I use a specialised hammer-and-anvil system that produces an audible notification whenever someone use it.

Ah, but you see the AI let us reduce headcount for full time employees. Reducing the budget for full time salaries.

Now we just spend twice as much on contractors and consultants, but that’s a different budget, so it’s not my problem.

Fancy pants. The only time I got online to check my emails was when the travelling bitwarden came around, usually in the spring. Unless the winter was hard and the pass was blocked.

I blasted through the campaign. If it’s anything like 4 I’m expecting 4000 good community levels.

IXE. It’s new and fun

I was looking for 3 months each time. I have like 15 years exp!

The article (as far as I read) fails to mention the that layoffs have hit then entire tech sector. Not just games.

I lost my job (iOS dev and actually a games dev job) twice in ‘24. I don’t think it is necessarily a reflection of the games industry.

There are some really nice games this year, if you know where to look. I’m playing Uncle Chop’s Rocket Repair and it’s awesome. So fun, so inventive, great visuals, mechanics and soundtrack.

Deadlock has also gotten a fair chunk of my time. I scratches the same itch as DOTA and a little bit of CS too.

Creeper World got a new instalment, too. Different from the 4 mainline games, it’s new and fresh and fun.

The internet has ruined me to the point I’m looking for either Saddam or Loss.

Bugs mean fresh and no pesticides!

BUGS GOOD!

It’s like finding soil on your tubers. It’s better to have to wash it off.

Why would you expect tap water to kill bacteria?

You’re washing bugs and dirt off.

It’s only $99/ year!

Shootas Blood & Teef seems to be well regarded.

Yeah, I’m guilty of this tbh. It’s just the massive unknown of leaving something you’ve been so close to for literally the majority of my life.

It’s scary!

You can recommend what you like. As soon as Windows 10 can’t play the latest games I’m off to Linux.

Eat my whole ass, Microsoft.
