Nearly done on this Nova, a few bits of cleanup left. #battletech #minipainting

A bit more work done over lunch. Cockpit in, some edge highlights, and a bit of non metallic metal. #battletech

Wip: Testing out my new gradient techniques on a colour other than white. Having a zenithal prime really worked against me, so I've got a bit of gloss from the washes I used to darken it down. #battletech

No no no Simon, it was the super duper hacker DDOS attack and not the frail crumbling website we built by copy-pasting code we don't understand from an engine trained on stack overflow!

Bsky is vobe coded

How's that working out for ya?

This site is like Maddox reviewing children's drawings but for the games industry.

Yeah, at least per round. I could apply to one, fail and apply to the other at a later date. Not sure how it would sync up but worst case another year.

I pitched this to the old UKGF 3 years ago, but I made the pitch literally the day I was moving house (and with a much earlier prototype) so it wasn't my best work. Sadly without feedback I can't know why that pitch failed and what they'd have liked to see.

For the Starter fund I would be looking at the Head Start Pathway, and for the prototype I guess I would be looking at the lesser £50k pitch. I guess both are going to get absolutely hammered with applications, but maybe the prototype fund less so?

Ok, UK games industry chums, help! Do I apply for the Prototype fund or the Starter fund?

If your video game stores back-end and documentation is worse than Steam's, you should probably reconsider your attempt to compete with them. 🫣

Salvage the Excess, by Cyanotic from the album Tech Noir

I didn't think to save it, it was mixed in to one of those long Youtube videos of middling industrial electro.

But may I offer you some Cyanotic? cyanotic.bandcamp.com/track/salvag...

War drums from my laundry machine YouTube video by DjGomita Paredes

My favourite genre.

I just took my headphones off whilst listing to some new industrial music because I had to check it wasn't my washing machine malfunctioning.

This shakey phone video did so unbelievably well on Reddit. 😵

Orban saying '“We will serve our country and the Hungarian nation from the opposition,” he says.'

Or will be he flying out to Russia before they raid his Yanukovych-style mansions. 🤔

I've picked up a whole bunch of followers these past couple weeks, it seems, so a reminder that I maintain (irregularly) a big list of Notable Free PC Games. Mostly beefy ones

Games are expensive. The economy is terrible. If you've got a halfway functional PC, you WILL find something great in here.

Country Living magazine suggesting people plant sage and mint in their beds and letting them "fill gaps".

Just casually suggesting how to completely destroy your garden. I didn't even need to see the dozens of emdashes in the article to know an LLM wrote the bulk of this. 😂

The sun shines every day in hell.

If it dulls the pain a bit. Driving in or to the national parks is an absolute nightmare. People throwing 4 tonne child-crushers down tiny blind lanes at 60mph. 🫣

'Fun' fact: If you sort your Steam wishlist by user reviews score, it puts any game with under 50 reviews below the 80% mark, even if they're 100% positive.

The store is doing its part to keep those hidden gems hidden.

Millions of people excited to see Lockheed Martin's latest technology.

there are cases where it's unclear if someone doing harm is just in over their head and bumbling in a way that's hurting everyone, but Aaron Swartz saying "Sam can never be trusted. He is a sociopath. He would do anything." is maybe the most rock solid trustable statement possible from a real person
