And this
A panel. On the panel is a sticker "ELECTRICAL HAZARD" A similar panel, on the other side of the alcove. The panel on there other side has simply been mirrored, and the electrical hazard sticker is shown mirrored so the writing is backwards. Such a rookie error, I want my money back, etc.

Really unexpected and pretty gross looking result here. I'll have to destroy everything.

This has ruined my day man. All that good environment art and then you do this to me? You do this? To me, specifically?

rightly deleted, fair play. but sincerely i'd say this has already happened. the job market is completely uckfayed at the moment and for indies from what i've heard you can't get a publishing deal now unless you're making derivative goop. prove me wrong! please god prove me wrong i need some money
Gamedevs are going to shrink back to bedroom coding, who create games because they love them, and distribute them to their friends. The collapse of the industry is essentially going to force a regression, turn the clock back 40 years. Might not be a bad thing. Nobody gets into games for the salary.

it's funny you should mention Random though
Unity's tooltip doc for Random.Range(int, int) has parameters named minInclusive and maxExclusive and uses proper interval notation on its text documentation in describing the range

absolute basics of documentation failure by Unity here. are min and max inclusive or exclusive? this is fundamental to the use of this function
int Mathf.Clamp(int value, int min, int max) [max is highlighted] The maximum integer point value to compare against. Clamps the given value between a range defined by the given minimum integer and maximum integer values. Returns the given value if it is within min and max.

Why is the lame usually shown used with the curve pointing up? Seems to me it should be pointing down

Euthanasing my kvass, which has developed a kahm yeast I find unpleasant to look at. I will wait for this to cool, add some of my rye sourdough starter, and see if it happens again. This time I'll keep it lidded instead of covering with a cheese cloth and elastic.

What's worse about this is the default fps of an animation in Unity is 60, so the display LOOKS like it's displaying fucking minutes and seconds!!! When it's not, it's displaying seconds and frames!!!
Markers go "0:00", "0:10", etc up to "0:50" then "1:00"

This is what Unity's animation window looks like when the FPS of an animation is set to 24fps, and the display is set to "seconds" instead of "frames".
Screenshot of the animation timeline. Above a little pixel bird sprite animation is a ruler with labels that say "0:00", "0:04", "0:08" etc until it gets to "0:20" and then the next one is "1:00"! What the fuck, how is anyone supposed to understand this or reason about it?

Funny bird
Tiny bird on a pine tree branch. Looking in our direction, its close set black eyes are huge in proportion with its body, and its beak makes a really funny grumpy looking expression

Acers
An acer tree in the autumn, its leaves bright red. Another acer, from underneath such that its absurdly red leaves are backlit by the low autumn sunlight The floor below an acer tree absolutely covered in bright red fallen leaves. In the background another acer that has turned yellow instead of red makes a pleasing colour contrast with the sea of crimson before us

Some things are nice and easy in Linux. Other things, not so much (like making taskbar shortcuts in Linux Mint Cinnamon)
so in windows or mac you'd like launch an app you'd installed, it pops up on the taskbar, you right click and pin it to the taskbar or "keep in dock" on mac, so you can launch it easily next time. In Mint Cinnamon, that only works if you installed the app through software centre, otherwise you have to create a thing for it yourself (right click the mint start icon in the bottom left, select configure, select "menu", select "open the menu editor", find the category you want, click add item, give it a name, browse to the executable you want, click the icon to change that if you need to, try to find the icon or download it, close the new item dialog, select the new item in the menu editor, click "edit desktop file", add a line for "StartupWMClass" so that when the icon is clicked it doesn't make a second icon in the taskbar for the application instance, and the value for StartupWMClass is found by opening the application and then doing "xprop WM_CLASS" in terminal and then clicking on the application window and copying the output of that command as the value for StartupWMClass in the desktop file, and then it should behave like you did that single right click and "pin to taskbar" action in Windows).
