I can't stay quiet any longer, Pukka lemon and ginger tea tastes like hot water.
Weak as hell, must do better.

There's so much good shit in here and I haven't left the first area.

Some fireflies took my breath away!!

Looking forward to this, I've heard good things.

More groove.

Experimented with splitting the saturated and distorted FX chains completely so that you can actually hear the cymbals, and not just noise.

damn i literally couldn't have said it better myself (read the entirety of the thread if you want to be even more mad lol)
perhaps the most egregious thing that happened with the Future Class was when The Game Awards took money from Old Spice in the name of the FC & simply... pocketed it

it wasn't used to fund Future Class initiatives, it wasn't used to help lift marginalised developers

they just profited from us

“ In Apocalypse World, you have as one of the core questions: something is wrong with the world, and I don’t know what it is,” said Meguey Baker. “In Burned Over, we have the core question: something is wrong with the world, and everyone knows what it is.”
"The time for a softer, gentler Apocalypse World was gone."

Apocalypse World: Burned Over represents the complicated ways that both the Bakers and reality have changed since the original RPG's release.
Apocalypse World: Burned Over is kinder and much angrier
The end of the world isn’t what it used to be. It might be better.

Been going down another #homeAssistant rabbit hole recently re: local voice assistants. I have an old laptop from 2013 that was gathering dust and I wondered if I could get voice processing working on it to keep everything local, but running faster than the Raspberry pi everything else uses..

Don't love this.
I will be fine. And a number of other experienced rpg folks are going to be totally fine. But think of the wasted knowledge of people who know how to make complicated crpg immersive sim type things that have nowhere to go and how in 5 years ppl will look around for those folks and see no one

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

Israel has just arrested Greta Thunberg and many others.

Statement from the Global Sumud Flotilla:

“People of conscience have been abducted. The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.”
1/3
Close to 65k watching the livefeed from the Global Sumud Flotilla off the coast of Gaza.

Israel seems to be intercepting right now.

All eyes needed.

Watching this citizen flotilla try and get aid into Gaza has been wild. And now here they are being intercepted in person for the first time. Actual history is happening, how much coverage has there been of this? @novaramedia.com doing essential work.

Pretty interesting attending the #BAFTA panel on climate storytelling last night (thanks to the person whose ticket I stole).
A certain level of attendees showing off their green credentials, but also some thoughtful responses.

Today in things nobody asked for but I'm still doing:

Pixel depth offset so the corduroy texture can have proper self-shadowing.

Wow.

This is absolutely huge.

After the attacks, Spain is offering direct military protection to the flotilla bringing humanitarian aid to Gaza.

So what now, Israel?

Are you going to risk acts of war against a European nation so you can attack humanitarian vessels?

Something groovy to celebrate the fact there's new NIN in the world. Managed not to fuck up the mix too much this time, and dial in the bit crushing and distortion with slightly more finesse than previous attempts.
