I feel like someone must have done this terrible #linguistics joke before, but I've never actually seen it.

The story for my new game is about a going on an epic quest to find some Pumpernickel bread for an ailing grandfather. There is no "big bad", it's just a journey of discovery and exploration (with Diablo II style combat and looting).

#ProjectWeirdLittleGuy update for #ScreenshotSaturday added a second layer of world generation so I can render lower fidelity tiles out into the very far distance. Now I am back to having to work out more of the high level game design

Please don’t come.
Cancel your trip and donate the money to the Hawaii Community Foundation Maui Strong Fund instead.
I always get friends telling me I should submit talks to things but then I never feel like I have actual content for presentations? I work really well in dialogue, answering questions, and I know lots of things but I'm not the expert that should be talking, it's not my stuff to present, and I do a lot of weird and innovative stuff but that's my work, I've done those ideas and usually they don't have something useful for the audience to take away so it just feels like bragging, or maybe an ad, you could actually just see the weird stuff by being audience to the work.
I'm always happy to teach but I always assume my peers are my peers, I'm just using the same tools they are.

TIL this is something that exists:
A choose-your-own-adventure rock musical where the songs and plot adapt to your choices mid-scene.

Stop using Brave Browser.
Seriously.

If someone recommends Brave to you, you should ignore them, because they are wrong. Brave Browser is a mess of a software project, and the company building it is even worse.
Saturday's Stockholm Pride march was also super fun and I managed to walk the whole distance this year!

"I have killed my affection for Harry Potter. I have buried it. I am refusing to allow this series space in my life. Trans people are worth more than Rowling is. They are worth more than Rowling’s world. They are worth opening and suturing a wound, and moving past a children’s story. Real people are harmed by Rowling’s rhetoric, and giving her stories more space in our cultural consciousness is harmful to one of the most marginalized groups of people in the world."

i don't get mansplained to nearly as much on bluesky, and that's not because bluesky stumbled on some kind of magical feminist UI design, it's because mastodon is dominated by FOSS nerds, who have a terrible culture

There will sadly never be a better software name than Nero Burning ROM.
