steam machine de la abuela

ya know, if my looming midlife crisis ends up being nothing more than a return to physical media and a step back from the attention economy, I've done all right for myself.

My retro style NFC reader IS DONE! It takes credit card style NFC cards and game cartridges with an embedded NFC tag inside. Find the model on Makerworld, which includes the card reader, game carts and an insert for Cassette cases. Please enjoy. makerworld.com/en/models/19...

working on an NFC "game" reader that takes both cards and cartridges with an embedded tag. using Zaparoo by @wizzo.dev for my MiSTerPi by @takiudon.bsky.social. 3mf will probably be up on Makerworld when I've fully dialed in the print.

No one person has done more to bolster the community that surrounds Giant Bomb over the last 17 years than ZombiePie. He has tirelessly put together weekly roundups of forum posts, blogs, reviews, wiki work, and art. This is probably the last one. Please read it. www.giantbomb.com/articles/the...

Finally digging up my old articles via the wayback machine so I can translate them to english and throw them up on a neocities site or something. They may have nuked the site I wrote for, but I won't allow them to nuke my portfolio.

Kinda wondering/fancasting what @samreich.bsky.social and @dropout.tv could mean for independent video games media and helping to host displaced journalists. I know dropout is a different beast but... I think there's something to be said for this, or something aside it.

Giant Bomb forever. 💣 Through all the years, I've loved it and its community, and its joy, free spirit, and the people's lives it has enriched will endure no matter what may come. <> #GiantBomb

Did you ever do that thing where you put a game on your Steam wishlist and then watch it go on sale year after year, event after event, sale after sale, and never buy it, and eventually it dawns on you that you never actually wanted it
