New post on my website/blog about a GB Cart repair! Forgive the double image I'll update the thumbnail when my friend sends a pic of the front of the cart tomorrow. Will update the post after the full repair is completed.

Today marks 10 years since we diverged from the Good Timeline™. RIP to the spirit that kept the devils at bay.

Just went outside and enjoyed the sun a bit. What is everyone doing today? Especially if it brought you joy.

So the installed version of MS-DOS 5.0 on my IBM 5160 doesn't have the basic interpretator, in fact it doesn't have much of anything except COMMAND.COM and even that is stripped down. Like fkn EDIT doesn't even exist I had to make new files with COPY CON.

Anyways I'm ordering a Greaseweazal so that I can plug it into my appleII drive 1 and then to my pc to actually do the full MS-DOS 5.0 install.

Curious if anyone knows of any leads on how to get a cassette interface card for it or maybe an FOSS...

Made a live ASCIIQuarium picture frame today after seeing one on UCONNs campus on a tv. It is sick as hell.

Working as an election officer today here in the states. Wish me luck friends!

Taken with my GB Camera

Shot in the dark, anyone have any resources about converting VGA into a CGA or MDA even if it's just monochrome or only a set amount of ascii characters?

Health update. Just got back from doc that gave me an ultrasound on my face to check out this lump. And they didn't do a biopsy? They just did the ultrasound and told me to wait another handful of weeks. Oh and charged me $300. This place sucks dude.

YALL, I just scored a working Amber CRT and an working IBM 5160 for less than 100$

I have never been more stoked.

Work continues on the dungeon generator. Found some issues with my collision algo and found a better one for my needs that I'm trying to implement. Should be pretty straightforward. I'm having a blast making it.

Also in other news, my partner just got her dream job across country. On too of that she's graduating her masters in a week. Looks like we are moving in little over a month. Very exciting. So proud of her.

Ok been working on this dungeon generator and found a really good article about how to make it look more organic. Randomly place rooms, assign those a region, iterate a maze in every free space adjacent the rooms, punch either one or multiple holes into the rooms to join the regions, then get rid of every dead ends.

Problem is I'm a psychopath and stubborn, so I want to do things the hard way. I am doing this trying to avoid objects and just use scripting. And also I want to deviate from the article...

As I wait here for my surgery tomorrow morning I've been working on a little project that generates PNG images of randomly generated dungeons in the 8x8 tile format to make gameboy dungeon crawler templates.

It had been fun generating things that write pixel by pixel, it's the first time I've ever tried to make an image file from scratch. Though I do plan to cheat a bit. I'm making bitmap files rn and plan on using a library to convert it to png. Or at least to export it as so. Also for fun after its...

Woke up to find a ping pong ball size lump on the side of my lower jaw. Fuck yeah dude. Love that.

Went to an urgent care and doc said dunno but it's not a lymph node or salivary gland based on placement. And to take this general antibiotic.

Cant wait to wake up tomorrow morning with either a pinto bean sized relief or a baseball sized heart attack.

Wish me luck totally not crashing out

Noah Kahan's new album is a fkn banger.

Any Good Kid fans? If so are you excited for the new album!?

Feature Request: a tab that shows current unix time that also has a countdown till the 32 bit integer limit is reached. Nixie tube themed of course!

Is anyone else having issues with the map on mobile? I'm using an Android drvice. Atm it just shows a close up of a part of Europe with no ability to pan or scroll.

Wtf RustDesk. Now I gotta log in with Google? Wack.

Dude we have a globe and a webring now? That's sick as hell. I love this site ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡
