🚨 This is dangerous, not just outrageous. Two major newspapers ran stories implying disabled people were faking it to get 2-for-1 Oasis tickets, simply because some wheelchair users stood up at the gig. Let me explain why this kind of reporting is harmful. 🧵1/8

Rosewater, my Wild West adventure game, has been out nearly 4 months and has been very well-received! But I also feel like it’s reached a fraction of its potential audience. If you can spare a repost and help spread the word, it would be greatly appreciated! www.grundislav.games/Rosewater.html

Can't understand why the next thingy seems to have a lesser spec fpga than the c64 thingy at the same price?

@specnext.com just checking but is the fpga smaller than the one in the C64 Ultimate, but bigger than the original? thanks
