Don't reward bad behavior.
If a tech company spends effort to program a lock to make a preciously-available feature no longer available unless you pay: DON'T pay it. Go elseware, or find tools to circumvent their arbitrary lock.

I may be too tired for gamedev on Sunday morning. :(
And I need to finish grading and writing reports. But I'll try to do gamedev throughout the coming week.

So my bestie broke her ankle and I'm thinking of things to give her to help with her stationery life for now. I am probably gonna get one of those kids lap desks with the storage on either side and maybe some markers and journaling things for her.
Might also buy her one of those grabby tools.

I want to figure out a way to easily store my quiz/test questions in plaintext and in my course prep repository (as opposed to exclusively in Canvas LMS) but also without making the process of assembling an exam tedious and annoying.
Part of me is thinking to store them in org files then write […]

I traded my cousin for her robo vacuum and it's been nice! Especially cuz we just have hard floors and so it can do all the vacuuming and then I can mop a crumbless kitchen. 😎
I've always been kinda bad at sweeping. Or maybe a broom just isn't great for getting all the little bits. 😅

Once again I am posting about how noticeably worse my internet connection has gotten (Google Fiber) - I'll scroll down a social media feed and images don't load, I'll play a YouTube video and it will start buffering every few minutes.

It's gonna be confusing for newcomers to Divinity series to figure out the order the entire franchise comes in lol. I mean I guess that was already the case but now if the latest Divinity is just named Divinity I can see that being confusing.
Anyway at least go play Divinity Original Sin 2.

Ignoring everything else, I do feel lucky to have been born at a time where I really got to experience the evolution of video games in probably the most turbulent thirty years. Early enough to appreciate the first video games (released before I was born) but also experiencing DOS up thru now.

The year is 2025 and companies are trying to appeal to our early 2000s nostalgia by having the stars of Scrubs advertise cellphone plans.

Is there an online Google Docs (writer, spreadsheet) type dealio that's not owned by Google/Microsoft/Apple?
Like specifically to update a spreadsheet and have it be easily viewable live online as it changes, or even a share edit?

Still haven't gotten around to making my game ide Ace Pilot, where you're an asexual fighter pilot hero fighting off aliens and avoiding groupies.

Rai, about Evanescence: it's a band?
Me: yeah, it's an old timey band from the 2000s.

You would think that game publishers/developers would take note of Expedition 33 winning a ton of awards, and Baldurs Gate 3 in a previous year, and maybe think ... Hmmm, maybe we should treat our developers with dignity, fund creative and new ideas, make games that don't exploit peoples' […]
