The first PC I *built* was a while after this, a Pentium 3, 733mhz with a Matrox G400 GPU. omg. I think the machine had like 256mb of ram lol. ❤️

Amstrad CPC464 followed by a generic 386 machine, my memory is fuzzy. I played endlessly from the rich catalog of games on the CPC464 (Roland on the Ropes, Dizzy, Way of the Exploding fist) and of course played Wolfenstein and Doom on the 386.

Core gameplay mechanics ? build a new level ? work on story progression ? no, I must set-dress an area of an existing level which you can't even get to and see from 100ft away through some open arches. #gamedesign #madewithunity #isthismarketing

I was in my first formation flight yesterday! The Canadian Aviation Museum fleet (with @flightchops.bsky.social in his RV-14) did a flyover for a charity & I rode in the back of the Chipmunk (@peacewind.aero was in the back of the Harvard). I even got some stick time. More difficult than it looks!

Yellow warbird airplanes in formation over fields on a sunny day. A Stearman biplane is in the lead and the plane opposite in the diamond is a Chipmunk (with me in the back). Photo is from the perspective of Lisa, who is riding in the back of a Harvard

The formation flight from my perspective in the back of the Chipmunk. The Harvard is opposite and the Stearman is in front

The Harvard and Steve’s yellow RV-14 in formation behind and to the right of the Chipmunk (photo by me in the back of the Chipmunk).

A fisheye view of the formation from a camera in the front of the Chipmunk. In the picture (a still from a video) the Stearman, Harvard, and RV-14 are visible in the diamond formation. Todd, who is in the front seat of the Chipmunk, is gesturing and I’m just barely visible in the seat behind him, concentrating on the Stearman while I try to keep us in the formation.

Fine tuning the end of the Keep level, it could be longer but I have to move along... still grinding at this project, 5 yrs in ;)
Yes I'm alive, busy, keeping an eye on things.

I finally played Deathtrap Dungeon again, 27 years after it was released. I think I only ever played a demo back in 97 or 98. It's an odd feeling but I realize just how much it is an influence on DQR even though I barely played it or remember it.

FatCicada @fatcicada.bsky.social · May 3

..Wikipedia's archive of did you know? is awesome.
I'm already informed on all the shitty current events, I need to get back my brain.

FatCicada @fatcicada.bsky.social · May 3

I don't think I'm going to be on here unless I have something to share. I quit facebook and I have to quit scrolling bsky too. It's a shitty habit and just makes me mad, nobody should come here just to get mad.
Actual DQR updates only, to follow.
And if I must scroll and read...

my question is what little bootlicking shit asked that fucking horrific question?

The thing people need at the ready is this: massive amounts of cash from a gofund me or something that can be used to grease wheels with protectors when it's obvious to everyone we're in competitive authoritarianism and the worst people keep "winning".
There is always someone who can be bribed.

Harvard Law professor Michael Klarman gave an inspiring lecture about the need for lawyers to protect democracy. I was honored that he noted the attacks and threats aimed at me. His words serve to steel my spine and make me more committed than ever to fighting for democracy.

Thank you professor.🙏
