Amazing news for id software! They have UNIONIZED!

I'm still waiting for a 2.5" 7200 RPM hdd to come in to test with before I can confirm if they'll work as well. Right now SSDs are 100% a no go. The exploit targets a race condition between when the HDD is issued a read command and when it replies...

@burgerbecky was an Interplay co-founder, a true pioneer, and one of the finest low-level coders in our industry. She loved computers and programming her whole life, and that passion stayed with her through decades of game development. RIP.

@jamesrcole @ID_AA_Carmack Em dash detected, opinion discarded

@SkyeHDD @ID_AA_Carmack This idea that merely mentioning someone’s former name is some horrible act that could terribly harm the person in question — by pushing this idea you’re actively encouraging people to become extremely fragile. It’s harming the people you claim to be helping.

He was already well into a storied career, but I first knew “Burger” Bill Heineman as a big fish in the small pond of the Apple IIGS community at the start of the 90s, known for doing state of the art low level optimization on a platform with very limited commercial prospects. In 1992, the programmers in the early Id crew went to Kansas Fest, the grass roots Apple II convention, to show Silas Warner, the author of Castle Wolfenstein for the Apple II, our new take with Wolfenstein 3D. Someone seeing it for the first time on our laptop made the awed comment “Wow, I thought Bill Heineman was a hot programmer!” and I took that as a very substantial compliment. We started working with Bill shortly after that, and I really enjoyed talking shop and kicking around ideas with him. We had a lot of overlap in interests and skills, but he had impressive areas outside of my scope – Want to learn the details of Japanese game hardware? Learn to read Japanese technical manuals. Want to develop games for them, but they won’t give you a dev kit? Build your own hardware dev kit. I was very good at dropping into any system environment and getting shit done fast. He was probably better. Masters of Doom has the details, which I don’t trust myself to rehash from memory, but our collaboration on the SNES port of Wolfenstein 3D completely blew up and left us in a bad position, forcing me to drop what I was doing and do the port myself. We were mad, but eventually it was water under the bridge, and we wound up working together on additional Id projects afterwards. It was a useful cautionary tale about how brilliant technical people don’t always make wise decisions in other parts of their life. Bill became Rebecca, and we had email and Twitter contacts (@burgerbecky) over the years. We finally ran into each other again virtually at the covid Kansas Fest (still going after all these years!) and had some fun back and forth on ancient technical topics. They were living in Dallas with Jennell Jaquays, who had been a designer at Id, and I had some intention of getting out for a visit, but it never happened. I respect how they stayed technical, current, and sharp far longer than most programmers manage, shipping games over 40+ years with many, many generations of hardware. The driving force was always clearly the love of the work. 🫡

@fknrdcls @ID_AA_Carmack And no one's impressed by you white knighting a full grown adult capable of making his own decisions who was also the CTO of Oculus. Stop infantilizing neurodivergent people

@SkyeHDD @ID_AA_Carmack Trying to chastise a neurodiverse individual for a (in your opinion) simple mistake is worse than "deadnaming". You are a terrible person, no one is impressed by your attempt at public shaming.

Here is a chance to win a Nintendo Switch Employee only copy of Celeste. There were only 50 made and the difference is the entire cover is foil instead of select areas. Feel free to like, retweet or follow! Winner chosen Friday at 11:59 PM!

@ArcadePosting ....I just realized what you mean lmao, no

@SkyeHDD Did anyone get your costume?

I am Birdbrain Teto

Opening this hard drive felt like I was releasing the Pharaoh's curse

"Instead of casting false accusations using vague decomp'd code snippets rather than the actual source code and issuing illegal/fraudulent DMCA claims, I'm going to continue to claim to add support for things but not actually implement them"

@OGX_Harcroft @PlayStationHaX "If everywhere you go smells like shit, look under your shoe"

@PlayStationHaX I can't speak for anyone else mentioned, but every single accusation that person made about myself is false. What's worse is the accuser knows they are false. Generally speaking if you think everyone except you is an asshole, it's time to look within on the asshole hunt.

I guess the Xbox scene is just as shady as the PlayStation scene 😱 lovemhz.com/blog/xbox-scen…

Another drive, the Silicon Power A55, was tested by @SkyeHDD and it also worked.
