Don't fret. It's still awesome here. You're cool.

Before the hype dies, I just want to thank everyone who I got to meet at Revision 2026! I hadn't submitted a demo but was fully absorbing the sensations of the scene which really was something special.

I was refining bits of my channel and promoting it a little bit. A recap video is coming SOON!

This is brilliant!

This is cool but Mastodon is very cliquey and resistant to typical social media users. Curious to see if anything comes of it.

🤭

Lovely outline and shadow work too

Very curious!

Enjoy it! 🍎

Ooh I like the typography here btw

Playing the old Screamer which hasn’t aged well - clip a car slightly and you drop 8 places, I remember loving it at the time though. Feels a bit like a Temu Ridge Racer now. The new Screamer looks very interesting though!

Drifting in Colour (Original Chiptune) YouTube video by MelonadeM

I usually feel a bit meh about AY music but this absolutely oozes style, such great musicianship - give it a chance and turn it up! www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIir...

I picked up one of these and they're really neat! <3

Papoose "Agent Provocateur" (50 Cent Diss) YouTube video by Papoose

I don't really post about hip hop but this 50 Cent diss by Papoose is relentless, excellent lyricism and that: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucmW...

it's beautiful

A red Macaw parrot sitting on a branch, lovingly rendered in chunky pixels and an eye-searing fully saturated RGB only palette. Yes, it's Teletext.

I made a new old thing! Claude Code helped me update some ancient C for converting images to Teletext into modern Python and add a host of new preprocessing options.

Consider this a beta test. Feedback welcome!

I was just about ready for a funandexcitingvideo as well! 🚀

Doom Squashware Edition (id Software, 1994) YouTube video by Jinwoo Gaming TV

Oh here's a better video with sound:

Doom On One Floppy (Bootable Squashware Doom) YouTube video by fragglet

I only saw this recently - Doom on a Floppy (DOOF) - the first episode on one bootable floppy disk:

Part of me thinks if Doom sizecoding became a thing and used something like QUOD's texture synthesis, that would be mad!

I've seen some proof of concept generated video that is utterly unsettling, it's so convincing. I'm certain it will cause a huge uptick in parasocial AI relationships.

Meta Platforms feeds:
- Fights in fast food joints
- Slop / Brainrot
- Rage bait
- Thirst traps
- Artists trapped in the content grind
- Charlie Kirk memes

Bluesky:
- Cool decompilations of retro games
- Amazing pixel shaders
- New tracker music
- Discussion of tech
- Rational AI talk
- Funny shit

Well, this makes total sense now.

Damn, I didn't know this. It's like Excel!

I'll definitely watch this, thanks Bent! :)

I tried earnestly to get people onto Signal and I think in reality three of my closer contacts use it and one group chat.

Anyone in music basically just moves in lockstep with Meta platforms now and occasionally YouTube and it's annoying seeing musicians I actually like have to post twice a day.

I've got a whopping blocklist for Bluesky containing divisive topics and people and it's been hugely effective. I really enjoy Bluesky as a result, it's full of retro gaming, art, music and tech content for me. No Trum/p, Farag/e, Elo/n, Epstei/n, manospher/e, and other stuff. :)

I’ve once again relegated Instagram and Facebook to an old phone that stays at home now.

Such hateful divisive platforms, I get bombarded with horrible content of all kinds and feel my friends are kept locked in their grief with unhelpful content presenting as justified or empowering. Enough! 😤

I’ve relegated it to an old phone that stays at home now.

Facebook is constant Reform slop, instagram is constant rage bait and all musician accounts are posting tepid ice breaker conversation content now.

Good work! 🔈🔊🔉

Another thing is when Eurogamer took a stance against Arc Raiders using generative AI the review got downvoted massively but then DF get the same when they endorse it - does seem a bit inconsistent.
