We have less than 8 days to finish our fundraiser to help pay for an emergency Kidney procedure and we have $7.6k left to raise.

If you have anything to spare during this time it would help a lot and prevent us from going into medcial debt, shares and generosity help us a lot!

This program was HAND-CODED by Toni Baker, on behalf of Andromeda, who successfully managed to avoid giving me an assembler until a week before completion.

How amazing is this? VGHF

- found a never-before-seen NES prototype
- obtained the rights
- finished the game using period-accurate tools
- is releasing it physically through iam8bit as a charity fundraiser.

I get this mistake but this is being misreported because everyone is dropping the A from DEIA. Calibri is 100% a more accessible font than times Roman. It's the reason the state department adopted it, and the reason Rubio dropped it. This isn't confusion; it's a specific attack on disability rights.

Brief window into selling decade-old games on Steam: my sales flatlined from 2022 to 2024, but have recovered in 2025, seemingly because of being on Bluesky. The increased attention here has drawn the notice of streamers who played Sir and so on, leading to wishlists and sales. Odd business.

It's pretty yummy for meatloaf. There is also a "reloaded" version but I haven't tried it.

refering to ursula k. le guin's thoughts on tech for a videogame mechanics discussion

walls are a mechanic, turning is a mechanic, hitstun is a mechanic, jumping is a mechanic, physics are a mechanic, a ton of load-bearing mechanics aren't really that flashy and they don't need to be

I've made this one a bunch. But I'm not a freak. I do not grind my own meat.

What a great listen. Someone whose brain operates at a level where I can barely even relate – but crossing paths with Atari, Sega and Sony at such pivotal times results in some great insights.

I picked up No Players Online both to support it after the DMCA thing and because I wanted to see how they expanded what was in the Haunted PS1 Demo Disk version, but no one told me it went all-in on the 90s OS/Internet as a framing device! I love this stuff.

A Sankey diagram shows how a total of the 8.3 billion tonnes of plastic ever produced by humanity has ended up either being totally discarded, incinerated or still in use. 31% are still in use.  The remainder have been dumped or burnt.

Guess what % of plastics have been #recycled? No prizes :(
