If you know someone who might be able to help with two or three frames of doom sprite artwork, anything would be better than my own attempts. I dunno why it made my fingers look so fat and stubby 😅

I also added this little guy who takes psychic damage as you scroll, but I think I want to redo the hands without AI before I launch, because....yeah. And I guess I can just host it on xrdoom.com instead of trying to find another custom domain. But yeah, that's where it is now.

Dang I was really excited to try this, but it crashes as soon as I call the ice cream man 😭

This is what my house looked like the day my son was born. He came two weeks early. It was overwhelming. We got drywall up and then stopped work and lived with no floors or doors for 6 months. I know the hopeless feeling well. It gets better, I promise.

I've been working on this for Doom WADs - it only works with oldschool Doom wads though, not newer gzdoom format wads. Clicking the play button on the level preview loads the wad in a web port of Chocolate Doom Still a work in progress but if you wanna try it out it's here bai.dev/doom/doomscr...

Nice. Yeah I was up in the fire roads above Marin the other day, those hills are really happy after all the rain we got earlier this year

I've got a similarly weird comment in my engine, at some point in development I was getting XR frames with no head pose data and had to handle that case

View from my parents' place in northern Valencia, from an hour ago. They're just outside the evacuation zones....hope it stays that way 😬

Pretty sure I remember kiltbros being a thing in tech in the late 90s. Looked something like this.

I don't know if this counts as arty, but I was proud that this picture I drew earlier this year really captured my son's defiant sassiness. If I recall, he was double-thumbs-downing the dinner I'd just cooked for him, after a particularly difficult day. He was not amused - but I was!

Yeah I've had mine running my radiant floor heating for about 10 years now and I basically have to trick it into being a dumb timer-based thermostat. Radiant floor heating has a huge lag time so if I let it do it's thing it ends up way too hot during the day, and too cold at night

When I saw these pictures I started laughing the hardest I've laughed in years. Whether it's real or not, the whole thing is fucking hilarious.
