These people exists. Donโ€™t waste any more energy on it and block/ignore. (Thatโ€™s my advice to myself when I get the urge to set some random person straight)

Do any of my followers know how to contact the developers behind Commodore OS Vision? Didn't get any wiser on their website. #c64 #commodore #commodoreos

SID Factory II SID Factory II is a cross-platform editor for composing music that will work on a Commodore 64. It uses the reSID emulator and is currently in open BETA. Here you can find the latest builds for dowโ€ฆ

Great! I think that's ok, if you look at how the official release is packaged, the DLL is also next to the EXE. blog.chordian.net/sf2. Do you have a Github account? I could add you so you can make a PR, or you can send the patch some other way.

Here's the issue github.com/micheldebree... I put all the info in there. It will take you to the repo. Obliged if you could take a look. Upgrade for macOS was just a matter of replacing the dependency, but I have no easy way to test it for Windows.

Ace talk from Barn at the Centre for Computing History in the UK on the history of the #demoscene , early music software and his history in the scene/career in VGM :) will be of great interest to fellow ludomusicologists too! <3 \o_

We did Sprite memes in the summer. Now we will be posting some #Soundchip memes. Specifically, #SID. I didn't make this but much respect to the creator of this one.

I did start a sort of โ€˜alpha release channelโ€™ to be able to release my tweaking faster. It now has fullscreen support and a c64 font (more text on screen) if youโ€™re interested.

I am afraid an official release is not coming soon because of, well, life. The drivers are really Thomasโ€™s territory because they are a careful trade off between features and efficiency. You can always share your tweaks of course and develop your own drivers.

Ease in vibrato sounds cool. I usually use 2 commands to go from slight vibrato to heavier vibrato over time. Is it something like that?

Well I only marginally work on it, the good stuff is really all done by Thomas (Laxity). I wonder why you canโ€™t export. Probably the meta data doesnโ€™t line up with your changes anymore?

Oh hehe. What did you hack into the player? Just curious because I am on the dev team.

I messed around with the SIDFactory player and can't (yet) make a SID out of this. My homage to Rambo loader by Galway. Had to YT because size. I hope you like it, even if it's tantamount to cursing in the church. :) #c64

โšก๏ธIโ€™m looking for a job

After nearly two years of freelancing, Iโ€™d love to get back on board. Iโ€™m a digital designer, UI+UX, with a complementary skillset of art direction and motion design.

DM & letโ€™s have a talk.

A Navajo weaving hanging on a wall. The pattern appears abstract: thick white lines in varying directions on a black background. There are some reddish-orange diamonds near the edges, as well as a few thin outlined rectangles. There are three larger squares with a double-H pattern inside. Overall, the pattern looks a bit like an aerial view of roads in a strange ancient city. Thanks to First American Art Magazine for this photo.

Celebrated Navajo (Dinรฉ) artist Marilou Schultz recently completed a striking weaving. Although this rug may appear abstract, it is a representation of the wiring inside an integrated circuit. It shows the 555 timer, said at one point to be the world's most popular IC. Let's take a closer look...

Jamming out on a Saturday with "We Come in Peace" by Censor Design & Fairlight. Excellent SID grooves, pure pixel magic, and addictive scene energy. If aliens dropped this at Revision 2018, weโ€™d welcome them with open arms!

TL;DR; Just make sure you put the correct shapes in the right proportions in their proper positions. Then add detail, color and shading and make it look good.

Thinking a lot about #AI in metaphors. Like if a human spoke to you like ChatGPT does, would you let him into your home or would you consider him capable of casually murdering your entire family? For me itโ€™s the latter. #AI #LLM

Missed my stop because the Rotterdam subway train had an off-by-one error; each stop was called out one stop later. Should look out the window more.
