@DGoodayle I've never run a studio but I heard a good rule of thumb is every person employed costs althe company around double their annual wage. So it's easy 1,000,000+ based on that.

Played Cubitos with mini-me and she loved it. It's a lovely little dice building, push your luck, racing game with lots of variety for replayability and a very cute and amusing theme. Just need to find more people to play it with!

Just watched @veritasium's video on micromouse robots and now I'm wondering whether I could make one. And then while looking up stuff online I stumbled on Japanese Sumo Robots. Oh no. This isn't good

@SirEelBiscuits, shall we set up a work league? 🤣

F**K OFF. That's the only swearing I'll be doing.

Dear BBC, a gentle reminder that this is written on the side of your fucking headquarters. If I were you, I’d be sacking the chairman who withheld the truth, NOT the presenter who told it.

You haven't known pain if you've never delved into Unreal's networked character movement system

[Ralph Tittensor @RalphTittensor]

@AlessiaNigretti @DGoodayle It's only taken me about 4 years to get a good understanding of it. And I still discover new quirks all the time.

🤪 I'm fine btw. 🤪

@EmberFirehair It's good! I enjoyed it all (and am also a Supernatural fan)

@jpsmythe Never encourage children to stick a spoon into a bowl with an active electric mixer. Recipe for disaster. Running the kitchen like running the country. 😉

@tom_forsyth 'I know, I'll count instructions to time my code instead of profiling it."

[Ralph Tittensor @RalphTittensor]

@tom_forsyth I really don't understand programmers who avoid using a debugger. It's like a woodworker avoiding using a saw because you can chisel everything. Why avoid using a tool that can save you time? It's crazy to hamstring yourself over a belief your code (and other code) is perfect.

[Ralph Tittensor @RalphTittensor]

Totally normal behaviour running a company! It's a good thing billionaires are just as normal and well adjusted as the rest of us, otherwise we would be in trouble.

@DGoodayle On pc Gears of War tactics is surprisingly good. Warhammer 40k Mechanius as well. Finally, the Mario + Rabbids games on Switch. All better than their IP may suggest if you are not into their setting.

[Ralph Tittensor @RalphTittensor]

Wow Andor had a slow start (which I don't mind) but it's getting better and better each episode.

@HSBC_UK As a rule, bad practice to interact with unvalidated source via social media when dealing with bank details. Not going to DM you, I'm using this as my avenue of complaint.

[Ralph Tittensor @RalphTittensor]

@HSBC_UK I can't log into online banking because you reset my mobile app so I can't generate a security code. I can't get access to online support because I can't log into my account because I can't generate a code. I have no other recourse but to phone because you broke my app.
