Everything seems normal, I’ve been looking through Bluesky and Discord for ~30 minutes and the phone is still cool so, yeah, something must be wrong with your phone :(

Interesting, I also have an iPhone 12 mini, and it was running hot after an update a few weeks ago. It ended up correcting itself, so I assumed maybe it just wasn't on the wireless charging pad correctly. I'll try installing the latest update and see what happens...

My first A10 5-game win streak! I feel like I'm finally starting to get good at Slay the Spire 2, in the sense that now when I lose I know it's my fault and can identify what I did wrong (rather than blaming bad luck, or the game being unbalanced).

Discord popped up another ad harassing me to send Nitro gifts. So I cancelled my subscription. I don’t pay for any service that forces me to see ads.

VSCode's new "highlight in black" aesthetic is certainly a choice. Unfortunately, my eyes aren't good enough to play the new "find the camouflaged tabs" mini-game while coding, so I decided to switch back to the old GUI, lol...

I’ve been a bidet convert ever since Avenging Lioness asked me to install a seat-top one for her. They really should be standard everywhere. A bidet is to a regular toilet what a regular toilet is to an outhouse.

Yeah, I think the feature should have had more testing before they released it. I’m sure they will eventually get everything fixed, but if the plan was to persuade me with, “Look how easy it is to switch!”, I’m not currently sold on the idea, lol…

Ah, thanks, that's super useful info! There doesn't seem to be a way for me to see what people actually have, so of course my anxious nature had assumed the worst! Hopefully I can figure out how to correct the labelling...

Jinxxy's new, "Import from Gumroad" feature didn't work correctly, and now I'm sad. 😢 None of the paid "Fast Fur - Standard Version" licenses were transferred. I really didn't want the stress of now having to figure out how to manually transfer ~5000 licenses...

I did some handyman plumbing today. Inevitably, it makes me remember my dad, and how he was always willing to show me how to work with tools.

I've been resisting letting "Unity Hub" trick me into wasting days trying to troubleshoot why it keep constantly popping up and nagging me. Instead, I've been briefly installing it once a week, just long enough to update my Unity licenses, then uninstalling it again.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 20/07/2026
Yeah, this happens sometimes with my fur shader when using wind, ever since the earliest versions. Using LEqual on the AddPass reduces the frequency by 50%, but I’m still hoping I figure out what causes it and can fix it properly.

Progress continues with the v6.0 re-write of my shader. Now with shadows!

Ah, thanks, I suppose that’s better than nothing, but I am going to have to remember to reply to the replies, if I want others to see them in the correct order

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 26/06/2026
bah… I see that Bluesky doesn’t show replies in chronological order. I hate how social media “eNgAGmEnT” algorithms ruin everything…

Success! The new mouse is now better-than-new, and I also now have spare parts.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
Step 3: Use a heat gun to soften the ring-finger button plastic so that it can be bent back ever-so-slightly. This prevents it from binding sideways against the mouse casing and being harder to press.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
Step 2: replace new cheap-quality mouse cord with old high-quality braided cord.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
The buttons on my trusty G600 mouse are dying, so I bought a new one. First step is removing the placebo “it must be high quality because it feels heavy” weights…

Hooray! I finally beat Ascension 10 with all 5 characters! My overall feeling is that the game is noticeably easier than Slay the Spire 1, even though the monsters are tougher. There's just a lot more ways to build a winning deck.

lol... "birb" (these are tabs I had open from last night. I was researching how to convert shaders from the "Built in Render Pipeline" to the "Universal Render Pipeline"):

I just posted an early alpha version of Fast Fur v6.0 on my Discord server. The lighting is ultra-basic, and it only supports very few features, but it's rendering ~300% more fur detail, has much longer render distance, and runs ~5-10% faster. So I think it's pretty neat!

It’s either that or standing in lines.

