One of my favorite moments from #vcfmw this year was when @thegirlg33k.com let me test picoide out on her PC-9821 and do some IDE bus captures. After some shenanigans with drive geometry it booted right up off the picoide! And CD works too! Thanks again for letting me crash your table 😅

OK, I have more information on the ADPCM. We have a tracking spreadsheet that you can contribute to, and the link to the test ROM is in cell A-1. You will need to run this on a CDROM-based system (as only CDROM systems have the ADPCM unit). docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.

Hi, thanks for posting! We do appreciate you thinking of us even though we have to moderate.

Our stance on all AI generated content (Images, Video, Voiceovers, and whatever else LLM based AI gets up to in the future):

At best, they are approximations of street fighter characters as the AI has no clue what it is trying to create. Because of this, there is no street fighter content so they are not allowed. (rule 1)

Also, they aren't allowed per our source rule. As AI sources cannot be tracked, we must assume that they use uncredited sources in the learning data. (rule 5)

Finally, AI images, video, text, and voiceovers are barely any different than posting a screenshot of a google search. The level of effort is so low that we consider it spam (rule 3).

Because of these reasons, AI art and other AI content is not allowed.

If you would like to contact the moderators about this removal, you can do so here.

My Steam Deck games alone - just those I’ve got installed right now - could comfortably see me out the rest of my existence. I’ve got XCOM 2, 4 games with “Baldur’s Gate” in the title, Lost Planet 2, a pair of Monster Hunters and 90 others. I’m set. I really, truly, do not need AI-tainted nonsense.

One way to tell how long parts of a program take, such as emulated chips in a video game system, is to turn off each part and measure how long it takes to run. youtu.be/Ys9WWMkFyV8 #FamilySizeVM #emudev #NESdev #timelapse #emulator

There's something about the presence of guns in RE1 (and OG RE2) that breaks brains, and 90% of the "problems" people have with them stem from trying to force gun-led solutions/reactions in basically a fancy controller-based point 'n' click adventure. Gun =/= action game!

Lots of good search engine tricks in here but one detail that's buried at the end and needs to be at the top: All the tricks work on Duckduckgo too. Why continue rewarding Google for breaking search and spying on you? Use an alternative.

I did what the UFO guys never bothered to do: about a week ago, I read up on how Long File Names (LFN) work on FAT12 floppy storage, and programmed in a display routine for LFNs on my Super UFO8 FDD copier. Much more useful now!

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
