I don't care if your mobile game is "free", has "no ads", or is playable offline. The moment I see "Harder then you think." or those variable "Test your brain age!" on an ad... it's an immediate "Don't even touch that game."

No spam calls for nearly a year. My phone subscribes itself to the Verizon "Spam Blocker" and the free trial runs out, defaulting to the Free version. Suddenly, I've had two spam calls since. I don't answer unfamiliar numbers. Still quite #suspicious.

Practice run with #SVG number two. Have an angry #Pikachu. Honestly, the more I play with it the more fun it gets.

Practicing with SVG this weekend, in part for fun, in part to get to using it seriously. Mario seemed like a fairly reasonably complex subject - and I built a whole level around him.

Why can't WinSCP figure out how to do a background download of upgrades by now? Discord does it - WinSCP sends a notification that forces you to close the whole program, and visit the download page. #FTP #WebDev

Is it just me, or do smartphones need a "Yardwork / Active" Mode in order to avoid triggering sensitive functions like Emergency dial? #smartphones #android #iphone

If I understand right at all, there is no way this bodes well for the video game industry in the long run... this is another brick that could eventually hurt archivist efforts.

Finally settling on a system - I'm thinking I might go with Astro + React.

I don't understand how #Strapi became one of the top #Node CMS. Why do they get away with calling it "Free Forever", and then lock basic features such as log auditing behind a premium paid plan on the control panel? That should be included by default. Worse, locking Content History? That's wrong.

What the actual heck. I saw the #Minecraft #Movie Thanksgiving clip during the Macy's parade. Anything they did to repair the trailer with the new version has been utterly destroyed.

I swear they told an intern to edit it down to 15 seconds for the TV spot.

Created a custom mug design after seeing that seemingly every ladybug-style cup out there was simply bug prints on a standard mug.

I'm also working on other things too. Creating a small app and I've got a couple of little game concepts in mind, one of which I'm playing with.

I've been #writing a lot lately. I have one #manuscript I'm trying to #publish traditionally, and a second I'm working on to self publish in the same world. Should I go ahead and post to sites like #Inkitt and Royal Road while it's a work in progress? Wattpad is a mess from what I hear.

Woke up this morning to the most laughable attempt at a #tax #scam I've ever heard.

"This is a reminder overdue tax debt due to the IRS is being cancelled for the year 2024! Before paying yours, call us at this number! This is part of that brand new Federal tax program you've probably heard about!"

Nothing quite like partially waking up at 6:00 AM to hear "COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP! WE HAVE A SEARCH WARRANT.", repeated in various forms.

Something serious was up at a neighbor's house. Somehow, this is the third time I've lived adjacent to a place raided by SWAT.

Might as well make a post for #portfolioday! I'm terrible at 2D art, but I can create in 3D. It feels like working in clay, but with unlimited material.

As it currently goes, I'm working out the planning points for my second #manuscript. The first is finished, and I'm searching for agents for publishing.

Yet, a single line in the first novel sparked all the points for a prequel based on it, in the same universe. I couldn't help but start writing.

Hey! I guess I should actually say something here.
I'm in #gamedev, write stuff, and make little apps at times - as well as create 3D models.

As such, my content might be a bit random - or related to games I'm playing.. or making. Who knows?
