These 'AI is going loose and hacking other systems' reports should be printed and scattered in journals so they can be found by dwellers once the shit hits the fan and the world turns into a tank-camera survival horror dystopia.

History of Hyrule, Zelda Archivist @historyofhyrule.com · 28/07/2026

Lost no longer! Scanned, cleaned, and uploaded at 2400dpi. This Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link poster by Ranmaru comes from the November 1987 issue of Wanpaku comics and it's probably the most I've paid to obtain/scan a single piece of #Zelda art to date. Find it here! archive.org/details/wanp...

A anime style poster from 1987, that looks similar to Osamu Tezuka's art style, showing Link, Zelda, and his parrot Watt, on a barren hill with dark dead trees and forboding, blue, mountains and sky in the background. Link has his sword drawn in his left hand and is holding his right hand back towards Zelda, in a defensive pose of protection. Zelda looks frightened but has still drawn her dagger. She's wearing a wimple, crown, and poofy pants. She is blonde with green eyes. Link has blue eyes and hot pink hair and is wearing his classic original green tunic and turtle neck outfit but also has gloves on.

Super Novela Maker let's you create Interactive Fiction for the Super Nintendo #SNES. It's easy to configure and to use. It only took me a minute to create a Diary, to build the ROM, and to boot it on the emulator (ZSnes). #gamedev

Today I'm starting a new project. I'll create an automatic RPG battle game that works online. Folks will join the game and watch the characters fight... endlessly. Of course, players will be able to bet on everyfight. The game will be hosted in my new shady perulainen VPS server.

The paradox of political art under fascism is that it is asked to compensate for a failed political opposition while, at the same time, bland statements like "we should be nice to each other" or "I should be allowed to exist" come to be seen as radical and therefore sufficient.

1 year #vibecoding and working with #agentic entities (sic). Some side effects: - complete alienation from coding as "carpentry". - tiredness, irritability, feeling of being hungover after creating massive artifacts in a short span (ex. a full app in 1 day).

Peruvian warlords are in control of most of the territory and all major political institutions. Congress, Army, Police, Political Parties (left and right), Churches, Municipalities, Universities, Industries, Entertainment all belong to them. This is -sadly- not an exaggeration.
