These got to go into a game :D #art #indiegames wp.blackyard.ch/shop/smallgo...

#indie #gamedev here is inspiration from another art form: youtu.be/DCtbFZtoQ88?...

This is a lovely color tool: colorpalette.pro …and also a reminder of the era—not that long ago!—when most software looked something like this. It was beautiful to behold and lovely to use. This was taken from us for entirely dubious reasons, but driven people like Ryan can still do it.

Found a book which is a #fantasy #dream come true! One day, I hope, this will be the basis of my, very serious, research to design a dragon game.

I'm still celebrating Space Quest Month over on Twitch, and I'm live RIGHT NOW with Space Quest II: Vohaul's Revenge. Even better, I'm playing the Apple IIGS version with an enhanced soundtrack. Drop by and join me! twitch.tv/decafjedi

Looks awesome 😁

So Good Lessons Learned: What “Smart” Really Means: - “Smart” often implies a lack of control. - “Cheap” signifies compromised security. - “Convenience” often involves hidden surveillance. codetiger.github.io/blog/the-day...

"There are no perfect lives, soon or later, you will bite the apple and see half of a worm. Whether you spit it out or take another bite, is generally a function of hunger. The worm is, after all, entirely made of apple." Love that #quote in "The Book That Wouldn't Burn" by Mark Lawrence

Thank you Jane Goodall, for your care and your mission to share empathy🌿

The thesis of this post is that React isn't innovating and other UI libraries are. But the real issue is that React's innovations are overshadowed by it's own success. www.lorenstew.art/blog/react-w...

Also canceled & deleted audible, bought a local libary membership, installed libby and I'm enjoying the first audiobook: The Book That Wouldn't Burn It's the perfect fit, it's all about books, librarians and a fantastic library. Thanks @danielgreene.bsky.social for the research and the highlight!

Installed Navidrome on my NAS & ultrasonic on the phone, canceled & deleted spotify! Started the journey of re-claiming ownership of digital content!

With almost laughably low power, a monochrome screen, and unique controls, niche-micro console Playdate shouldn't make any sense in a world of modern gaming. Yet, it's near impossible not to love it. www.wired.com/story/three-...

Just seen this little arcade thingy... It actually plays Bubble Bobble one of my favourits from back in the days. Played it a lot with my brother. However the inputs are tiiiiny, even for kids... No idea what the was about

The pinia docs has an add it says: "Vibe code Vue apps with confidence" 🤦‍♂️ The thing is: if you vibe then you don't have confidence and if you have confidence you don't need to vibe it! I encourage you, take the time to read the docs and understand what you're doing! #programming #vue #apps

Sorry, but I have to take this out, thanks for the request, I'll go through them.

I grew up on these streets

New Devlog about the #playdate frame-based collision implementation I've made in Dues Of Shadows: dominik-haas.itch.io/doms-blog/de... #programming #indiegames in #lua

The said, there is some "trend" coming back for simple websites, web rings: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webring I like the direction for simplicity. I hope it doesn't also mean going back to pure html, css, JS.

Day 2 of my #portfolio challenge and I'm having fun with #react and #nextjs ... I've heared about useEffect() being convoluted. But having to using it, arg! Coming from #vue it's pain full! React (left) vs Vue (right), vue it's not simpler but also way easier to read!

Portofolio #programing challenge with a background in #vuejs this re-implementation in #nextjs feels pretty nice 😃 Basic structure of blog list and detail page are finished. No visual styling done yet, polish comes at the end 😁 Actually had to most struggle with #tailwind Next up projects page!

I'm having summer holidays and took on the #programing challenge of re-implementing my portfolio in #nextjs #shadcn and #tailwind 1 Day reading documentation and starting importing my blog posts from itch. Done so far: - navigation - blog list with feature entry
