Guess I’m rewatching GITS this weekend

That went well

Not gonna lie, I’m nervous エイエフ right now. It’s gonna be a fun event, but this is a very new world to me, and this is the first time since I first came to Japan in 2001 that someone asked me if I was in the right place :) But I’m determined to have fun even if I feel scared for literally no reason

TIL my favourite actor of all time is now doing ads for Wi-Fi

OK going to play a game. I did not read this article, but I’ll wager a guess that it’s going to be related to speculation execution of that PPC prefetch, based on nothing more than it being the only Xenon HW bug I can recall right now (plus the Spectre reference in the description)

reposting a 2018 twitter thread thats spookily related, from LittleBigPlanet 1: 2 weeks to gold, a Japanese QA tester started reliably crashing the game by leaving it on over night. We could not repro. Like you, days of confirmation of identical environment, os, hardware, etc; each attempt took /

welcome to the greatest day of my life

Ugh, Vivado finally gets some cheerful colours, and homeboy out here trying to ruin it for the rest of us

Time to go to war with key loss

Sigasi 2026.1 just dropped with my number one most wanted feature

Behold the least controversial statement ever made on the internet. For interested parties, you can buy this priceless work of art from BEEP in Akiba On the depressing side, if you ever want to know how crap humans are, our society chose beige PCs over this masterpiece

Had some more C64U fun this weekend. Tidied up my texture code, added some more REST commands and tried out looping the read from C64U to PC. It works, buts its a little slow (150 - 200ms per frame for the full 64k) but it works!

Found this box at work today. Not a legal expert but I think it might be a brand violation

My son Cosmos was walking to his toy when he saw a paper bag. He looked at the bag, at his toy, at the bag, at his toy. He was working out in real time that throwing the toy into the bag would be fun. Got the toy in his mouth, threw it up, and it landed in the bag first try. His proud face was magic

Do I not know what words mean anymore?

I starved my body of food and starved the ATM of money. Let’s do this!!

I just told a friend, completely unironically, 明日、雨降らば、傘を持ちて行かむ and I don't think I have ever felt prouder of my Japanese

www.city.bunkyo.lg.jp/b014/p007717... I know the odds of someone wanting to go to this with me are basically zero, but whatever, I'll go alone if needed

So I joined the PTA last year for reasons, and I’m just now finding out they send you the most insanely targeted gifts. This is just absolutely perfectly targeted at me

No, I will not stop trying to make 虚しい ↓↓↓↓ 六七しい ↓↓↓↓ 67しい happen, so please stop asking me

Ugh, my son is heartbreaking

DNA test!

OH NO!!!! 昨日、セガハードの父として知られている佐藤秀樹さんがご逝去されました

The solution to spending thousands every month on manga is to find something else to do on the train

It’s here! Now if I could only find the correct cable for the 1084S!

Oh well. HDMI it is then.

Sure didn’t have Verlet integration on my 「advertisements seen in Shibuya」bingo card…

Just heard someone use the word Galentines Day. I refuse to look up what it is, and you can’t convince me it’s not this

Guess it’s time to play japan’s favourite game: are you smarter than 小学生

I broke my one fundamental rule: always ignore the English and just read the Japanese. 入荷 makes sense, but man did 「NOW available @ bar」 … 「Available from 2/25」 throw me off

A nonzero number of coworkers think this is my actual life strategy :)

I do not know what changed, but I do hope it somehow magically continues

/me checks if hanging out with the literal founder of the Japanese punk scene was on his 2026 bingo card

I’ve decided to play a new game where I take note whenever an AI company CEO says we’re 6 months away from AGI, then 6 months later I get on bluesky to wish everyone happy AGI day … … … happy AGI day to all who celebrate! May the AI Santa from the Coke commercial leave you sweet NFTs under your tree

Unpopular opinion: if you really wanted to save GDC, maybe a new location would help more than a new name? Not really sure gamedevs are avoiding the US due to a lack of festival vibes

お知らせ: 百人一首の勉強をやめて 二百五十五人一首の勉強を始めました (セーブデータが壊れていて全てのバイトが8’hFFになっているようです)

Running Linux at home, so software dev is basically not possible, but I sure can use my work lunch break to make useless things that should absolutely not exist!

I mean just in case you haven't seen the best version of this youtu.be/ouoBPgMqaYE?...

I think I finally understand the concept behind 布団の中から出たくない

Too late, hopes are already up

I think I might be screwed www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFZZ...

I looked up the real answer, but it’s boring, so I’m just going to stay irritated at the concept of putting crackers in a barrel. Why would anyone do that? Crackers are square. Barrels are round. The geometry is unpleasant to imagine. Also fuck ICE.

gitはプログラマーが何かを設計すると、ろくなことにならない証拠の代表格

Any of you guys using Apple’s iBooks for manga? I’d rather not support kindle anymore now that they are adding AI features, so I’m considering moving to iBooks, and am curious if you guys have any showstopper issues

Sometimes late at night I like to look out my office window into the windows of other buildings, and see all those poor suckers working late instead of getting out to experience this magical city

Best game Nintendo ever made
