Win32 Is The Only Stable ABI on Linux

We're still using shared libraries in 2025 where programs just have to pray the installed version might be compatible. It's literally more reasonable to target win32 to have a better shot at your cross-platform program running on Linux.

Reminder that in 1997, Mindscape (publisher of Lego Island) fired the whole staff to avoid paying everyone the bonuses and royalties they were contractually owed.

Lego Island went on to be one of the biggest Lego games ever.

There is no job security in the games industry. And that needs to change.

10 years in the future we're still going to be posting about which Proton version to use to maybe possibly run games that only support Windows while normal users complain about how Linux has no native applications that they can just click install on and use

It's so awesome that Epic is attempting to take over the game development sphere with Unreal and cannot be bothered to properly support git or at least update their version of the Perforce API for Linux in the engine from 2018.1. Making games for Linux on Linux is an uphill battle

the coolest part about fab is how the ue plugin is an empty placeholder even in 5.5 preview

Second to last, Cinder

Nearly as tall as Kaida but not nearly as scary, more so charming an alluring to her own personal gain

Those that are at a table with her must be careful, it's not just her but her briefcase too

The problem with trying to merge my professional and unhinged accounts on bluesky is I don’t know what level of inappropriate I can get with my robotfucker tendencies before I inevitably weird some of you out

I’m seeing people smugly tell artists that deleting their twitter accounts is an overreaction and they shouldn’t jump to Bluesky over one update.

Personally, as someone who needs Twitter to promote his art, I think artists are well within their right to jump ship.

Welcome This is my blog where I share knowledge that I find useful for software development, primarily within Unreal Engine. I want this to be an open reference for both the early “gotchas” and obscure parts ...

I am Northstar and I am working on a game in Unreal Engine. While I do not post dev logs for that game at the moment, I recently started a blog at dev.northstarhana.com where I publish Unreal-related articles from my experience in C++. I also do digital art.
