I’m happy to announce the release of a new open source 3D physics engine called Box3D. I’ve been working on this project for a few years now, but it represents over 20 years of experience writing physics engines for games. Read more here: box2d.org/posts/2026/06/anno…

Hardware engineers watching all their efficiency gains get canceled out by lazy software programming
Meme of Giancarlo Esposito as “Stan Edgar” on the series “The Boys.” In this frame, he is looking to the side with a incredulously deadpan facial expression.

UE5 has all the foundational problems UE3 had and it still persists. From bloated actor classes to components with mega overheads that eats up memory. Everything UE does, other in-house engines like Anvil, Cryengine, etc does way better and are performant without stutters.

Unreal 5 is a great engine that allows artists to get technical empowering games to be more innovative than ever. bad performance comes from poor planning from the start, and not enough engineering staff, not inherently from the engine.

It’s 2026… game developers, can we please stop with the “oh no i’ve lost all my items/ powers for some reason and now I have to do this section of the game in order to regain them all” mission 😑😑😑

It's easy to call AAA soulless, but are you brave enough to call most indies soulless as well?

Families = 1 man + 1 woman + their children. That is how a nation is sustained and how its future is secured. Other forms of coexistence are free to exist, but they do not serve the same purpose. Let us not confuse the two. 🇭🇺

You don't think most jobs are fake? Elon fired 80% of Twitter and it runs better than before. Elon is a genius, but also clearly ~80% of Twitter were doing fake jobs

It’s not ‘vegan leather’, it’s plastic. It’s not ‘vegan wool’, it’s plastic. It’s not ‘vegan leather’, it’s plastic. It’s not ‘vegan fur’, it’s plastic. It’s all plastic, and every time you wash it, or damage it, or try to dispose of it, that plastic ends up in the water, in the earth, in the air. Meanwhile, wool is 100% renewable and biodegradable. Reject veganism. Use wool. Save the planet.
