You may or may not have heard of the gross Android 14 bug currently affecting people with multiple user accounts on their phone. I'm in this picture, hi, this is me.
When I heard about the bug, I stopped using the second profile and everything seemed to be fine. A narrow escape, right?!
Alas, no.
This morning I saw something vaguely amusing, and thought "my friends at UKCasual will chortle quietly at this". Tried to take a photo...camera crashed. And again. And that's apparently it! I now have no access to storage on my phone and am left hoping Google come up with a fix asap.
Not even going to tell you what the amusing photo was, so ner.
How's your day going? 😩

I'm off on holiday tomorrow and will have basically no internet for over a week. So naturally I'm downloading all the media I can think of, just in case of downtime.
Thought it might be fun to solicit some musical suggestions from you lot to help expand my mind. So here we are. What's your ultimate all-time #1 album?
My tastes are pretty eclectic* so feel free to suggest basically anything, and maybe I'll update after holiday and judge what I thought of them all. Or maybe not, you know, that sounds like potentially quite a lot of effort.
Cheers in advance!
* mostly on the alternative / rock side of things but also love various kinds of dance sub-genre on occasion and of course the genre-that-isn't-a-genre-at-all, Eurovision
I guess whoever is up earliest on a Thursday gets to make it, and isn't being up really early cause enough for complaint in itself? Hmm, this is far too deep philosophy for so early in the morning.
Anyway. My main complaint this week is that our new neighbours have got a new tiny puppy. It's a little bulldog type thing I believe, but absolutely tiny so even the couple of glimpses I've had of it running around the back garden it's been mostly hidden in the grass.
The complain is not the existence of a new tiny neighbour, it's that I can't think of a not-socially awkward way of meeting it.
I demand to meet the puppy!
Anyway how's your Thursday? Get it all off your chest before the weekend, that's the healthy way.

OP posted their unpopular opinion that game devs shouldn't be using their development time on making games accessible for people with disabilities.
But check out the top comments, which have turned into basically a handy checklist of all the simple accessibility features we can easily add to our games!
Thanks, OP 😄
Sorry in advance
Since Lemmy is a terrible influence, I’ve been convinced to give RSS another go as a means to get at the news that interests me interesting stuff that I’d otherwise miss. It’s actually working surprisingly well, so I thought I’d share some gamedev-specific resources that I’ve subscribed to so far.
My current approach for the feed is to subscribe to basically anything that looks interesting, then prune it later if it turns out to be no good or be too spammy. So I’d very much appreciate suggestions of blogs, magazines, video channels, podcasts, whatever is RSS-able!

Magazines
Blogs

Podcasts
I don’t really do podcasts but would like to get into them more, so any recommendations for this section very welcome!
Videos
Did you know you can still subscribe to YouTube channels via RSS? This should help with the problem of YT trying to decide what we actually want to see, versus what we’ve literally told it we want to see. So far I’ve RSS-followed:
Plus a couple of devlog channels by members of this community that I’d like to make sure I don’t miss:
If any of you reading this have your own devlog channel, please share, I’d love to check it out too!

For anyone thinking of joining the RSS revolution, I’m trying out Inoreader which I’d seen recommended a fair bit around Lemmy. Not too sold on it yet, but the free plan is a decent enough start.
