You know what is fucking shit? The building where my studio (as in physical place, not Talha & Jack Co) and 100+ other art studios and charities is chucking us all out in the new year to make student accommodation. Fucking sucks. www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/st-marg...

I'm a GUI Jockey, and I'm not really much of a programmer. So when someone makes a "Unity Like" engine for the a retro game console, I get to do stupid things, like make this "Cornell Box" bounce light scene for the #Nintendo64! #Pyrite64 amazes!

I'm very please to announce a public release of my drag-and-drop bookmarking, game-making, and wandering tool Scrubjay! Scrubjay is a weird website builder that lets you cobble together web elements, images, links, text fragments, etc into a series of nested rooms...
"SCRUBJAY" sits over a bunch of images of frogs, birds, doors. it's a very 90s look

For all that it's been barely reported in the UK press, it's still hard to understate the importance of the stance @labourunionsuk.bsky.social has taken on trans and non-binary rights this week. Every single trade union affiliated to the party of government has stood up and said we will not comply.
Joint statement from National TULO

Solidarity with the trans and non-binary community

Labour's 11 affiliated trade unions stand in total solidarity with the trans and non-binary community.

Trans rights are human rights, and trans rights are workers' rights.

We in the trade union movement will do all we can to stand up for our trans members and all our trans siblings, to protect them from persecution, harassment and attack.

The government must act now to protect all trans people, to make sure their rights are protected, expanded and upheld in our workplaces and communities.

Labour Unions

I'm helping a friend look for a job in games, and thought I'd share job openings that seem decent as I find them! I'll be posting: - permanent roles - (primarily) UK companies that allow for full remote - not a mobile game slop factory - preference for indie, or smaller-sized AA #gamejobs

not a fan of even the title/thumbnail A/B testing as a viewer, off-putting to see a video in a list and then see it again 5 minutes later with a different title and/or thumbnail, and feels noncommittal

Hey guys did any of you know that Adobe Illustrator has a limit of 32,000 points on a vector path? I figured that out today and I feel pretty smart about it since Illustrator's error messages were not even slighly helpful
An Adobe Illustrator error dialog popup that states: "The following items could not be imported properly: Clipping will be lost on roundtrip to Tiny"Another Illustrator dialog that says "The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error."

Huh, a bit surprised at that being immediately tagged as graphic but can see why. For anyone who can't view it, it's the cover of "I'm Afraid of Americans" by Bowie

I have an unconventional solution to the loneliness crisis and the erasure of third spaces...
Marketing graphic for Nintendo Streetpass on the 3DS. It shows white stick figures going about their days and the two in the middle are walking away from each other, one has a tote bag the other a briefcase. It shows 3DSes in their bags and green arrows forming a circle between the people. At the bottom is two 3DSes doing a wireless communication thing between them.

I have a new paper out! Over the weekend I'll do a thread on what the Solar System can tell us about rocky exoplanets— but for now, enjoy this to-scale set of cross sections I made of the rocky worlds in *this* system! (They're all different, but still all variations on a theme...)
Interior structure models of Earth, Venus, Mercury, Mars, the Moon, and Io, all shown to scale and key elements labelled.

Devastating news. Sending solidarity to the team at The Skinny. Every print edition of every newspaper and magazine is a huge effort, so 20 years is an achievement to be proud of. But this is a huge loss for independent journalism in Scotland. Hopefully the team find work soon.
