went to great effort to very subtly animate this so people would be fooled into thinking it was just a stationary image tricking the eyes, can you tell that it's really moving or did I succeed in making it appear as if it's completely static and just causing an optical illusion

So, where am I? I made this awkward button connected to my temporary server. When pressed a voice says "Someone wants your attention" in my office. Currently used when dinner is ready so my wife doesn't yell across the apartment.

And that's only the things I can remember. It's always a case of I have to wait until I get the time to actually work on it, before I can make any changes/updates.

I now immediately get to experience what happens when you buy a game from a big chain online, and not going in the store. After inspecting it, I'm pretty sure the game was opened.

But, I gotta make sure. This is the first physical Switch 2 game I've purchased. Do they come with protective stickers?

Alright. This is bs. I ordered Donkey Kong online and the order arrived last. I knew there was going to be BS with this... When it arrived a day late the packaging was part way open.

I'm not trying to get my Switch 2 banned on the first game.

Alright, weird question. Where can I get doo-doo brown recycled filament?

I know when y'all mix all the colors together that's what you get. I know some of y'all throw all your failed prints in to a grinder and remake filament spooks.

... So... Who got some of that?

Could I have finished my game in the 4 hours that I walked away? Maybe... I was stressing too hard and _not_ enjoying what I was producing.

Answered that _real_ fast. Can't buy them new, but there are several for sale in my neighborhood, used. They appear to be 50" at the smallest.

Now I'm curious why they aren't smaller.
