French Breton living in Colorado. (he/him) Founding partner and lead developer at Initial Capacity Architecture is not incompatible with XP. Really like modern static type systems (F#, Elm, Dart, Kotlin, Swift…). Also into cycling, climbing and cheese.
I use Kagi's (@kagi.com) Quick Answer quite a bit when I have questions about the gameplay of Grim Dawn (@crategrimdawn.bsky.social). It's really good at pulling the right data from the Crate forums + Reddit + Steam community. Awesome when you keep fine tuning your build (my favorite past time).
Neat
Brandon DeRosier@bdero.bsky.social · last wk.Everything in this video is real-time 3D rendered in Flutter. No forks, no platform views! Rendering, physics, gaussian splats, DICOM volumes, accessible scenes, embedded widgets, hot reload for every asset, instanced prefabs with arbitrary overrides, and much more. Get started at fscene.dev
That’s not really an expression in French though.

Starbucks employees spelled my partner’s name correctly. We are very confused. Where is the creativity??
Love how in Grimdawn by @crategrimdawn.bsky.social there are references to Menhir. Where I'm from Menhir, in Breton language, means standing stone, which we also call Megalith. Where I grew up we had a bunch of those. Here is one in my home town - www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?...

Here is some excellent music from the 90s. If you didn't know about Manu Chao before his solo career, you *have* to listen to Mano Negra. I was listening to a Spotify radio for a song I chose, I really like how they randomly intersperse this and it totally works! www.youtube.com/watch?v=EE7U...

Pop OS upgrade, did upgrade the kernel without setting up the Nvidia kernel driver, rebooted to an endlessly trying to start Cosmic greeter... Well I guess I learned a few things on tracking down the issue and solving it on the TTY while talking to Claude on the phone.

Riding bikes is 10X more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities. And that’s just the climate emissions. Doesn’t include the massive public & personal cost difference, the air & noise pollution difference, the massive space difference, etc, etc…Via @theconversation.bsky.social

Spotify has the perfect example of a UI that abuses buttons that are just icons without labels, buttons that are tabs but don't look like tabs... Finding what I want to do in it is a nightmare.
What an unbelievable launch day! Both Grim Dawn and Fangs of Asterkarn are in the Top 5 global bestsellers on Steam! Our team worked incredibly hard on this expansion, and seeing this response means everything. Thank you to our community for taking this 10-year journey with us!

game devs: what are the myths that a lot of players of games think are true about making games that are completely untrue? If you could snap your fingers and they suddenly all knew the truth about it what would it be?
That you can snap your fingers and *poof* it's multiplayer/co-op.
