If you like indie games, show blender some love. Free and open source software like Blender makes it possible for people who don't have massive budgets to make cool stuff. Help them keep making cool stuff.
Blender is struggling. it's the best piece of 3d software on the market, and it's free. I'm not going back to autodesk.
please donate if you can!

disappointed that game devs are bringing back ps1 and ps2 era graphics without also bringing back fmv cutscenes in wildly different artstyles

Heineman left Interplay after all that, and once the dust had settled, contract stuff meant that Interplay had porting rights to Wolf 3D. They ended up publishing versions for the Mac and 3DO, which they outsourced to Logicware, which was run by... Rebecca Heineman.

Those versions turned out great

Ultimately Carmack ended up doing SNES Wolfenstein mostly by himself, but despite the kerfuffle the audio drivers in the finished build are Rebecca Heineman's. She was not credited.

Incidentally this also means that yes, she was technically involved with Super 3D Noah's Ark and all.

John Romero has a similar account in his autobiography, although he opts to give Rebecca a pseudonym while talking about her.

He also omits the whole chair murder thing

Remember that time the DOOM dev team violently destroyed a chair which they'd turned into an effigy of Rebecca Heineman after contractual issues left her unable to do the SNES port of Wolfenstein 3D?

Cuz that's a thing that happened.
I just learned that John Carmack misgendered and deadnamed Rebecca Heineman in his "tribute" over on Twitter. He probably thinks it's okay when talking pre-transition days, but FYI, most trans people hate that. Worse, he never calls her "she," switching to "they" for recent memories. Fuck that guy.

At a recent gathering of Rogers Park volunteers, we heard from a neighbor who choked up telling us about their dad turning around and going home when he heard whistles up the street. "One of you may have saved his life that day." It all matters, it really does.
One thing that is tough about rapid response/patrols, besides constantly being threatened by armed secret police, is that for the most part they see the defeats. There are exceptions, but you’ll never know how many people were saved by slowing feds down, whistles, community alerts, etc.

side-eyeing everyone who plays stuff that openly admits to its genAI usage, especially when it's well-known and well-circulated. support actual creators ✌

I wonder if tech creeps are gonna do what the automotive industry did when they invented the crime of jaywalking to shift the blame for safety issues onto the public
re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"

Hey.

Kindly reminder.

Content creators are not your friends just because you like their work. You do not know who we are.

This goes double for anyone under 18; be very careful about interacting with adults.

If any adult makes you feel uncomfortable, DO NOT ENGAGE THEM. RUN.

Important update: I have received word from insiders that Crunchyroll executives have deemed the user backlash to be small enough that their subtitle enshittification & OOONA plans will NOT be cancelled, only delayed.

I have added an update to the article. There's a summary at the top now too.

Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason

A ton of research and effort went into this one. This is the article to read to get to the bottom of Crunchyroll's subtitle changes!

Replies here will show up as comments (eventually)
Crunchyroll is destroying its subtitles for no good reason | Daiz.moe
With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.
