@mattround.com But those who love it are all the richer for it!
@vektxr.bsky.social I really enjoyed your article š
I agree thatās a great, semi-curated way to explore such a VAST software library. I also love delving thru random old stuff that just might be treasure, eg I found a letter between school pals saved in BASIC print statements on the B side of a mag cover tape. šš¼
@sonicyoda.bsky.social Probably ate too much pizza.

@retrotechtive.bsky.social I like the fizzy sour ones the best! šš¬
@breakintoprogram.co.uk Iām not sure about debugging features but generally it seems theyāve come a long way in the past few years. I think SSF and Yabause are still/actively being developed, but the new kid on the block is Ymir.

@breakintoprogram.co.uk Iāve been reading/watching ChibiAkumaās tutorials which make it seem more approachable than Iād assumed. Jon Burtonās GameHut demonstrates the deep magic (parallel/DSP stuff) but that makes my head spin!
@breakintoprogram.co.uk Heh I immediately zoomed in on NiGHTS! Did you ever do anything on Saturn/SH2? Iāve been thinking about dabbling with some 2D stuff.
@fuzzweed.co.uk Om nom nom nom (I like the blue ones)
@fuzzweed.co.uk Iāve never thought of counter-snorkering my printouts. Lovely stuff!

@gavtrdq.bsky.social [Accept new worse thing] [Maybe later]
@gamesblackhole.bsky.social That would be great. We Spectrum and SAM nerds could do with a re-stock too, please!
@gavtrdq.bsky.social Thatās exactly the sort of insight thatās worth the price of a Kit-Kat.
@zxguesser.bsky.social RRRrrr frrrrr frrrrkk zzzrrk. Rrrrrl hrrrrrvv trrrrr srrrrrrt rrGrrrn.
@whathosnorkers.bsky.social Oh, yeah! I think that was my first too. Caught part of it on TV or something and then thought about it for YEARS until finally seeing it properly!
@fuzzweed.co.uk Personal computers? Oh if you insist. Just remember 1) do not expose to water, 2) keep out of direct sunlight, 3) do not feed after midnight, and whatever you do, do NOT connect to the Internet
@breakintoprogram.co.uk Hahah, amazing! I genuinely didnāt know they were a thing. A device worthy of the name āScience Ovenā after all.
@megaslippers.net Ah, yes. I knew something about it was annoying me but hadnāt put it into words. Thatās exactly it.
@breakintoprogram.co.uk Surely in Space Year 2025⢠they should have beam forming or something to eliminate the need to rotate? Canāt be that hard if those ugly gamer Wi-Fi routers can do it! Right? My mum bought a new microwave recently and it has a rotary dial and an actual bell like it was designed in the 1950s. Yuck. š
@flatduckrecords.co.uk Yeah thatās really nice. Impulse engines upgraded to Warp!
