The last few events gave me a huge motivation boost. First test of a #framebyframe NPC animation sequence! Still not happy with the first/last transition, but I think the rest can stay. WIP: position, name & text not final. Scene zoomed in. #solodev #pointandclick #adventure

Got my updated COVID and flu shots today because I prefer not dying and also fuck RFK jr and this whole willfully ignorant and malicious administration.

Two bandaids, one for my COVID shot and one for the flu. I didn't know which is which, I didn't look.

The Gospel of Awni teaches that you can give someone $15,299 in Claude credits and they can vibe code recipe apps for a month, or give them a 512 GB M5 Ultra and they can maintain their own Linux distro for life.

I found where this pic was from (Rolling Stone 10/31/91) and bought the mag.

Two page vertical spread of the band Tin Machine looking intensely strange. Bowie with lipstick and doing a turn, Hunt with a hairnet and cigarette, Reeves Gabrels with towel over his guitar hand... Tony looking like a model I guess.

The Soul of the New Machine. Tin Machine is more than David Bowie's latest invention.

What I’ve wanted since first starting #Zaparoo Frontend. Customisable hub page, move or hide items however you want. A tile can do anything ZapScript does. Link a game, a core, a folder, a random game from PSX and N64 combined that’s in French. Or don’t. You can keep it simple and change nothing too

Apropos to an earlier post, today I'm thinking of the writer who assured a friend I'd never sell a novel, the day before I announced I had sold Old Man's War. I hope they're well. Also, here's my Astra Award for Best Science Fiction Book, which arrived to the house literally a few moments ago.

The Astra Award has a golden statuette of a humanoid figure with wings where their arms should be. The award is for When the Moon Hits Your Eye, which was the inaugural Best Science Fiction Book winner.

new* productivity tool just dropped (playing cards for scale)

GPD Pocket 1, an ultra portable laptop with a 7" screen, with Linux installed. A playing card box is next to it for scale: the size of the whole machine is just larger than probably three decks of cards.

What better way to celebrate the 4th of July than by getting a bunch of my novels, with a big chunk of your purchase price going to World Central Kitchen, my selected charity for this bundle. Pay what you like (the more you pay, the more you get), and help feed people in need all over the world.
