Interesting post by @larstofus.bsky.social about the optimizations in Rollercoaster Tycoon: larstofus.com/2026/03/22/t... We had a game running @z-space.ca for almost two weeks earlier this year. Still a lot of fun more than 25 years later.

"Thankless maintenance leads to burnout. Sabbaticals rarely sustain solo maintainers. Niche projects struggle against VC-backed hyperscalers. Paid services are hollowed out by AI." natemoo.re/posts/missin...

This looks interesting. A @semble.so integration could be really neat.

Paciic Cental, Vancouver in a January fog

I haven't been mossposting recently so here is some #moss on the way to Tunnel Bluffs a year ago

The @dwebyvr.org year is already filling up.

This is the complete, real migration of @mk.gg from the Bluesky PDS to a new Cirrus PDS Worker. The more boring bits are sped-up to get it under the 3 minute video limit. The real thing took about 12 mins. Try it yourself: github.com/ascorbic/cir...

Ravens on Seymour on the way to Dog Mountain

Correction, obviously I meant 2026 but years are hard 😆

Happy new year! Here are our January events: dwebyvr.org/dwebyvr-janu...

Just finished "The Willows" (1907) by Algernon Blackwood. An excellent short story of early cosmic horror www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/11438

While Stackoverflow had its own problems, I've been seeing a very similar trend for most open source projects as well. Often they are used (by indicators like e.g. downloads) more than ever before but no longer have any insight into how or how to improve.

After seeing another nudge from @atprotocol.dev, I finally got a proposal for a presentation/lightning talk in for atmosphereconf.org "@lofi - ATproto and local-first software" - Looking at local-first tools for user owned private data and how it can interact with Atproto.

We reveal and revisit our favourite records of the year. www.idieyoudie.com/2025/12/18/i...

Looking forward to making some noise again just before Krampus day: luma.com/k7fspser

Coding Trance music from scratch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iu5r... using strudel.cc a live coding platform to write music in the browser.

Anti-fascistic software is made possible by pro-labor licensing. I've been trying to write this piece for years. Every time I get started I'm just overwhelmed with paralyzing visions of the FOSS commentariat accusing me of WrongThink. But I'm tired and we urgently need to get our shit together.
