Me, and half of my coworkers, have been laid off. I'm now looking for my next position as gameplay or tools programmer (remote, or relocating within Europe). More about me on my website: pauljoannon.com #gamejobs #gamedevjobs
Hi! I'm Paul, a French game programmer living in Lille.
You might know me for narrative-centric games such as “Bury me, my Love”, or “King of the Castle”.
I am also one of the maintainers for the .NET integration in #GodotEngine.

Oh so fun news. Paramount Plus has a commercial now for a Bari Weiss / Erika Kirk hour long special and if you try to skip it to get to your show, it kicks you out of the app. You *must* watch it to see any program now.

by far the funniest use case for AI is “I use it for powerpoints because I hate making them and nobody looks at them” because it kinda sounds like the real workflow savings would be to stop making powerpoints

Poland says Ukrainian refugees contribute more than they cost
Poland’s parliament has debated a government report showing that most Ukrainian refugees in the country are working and contributing more to public finances than they receive in support.

sheesh, the only thing worse than getting kicked out of the polycule is finding out via jira ticket 😣
![Screenshot of an email:

To: me
Good morning Kimberly! =^uwu^=;;
I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble logging into Jellyfin! It looks like your SSO account was indeed deactivated on 2025 Dec 15.
According to our records,
1. On or about 2025 Nov 15, you were broken up with by ___, who noted this as a “final break” on vis event report sheet. I’m also seeing that Ve ticked the “Unilateral” box, meaning it isn’t contestable.
2. Our Salesforce shows you aren’t close to any other polycule members
Unfortunately, our solo-poly access policy doesn’t allow us to extend resources to unpartnered members after the 30 day grace period following your break. This includes entertainment resources (Jellyfin / *darr / nzbget / Pornhub for Enterprise™ seat), as well as O365™, Adobe CC™, and shell access on the Nix clusters. We’re so sorry for your loss, cutie!! 😭💜
If you have any questions, you can reply to this email to generate another ticket, or you can contact zzzoeee@ from our Partner Infra team (note: three Zs and three Es in their LDAP, we have a lot of Zoes here!)

If billionaires loved art, they have the means and opportunities to support artists. The fact that they are trying to cut the artists out of the loop to just make you pay THEM to use their shitty tools shows they couldn't give less of a shit about art.
