After a week of loosing my mind I've finally got some basic racing AI implemented for the NPC karts for Stay In Your Lane

with context steering to keep them following the track and avoiding obstacles and a "patience" value that will encourage them to overtake when stuck behind each other

I think the black screen to the right is a NeXT station, what's Shawn holding? a telephone? Romero's got his wallet out, so I reckon they are ordering pizza.

Lithtech games are know for being tricky to run on modern system, so I picked Blood 2 The Chosen and made a fix compilation, putting all the required fixes together in a single package:

Say what you want about Microsoft’s AI “features” … the spam filter is great!

Note about Outlook’s spam filter having moved a spam message to quarantine. The message is from Microsoft and advertises new AI features in Outlook.

Really captured the 90s motif of sticking ads and all kinds of fucking weird distracting and spammy widgets everywhere.

Can barely use it unless you turn all that shit off.

How the fuck are you supposed to recommend windows 11 to anyone when the first thing it does on a new account is recommend you play Farming Simulator 2025? What the fuck.

I caught the PAX plague so, working from home today. Or another way to put it is I spent 5 days in the city and now my throat hurts. RIP. 🤒

Mark @deviousmalcontent.bsky.social · 12d

yes.

People complain about Windows all the time, but Adobe has the worst software and programming on the planet. It's not even close.

a window within a window: 3d view of a simplified 3d house, garage, green backyard, surrounding fence, outside backyard. user interface takes up the rest of the screen, contained in menus up the top of the screen and smaller windows with icons and a further out view of the house and yard.

I am convinced that 10x developers aren't real, or if they are they don't work well with other people. - how the heck do you get through your day with a large laundry list of things to accomplish without getting dragged into stakeholder meetings? Or having the scope of something change last minute?

Mark @deviousmalcontent.bsky.social · 26d

and I think an important aspect as well is to not hold onto ideas, currently when I get the time I wanna make a little networked Janga clone with Newton physics engine in C and just "see how it plays"...

There was a game dev meet up discord thing that me and Maddie joined, and I really like the vibe of it, I also like the idea of on a monthly basis trying to knockout little projects, /

Hmm... I don't agree with his "GitHub banning policy",

And there's a debugger that supports breakpoints, hold on, this could be a game changer...

Or at least it was slow to load in previous versions, it is now quite performant on this system.

I wonder if my hatred for PowerShell stems from the fact that I have only ever written in it with notepad, there is an IDE for it (called ISE), but it takes forever to load so I've never made use of it...
