The End of Windows 10 Support Is an E-Waste Disaster in the Making In an example of egregious planned obsolescence, as many as 400 million computers will soon hit the waste stream.

This is so disappointing. Some poor decisions at Microsoft.

EA sold to private investors for $55 billion
YouTube video by lilsimsie EA sold to private investors for $55 billion

Iโ€™m worried about what the purchase of EA will mean for the Sims and the future of the game industry in the U.S. in general. I think @lilsimsie.bsky.social really sums it up wellโ€ฆ

Abandoned Warehouse Level Design Block Out in UE5
YouTube video by Rosie Katz Abandoned Warehouse Level Design Block Out in UE5

Full timelapse of the abandoned warehouse level design block out is up on youtube! This time I did the music for it too. I kind of rushed myself with the music so it loops a lot, but itโ€™s nice to use all my own content this time :)

A lot of people talk about how cilantro tastes like soap to some people, but no one talks about how oregano tastes like pencil lead

Part 3 of the abandoned warehouse level blockout Iโ€™m working on. Its finally a warehouse! Iโ€™m also starting to improve how I record these videos to reduce my time editing out jerky camera moves. This one is also a bit longer than previous versions, so zone in and enjoy!

YouTube video by Rosie Katz Part 2: Abandoned Warehouse Level Design Blockout in UE5

Part 2 of my abandoned warehouse level design blockout. I realized as I was editing this how much jerkiness there is as I move the camera around, so I took extra time to edit out all the camera movements. It took way too long, but I hope you enjoy!
