TIL that Paradox had disowned Star Trek: Infinite about 7 months after release. No more updates, no DLC.

So I guess it's back to mods for Stellaris.

#StarCitizen 3.23 wipe confirmed on SCL today. aUEC and rented ships were mentioned specifically.

100% expected this. They explained that it's for their analytics regarding their changed economy, which is obvious and was fully expected but there we go!

I now have a permanent set up for my flight sticks, although I moved my 32 inch monitor to that side and I’m now using an old 24 inch monitor is my main, so that will be the next upgrade

And yet another developer effectively bites the dust. I haven't played Deliver Us Mars yet, but quite enjoyed Deliver Us the Moon.

I've had better days

I've spent all morning trying to explain to someone that when they want a grid of several dozen logos, and some of the logos are 300x80px, and some are 1000x1000px, that either they have to give up on the idea of nice neat rows, or they have to accept that the logos aren't all going to be a consistent size, or they have to accept that some of the logos are going to be squished.

And they just don't get it.

I just realized it is time for me to get going on the monthly recap post on my blog and I don't think I wanna.

And since those are about the only things I write these days, I may just be done with blogging.

22 years is a pretty good run, I guess. My first post, complaining about how slow blogger was so I was going to move to self-hosted, is from 5/13/2002

Now I feel like I should go for 25 years, though... LOL

This sentiment brought to you by thoughts on "what would I be doing now if not for the Internet" because I'm a web app dev. I got a degree in biology, but the "industry" of science really sucked ass back then. I worked at a liquor store after college, and have found myself kind of wanting to go back to the simplicity of retail, so I might still BE working at the liquor store had the Internet not aged as poorly as it has.

I often wish to take a trip to the timeline where the Internet wasn't invented.

Not that I don't love you all, wherever you are in the world, but I just HATE the bullshit even more.

“So much of the show is practical. And had we been more one-for-one about every little detail, the show would have had to be 80% CG,” Wagner says. “At that point, why not just make a cartoon?"

Must be another eclipse with that amount of shade....

Hello 4am... well, now 5am. Nothing like a good 'ol alien abduction dream to wake you up and unnerve you.

Y'all. The most petty political move happened today at my #vampirethemasquerade #LARP, and I'm technically the reason why it happened.

Context first: I play an Anarch that works at a radio station in a Camarilla domain of the city controlled by an elder Toreador. Prior to the Toreador's acquisition of the domain, my character struck a deal with one of the local Cam Lasombra to ensure the station would be protected if things ever went to hell, and they could continue their work.
