I never liked the link dump name for what was essentially weeknotes - the name was bad and I had other things I wanted to include[1]. I'm never going to manage to do this every week though so instead I'm stealing Chris' numbering solution. That way, I can do one whenever I feel like it.

I blogged about post filtering on EchoFeed which I'm currently finalising for release. I also have a couple of other fun social features I'm working on.

I'm thinking about selling a sticker but I need to work out the shipping logistics first.

I hooked up my PS2 last week and it turns out Tony Hawk 3 and 4 won't run at all so I've ripped them to run them with the PCSX2 emulator. I assume some of my other games won't run either so I'll rip those as well. So far though, everything I've tried has run perfectly with PCSX2. Maybe I should stream some THPS at some point.

Links

Some fonts I've saved over the past couple of weeks while working on a few things:

Wendy Murphy and Beasts of England have a lot of lovely fonts.

The Steak Bake spider is an important addition to the internet and must be protected. I'd love to see the code for this.

Remy Sharp put together a CSS flag generator.

The The 12-bit rainbow palette will be going in my toolkit.

itter.sh is "Social Media via SSH". I'm on there as @rknightuk but I doubt I'll use it much. A fun concept.

LÖVE is the game engine used by Balatro and there's a great book called How to LÖVE for learning how it works.

Hosting checker is handy and seems pretty comprehensive.

I'm still obsessed with these fictional hotel notepads.

The pink Life noble notebooks that Brad always teases me with are now available to ship outside of Japan. RIP my wallet.

Miscellanea

This is a tweet, which I would usually never screenshot, much less post on my website, but it's too good not to share.

oh poor baby 🥺🥺 do you need the robot to make you pictures? 🥺🥺 yeah?🥺🥺 do you need the bo-bot to write you essay too? yeah??? you can't do it?? 🥺🥺you're a moron??🥺🥺 do do you need chat gpt to fuck your wife ?? 🥺🥺🥺

The person who tweeted this had to delete it after the AI bros started harrassing them (I can't find the tweet now 🤷‍♂️).

This story about seagulls smashing the roof of a library in Oxford led Lewis to make this very good, but under appreciated, joke in the omg.lol discord:

“What did you do when the Flock of Seagulls attacked?”

“I ran”

Finally an astute observation from macmanx:

One of the nice things about being on this Discord is being informed about new and exciting fascists


  1. I've updated the link dump posts to have the weeknote tag for the sake of completeness