I’m bored at the hospital (getting some chest pain checked out), so I figured I’d ask Co-Pilot to make a super-fast fur shader. I love that it has no reservations about confidently trash-talking mine, lol…

I released v5.2.0 of my fur shader today, yay! 🎆 I was planning to take a bunch of photos and do promotional vidoes showing it off, however my work on version 6 has suddenly overshadowed it. I've discovered a new rendering technique, and it completely changes EVERYTHING...

Fair analysis. Bellular News seems to have a talent for getting past the nerd-rage/flamewar mentality that unfortunatley tends to plague the gaming community.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 01/05/2026
Like, look at these numbers. I REALLY SUCK AT THE GAME, and yet it's exactly what I want. The first Slay the Spire is just so merciless, and feels so unfair at max difficulty (because I literally don't know what I'm doing wrong), and I'm having a blast going through those same feelings again.
000
Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 01/05/2026
Slay the Spire 2 is getting review-bombed. IMHO, the criticisms are fair: The developers punish "fun" decks. They nerf anything that is too easy to win with, and made the Act 3 boss Doormaker deliberately hard-counter many popular deck styles. This is, frankly, why I really love the game.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 27/04/2026
At a certain we all realize we’re living the plot of the “Final Destination” movies, except the plot moves really slow and the things that you gotta watch out for are really boring, like chewing your hot dog enough before trying to swallow it.

Yikes! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Shader development is delayed tonight, due to StS2 patch notes:

My co-worker brought in leftover Easter cookies she had made. One of them was a shortbread “Paint your own cookie”, so I did:

Hooray! I finally beat Ascention 10 with Defect! (ie. the highest difficulty available so far...) I loved Defect in Slay the Spire, but Defect in Slay the Spire 2 is even more fun. I won with a 1-attack (Null) deck that obliterated everything in its path, lol...

Day 2 without home internet. I must somehow survive until Saturday, but I am already approaching, “Hi Bob!” levels of media deprivation.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 18/03/2026
Wait, really? It *improves* performance? Very interesting! I’ve been assuming it would be slower to pre-bake geometry. I need to get a copy and run some tests! I’m always on the lookout for more potential speed gains!

I remember in the 90s when everybody's email inbox started rapidly becomming 100% spam. It felt like the death of email was inevitable, until tech companies started building proper tools to attack the problem. Hopefully history will repeat itself, soon! www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-Vr...

Woo hoo! Got my boi Defect back online! Defect was my favourtite StS1 character. I managed to get a 2-game Ascention 20 win streak with him. Slay the Spire 2 might just be the perfect deck-builder card game. It's just so good. (... and, um... I REALLY should have gone to bed already, lol...)

Vancoufur 2026 was great! I got to hang out with friends, attend interesting panels, watch great dancers, retreat to my room when my social battery was empty and work on my shader (lol...), and so many other good memories! And now that I'm home I get to play the just-released Slay the Spire 2!

I've been searching for anything new written about fur rendering in the past ~3 years. So far, the results fit into 3 catergories: - AI slop (😥) - Pre-AI articles I somehow missed (😃) - Links to my shader (🤣)

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 07/03/2026
I bought a 2020 MacBook so that I could work on the shader during convention downtime. The hardware is nice, but I think I could do without the, "you're an idiot, get used to doing it Apple's way you stupid Windows user..." search results when researching if it's possible to re-configure something.

Warren @warrenwolfy.bsky.social · 06/03/2026
heh… I didn’t expect the, “How-to make furry art with 1989 Deluxe Paint” panel at Vancoufur to be packed, lol…

I really like orels' Shader Generator. It seems like the right foundation to start building Fast Fur v6.0 on...

I remember everyone in my school bailing on first season TNG after yet another holodeck and/or Wesley Crusher (ie. Gene Roddenberry self-insert) saves the day episode. Then one day my friend tells me, “actually, it’s really good now,” and lo and behold he was right.

I apologize for coming across as a “hater”. My post was intended as a lighthearted jab regarding my Star Trek loving friend having an existential crisis with each new episode.
