Improve bug? Yeah, no thanks, Jira... It's already perfect in all its brokenness

What's stopping you from coding like this?

Data on CF card #1 is scrambled. Card #2 is not even readable anymore. Prepared card #3 with FreeDOS but I can't boot from it. Something about invalid VBR signature... oh and my floppy drive stopped working too 😫

Has anyone in my timeline ever used dual monitor mode in Turbo Pascal or Turbo C?

Editing this one took ages, but it’s finally out. It's been a fun start to the project... curious what y'all think.

Week one of my "Back to the Pascal" project is almost done.
Now I "just" have to cut hours of footage into a short, fun video. No clue how long that'll take, but it's coming out by Sunday. One way or another 😅

Distant Sanctuary

Starting a game of Bastionland with my playgroup. I'll be playing Cosmic Knight Otaivo, who can vanish to a realm just beyong reality by focusing when he sees the sky.

Can we get browser HTML parsers to support self-closing tags for custom elements?

This,

<some-cool-element-without-children />

is nicer than this:

I'm starting a new project: Rebuilding a game I wanted to make as a kid, back when I had no idea what I was doing.

Another one joined the collection. I guess I have more 90s game programming books now than I'll ever need.

Good memories. I don't remember how many times I started over. It took a while to solve it 😅

Fellow DOS/retro game devs: What are must-reads for 386-era game development? I've got Abrash's Black Book, but I'd love recommendations on more general game dev topics from that period.

I'm setting up a workstation for an upcoming project. Everything except the monitor is too new (relatively speaking, most computer parts are from the late 90s). I've plugged together what I have, and I'm waiting for some new (old) parts.

Small computer desk with a 14" crt monitor on top, a black-and-white mechanical keyboard and a black mouse on the keyboard tray, and a black mini tower on the bottom shelf. Next to the monitor is a stack of books (Graphics Progamming Black Book, Mathmatics for Computer Graphics, Programming Game AI by Example, and two Turbo Pascal 7 books)

OpenAI is using Studio Ghibli-style memes as an ad hoc promotional campaign for its new image generator—despite Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki's famous hatred of AI. Sam Altman made his X avatar a 'Ghiblified' portrait.

Disgracing Miyazaki is part of the point: It's more proof to them tech has won.
OpenAI's Studio Ghibli meme factory is an insult to art itself
Sam Altman is promoting his new image generator by appropriating the work of one of the greatest living animators—who is "disgusted" by AI.

Do you use @obsidian.md ? Do you enjoy reading and statistics? You might want to check out my plugin, now available in Obsidian's community plugins. It's still in early development, and there are more things to come, but I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions!

Is it possible to unregister or redefine a web component? The CustomElementRegistry doesn't support it, but does anyone know a workaround?
