"So it means a lot that we have the opportunity to have a microphone to speak into. If you have a microphone, you better be using it right now. We don't want to be a band that has looked back and says, 'Oh, we didn't do our part.' "

Super pleased with progress from this past weekend on rolling my own drag-and-drop system for Godot version of MewnBase, gonna feel so nice and responsive with snappy bouncy anims. Next step: combining and splitting stacks. #ui #godot #indiegames

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

Almost every time I'm unpatching/repatching my synth while listening to it... I think of the scene in 2001 A Space Odyssey where HAL 9000 is singing "Daisy" as Dave slowly pulls his memory chips out 😅😭

Eurorack modular synthesizer viewed up close at an angle, huge mess of patch cable / wires in lots of diff colors all over the place connecting things together. My poor snake plant in the background that desperately needs to be repotted.Shot from 2001 A Space Odyssey where Dave is in his space suit, floating inside HAL 9000's logic center room, ejecting HAL's memory modules one at a time, while HAL sings the song "Daisy" which becomes slowly more and more distorted.

Oy, that it's so easy to build out menus in #Godot - it's been fun to make tools and debug menus for MewnBase to help with testing and for easily reviewing data resources in one place. Always wanted an item menu kinda like this for creative mode etc - way nicer than typing in console commands.

Shows their icon, internal id, localized/translated displayed name - and can view what ingredients are needed for each crafting recipe.
