Pumpin’! 🔥
calling it now
Maybe gradient-blaster.grahambates.com could be of help. The “Amiga OCS/ESC interlace” target works with 15 bit, too
STAR-INTRO 🤩
Great job of giving so nostalgic and modern vibes at the same time
I get my news from a reliable source
Nice mood! It’s giving “Darkness Lay Your Eyes Upon Me”

I look at #Amiga "Cecconoid" published in 2024 by Thalamus. It uses a dual playfield mode, with CPU updating particles, the blitter modifies particle code, and hardware sprite multiplex with the copper.

Valentine’s Day, isn’t that cheesy? Well, yes… 🐭❤️🧀

Poking fun at “Whoah, that LLM trained on natural language talks like a person!” is nice and all, but that meme could me more niche and retro! 😅 #sca #amiga
The suspense after track 82! 😅 Thank goodness it was the “good” sound!
Sunday is Superball time – can’t wait! 🍿🤩

The pressure to do an update increases… 😅 vAmigaWeb has advanced quite a bit since the last release, and I would love to cook up new debugging features interacting with the vAmiga core
Ah, Martin is on Bluesky, too, so thanks again! This made my day.
Also, obligatory shout-out to vAmigaWeb and vAmiga, the awesome projects all of Coppenheimer is based on. And thanks to Daniel of amiga-news.de for pointing me to this video!
Awesome: Coppenheimer being used in Martin Piper’s latest behind-the-scene tech videos! www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1AP...
Weird: I was checking where my comment went in a anonymous browser tab (it’s gone), and auto-translated audio is the default now on YouTube?!
Nice! Or, easy to remember and applicable for darker backgrounds: Just use 0x44 and 0x88, mix until stylish 🙂

Why are there so few snow flakes in the mouse pointer archive?
You can draw one yourself with the editor (hint hint), but I have a hunch that there are many disks I still need to dig out… Time to take a closer look at .lha, .adz, and .rar files 🤔
What a ride! 🔥 🫡
Some background and statistics: heckmeck.de/amigastyle/a...
Not mentioned there: I only had to remove three swastikas, and found way less genitals than expected… 😅
Check out this mouse pointer!
And the Amiga Pointer Archive, a museum of all Amiga mouse pointers – so far! 🙂
The new project is nearly ready, but it doesn’t scale down nicely on the 1st gen iPhone SE. 😢
That’s a no-go. That device is barely ten years old! (Which is, by chance, the very thing sane people would say to dismiss the issue… 😅)

Handling strings and blobs in the browser is hard – you don’t only need JavaScript, but also *checks notes* Go, SCSS, C#, VBnet, and… Delphi! 🤓
Ooooh! There it is! Twinkle, twinkle, little… retro sizecoding Christmas star! :)
