HOW TO SURVIVE THE HEATWAVE:
1. Stay hydrated.
2. Have an ice cream cone.
3. Dismantle the fossil fuel industry which is literally burning the planet for the short term profit of a vanishingly small capitalist class.
4. Wear loose clothing.

A man discovers through a DNA test he is actually the son of a famous #DOOM mapper known as Dr. Sleep who had sadly already passed away by the time he found out. What follows is his discovery of Doom and the vibrant mapping scene that has continued to this day so he builds his first Doom map to better understand the father he never knew:

artists using AI to make art is going to cause you a lot of troubles. Browsing Fiverr, it's common to see such ads. It's not possible that someone makes such good-looking BG asking only 24 eur each! indeed, in the description the seller claims "I use the latest ai technologies in combination with photoshop and illustrator to create the highest quality art for your projects."
Which means if you use this to make your Steam game you're going to face trouble and delays...! #indiedev #gamedev

Can we talk about how badly Apple messed up with code signing and notarization on macOS? These are the instructions to install most indie games and open source software now.

People are being taught to ignore Apple’s warnings, making them useless. Many devs can’t justify $100/year just to avoid this. Some software doesn’t get released for Mac because this is such a hassle. It’s nobody’s fault but Apple’s, and their platform is worse for it.

Looking forward to playing Viewfinder, out today on PlayStation and Steam. “A mind-bending first person adventure game in which you can bring pictures to life by placing them into the world.”

“This enchantment was made by a furry spelladmin. It only works if you’re at least 50% cat. Honestly we’ve tried to replace it but the tails are pretty nice and at some point we stopped worrying about it.”

LB: I find it bizarre that some people continue to suggest Brave as a real alternative when the guy in charge is a weird crypto shilling bigot

Family hearing me talk about the stuff I learn in uni: Wow!! You're so smart!
Meanwhile my brain, playing the Mii channel music on repeat for the fifth hour:

Boost this post that there's no LGB without the #transgender. Trans people are front line of the Fediverse.
