If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

@doctoro.bsky.social this actually sounds like a bug? volume.bmp that's short should truncate the slider height, not break it (WACUP on left, Winamp on right); happens on other skins with short volume files too. Here's the skin for ref: skins.webamp.org/skin/ef34498...

Californians are NOT going to vote for Gavin Newsom. They're telling you now, with YEARS to go before the election. Fair warning. Please support better candidates, there will be many to choose from.

I basically made two Winamp skins on this topic 👍

We started watching Dan da Dan and as soon as the credits roll, I never fail to laugh like a dope at this cat with a blow dryer in its face www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovW7...

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

ffs, impeach him

I also made a Silksong Winamp skin! You can try it out with webamp, or download it, from my site: winamp.spacecatsamba.com/skin/hollow-...

Probably the last pony of 2025, Minuette! Or Colgate, if you prefer her fandom nick name! Wallpaper sized versions can be downloaded from my site: spacecatsamba.com

I've been publishing my work online for, geez, over 20 years, so it's not my first rodeo, but it continues to suck when I find someone else claim my stuff as theirs... and try to sell it, to boot.

Have mixed feelings about this. It's not a bad idea (I'm doing it), but TLDs aren't free, often require publicizing your address for registration (or pay to hide it), have largely been bought up, and may still change hands. Or if you're not using a TLD, you're subject to the whims of its owner.

Having completed my art degree, I applied and was hired for "web designer" roles, only for each employer to notice I could also code, and reassign me as a developer (sometimes with a pay bump). So after repeating this a few times, I put "developer" on my name tag instead.

since the "google is now training gemini on your email contents" thing keeps bumping around here: it's _not happening_. I say this not to defend google but because I know a lot of people that have broken their filtering and made their lives much more annoying from sheer misinformation.

#EeveeDay postin' Eevee~

I remade a sought-after Winamp skin featuring wiz Mayura! It was made in 2001 by "Hungman" and seems to be lost from the internet now. Requires plugins to work properly, which don't work in the latest versions of Winamp - see the skin's README if you want to use it! skins.webamp.org/skin/ae9bc54...

Always irks me when anyone acts like TGA means anything.

Sourdough is like a mid-tier bread, until it is sufficiently toasted (or fried), at which point it becomes s-tier.

Well happy Nightmare Night!

Lumiose City is just a very silly place. Roof access is encouraged! Construction scaffolding is built as obstacle courses for your enjoyment! Enjoy a 100k coffee inside a wild zone with an alpha Pokemon staring you down - murderous intent in its glowing red eyes!

Genshin Impact taking like 5 pages of text to explain a mini-game that boils down to, "ride the zip line and collect shiny bits."

Welp.

Sometimes I do things other than complain about video games!

Mega Chesnaught and Delphox are awesome, no notes. Greninja is... okay. I don't like either of the Mega Raichus. 😑

I... try not to dwell on it here, because I'm sure you don't need to hear it from me, but every day is just a new bundle of awful for this country.

Todaybor day is Labor Day!

When the project spec says you get to go greenfield with a stack of your choosing.

I started playing Blue Prince and my camera roll is now just entirely janky "screenshots" of every clue or potentially useful info for later reference. Fun times.

when they close it all up, I do believe this will go down as the funniest video on the internet

[worst possible stuff happening everywhere] man why do I feel bad

I go back and forth between wanting and/or having a blog. Sometimes I want to write about things in long-form, but when I've done so, I usually come back later thinking, "eh this is junk that nobody cares to read." And there goes the blog.

Resonates in many ways. While I do find LLMs useful for some things, having them forced carelessly into every interface and workflow is tiresome, and feels pessimistic. Make creative fun things because you want to, because you enjoy making it. And don't call it "content."

What an awful day to be an American.

So I made a Winamp skin for NSP! TWRP is also here! Download from my site if you want it: winamp.spacecatsamba.com

We purchased a taiyaki pan; it was a great idea

Getting tired of streaming? Might I suggest returning to Winamp? Perhaps you might be tempted by a collection of vintage #Utena skins I made that haven't been on the website in over a decade? There's more where these came from, and some website history to boot! emptymovement.com/threads/who-...

In between content updates in Wilds, I've been playing some Monster Hunter Rise again... using this particular skin.

Starlight Glimmer, friend version! I'd made one for her as an antagonist, and had intended to do another version... but hadn't, until now! Also wanted to make one for Glimmer and Trixie!

Obituaries for Skype lumping in Winamp as dead software.

Still using it, still makin skins. Here's a few Classic skins I've made in the 2020s!

Happy Easter and Tree Hugger day! She reminds me of a roommate I had in college (...said many people, I imagine). Wallpaper sizes for download at spacecatsamba.com

Feel like I could just be reposting this daily.

For your mental health I present: Plum’s paws

I set out to draw the original Cozy Glow, Googled some reference pics and saw the Chaos version; "ugggh, I'm not doing that one; that hair!" ... Of course, then I started drawing curls. So you get both! Various wallpaper resolutions are downloadable at my site, spacecatsamba.com

Teenagers are making Winamp skins in 2025 jordaneldredge.com/notes/hack-c...

I built a Playstacean!

Happy St Patrick's! Have a green pony! In a recent thread on that other site, I saw a number of requests for Minty! I didn't know she had an FiM cameo, but wasn't fond of her being an AJ recolor. I liked her GameLoft rendition better, so went with that look! Wallpaper sizes at spacecatsamba.com

The exchange between Trump, Vance and Zelenskyy in the Oval Office today in which our country attacked the victim in defense of a brutal aggressor has to be one of the most shameful moments in Modern American history.

Happy #PokemonDay! Here's a bunch of Eevees I drew, and my favorite Pokemon Winamp skin!
