So this is gonna be a long thread about the hardest year of my life.
On election day of 2024, while still reeling from the political news, I found out my mom had to go to the hospital.
It was serious.
I flew to my hometown the next day.

#FatalFury thoughts:
This is, I think, the best SNK game since KOF13. The gameplay is dense, with so many layered mechanics that each round feels like reading a novel. The REV system in particular feels like a small revolution: players can go all out but not without paying a price. It feels

I love deep dives into network code, and this presents very well!
How does ROLLBACK NETCODE work, why is it so difficult to program, and why is it the gold standard for fighting games? A whirlwind tour of different solutions #pixelart #gamedev #AnimationVERSUS
The setup: you have a video game with couch co-op and want to add online multiplayer. Easy, right...?

You will probably see me post about the new #FatalFury in the coming days. I want to start by saying this: regardless of the Saudi investment, this is SNK's best game in more than a decade and one of their best games ever made.
I do hope that tournaments ban characters like Cristiano Ronaldo, tho.

I saw this trailer for #Tron over the weekend for the first time.
I have never wanted to see Tron stuff in the real world. That seems, broadly, to be missing the point of the first two films.

A lot of the times on social media when folks share their #PaintingWarhammer models they're done and look great. Well these aren't done and they're firmly in the "ugly phase" of painting. I want to share them because I think it's important for people to see the process as much as the result!

keep seeing American commentators saying 'trump tariffs have made the rest of the world mad at us which is why tourism is down'. which is weird.
tourism is down because ICE keep kidnapping tourists and we don't want to be sent to jail for trying to go to disneyland. you can try saying that.
