Hans continues to fall down the Die Hard advent calendar. The most important day is not the 25th this year, but the 9th!

THE CROWDFUNDER IS LIVE!!!

If Hans were a Level 10 Fury Berserker with Bounder his jump distance would be 10, a big aid in reducing fall dmg!
Hans continues to fall down the Die Hard advent calendar. His hand points to 10.

Years ago, I did an impromptu field recording at Gasworks Park, striking and bowing large metals in this defunct power plant. Finally edited it into a FREE sample library! (requires full version of #Kontakt 6)

Link below – enjoy, and Happy Holidays!

We could have this. This could be us but instead: touchscreens.

Please remind me again what the recycle rate for fossil fuels is

I think nearly all the ram i have put into the 5 or so PCs ive built was crucial. What a silly move
tomwarren.co.uk Tom Warren @tomwarren.co.uk · 7d
Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead. It’s already getting hard to build an affordable PC, and the exit of the longstanding provider of consumer memory is going to make that even more challenging www.theverge.com/news/837594/...

Lots of friends I know are out of work. They are all super skilled, experienced, empathetic, hardworking, and have lots of titles to their names. They're people I would never ever think would have trouble finding work. The only thing separating the people working right now and those not is luck.

I can't emphasize this enough: If you're struggling to find work in games, you're not the only one and please don't blame yourself. The horrible state of the industry is unprecedented. The crash in the 80s and the recession in the late 2000s weren't as rough as this. There are so few opportunities.

i’m setting you free. i’m releasing you from the discourse
4 panel comic Panel 1: Red Guy looking way way too happy yells “Hey Guys! Is Die Hard a Christmas movie?” Blue Guy next to him calmly says “Shhh” Panel 2: Blue Guy tenderly puts his arms around Red Guy and says “You don’t have to do this” Panel 3: Blue Guy still holds Red Guy tightly and repeats “You don’t have to do this every year”. Red Guy begins to break. Panel 4: Red Guy dissolves into Blue Guy’s embrace, sobbing. He finally feels the weight of Christmas Discourse lifting from his shoulders. He is finally free.

Tapping the sign again
Page from BRAINS First Panel: "An AI has no sense of anything. No context. No experience." Illustration of a little pink frog (he's playing a blood cell in this comic, though, which is why he's pink) Second panel: "It cannot touch" the pink frog bends down to pick a flower Third panel: "It cannot smell" 'sniff sniff' the frog smells the flower Fourth panel: "It cannot breathe" (the frog is now dark blue with bright pink lungs visible, as though the frog has been imaged in some way) Fifth panel: "It cannot think" (the frogs brain is now visible, similarly to the lungs in the previous panel) Sixth panel: "It cannot be" the frog is floating and his cute lil butt is visible Seventh panel: "*Stares directly at camera*" the pink frog stares directly at camera Eight panel: "It cannot be... YOU"
