I‘ve been so obsessed with “creative hobby time” that I often feel guilty when I’m just consuming stuff unless it’s a book. Just sat down to listen to a record while doing nothing else and it’s as glorious at it has always been. Gotta stop bullying myself 🤡

Remember as your eyes burn from the smoke today, Ken Sim and ABC voted to allow fracked gas in new builds, cancelled $8 million in climate retrofit grants; voted against funding for cooling kits for people in the Downtown Eastside; and got rid of the climate justice charter.

Motivated by my port of Moon Child to the Dreamcast, I had to figure out a way of burning CDI files to bootable homebrew discs on the console on the Mac... so I made a thing! dcdib-mac is a macOS tool for burning homebrew software to CDs that boot on the Sega Dreamcast. github.com/jfsantos/dcd...

And based on the SDL fork for Moon Child, I am porting it to the Sega Dreamcast! Almost everything works, but rendering is still a little slow so that needs some work. But I even put our FRIEND's face on the VMU!
