Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 26/04/2026there's no way a crossword puzzle is a puzzle, right? a puzzle would be if they gave you the words, and asked you to fit them together. but they did that part for you it's a quiz, but instead of answers written upside-down at the bottom, you verify answers by filling the already-completed puzzle 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 01/06/2025hmm, but that would just make your original post even more extremely blatant of a false dichotomy though i think 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 01/06/2025are you saying everything is fundamental? chairs? fire? what is it about the concept of an "emergent phenomenon" that you do not understand? 110
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 21/05/2025ohhh they failed the wason selection task. rookie mistake 010
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 18/04/2025i wonder if the new toy story will give more character development to ham 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 13/04/2025waaaat that's utterly baffling. you'd think having at least 4 squad members would be almost an unspoken industry standard. 3 is such an...odd number 110

Reposted by Brian PanskyNoel Henderson 🇨🇦 @noelinmiocene.bsky.social · 11/04/2025There is no way in a rational political system that the politicians should be allowed to make the rules, especially around elections. That is like letting the players on the winning team make up the rules while the game is being played. 021
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 07/04/2025one issue is, who has the power to pass that law to begin with? not i 110

Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 04/04/2025we should be able to unilaterally choose our representatives 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 04/04/2025why was there a cute kids cartoon CRUCIFIXION advertised in the movie theater tonight? (that wasn't even the only jesus media in the ads either) what is happening? [we all know what's happening] 000

Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 26/03/2025it's like that meme about coffee: "do foolish things FASTER and with MORE ENERGY" 070
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 24/02/2025ya i can relate. just like people said with bluesky itself: they want to chase us here, but you wouldn't see many of us going over to their websites i think you could define an entire "side" of politics as being predators/enslavers. seems related 010

Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 17/01/2025huh, this scene came out before me-too, the deluge of accusations against Weinstien, and the (2019) arrest of Epstein... what was i thinking when i saw it the first time? maybe just his scene with "Shelly" in the diner on the original show... 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 16/01/2025what does the scene end up saying about "me-too"? about people who have been accused? 100
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 16/01/2025but can anyone recall what the actual point of the scene was, aside from this incidental bit of it? seemed like an anti-"me-too" uh, thing 320
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 14/01/2025doom 3 was pretty dang scary, and i think it did play with your imagination a lot (with music and such, and having enemies crawl in through the walls probably helped), though it's high-poly 010

Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 19/12/2024one of the main reasons that the opening of star wars revenge of the sith stands out is because it is detached, impersonal, meditative. you could perhaps even say liminal 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 15/12/2024hmm, looks like it's free! i'll have to check it out 110
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 15/12/2024you're making me want to do some too [but i must resist! no time! priorities!] what i do is make the basic shape of the object in dust3d, then do the more advanced adjustments in blender (which i hardly know how to use beyond the basics, plus the boolean modifier). it feels so powerful 110
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 15/12/2024i think it helps a lot to have a 3d modeling program that works in a way that is intuitive to you! found dust3d a year ago. now, i just flat-out feel like i can make literally anything i want to. not much practice required, really [also helps that i mostly wanna make low-poly stuff] 110
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 13/12/2024i like how "alien: covenant" and "alien: romulus" are just straight-up flat-out stealing full individual real-world words BACK from other franchises [halo and star trek] 010
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 09/12/2024huh, i guess that would make sense. also, here's some people years ago who presumably should have been biased in their favor......but instead their assessment sounds similar to yours: 000

Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 05/12/2024whyyyyyyyy though? [now they're making mFt@-\/Fr$e and b|0kc#@!n nonsense...] and why didn't elite dangerous, star citizen, and whatever else ever use improbable? 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 21/11/2024i wonder if the battle at the start of gladiator was partly inspired by the battle at the end of the phantom menace 000
Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 19/11/2024(aside from being so in love with my dream game) i discovered that there are no hard "walls". i can ALWAYS take one next tiny step, learning how to do it all as i go, without even needing to plan out the rest of the project! try "W3Schools" for C# tutorials. also: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zzkl...youtube.comUsing Interfaces in Unity Effectively | Unity Clean CodeYouTube video by James Makes Games 120

Brian Pansky @brianpansky.bsky.social · 01/11/2024Brainscan (1994), Lost Highway (1997) the movie Brainscan contains various influences from (among other things) Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks (possibly Videodrome? but i haven't seen it). subsequently, it was referenced in the films Lost Highway and eXistenZ 000
