Upgrades is one thing, but companies charging extra $$ to software unlock features a device is already physically capable of from factory is such a greedy business model.
wtf Google is actually trying to charge money to employees to sleep AT work. This would never make any sense and especially not from one of the biggest companies in the world https://news.yahoo.com/google-takes-page-twitters-book-203600727.html

once in a while search for *.dmp on your computer, you might find yourself with several hundred Mbs in crash dumps across several software that you don't need anymore
this will probably be forever my all time favourite photo of a programmer showing their code. Margaret Hamilton, Apollo Software Engineer showing the printed version of the code that took humanity to the moon.
a "go to" plugin for Aseprite so we can quickly go to a specific layer or tag with a press of a shortcut (Ctrl+G), super useful. https://thkaspar.itch.io/go-to #gamedev #art #pixelart

started watching The Middle and it’s the first thing in months/years(?) that has given me a nostalgic cozy feel. I think last one was Midnight Dinner. If you liked Malcolm in The Middle this is the same formula but quite watchable https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1442464/
Also 20m episodes, easier to digest and I can watch between breaks or if short on time.

Well that was fast, considering the judge decided on Xbox favor very recently I mean.
bring back TV shows with 20 minute episodes!!

saw on birdsite, it's crazy they don't even fully make the props. there's an entire art department being swollen by this. I get that it's probably "cheaper" and faster, but those VFX people are being overworked for stuff that could be distributed.
the cool thing is that hardware can now run older games in software renderer as fast as hw rendering used to. never quite looks as good and/or some graphical features missing due to hardware constraints at the time though.
was taking the DuckDuckGo new browser for a test and this looks like a really neat feature, unsure how well it works though, but detected on youtube at least.
