Fuck generative AI and all the game developers using it, btw

I finally traded in my iPhone 12, haven’t felt compelled to upgrade at any point but the carrier promotion was solid and I was tired of Lightning cables. Five generations seems to be a nice sweet spot for feeling like a worthwhile upgrade.

Democrats Sick Of Being Blamed For Cowardice On Issues They Actually Just Don’t Care About WASHINGTON—Having thus far caved on eliminating the filibuster, advancing an adequate climate change agenda, and protecting voting rights, congressional Democrats told reporters Wednesday they were si...

Democrats Sick Of Being Blamed For Cowardice On Issues They Actually Just Don’t Care About

*impressed*

The stock pickups were unbelievably dark, practically no high end at all. On a 7 especially, you need good high end to cut through and keep things clear. This just sounded like mud.

It plays way better than it has any right to. The stock active pickups are truly awful, I swapped in a set of Duncan JB/Jazz Rails. And restringing it threatened to drive me to madness, but maybe it gets easier.

“I see one is missing a rear wing, did they make contact into T1? I’m concerned the papaya rules were not respected by their previous drivers.”

As I'm coming up on 1000 hours on Hitman World of Assassination, I could really use a new game with the same general vibe. Meaning it's not overly dependent on precision or reaction times, more planning oriented. But not an outright puzzle game. Accepting suggestions.

Well. Parenthood is quite the new adventure I’ve inflicted upon myself.

Should probably clarify I am not the one admitted to said hospital room.

I am currently fascinated by how every single light in this hospital room (5 by my count) brings its own unique flavor of unpleasant depression.

Dude what is happening with Deus Ex, i am so out of this loop

I’m probably going to buy a new iPhone soon, but I hate that I’m doing it. IMO Apple has made nearly everything about the platform and OS worse to use, and fallen far behind Android’s other capabilities. But I see no way to get an Android without welding my data to Google and I just won’t do it.

What was the original purpose of the home grown CRT?

Always found it mind boggling that there were Indians dumb enough to think this fucker would be good for them, or that we’d be classed among the “good immigrants” as if they have any such concept.

You’re a fuckin douchebag Hamid

Awesome to see GN get over this bullshit abuse by the entirely ethics-free assholes at @bloomberg.com

This post is my first bsky bookmark.

Ten Years of D3D12 For those of us that have been using it from the start, it can be hard to believe that Direct3D 12 has been around for nearly ten years now. Windows 10 was released on July 29th 2015, and D3D12 has be...

I've got a new blog post for all of you fine folks! It runs through the additions to D3D12 since it was released, and finishes up with some of the things that have changed for me personally in my code.

(And yes it's really been 10 years 👴).

I had to do it

An EVH 5150 III EL34 50W guitar tube amp sitting on top of the black Orange cabinet described in the post.

I wasn’t planning on becoming an Orange fanboy, but this cab is thunder. Kinda makes a mockery of my Marshall 1960 actually. It’s the PPC 212 V, which is loaded with a pair of Celestion *Neo* Creambacks and a very relaxed 44 lbs of total weight.

Me driving a white Caterham Seven race car, going wheel-to-wheel with another Caterham on the track.

Rec Room was fun, but had to lay off a lot of folks, so I am looking for the next opportunity.

If you are looking for a senior graphics coder to solve all your rendering problems on any platform, either remote or in the Seattle area, I'd love to hear from you.

Picture is purely for attention.

OneDrive is such a fucking piece of shit my god

Creative? Okay, sure. Meaningful, impactful, convincing to voters, visible, helpful to research? Pretty much no. Very classic Democrat work, self serving pity party with no substance.

Really happy to see this starting to spread in our industry, hope there’s more to come! hard-drive.net/hd/video-gam...

The slow realization that Pokémon is much, much bigger today than it ever was in my childhood is absolutely baffling. We considered a phenomenon 20 years ago. I like it, but how strange.

Our PR firm brought one of these to us, and I won’t name names but I did a little reading and woof. The players know they’re paid spots and the reception is icy bordering on hostile. We declined the spot.
