Our feature reference today is this brilliant page of VISUAL WEIGHT COMPARISONS for SWORDS - so useful to think of these weights when drawing your characters wielding weapons, as weight will affect POSE, GESTURE and MOBILITY within battle!

does anyone else have a secret desire to dress in slippers, a bathrobe, and a pointy hat and move into a reclusive tower in a magical wode to ponder orbs or is it just me?

So you're telling me if a woman waves her hands and mutters something and something weird happens, she needs to be tossed into a lake with a stone tied to her ankles because she's a witch but if a bearded old guy does it he can raise up the king of England??

I get it now. Military/drama grimdark fantasy is just reality TV for nerds. You sit back and watch a bunch of not -so-good people argue and scheme.

Reading The First Law trilogy by Abercrombie and I absolutely love Glokta. Best dark fantasy character I've read so far. I would've never thought torture could be so delightful.

Got a Bambu just a few weeks before they pulled this... the agony
Imagine if HP said you had to install an HP app on your computer, and every time you wanted to print a document in Microsoft Word, you had to have Word transfer that document to the HP app, then the HP app would be the only thing allowed to actually send the print job off.

Trying to learn touch typing by looking at the keyboard is like trying to learn Japanese by watching anime with subtitles

Today I learned that QWERTY keyboards were designed so that you can type "typewriter" using just the top row

Useless sci-fi invention I desperately need: a brain-computer interface that psychically tells me what words to type on a touch typing trainer so I don't have to even look at the screen

I found one CRAZY worldbuilding trick that worldbuilders don't want you to know:

literally just copy the Roman Empire.

using Python packages on NixOS is like playing Russian roulette with an hour of your day per chamber and if the bullet hits it somehow works and you have no clue why
