Thought I'd do a quick post about what (re)posts to expect from me:
- video games, mainly older ones
- reverse engineering, programming
- computers, mostly retro-related
- general anime, manga and vtubers
- "cute anime girls(/boys/others; mostly girls)"
- real life rambles, occasional politics

Was Blue Prince as good as it was because of our vintage magazine subscriptions, where 100% of the proceeds benefit historical video game preservation? I'm not saying yes, absolutely, but I'm not NOT saying it. the-video-game-history-foundation.myshopify.com/collections/...

New video! So how bad can a cheap Android tablet from 2010 be? Well, today we're gonna find out! This thing sold for a fraction of the cost of a first gen iPad, and predates the release of Android 3.0 Honeycomb. So this should be fun...

My C is rusty and, worst of all, kinda slow on hardware like the WonderSwan. I was overrunning Vblanks like I'm Micronics, if I'm interpreting Mesen's Event Viewer properly! Gotta freshen up and improve that knowledge more...

I keep seeing folks say they'll just accept a Teen Friendly account on Discord rather than scan or ID and I don't know if I wanna mass normalize leaving NSFW pals out in the cold yet again. Especially with all the censorship stuff goin on I think we gotta stand with the freaks now more than ever.

NHK, I wasn't bullied into paying the 20,000 yen you demand every year just so you could haunt me with chryons that somebody on your staff shouldn't be nearly as proud of thinking up as they clearly are. 😩

You may have heard of Maclock, a cute alarm clock that looks like an original Macintosh. But what if it could actually *be* a Mac? Let’s see what it takes — it’s not as hard as you may think!

Well, this didn't last long. I updated the kernel and now the Nouveau kernel module locks up the whole machine on boot unless I disable modesetting (which of course means no X11). Happens on any kernel from 6.12.68 onwards. Maybe I'll try NetBSD for giggles?
Guess I haven't posted anything in a while. I'll just say it's because I've been waiting for this to compile. /s
Wanted to see how x86 Linux is holding up since almost every distro dropped it. It lives! But there's also a lot that isn't necessarily broken - but also kinda doesn't work.

Both floppy drives on this rare SAM Coupé were dead. Awful noises. No loading.

I hate centrists so much dawg.
"Different beliefs" bro some of these people's "beliefs" include the deportation and deaths of people like me.
I always hated that shit man. Different opinions should be shit like "I like chicken instead of beef", not "I think brown people shouldn't have rights"

Unreal Tournament 2004 is now available for free.
...well, I mean, you probably could've grabbed a GOG offline installer out the back of a truck earlier, but NOW it's Official/Legally Free and has the in-development community patch packed in for ongoing support. www.oldunreal.com/downloads/ut...
