At the Zoo, drinking overpriced beer and watching concerts. As you do on Seattle summer evenings.

Got tired of the typing experience on my Logitech G915 and went down a (shallow) mechanical keyboard rabbit hole.

Ended up with a Nuphy Air75 w/ moss switches, and I’m really happy with the overall setup.

Saw Róisín Murphy live for the first time today. I expected her to have a lot stage presence, but this was beyond awesome.

Between costumes and excellent use of cameras, that was spellbinding.

Using an image, show a movie you are sure you have watched more than ten times.

I don’t think I’ve reached the blasé part yet, luckily. I have a lot of the swag up my shelves, to remind me of good (and bad) times of shipping various games.

It’ll all go back in moving boxes, as most of it not worth the hassle to ship across the atlantic 🤷‍♂️

All part of starting a new chapter.

I’ve collected a lot of gaming related tchotchkes over my years of employment.

This glass plaque celebrating the 30th anniversary of Digital Illusions (EA DICE) is my favourite.

Sure Alexa, that’s exactly what I wanted when I said “play music in apartment”.

Short intro. I’ve been in games for ~13 years, working as a software engineer on online services for games, such as matchmaking, quest and stats

I started out at DICE, shipping a number of Battlefields, later Star Wars and Mirror's Edge

I joined Epic Games ~1 year ago, working on Fortnite #GameDev

Spotify desktop UI/UX team have been killing it lately. Love the new Now Playing sidebar.
