Prepare For Warp update 2.0.6 is now live! So many great things added. If you haven't checked out this game yet, buy or wishlist today - for the next few days it will be 20% off.
So that was a new thing... Went out for my regular 1.5mi walk and spontaneously jogged about 0.5mi to 0.75mi of it. 🏃

For the entire month of March, all proceeds of my game sales after storefront cuts will be donated toward humanitarian relief efforts in Ukraine.
The reckless and reprehensible shelling of an active nuclear power plant puts the entire world in danger and demonstrates a thorough psychosis within the invaders' leadership. This invasion must stop NOW.

I do not usually wax political here, but the global situation completely warrants it.

Smiling Cat stands firmly with the Proud and Epic people of the Ukraine during this unjustifiable invasion that is being visited upon them.

Definitely don't settle for that lame 1.5%, 3%, or even 5% raise this year. Especially if your employer has been bragging about how well it is doing. With inflation the way it is, in real money terms that's actually a pay cut. Better yet, start finding ways to work for yourself.
Sounds brilliant

My ❤️ goes out to all of the indie artists that were affected by hit-piece and all of the other IP-stealing that has occurred because of this tech. I know it is 💔 to see your work exploited for profit and not really sensibly be able to do anything about it.

My negative sentiment against this tech has been building over the last couple of years. The hit-piece fiasco this last week was the absolute tipping point - this is not just about a few bad actors in the space. The tech inherently incentivizes bad actors.

Um... who doesn't get what now? That is some neutron-star-class density right there.

I encourage everyone to do what you can to help during this global ordeal. If you have spare compute power, join foldingathome.org. If you have a 3D printer, find out what printable supplies are needed locally. Find ways to pitch in. #WeWillPersevere
