Austin Wintory - a certified Somebody - took all the time in the world to talk with my spouse and I - who are merely somebodies - at a holiday party. Nicest guy in the world, 10/10 would work in the orbit of any time.

Mass Effect was my ultimate white whale, my all-time dream project. For the last couple years I'd been in discussion w/ BioWare & EA to take on the project & as part of that I wrote close to 20 minutes of music to explore where the franchise can go next, may as well share it!

Loved him in Star Trek, of course, especially the movies. He was a lot of fun in Babylon 5, too, playing completely against the type that a lot of us knew him for.

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

Me: Who am I? How do I walk? Game: One sec! First: Don't forget to pop into Sal's Bar to grab your Platinum Pistol and Talking Penknife, and check your Travel Luggage for yer Crazy Frog Tracksuit. Also the bonus mission "Peeps killed my pops!" is available if you speak to Becky in the Grocery Aisle

When I was first learning how to code, I would follow examples but often not understand them. Just follow the tutorial (say, for collision or normal mapping or w/e), shift things around, and be frustrated when the stuff on screen wasn’t what I wanted. A lot of these attitudes remind me of that.

I’ve been really busy lately - I guess we started putting lead back into everything?

I played #Titanfall2VR mod The immediate sense of scale with the world, BT, Pilots and enemies was so awesome to finally stand in. I loaded up my levels and played some. The fastball genuinely brought me joy. I should have turned on my mic so you could hear me screaming.

I was born and raised in Alaska and it's really annoying that he's just leaking our big test tube secrets like this.

Met him for a moment at E3, 20+ years ago, and he was kind and gracious even to a dumb kid like me. Man.

Devastating news today. Richard “Levelord” Gray was such a great guy. Like many of our friends, I wish I could have hung out with him again. He was full of life, a gentle soul, and an excellent level designer. He was called “Levelord” for a reason.

I ate it up too, and a wiser friend than I pointed out the reality.

everyone is making pretty bold anecdotal claims about the Yandex DC going out resulting in less right wing content, but all the actual data I’ve seen has been saying it hasn’t moved the needle at all. I would be very skeptical of these claims; they will almost certainly turn out to be totally false.

I want what they have.

It’s true. Every one of them amazing to work with.

It’s rough and unfair out here in the dreams business. You would have loved what this team of 70+ passionate devs were doing together.

Everyone on this team was so infuriatingly talented. It's pretty soul crushing for this to happen. Friends that are hiring, don't hesitate to reach out if a resume that mentions Gravity Well passes by your desk, I'll be happy to tell you that the person that submitted it is solid gold.

This might be the worst thing a US President has ever said in public. I’m not even making a joke, I’m honestly shocked. This is vile.

After a years long search for a copy, Mad Angler Press would like to formally introduce a 4K/HD scan of GUNSIGHT Phase 0, a text that is a cornerstone as to how we understand Mobile Suit Gundam's lore today. To view the text, please visit below:

At some point (1995?) RAM was about $50 a megabyte, and that ratio has been seered into my brain ever since. Even with this year’s awful price increases, I still kind of marvel at what we can get for that same price now.

Your guy is over here chewing on old Intel CPUs. He really is stuck in the 1980s.

Trump: "I take an aspirin a day. I don't know if it works but psychologically I need it. It thins the hell out of your blood I guess ... They want me to go down to the 80. I take the 386. I don't know what the hell it is. It's a monster. They said, 'Sir, you don't need that!'"

This is so cool to see. In August 2014 I was home on paternity leave and got Titanfall 1/2 working with the Oculus Rift 2. Seeing Titans “for real” is cooler than you’re even expecting. Rando trivia: VR is why the guns in Titanfall2 don’t look as squished as they did in Titanfall1! Because…

Chris Person@papapishu.bsky.social

It's still really early and there's a lot of stuff they need to figure out still but when it's good it does feel this good.

When I saw how the R101 - and other guns - looked “for real” I was struck at how much cooler they were than on a flat display. Turns out we were still drawing our viewmodels at a very squished (55?) fov. After this we changed it to 70 and afaik it’s how Titanfall2 & Apex guns have been ever since.

Anyhow it was the coolest thing ever, we just didn’t have a good excuse to dedicate more time into it. I really look forward to trying this out - I never really got to see Titanfall2 like this, just Titanfall1 assets. And I’m sure these modders are much wiser with VR things than I was back in 2014.

Next time you're getting bloodwork, ask to test for lipoprotein(a). We don't test for this in the US very much (yet?), but if you're one of the 1 in 5 people with a high number- it's genetic! - then find out NOW so you can avoid a stupid stroke or dumb heart attack. www.heart.org/en/health-to...

heart.orgLipoprotein(a)Lp(a) is a genetic independent risk factor for heart disease. Knowing your Lp(a) levels can help you reduce your risk of heart disease for you or someone you love.

A lot of folks have very thoughtfully forwarded me a trailer for a "Wing Commander Remake". I am sorry to report that this is not genuine; it's a crypto bro who has found Howard Day's open source "Wingleader" assets and is vibe coding them to launder their reputation.

Kaori Mizuhashi is the original voice of Navi the fairy, a voice that many of us grew up with. It sounds like she's returning to reprise the role in the Japanese version, nearly 28 years later. Clip of an old promotional video for Ocarina of Time where she guided you, fully voiced.

Immigrants don't just "look" Latino. The basis for the deportation surges is white supremacy, which means that they are coming for everyone who is not white. Full stop. If you're apathetic toward the mass deportation surge and are not white, you are hurting your own communities.
