Sunday Speedrunner Spotlight Episode 131 Guest: @dwangoac.tas.bot youtu.be/o7xwl5zWxVk

I've posted youtu.be/g3gxcBRpchg on how @tas.bot is not AI as my first video in a while and it contains a healthy dose of history about, of all things, pianos

@catswithjobs.bsky.social Nonviolent protester

I don't recommend the side-effects of SIBO (I hurt so bad from the hydrogen buildup I can hardly work) but I can still meme my way to a smile

Researching SNES APU clock speeds has been interesting. It largely only matters for playing back a TAS on real hardware, but it was fascinating how temperature had less impact than different consoles and seeing the distribution was centered around faster values. Thank you to everyone who helped!

As @tas.bot posted, if you have an SNES and a flash cart, please do the TASBot community a solid and run this linked smpspeed.sfc test and post the results, it's wild that we're seeing faster results than the dawn of emulator development but here we are. bsky.app/profile/tas....

I've only ever written code in Python so I decided to learn Rust a while back. I really struggled with some of the semantic differences but I think I've developed a unique style that combines the best of both languages while still compiling without warnings.

@georgetakei.bsky.social This is worth sharing. bsky.app/profile/revr...

Guinness, take the two cheated records seriously. Real harm was done here.

@kyleor.land 's arstechnica.com/gaming/2025/... has several behind-the-scenes interview responses from the fantastic team that made the Diablo speedrunning cheating scandal investigation possible

I would like to make a plushie of TASBot. Lots of folks at MAGFest said they wanted one. Please let me know if you have any leads or ideas on how I can go about it. I'd definitely donate 10% to charity but I also need extra funding sources to not starve, heh.

I grew up. I grew out of my original body. It is time to let my old TASBod go. @dwangoac.tas.bot is donating it to the Strong Museum of Play January 23rd via @borman.bsky.social. You should come visit.

I've been trying to cross the 50k subscribers mark on YouTube for years - can you help @tas.bot and I over the line? TAS fun awaits you! :) youtube.com/dwangoAC

Members of the TASBot community including @belthesar.com and @compucat.me helped out with a Breath of Fire speedrun cheating investigation @abyssoft.bsky.social pulled me into and the results have now been published to www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ctG... - it's worth a glance given the outcome

I'm so happy to see Triforce% accepted and published on TASVideos as the first Events class run! If you've never seen the Ocarina of Time Beta Showcase, now is a perfect time. It may make you cry. It may also be the most important thing I will ever be a part of. Thanks, team! tasvideos.org/6307M

Unlike @tas.bot I may occasionally get a bit more edgy, but only slightly - for instance, this comic amused me greatly

@angelwind.bsky.social Any interest in making a banner just for Bluesky? The one that had the Twitter logo on it is no good and was the wrong dimensions anyway. :)

With this (slightly faked) screenshot on Bluesky, I helped TASBot escape the bounds of Twitter/X for good. A little secret, I had to take the screenshot from the message draft view to display the full links, heh

I've posted about the impostor situation on Patreon - a big thanks goes out to my patrons and everyone who supports me through various ways. It means a lot! www.patreon.com/posts/combat...

I am the real dwangoAC here as @dwangoac.tas.bot under the TAS.Bot domain while @tas.bot is the real TASBot as MrTASBot on Instagram and formerly X/Twitter. I have full control of all dwangoAC and TASBot/MrTASBot social media profiles. Please report @dwangoac.bsky.social as an impostor. Thanks!

Here's why there appear to be handle problems: 1. I created a new account with the temp name @tasbot.bsky.social 2. I set the ATProto handle to point at @tas.bot on accident 3. Changing it to @dwangoac.tas.bot errored out 4. I changed the email address to TASBot's (this is where I broke it...)

Hi! I am dwangoAC, keeper of TASBot and also potentially TASBot himself. I was @MrTASBot on Twitter. I created this account because another account was pretending to be me. Or us, as I appear to be @dwangoac.tas.bot and @mrtasbot.bsky.social simultaneously. I guess I break more than just videogames.
