Doing some digital spring cleaning and I found an archive of every minecraft screenshot I took from about 2012-2016 whilst developing stuff. Oh boy :D I think this was my first attempt at putting armour on mobs. Look at him 🥺

Fellow tech nerds: We (Ruffle) just noticed that a bunch of websites started including the phrase "Today <date> you use ruffle!"

We have literally no idea why. Smells like some malicious injection of some kind. They don't use Ruffle, at least. Any ideas?

google.com/search?q=%22To…

We figured it out! The chrome extension "Flash Player Enabler" (a repackaged Ruffle, no longer on the store) added this text to all pages. Someone with the extension used a WYSIWYG editor or similar, and then that text gets added to websites by mistake.

I almost fell for a scam site today, pretending to be the homepage of an OSS project that I was looking for. It looked convincing until I scrolled to read more text. LLM slop is getting scary good at "looks good at a glance". I don't even know _how_ they managed this.

This was the first hit for me when I googled DxWnd, a tool I heard about to help me play an old game on a modern computer. The other hit I found was a different LLM generated website for this tool. The commonality? They both have the same email. Googling that and... holy crap!

There's hundreds, maybe thousands of these. I know many of these projects & even I'd be fooled by some of these sites at a glance. OSS projects are under attack in mass, and I can only assume it's for malware.
I've not heard about this on such a big scale before, I'm in shock!

I'm alive! Kinda! Ish!
I've managed to go to the mojang office 5 whole times this year! That's a big achievement for my health and I'm pretty proud.
I'm hard at work on [things] for Minecraft (Java) - I might even talk about some of them soon over at 🦋dinnerbone.com 👀

To those mailing/tweeting/DMing/etc me blaming & insulting me about some Minecraft stuff: I've been off work for 1.5 years for my health. I physically can't get out of bed most of the time and it's getting worse by the day. I have nothing to do with anything you're upset over.

Oh I also forgot to mention that I just passed my 10 year anniversary working at Mojang and thus on Minecraft!

It was in February 😅

It doesn't feel like 10 years. Gosh. I was a teenager when I started modding Minecraft and now I'm 30. Oh dear. Time is escaping!

Well, the time has come.

My 5 year old son just asked me how to mod Minecraft.

👀

Got a lot of great feedback on the inventory effect list, thanks everyone! I'll play around with some of the suggestions tomorrow 👀

I redesigned the effects list for today's snapshot, so that they're visible even with the recipe book open & even if you don't have much screen space. Check it out and let me know any thoughts on how it looks? ❤️
(icons only is when there's not enough space for the big list)

Going live (first time in a lil while, sorry!) with some Minecraft!
We're going to upgrade the already ludicrous storage and add a giant sorter on top!
Come join and say hi? <3

I think I'm coming up to the 1 year anniversary of @tele2sweden charging me for something I don't have/want and they've told me multiple times before that they'll cancel it but won't refund me. Clearly didn't even cancel it.

Back to the multihour line phone queues...

:(

The last time I called them and spoke to some supervisor, he told me "I don't care" and to contact a lawyer. I would not recommend this company. They just bought out my ISP though so I'm now somewhat stuck.

I also fixed the super annoying thing where you're typing a message to someone whilst you're in bed and suddenly your chat closes because it's day.
The amount of times that's upset me in the last few weeks alone… oh gosh.

What's your most annoying tiny thing in Minecraft?

Fixing the most important issues 😎

And fixing minor things too I guess. 👀

First task of the first day back to work...

There's two things that bugged me that I can't fix though...

The first is this texture misalignment, how did we let this happen @JasperBoerstra?! :'(

The second is that glass & redstone lamps give off "smashed glass" sound effects whenever you silk touch them.

I feel like that should probably only be whenever they broke, and we should have a different sound for "successfully" breaking them? @slamp0000 what do you think?
