Hm, well, I just thought “ah I haven’t checked bsky today” and then my breath promptly caught in my chest because Oh Boy Current Events, so it might be time for another long bsky break

Ul’dah is canon for Aeran, but they weren’t new there at the beginning of ARR— they moved there from rural Thanalan a couple of years prior.

Yangir and Hlessi both enter the narrative later in ARR, so the starter plots aren’t canon. They both arrived through Limsa (which is Hlessi’s starter city.)
#wolqotd is their starting city canon to their lore? if so, is it a treasured memory for them or a past they wish to forget?

Don't drown to prove you know the tide is rising
There is so much going on that I've given up trying to keep up, accepted that I cant keep up, and come to terms with "I'll learn about and deal with it when it comes my way because that's really all I can handle right now."

And sometimes that's enough.

The guy checking tickets for my train doesn’t have a pass reader for whatever reason so instead he just waved a hand over my pass and said “ding”, and somehow that’s the thing that makes me laugh and maybe jostles my shit mood loose.

why the fuck can’t I find volunteer opportunities that 1) actually have openings 2) that I don’t have to ride transit for an hour to get to 3) aren’t run by a church and 4) aren’t just “let’s facilitate group therapy~”

I do not exactly live in a tiny town with no transit this should not be so hard

Seal Rock and Borderland Ruins both got quests on em at different points. Where’s the sidequests that feature the other two pvp maps

(bonus points if it’s the old version of fields of glory)

Every so often I get it in my head that I want to follow fellow gamedev people on here but it’s probably never going to happen cause I know from prior experience that I can’t keep up with having separate real person and fandom nonsense accounts and I cannot have my coworkers on the ocposting account

See the advantage I gain in spending a few minutes to look up and think through the solution to a code question rather than asking the Water Evaporator 5000 what the answer is is I get to be pretty sure that my answer is, yknow, correct.

I know people have (understandably) said that they're disappointed the SAG-AFTRA video game strike is still going on. So am I. But we need to be clear here--it's *entirely* the fault of the companies. Don't believe me? Here's what they're currently trying to force on us. I'd *never* agree to this.
It has been 194 days since @sagaftra.org actors started striking video games. In that time, we have signed over 150 games to Interim agreements, proving that our demands are more than reasonable. But the bargaining partners still refuse to give us anything more than lip service. (cont'd)

why does the windows screenshot annotation tool straight up crash the graphics card on my work machine. How is it tying up more resources than the dang unreal editor

lrt having an opaque, complicated operating system that you don’t know how to use is a worse security risk than having a kind of crappy OS that you can figure out the security features of

if you don’t already know Linux then you don’t need to install Linux

idk who needs to hear this, but if an internet stranger is giving you security advice that includes installing linux, disregard that person immediately

the set of people who actually need to run linux as a result of their threat model is quite small, and none of them are taking advice from randos

Computers are a joke because sometimes you forget a single - and then it’s impossible to see why things aren’t working until you reread the same line 50 times.

how’s a guy supposed to concentrate on shit like “shipping a video game” with all this though.

If you do not like that your games are being released without voiceover, please write to the companies producing them and tell them to sign the SAG-AFTRA INTERIM AGREEMENT to guarantee their actors the right to consent to being fed into generative AI. We are being denied that right.

The bow is Hlessi’s primary weapon, but nobody is ever really sure how many knives are on her person.

Yangir’s backup weapon is Yangir, followed by “melee weapon formerly belonging to the nearest chump that thought disarming Yangir would work.”
