New Airbender film: great fun, could have done without Taika Waititi tbh
AI event flyers are ruining my life cause I didn't know I had so many friends with bad taste
In somewhat typical fashion, Google have changed how Back handling works in the newest Android SDK but have not, predictably, made the new way usable from the NDK. Hopefully they will by the time the opt out stops working but I ain’t holding my breath tbh
I can’t really quantify or explain this in any way but if the Earthsea books had a soundtrack it’d be by Johnny Flynn
Our first home grown tomatoes of the year (actually ever) and they’re pretty good!
Rolled credits on The Mermaid Mask. Loved it! Loved Tangle Tower but this one is even better.
Looking forward to Trans Pride this weekend! I hope I do NOT see pals there because the crowd is so utterly massive it's impossible for us to spot each other (but if I do see pals there I will be delighted obvs)

Ah man I loved Sam Neill. Such a loss. Wilderpeople is probably my single favourite film and it’s in a large part thanks to him. I hope his pigs will be ok
Gonna bring back my old "joel tries to learn shaders" thread from the other place cos I am, once again, trying to learn shaders. My end goal is to have some kind of 2d approximation of a nice water shader, think the ocean in Wind Waker or something. Feedback/advice *very* welcome
