I can't believe I'm saying this, but after 10 years on #firefox, all the AI bullshit #mozilla is adding recently is making me look into alternatives. Anyone got some recommendations?

Man, to a #valve_index owner, the announcement of #steamframe is such a disappointment. Compared to the Index, the tracking (no lighthouses even as an option, really??), controller design (all they had to do is change the button layout and leave the rest of knuckles alone), and speakers look […]

Turns out that despite my unsucessful previous attempts, with quite some fiddling, you can in fact get #rekordbox running on #linux through #wine. It's janky af, has high audio latency and doesn't detect the hardware controllers, but for quick library management it should be usable.

Given how much we overscoped on complexity of our tax collection game, these are surprisingly decent #ludumdare58 results.

Seems like our #ludumdare58 game is giving our game designer quite a head scratcher. He's still figuring new things out and tweaking the numbers 3 days after the end of the jam.

It's interesting to see how despite only 300 fewer entries in #ludumdare58 than in #ludumdare57, the homepage feed felt a lot more dead than what I'm used to from previous iterations of the jam.

Tomorrow's plan is a ton of balancing and further simulation of environment changes based on the economy.

I seem to be going through the "porting over all the common VFX shaders" phase of learning a new engine or picking up an old one again. Wouldn't recommend if you're engine hopping for learning purposes.

Turns out that a short sidequest into #embedded dev is a good way of getting more hands on understanding of pointers.
At least as long as you avoid #arduino's software ecosystem. I worked with Arduino for years and I don't think I had to ever use a pointer, meanwhile #espidf basically forces […]
