Basically how I feel right now given that UE/Epic seems to be going off the deep end on AI nonsense. Godot is more fun to build in anyway. Now to spend a week porting my level & camera/movement system to validate true viability. I might be a bit giddy.
Distracted boyfriend meme illustrating the desire to move to Godot as a primary game engine over Unreal due to Epic's infatuation with AI nonsense while Godot builds more robust features on a strong & efficient foundation worth supporting, with an update containing a critical requirement for world scale being achieved, inspiring the poster to drop 6 years of experimentation with the former engine for new horizons

A mouse like this for PC games when I was a kid, it was awful. I remember playing Black & White and trying to sling fireballs with great difficulty. It also pinched my fingers & required you to hold it to use. All around 0/10 device.

😊 It's taken so long to find this in person, now I can acquire the rest of the series. I could've just ordered it sure, but I find getting the 1st one special. I love Blue Period. I saw the series a few years ago & really wanted a physical copy. That starts now.

Took a break from the monitor & got the aqua studio tgts brush library set up, i'm already in love. Fountain brush detailer, cloudy round, and toothy chisel are already favorites. Did a quick (1-2m) doodle of a random shoe & it sucks but I love the edge variation. This is fun 😊

Welp, got to where all guides seem to indicate the thermistor is under the heat pad, but the square on the corner of the board does not have a thermistor there & seems to be using a different board. Same issue but presenting differently, so seems I may need to go another route -__-

Finally mustered the energy to attempt the monitor repair on my Samsung Neo g9, and can't find my precision tool set. Welp, it didn't stop me. Back is off! Thankfully I have half a dozen soldering irons. Time to tinker.

If I ever run into Jimothy once I move to WA I think it'll be a fun time lol. The local fam of ~3 racoons here seem to like me & enjoy sitting on my doorstep watching me at my computer desk. They pose for selfies & sleep on the stoop. Cute lil guys. I just wish they'd stop moving my tools.

Larches are super cool, Larix Laricina. I love the tiny pinecones. It's a bit early for a color change I suppose, but the branches are really cool

I received a free rupee from a super awesome skullkid in cosplay in the Gundam booth at PAX. My friend Alex whom I went to college with was running the booth as well so it was good to see him again, alas no free merch/swag though T__T

On the list to review for the future & over the rest of PAX: At least something from each of these artists has struck me as awesome, if I could fit all their things in my suitcase I would, I am really sad I'm not local yet or I'd grab a lot more, but thankfully shipping exists for some!

I suppose since I posted a tiny part of my game map awhile back I should post part of my player character now that I'm around 95% happy with it. There's still tons to do as always but it feels really good to finally have this mostly out of my head after so many years.

Agreed. I love aurichalcite. I have a cool piece I picked up from Etsy a few years ago that was pretty cool mixed with calcite, there are a few similar minerals that exhibit similar allure that are very fun :3

As obnoxious and uncomfortable as these glasses are they do a solid job of keeping out the UV light. I really would prefer to find a pair that both fit well and didn't look so silly, though.

Ah, apologies for lack of clarity. This is specifically on Mobile, Android in particular. I keep the tab bar disabled (which has the +), so on my view there is the addressbar, :D for tab list, and the Vivaldi button. Ideally I'd be able to toggle on an inline + for new tab.

I'll share a tiny piece of the map, as it's still WIP and subject to change. But I love the one little island that turned out looking like a fish. It's adorable.

It wasn't done by morning, but ill finish it this week after work once I get more adhesives. It's looking decent so far I think. I suppose it's technically more of a cudgel.

This is one example, I'm hoping for more as zoomed in phone shots aren't great. Would love to get some photos with my OM Systems OM-5
