Amazon announcing a new Stargate show that isnโ€™t a reboot with Joseph Mullozi and Brad Wright working on it, couldnโ€™t ask for more. Be still my nerd heart.

If youโ€™re happy with Sony doing an external disc drive, just get a usb blueray drive for the steam box

There are nearly 3,000 demos in the Steam Next Fest, and with so many new games coming out getting lost in the flood is a real problem, especially for indie games

So here's your reminder, that if you play something cool, speak up and share it! Word of mouth is so damn important! ๐Ÿฅฐ

Hey, as one of the team this is wonderful feedback. Iโ€™ll see if we can get a Linux and Mac build uploaded.

Depends, if itโ€™s a live service game or something thatโ€™s being patched, then the latest patch or update could be worthy of a negative review. Other than that specific example, youโ€™re right, 100 hours should be a cut off

I was saying this to a colleague earlier. Mad props to team Cherry for this, but this line is going to make some people take the wrong idea and think they can go without project management tools rather than asking what team cherry did instead.

I voted for Labour to get rid of a local Tory. I had such high hope that we could have some basis of decency, just a smidge, but this is absolutely abhorent and goes completely against what the Uk is meant to be about. Giving in to the FARTs is embarrassing

Iโ€™ve cracked out my thousand sons again, but Iโ€™m realising I have so many spare marines Iโ€™m tempted to build another force

Thatโ€™s possible, but not to the layman. You could hire a VPS in another country, set that up as a wire guard/tailscale exit node and then just vpn into that. Route your traffic out through the VPS somewhere in Europe. Possible with a few hours setup, but needs technical work the above average person

The UK government's 'Sovereign AI Unit' has partnerships with 4 companies.

All are North American.
All are being sued for alleged copyright infringement.

It is beyond astonishing that this is who the government saw fit to partner with.

Getting the box, libre astartes, an weapon upgrade kit and some paint all for less than the retail price. Canโ€™t argue with that!

I respectfully disagree. I donโ€™t expect other autistics to act like NDs, but there is a middle ground. We canโ€™t just pretend that all of our behaviour is ok, we can be accidentally selfish. We should expect NDs to try and accommodate us, as we should try to find a way to work with other people.

Not at all, a lot of autistic people struggle even with other autistics, because those of us who learnt how to converse struggle when dealing with an autistic individual who hasnโ€™t put that training effort in and they dominate the conversation and show little interest in what you have to say.

100% AI, the yellow hue all ai has, as well as on the first one the floating mic and the very broken sound mixer

I had both diagnosed at 39. Hell of a trip to learn late, but 100% has been worth it. Good luck with meditation if you go that route and with the massive amounts of self reflection youโ€™ll do

Honestly close to how I would paint them, except red rather than blue because I canโ€™t get away from heresy colours
