart.

It's almost like all this industry consolidation wasn't a good thing...

Weren’t you guys on Accelbyte? Just not a good experience?

Start to finish

So glad I bought this thing and finally could go through my surplus Commodore/MOS ICs

Man, this board took WAY longer to fix than I expected, but it’s alive!

Losing them hurts so much. I really don’t know if I can actually get through this.

Losing these two in the span of five weeks is the most difficult thing I’ve ever experienced. I felt like I was making emotional progress with everything, and losing Eevee today just tore the wound open, deeper than before.

In the span of two months we lost both of our dogs. We said goodbye to Eevee today. She was my best friend, and I’ll never forget her. This has been the hardest year of my life, and I don’t know if I’ll ever feel normal again.

Fuck cancer.

They know the vast majority of Unity devs won't actually move on, because their studio, pipelines, staff, etc are entrenched in the Unity Ecosystem. People will complain on the internet, they may backpedal a little, but in the end nothing will really change, and we'll be doing this again in a year.

I don't understand why people are surprised by Unity. They've had a pattern of this behavior for a while now. They're a publicly traded company beholden to the shareholders and board. They don't have your best interests at heart, & they never will. This is late stage capitalism at work.

“It's a powerful absence that never vanishes entirely, but at the same time we'd never wish that we didn't make the choice to share our hearts in the first place. We regret how it ends, nothing else.”

I found that talking about it really did help though; more than I expected. I’m here if you ever need it. An old coworker of mine had sent me a message when he heard the news, and I honestly found it helpful:

To be honest with you, even after a month it’s still hard. I’m at a point where 90% of the time I can look back at those memories and just be happy - where I can see a picture of him and not lose it; but every now and then I see one that just completely triggers me and reminds me how much I miss him

We actually did the same thing, because we wanted to make sure we never forgot anything. It also made me realize how weirdly lucky we are that cell phone cameras actually became “a thing” - we have so many pictures and videos all through their lives that allow us to preserve those memories.

I'm sorry, Ashley. We lost one of ours (14) to cancer a month ago, and our other (12, Chiweenie) was diagnosed with liver cancer that's already metastasized a couple weeks after :(

It's so incredibly tough and painful. I try to focus on all the amazing memories, but healing is definitely a process

Never forget how effortlessly people will throw you away

Hm. Wonder what I’m up to!? #amiga

I’ve got a bunch of invites if you need more. Just msg me on slack

Starfield's awful UI will probably be enough to get me to shelf this game

Taking a hollow 'stand' by continuing to use the platform but making the occasional "Twitter/X is awful" still gives him everything he wants.

Closing out my Twitter account. Elon's a megalomaniac, hateful twat, and that platform represents everything awful about social media. Continuing to engage there is only helping him (by making it more attractive to advertisers). It's not going to get better. It's time to move on.

I am so happy

I love cottage cheese and chilli crunch
