By el-cheapo i mean these, since you mentioned having one

Recently added a cute little watermelon stamp to my website. Simple, right? Not quite. What was originally a raster (PNG) exported from Pixilart, I turned into a hand-coded vector image (SVG) that reduced the filesize by ~90% with lossless quality.

This is such a nice Git-based headless CMS, it’s truly amazing. I’m very impressed. A lot more customizable and performant than Decap, and it’s responsive on mobile. This might be what finally gets me to blog more often. 😁

PS: for now you have to first set up Decap, then migrate; it’s pretty easy.

Tho I don’t really play on this, it’s for collection. As I mentioned, DS and below I play on emulators, like this Anbernic RG34XX, with 3x integer scale screen of the GBA.

I also have an RG34XX-SP, but will sell it soon to get an RGDS instead. That’s dual screen and can even do some lightweight 3DS

Gotta say, DS modding is pain (especially around the shoulder area). Massive respect to people who do it for a living… Compared to that, GBA SP modding is a breeze.

Re-shelled this cuz the exterior looked like it’s been through some battles. SNES aesthetics, ofc :3

[1] Here’s a collage of them both with my pixelart :3

[2] And the concept art of the DS Dex.

The one in the collage, and where the idea originated, is actually the Pokedex DS by @tomvdcr.bsky.social .

this DS Dex. It isn’t as pretty as the Premier Ball DS, but has its own unique charm.

I could not get the left shoulder button right for the life of me (thus sought professional help for the other one).

Don’t be jealous of that, be jealous of this :3

I came up with the Premier Ball DS concept. Had someone else do the shelling cuz didn’t want to mess it up. Before I did one myself, like…

I’ve only played DS and below on emulators. 3DS and Switch I play on real hardware.

I have been having second thoughts lately…

Saw this LLM note on a page recently.
