Hate to break it to you, but caps on your sticks only help with grip and wear - they do zero for internal sensor wear or dust. Drift happens inside the potentiometer or spring housing. Taken apart and fixed enough pads to know. I've never heard of anyone claiming it's for drift.

What you talking about? The bumpers are 3D printed, and the flowers are for my sticks to make them look pretty. Doesn't matter what shape you have on a stick, doesn't affect if you get stick drift or not.

The title is incorrect. Cornwall is a whole region! A job in Falmouth or Truro is not accessible to a young person of Bude for example. Title should be corrected to say UK Councils with the fewest jobs for young people. Otherwise you are biasing the data to smaller city authorities.

Spent the last few weeks exploring France, where parking is free and welcoming. The contrast with #Cornwall - where £20 fees, hostile ANPR cameras, and sparse buses kill every spontaneous trip - it's staggering. Time to rethink how we treat local visitors. #carparking mrsgame.dev/2026/08/the-...

Oops, so after dusting my PC my fans are running super quiet. I guess that's been needed for a while 🫢 That's the issue with a large radiator block on the top side of the case, it's also where gravity dumps all the dust! It's been hiding in my fins!

I feel dutybound to point out that Volodymyr Zelenskyy started out playing a comedy character on TV who ends up becoming president (on TV) because people liked what he had to say, and then became president (in real life) for the same reason.

Does this mean they'll patch in all the devs names they have not added in the past? Because got loads of ex-Sony dev friends that never got added to credits, or were demoted in them to a thank you, dispite leaving in the last month of a project.

Management and some other devs that has come in wanted to be treated like a big boys studio and do shooty games like the Getaway again. If you wanted to do that there was a load of different Sony studios to move to. Ug, whole suitation pisses me off still to this day over 10yrs later. I told you so!

When Sony closed London Studio I knew it was only a matter of time. With nothing onboarding kids, they seem to assume tablet and roblox gamers will suddenly start paying over a years worth of pocket money when they become a teen for a game!? Tbh though, S2 Nintendo is not nearly as kids friendly.

Odd to be back at work. Amazing weekend of camping and snorkelling with my kid in the proper deeper sea for the first time. Spotted giant crabs and an octopus! But got home to find we had to put our cat of nearly 21yrs down, and then find my kids caught lyme disease from a tick bite last week :s

Apparently you can get fan coil units that replace radiators. Issue becomes wet dripping moisture everywhere, when we already struggle with high humidity and mold (temperat rainforest after all!). Have to get ones with drip trays or have to add whole new drain system for them all.

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
The one saving grace we have, is we hope that heat pumps can come around to reusing the pipework from central heating radiators, and take the heat out too. Again, limited by space, with water tank needed can only replace the size of the existing boiler.

Free standing units are beasts of things. If they designed one that can be much smaller, taken apart for sensible sized storage, kept a shed for most of the year - wouldn't be too bad. A friend has a 'small one' which we just do not have that floor real estate for or the ability to store one :s

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
Unfortunately, because of the 20" stone walls, and the ugly blocks that'll be on every wall, we'd probably only get permission for one. Which would still be an exceptionally high cost and will probably be dependent on planning which room we could do.

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
UK has swing windows as they naturally encourage airflow, stronger seal in strong winds & prevent leaks from the incredibly wet weather. So 99.8% of the year they are the best possible design for our climate. We were told only a High-Wall Split System (Back-to-Back Only) will work for us, per room.

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
Plus cost them, knowing they will be used for 5 days a year. And not assuming any holes can be drilled in any walls, or any pipes can be routed anywhere!

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
Or, hear me out, we have AC companies design for our swing windows, lack of floor space, a slack of storage space in mind.

"Expect installers to charge a premium of £300 to £500 per hole just for the core drilling, as it requires specialized wet diamond drilling rigs, continuous anchoring, and hours of slow, careful grinding to avoid fracturing the face of the stone." 😭

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
This is not to mention the cost. Estimated over £6500 to fit aircon to my place, potentially requiring planning permission depending where you are - for a week or 2 a year of use.

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
I simply don't have the floor space for one or a wall that I can chop a hole into. I don't have any wall cavity at all to run any piping The rooms are already tiny so adding a fake wall will stop our beds fitting in the rooms!

Katie Goode @mrsgame.dev · 25/06/2026
All windows swing open, so this or the letter box are the only solutions. However standalone units are massive, where as home sizes are tiny, so are effectively taking up proportionally MUCH more of the floor space of the house.

Though at the back of the house, it's 'only' 20 inches wide.

Nearly 1m thick stone walls made out of effectively flint, been up for +150yrs. No chance am I cutting a hole in that! Took the fiber guys a day and 4 drill bits to make a tiny hole for our internet!
The dark space on the right and the grey window is the wall size. Btw - also a fish eye lens here! No getting through this!

No one is FUNDING games for retired people. Something my dad and I have talked a lot about. We've found when pitching to some funders, the need for those publishers to appeal to the next generation of kids rather than adults. If there was specific publishers interested then we'll be happy to pitch!

And here it is.. the return of the annual #GAAD game accessibility trivia quiz! 20 questions, some of them very hard! At the end make sure you click through to see the facts behind them; the goal isn't to get them all right, winning = learning fun new things 😁 forms.gle/XakbdsUughzC... #gamedev
Which of these food analogies is correct?

"Accessibility is like ice cream, it gets messier the longer you leave it."
"Accessibility legislation is like salt, you can never have too much."
"Accessibility guidelines are like baking from a recipe, five people can follow them and get five different results."
"The only things that should be mashed are potatoes."
