YJencrypted GBA cart dumping on GBFlash in less than a minute with no effort required!

DISCMASTER just added support for screencam files. What are screencam files? Super old video files that means we now get 1997 reviews of websites.

it appears that i have about 1.5 months left of being twenty nine. after careful deliberation, i have decided i am not going to turn thirty. instead, i am going to turn twenty ten.

Working on a swanshell (nileswan cart menu) update to celebrate the upcoming Friday batch - got any feature requests? One that has already made it in is an option to automatically open the last launched directory on console startup.

it is unfortunate that according to aliexpress, humans only come in the following three sizes

wake me up when they've figured out mermaid HRT

re: what is the earliest game that let's you be non-binary, someone responded with this: "wizap ankoku no ou" on SNES, a game that lets you literally pick your gender on a spectrum. unassailably cool!

Finished "Goodbye Lara". Thinking about it now. Though I do think I liked that ending a lot.

NitrousTracker 0.7.0 beta 5 is out, fixing a few UI/UX issues that have been reported. Download at codeberg.org/NitrousTrack... I am aware that the pace of development feels really slow compared to the modern day zeitgeist... We're blocked on one of the key devs having a case of Real Life.

uploader.jp, a file hosting service, will be terminating its services on november 25 23:59. this is going to threaten every free japanese doujin game on there. download and preserve them if you can fxtwitter.com/uploader_jp/...

Every single hobby I love has has been infected by slopped up and unserious software. It's exhausting. aftermath.site/ai-slop-hobbie...

I call these platforms "Big Bucket" social media and I think it's an inherently flawed model that creates an antisocial and neurotic site culture.

there's a reason why I will regularly in conversation refer to bluesky as twitter. cause it's just twitter from before Musk bought the website

I just saw a Steam review of a VN including the amazing phrase: "I felt like I was actually experiencing the emotions"

Bad day to launch my PHP based certificate authority

Wish someone would release patches for my vulnerabilities

new post: Why Maeda Jun Matters mimidoshima.neocities.org/main/posts/2... i think everyone should know why this is a tragedy for anyone who cares about japanese media, not just visual novels.

“The internet is a store but it used to be a library” hits me like a slug to the chest

otaku trivia! before "onnanoko ni naritai" was invented to great fanfare, non-conforming fantasies held by young fans of japanese pop culture while growing up had to be channeled through somewhat less blatant songs. one famous example is www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8As...

Bring back Kemono Friends. Take me to Japari Park bro I don't want to be here right now

*inhales gas leak* is there a way to receive counseling from the halimede account specifically. i'm not sure if there exist therapists who could see through me as well as that woman does

inspiring: newcomer's first task is to fix a fired worker's vibecoded mess in a way vibecoding has just created a job. in a roundabout way.

it's simple: everyone on earth should make at least one game in bitsy, twine, puzzlescript, zzt, rpgmaker 2k/3, and pico-8. all of them have robust tooling, smart creative constraints, browser exports, and lively communities.

No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

If you peek behind the curtain of basically any niche hobbyist community involved with technology you'll find this same story everywhere. imo it reflects a cultural obsessions with output and ignoring what was actually enriching about these projects: community and skills-building.

With Epic Games in the news for dumb reasons yet again, I figure now is a good time to evangelize the good word of ZZT. Tim already made a tool that "democratizes" gamedev to the point that anybody could do it, and 35 years later it still has a healthy community of creators free from AI's blight.

Earlier today, Dragon Quest's creator Yuji Horii vibe coded an adventure game in just 30 minutes. I've spent the last few months creating a Dragon Quest romhack. Here's why AI can't create art, and AI fueled projects are destroying the creative process:

missed National Coming Out Day. but came across this screenshot of the mass email i sent 12 years ago!

prefer analogue CDs, the sound is much warmer

A pretty big emulation milestone - The NEC V20/V30 CPU has now been emulated at the microcode level. #retrocomputing #emulation

In C23 variables have pronouns and misgendering is undefined behavior. And no you can't just always use they, smartass. It literally won't compile

This isn't a joke www.gov.uk/product-safe...

looking for recommendations on reading i could do (books, articles) written by people or communities whose skills had been obsoleted throughout history about how they dealt with it
