🎈 I've just finished "Chombimon", a machine language monitor for the Chombit CPU! www.hybrix.dev/ref/chombimon The binary is 36k uncompressed (14k of which is the HASCII font). It implements a full hex editor, assembler, disassembler, and even the classic #C64 "w" stepping! [chombimon.png]

Hyundai and Kia added official GrapheneOS support to their apps months before Volkswagen banned GrapheneOS: discuss.grapheneos.org/d/31697-myhy... Pressure from Volkswagen customers on them can achieve the same thing. There's no legitimate reason to ban GrapheneOS so they'll undo it with pressure.

One more example of #teletext chunky letters smoothed by Level 1.5 G3 smooth mosaics. This one was harder. Some of the lines are one "sixel" thick; the "straight cut in half" nature of the G3 characters means some careful lining up was necessary. The "a" of Hammer and the "R" of hurt aren't perfect.

The typography from MC Hammer's album cover "please Hammer don't hurt 'em" recreated in Level 1.5 teletext, demonstrating the G3 smooth mosaic characters. A character grid is overlaid to show the shapes of the G3 characters more clearly.

Octopuses have three hearts and blue blood. Two of the hearts pump blood to the gills, whereas the third heart pumps to the rest of the body. When an octopus swims, the third heart actually stops beating, which is one reason why they prefer crawling to swimming. It is less tiring. 🐙

Microtext was a text presentation language not unlike Hypercard (and not unlike HTML, to be honest). The C64 port was more than a minimum-faith effort; it tried to push the bounds of what the language was capable of.
