Oh, so it’s not just happening in France; it’s international-level gaslighting. People who couldn't care less about what happens after they're gone are lucky to have a media ecosystem that pays no heed to borders and facts—I’m actually a bit jealous.
Simon Evans@drsimevans.carbonbrief.org · 2d ago🧵Right-leaning newspapers are trying to blame Europe's raging wildfires on everything EXCEPT fossil fuels 1. The Wall Street Journal Frontpage story: "Greece fights wildfires as Europe crisis spreads" WSJ editorial: "How green policies fuel fires in Europe"
I definitely reached the "my game sucks" and "I am a terrible game designer" phase of making Metropolis. I had to stop myself from deleting it all out of frustration last night. Time to go read a book or disconnect for a bit.
People stare at me like I’m insane, but I think it’s perfectly fine for a middle aged homosexual to dote lavishly over his elderly dog in public.
"Cats don't actually love you" I'm being hounded 24/7 by two fluffy creatures who want nothing more but to play and snuggle, fuck off. They complain when I don't take naps because they want to have sleepy time with me around in the bedroom.
It seems I will never stop making shaders that work on desktop and then NaN on iOS (register precision differences)
I've been reverse-engineering / porting Super Mario Bros. to C++ to understand how it works on the inside! I guess this looks exactly like an emulator but it's not, the "RAM" is recreated from internal state
AppleTV testing. Run from Xcode in my office. Run to media room to see result. Been working all day on the AppleTV Remote. Not the best game controller.
Somehow I went for a nap, and somehow Bella also went for a nap. And somehow when we woke she was under my arm. We both assume aliens were involved.
This is one of the coolest and most unique entries in this year’s Demo Days. I want to see folks create absolute bangers and share it with the world
TNB Games@tnbgames.bsky.social · 5d agoLassen's Loop is officially part of Demo Days from @sixoneindie.com! 🎶 Build full-length songs from 8-sec clip cards made by real, credited musicians, watch them come alive with Y2K-inspired themes & visualizers, export every track as an MP3, yours to keep forever.
I added tvOS as a target for Merropplis. So now you can play the game completely on your AppleTV. In truth this is to get my wife to test it. But it looks awesome!
Well that was an episode and a half. Star Trek Strange New Worlds season 4 episode 2.
A new #science of #chess post is up on my Lichess blog! This time I'm unpacking what we know about what makes some chess moves seem beautiful to us-enjoy! #PsychSciSky #games
Science of Chess: Looking for Beauty on the Chessboard
Chess isn't just about rating points, accuracy, and centipawn loss, but how do we assess more subjective qualities of the game?

C'mon people. I sweat about accidentally putting the wrong release dates on my lecture slides with movie clips. A 100% real quote: "Oh, sorry gang, I know that says 1919, but Defending Your Life came out in 1991."
Thinking about the Neuromancer and Blade Runner 2099 trailers. The Neuromancer trailer feels like Blade Runner. The “lonely city” feeling and stark silhouettes. The 2099 trailer feels like … I’m not sure what. Not Blade Runner. (any trailer can be made to feel anyway, both shows look awesome)
The hardest part of indie game dev is that you do, eventually, need to release the game.
So we've got the Bladerunner show in November and the Neuromancer show in January. Of course, I love it, but I hope the shows don't eat each others ratings and lead to cancellations. I really wish these had been a year apart.
I am the same age as Star Trek. Somehow that makes me awesome. I don't make the rules.

Complete rough play through of the first quest works! Dubious decisions can now be made (you can lie about who did it). SO MANY BUGS. But also, this is awesome. It's fun!
"Several former federal US space officials told the Guardian they doubt the orbital datacenters are feasible. But putting millions of additional satellites into orbit would create a significant environmental risk, said Steve Volz, the former head of the Noaa satellite office."

The real shame is that we had a whole darn IMAX theater here for a few years until its owner sued IMAX. I wonder if it’s still there and empty? Seems like a good time to re open.
Cannery Row IMAX theater shuttered as owner sues partner.
Hopes were high for Cannery Row’s IMAX Theatre when Monterey Mayor Chuck Della Sala cut the ribbon on the nearly $8 million big-format movie house in 2008.
