If your software requires an ever-expanding array of data centers to run, you fucked up. You're a bad engineer. You should be embarrassed. People should stop giving money to you until you learn to do things efficiently.

We have a chance of removing the Online Safety Act!

The artists is vulnerable, they take the risk, they are exposing themselves to the world, the organisation risks nothing, and acts to protect only themselves.
See here a reflection of our entire industry.
It's time to break the silence on the 1.7 release of #VNyan

Do you have a Discord server that you wanted to start or revamp, and you don't know where to start? I can help.

"Goto your Steam™ library Leave a review for a smaller game you like Now tell me what it was" There's a very crudely drawn Steam logo in the middle. In the bottom right, there's an even crudely-er drawn frog, and the sideways text reads "I am a graphic design terrorist"
With regards to that last repost, reviews can mean a lot to smaller developers, so I'm gonna put out a little call to action. Everyone following me? DO THIS NOW! I'm asking for replies so more folks pick this up, and continue it. Please take this graphic and ask your followers to do the same!
Former Syracuse basketball player to be deported after more than a month in ICE custody
26 years old from South Sudan. He has been in the US since age 13, when he was recruited to the country for basketball.
Now being discarded as if he was human refuse.
Shame on Syracuse for not intervening.

Game composers! Fancy joining a Discord with fellow musicians and gamedevs? We've got people cooking up cool stuff, and feedback is always top notch! #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio #vgm #composer
discord.gg/3QWC2j4PG
one thing about any time people say 'vibecession' that doesn't take into account factors that have nothing to do with online posting and is very relevant to 'Kitchen Table Issues' is the skyrocketing cost of specifically childcare, the teetering precarity of the industry, and losing benefits for it
AND WE'RE LIVE! Hit the link on my pfp for some reading time!
Gonna have a late start - was out and about this morning and the errands took longer than expected. Be on as soon as I can, I'll post accordingly!
People who deny the existence of dragons are often eaten by dragons. From within.
To tell you how much other sites hate that this exists. When I searched for them, I got an ad for TurboTax appearing RIGHT before the search results.
When I went to their site, my coupon extensions were all "No discount here, but this OTHER tax site has..."
And now I'm getting ads for tax sites.
Gonna cancel stream tonight. Hate to have two off-days on the week back, but I've been dealing with a headache all day and it's left me feeling exhausted and a touch dazed.
I'll find a way to make it up to y'all, I promise. See you Saturday!
And there it is, goddamn ✨
Thank you all so so much for being here and checking out my silly lil doodles. I want to make another starter pack, for disabled artists this time, maybe an art raffle if I can get my shit together lol, but genuinely thank you
If anyone wants in on said pack let me know✨
Once again, it feels very strange to be making videogames with all this insane stuff is going on. Selfishly, I'd like world peace, not just for everyone else, but so that I can just, you know, enjoy my day and make nice things for nice people.
I hate having to do the "look, they're normal just like us" post, but sometimes you have to do that when American propaganda tries to convince everyone Iranians are "animals".
Front page of the trifold going over the basics, D&D, APs and VTTs
Back page of the pamphlet going over dice and some other game recommendations

I would be a lot more into the Artemis II mission if I wasn't far more worried for a further 90 million people about to be obliterated by a madman tomorrow by the very same nation that made the capsule. Really spoils the amazement, not going to lie.
Please note that, here in Texas and in other red states, they're making it law that merely wearing clothes that those in power believe are the wrong gender for you is pornographic.
The ban is already in effect.
