Anyway ya, I'm broke and sad. All I want is someone to let me hyper-focus on their hyper-niche and get paid. 🤷

So cray what this supercomputer looked like; they don’t make them like they used to. Yes, it even has a little upholstered bench to sit on. 🥰 #retroComputing #retro #ComputerHistory #cray

I'm sad to see a lot of artists I know saying it's super hard to get sales. And it really is. So I wanna promote them here again. Go check them out and buy or tip them if you can. This is the non-US shops list but I'll post other lists as well.

FF7 scenarios with pre-rendered backgrounds were always a mystery to me during childhood; but even to this day it's still something that amazes me. Now you can inspect every single Final Fantasy VII stage, including the 3D path + variations. #FF7 #FinalFantasy #FFVII #PS1 #PSX #RetroGame

By the way, we’re always on the lookout for writers of interesting gaming features… We are very much indie, and there are also limits to what will fit into a print magazine, but we do pay decent rates! Our standard rate is £300 for a researched 1500 word piece. Transparency is good, folks!

Next step in de-#adobe-fying my workflow. Good riddance! @adobe.com
Exit survey of Adobe Acrobat about why I decided to uninstall it. My reason was "other" -> "crap" with the following feedback for what's it worth: "You've turned Acrobat into a laggy piece of garbage and you know it. It has long ceased to be about the end user experience and more about what the C-suite thinks it can get away with. Rethink your life!"

You know what I miss with everything being streamed? The DVD extras: Making Ofs, Behind the Scenes, outtakes, filmmakers’ commentary, etc. To me, they were like the dessert to watching the movie, and shaped my passion for How Things Are Made and got me into the film/media industry. I want more!

Adobe Acrobat has become more or less useless for viewing PDF files: It takes ages to start, then a constant barrage of AI this and AI that pop ups; and the document view scrolls as smoothly as a sloppy ZX Spectrum port. Seriously, f that s! I'm now using Waterfox’s built-in viewer instead. #PDF
Screenshot of Acrobat with a document open but 2 thirst of the screen are oversized UI of "Generate presentation" "AI Assistant" "Summarize the key points" and similar shit.

Tried to relax with my new markers (and old colored pencils) today. #art #noAI #coffee
POV of myself holding a cup of coffee in front of my sketchbook with a cartoony sleeping unicorn drawn inside with the caption "Tired but happy". Pencils and markers are strewn about the café table. Another page in my sketchbook depicting a cottage at a lake with a boat in front. The colors are mostly rose, blue and yellow with the three markers sitting on the page in front. Photo of the page in my sketchbook with a cartoony sleeping unicorn with the caption "Tired but happy". Very colorful.
