A four panel comic strip. An anthropomorphic wolf man runs into an office where three others are working at their desks. He says, "The fire marshal is coming for annual inspections!" In the next panel, a seated wolf is playing with a remote control airplane, and a smoke detector with an open battery compartment is mounted on the wall above him. The first wolf says "Put that 9 volt back in the smoke detector!" In the third panel, an anthropomorphic dog holds a power strip while standing next to a sculpture comprised of multiple power strips. The first wolf says "Hide your..."Daisy Chain Power Strip" sculpture!?" In the fourth panel, a bear proudly displays his t-shirt which reads "I love storing combustibles around radiators." The first wolf, in exasperation, yells "CHANGE YOUR SHIRT!"

if you saw I, III, Liberation, Origins, Odyssey, and Shadows come and go then, as good a pitch as it is, I think this is just something you say to instantly express your disappointment in the concept behind a report but there are external factors to it keeping you from these games

lots of folks on socials saying the cancelled Assassin's Creed game *would* have been their first AC and *would* have been the thing that got them (back) into AC and I just don't think that that's true at all?

beyond excited to officially join the VGBees lineup this week!! love the knowledgeable and salient but also very dumb (compliment) conversations John and Niki (and Jordo!) facilitate. looking forward to bringing my usual indie propaganda to a new-ish audience (next week) (I've been nolifing Digimon)

John E Warren 🤠🐝♿️ @floppyadult.com · 7d

I feel like the thing I always find myself thinking when ppl are talking about "oh the gaming audience is awful" is that, like... i'm not sure i believe that so much as I believe that any unmoderated space will inevitably surface the most toxic people (who drive away more-reasonable ones)

got no real addition to the indie game press conversation other than that it sucks, and I can't promise to cover anything, but I'm always looking for cool, weird, underground indies to cover on my news shifts at Rock Paper Shotgun!

two different monitors! it's also sometimes accompanied by audio stuttering or freezing so I feel I've ruled them out. seems most likely this GPU has finally kicked the bucket but I'll try what you said here and get all the info I can before moving forward. thank you!!

this happens a lot more with intensive use, like running a game on high, but it's also happened while I'm just sitting around watching YouTube or something. as far as I can tell there's no indication (stuttering, heat, excessive noise, etc) of stress on the GPU or that it's going to happen

Lotus 🤎🧡🤍🩷❤️ @lotusloveslotus.bsky.social · 7d

at a loss and the internet doesn't work anymore so asking here: been getting this weird GPU crash lately, usually when playing games. everything up to date, clean installs. cleaned PC, reseated GPU and RAM. screen fills with this pattern and strobes before blackscreening and refreshing to normal

Bumping this! I'm still searching for localizers for the following below. If that's you, or if you know someone who it fits, please reach out! This is a paid, short term, fully remote opportunity, though you must be in Ontario due to grant restrictions.

Count Doracula 🎃 @heyitsdora.com · Aug 21

Hey game dev! Looking for Ontario-based localization partners (either a company or individuals) for:
- French
- German
- Japanese
- Simplified Chinese
- Spanish

These do not all have to be done by the same person. Must be comfortable working with queer themes/pronouns and complex narratives! Thanks
