Happy Winter Burrow Release Day Eve to all who celebrate 👀🐭✨ (p.s. ONE MORE SLEEP!!!)

Last week was my last week at Iron Gate - After three years working on Valheim, it's time to start looking for new adventures elsewhere. If you know someone looking for a kickass Tech Artist/Programmer, hit me up. Happy to work either remote, or on-site in Stockholm. Portfolio's at dahnberg.se

Hello #PortfolioDay! I'm a technical artist currently looking for work. I am experienced with: ✨Shaders (Unreal / HLSL) 💥 VFX (Niagara) 💾 Optimisation 🛠️ Tooling (Blueprints and a little Python 🐍) Currently learning Houdini and aiming to update my portfolio, but here's some of my current work 🌟

If only there was an unnecessary technology of highly dubious ethics, that requires vasts about of water, that could be banned instead 🤔

Shouting about time drop workouts as they've made working out soooo much easier for me!!! I always struggled with the next set (can I do this again?!?!?), but knowing the time has dropped makes it so much easier. ✨

As of a week ago I was unfortunately affected by restructuring efforts at BLE. I am now actively looking for freelance/remote fulltime and contract work! If you need a stylized 3D environment artist who's excited to make cool things please send me a DM 🙂 Please Share 💖 www.artstation.com/ashleyw

I finally finished this little project a few days ago! ✨ I was inspired by the early watercolour pokemon art by Ken Sugimori. It's a combination of a standard and post-process material. I have a whole post up now too: www.artstation.com/artwork/wr93Zg 😊

being an indie bookseller in the helltimes has felt both very stable and very stabilizing, and part of me wishes everyone could be on my side of the counter for a little while, because I think it would help some of you be a little less cynical and doomy right now. so here is my VERY anecdotal data:

Genuinely couldn't believe this figure until I saw the Financial Times confirm it using Meta's own financial reporting data For THIS $100 billion is genuinely the kind of money you could "do the impossible" with. Crack nuclear fusion. HIV vaccine. Universal flu vaccine And they spent it on this

“In order to shoot off one email per week for a year, ChatGPT would use up 27 liters of water, or about one-and-a-half jugs… that means if one in 10 U.S. residents—16 million people—asked ChatGPT to write an email a week, it’d cost more than 435 million liters of water.”
