  • i joined beehaw and bluesky in the same week. i think it’s fun! lots of artists and indie game devs on there. i didn’t use twitter and don’t really like mastodon, so i don’t have any point of comparison. seems to me that moderation is lacking and/or apathetic. there’s been a heavy focus on US political issues. there’s a lot of stuff that i don’t want to see, but i mute often and that has improved my browsing experience. it’s been more friendly and welcoming than pretty much any other social media site i’ve tried so far. i also do not prefer microblogging platforms, but i’ve been having such a hard time with hateful comments across various platforms in the past few months, bluesky has been refreshing for me in that sense.



  • sigh… isn’t this more or less the same thing that Reddit did with their API fees? look how well that turned out for them.

    Unity is an extremely flawed game engine with unsolvable memory management issues. Most game devs choose to go with Unity because it’s cheap, and then end up getting a lot of complaints because of the previously mentioned unsolvable memory issues.

    IMO Unreal is the better game engine, in pretty much every aspect. i haven’t checked out Godot yet, but based on all the hype i’m seeing and their prioritizing accessibility, it seems to be a great choice.



  • rich person threatens legal action because he is losing income due to his own actions. got it.

    Yaccarino, a highly respected TV advertising executive, was appointed in May with the task of restoring relationships with advertisers a priority. In 2021, advertising accounted for 90% of X’s revenue but that income stream has been hit by companies pausing ad spending over doubts over Musk’s leadership.

    i’m also curious how long Linda Yaccarino is going to last. she’s been around since May, given the job of cleaning up messes after Elon. her pay and benefits are probably very good, but what’s the real cost of this bullshit? is it worth it? is it possible for her mental health to remain in good condition while she deals with this? we’ll see!
