Once upon a time I was Mr. MAGFest. Then I did a chiptune NIN tribute. Now I live in a van down by a river, still write chiptunes, run Bloop Museum. Someday I'll finish a synthesizer I'm building and ditch meat. He/they. inversephase.bandcamp.com

This game looks delightful, and some of the joke bits remind me that it's high time to revive this screenshot from Gradius 4
System setup screen from the Gradius 4 Arcade operator menu where you set the clock. When you tell it to save and exit, it asks "Are you ok?" instead of "are you sure?" which is probably what they meant.

A week ago at Dragoncon I met Richard Garriott at a panel about his new Ultima game. Long story short he wants to use AI. He already has for concept art and ChatGPT generated fantasy language. I wrote an account with the hope that this could spread to the right people. Please pass this along.

If I had to guess, then, they have a larger following than me, and feel that the income from youtube and supplemented fan income is enough (or maybe they have support from a partner). I am only barely making ends meet, so I think the comparison isn't 1:1

I don't want to misinterpret your question, could you reword it? Are you asking "do you think warpstream will hit a nerve with youtubers who are earning adrev and supplementing with fan funds?" or something deeper?

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade and I think most retro projects are cool, but in the case of music, I think you're gonna hit a nerve with folks who are trying to make a living from their music. Bandcamp supports MP3 DL that works directly with a Nomad, you can do V0 if you don't want 320.

Ok I'm officially putting out the call for help, Wonderbread (my prius) is acting up and I think it's unsafe to drive it to Chicago. Looking for folks driving through Pittsburgh to #VCFMW. I will need a little bit of cargo space.

Oldskool chiptune nerd here, I don't have anything new but most people dig Pretty Eight Machine if they're into NIN and haven't heard of me. I also have originals - take a look at the Treachery in Beatdown City soundtrack! inversephase.bandcamp.com

While @megacatstudios.bsky.social fixed up Xcavator for @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social, I cowrote the soundtrack and playtested the game with @nocturnalplant.bsky.social, who just released an EDM track! Show the plant some support this #BandcampFriday if you can!

Dr. Perky is the closest thing I've found to Dr. Slice, which I miss dearly. Mountain Lion isn't bad or anything but I could really go for a good Surge clone rn

I'd prefer to assume that it was a feature that vibe or agentic coding broke first and possibly improve delivery for people, because as much as I don't want to rely on them there are some things I just can't get any other way

This is a weird post - I need to locate someone who does backend or app dev AT or FOR Amazon. I think there is a bug in the delivery notification system (eg. the driver says they delivered the package and then you get an email saying that it was left in a place) that could help a LOT of people...

Oh hey would you look at that, news about #Spotify cracking down on #AI! Doubt they'll remove their own AI stuff though...including the non-Spotify AI someone has their fingers in Plus they'll never pay artists fairly, you already don't get paid at all for tracks that underperform.
News screenshot from The Project: "Spotify deletes 75 million tracks in major AI crackdown". Just a plain spotify logo in this one.News screenshot on RNZ: "Spotify cleans up: removing 'AI slop' and seeking transparency" with some corded earbuds and a spotify logo in the picture.
