If @bsky.app (and any other that follows the "phone/mobile" UI) actually cared about their plataform being useful and comfortable: Here's my take on what it could alctually look like. Do we really need -THAT MUCH- empty dead space? really? And don't get me started on the fucking gallery view...sigh
just finished my tribute to marcille, so excited for the second season coming out soon :) #dungeonmeshi #deliciousindungeon
Oh right, I decided to re-write my "Animation Actor System" UE Plugin a while back. And instead of putting it on Fab or some other Marketplace like V1 of the Plugin was, it is now freely available on Github.
To this day the best plugin for Rider and the first thing I add on every new installation
Godot is banning almost all use cases for AI code contributions. www.gamedeveloper.com/business/god...
The thing about social media age restrictions is that it treats today’s internet as an inevitability we all just have to deal with. The internet (and the WORLD) wasn’t like this until like four dudes were allowed to own & monetize as much tech real estate as they wanted. Fix THAT problem.
Going to the store at 5pm (I forgot the garlic)

Do. Not. Use. Fucking. Sticker. Mule.
Aleksandra Vaca@transiticsnews.com · last mo.1. On Tuesday and with Trump's backing, Sticker Mule CEO Anthony Constantino won a competitive New York House primary—and likely a seat in Congress—after running on "aggressively detransitioning America." His extreme rhetoric must be a warning to us all.
We don't take photos of each other there very often, but just look at these wonderful little babies 🥺

Chris Person@papapishu.bsky.social · last mo.For @aftermath.site, I reviewed the Steam Machine. It costs $1049 base. It is beautifully designed. It might be one of the most important computers ever made, launched at the worst time imaginable. aftermath.site/steam-machin...

This was a flippant response as many studios have fake titles, but I worked a few years in Crystal Dynamics’ CDC engine on Deus Ex: HR and a key component was the ability to integrate temp asset files before you’d even made them. Placeholder workflows are in CD’s DNA. Totally inexcusable.
“Experience Director” is an AI-generated title that does not exist at real game development studios.
Game Informer@gameinformer.com · 2mo agoWe asked the Crystal Dynamics team about its use of generative AI in developing Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis. Here’s what Jeff Adams, experience director on the game, had to say.

Someone in GW’s graphics design department is currently being yelled at then. Time will tell whether they’re being yelled at for using AI, not covering up the use of AI well enough, or making mistakes that look exactly like what people look for in AI. In 2026 it’s hard not to assume the 2nd one.
Remleiz - 40K Theories@remleiz.bsky.social · 2mo agoGod I hope the box art isn't Al. I know GW said they'd never use it, but the six fingers on that marine's hand isn't filling me with a lot of confidence...
just found out that u can pop out the script editor in Godot and that improves the UX like tenfold imo
