I'm pretty sure I'm the definition of the target audience for Stuart fails to save the universe. It's just so absurdly weird that I kind love it.

Wow I started going through and over half of the few people I do follow haven't been active since 2024. I forgot some of them existed and kinda miss the interactions I had with some of them. Quite a few are back on Twitter it seems 😢

definitely brainstorming what other old arcade games I can turn on their head some of my old favourites I'm thinking about are missile command, tempest, battlezone and tapper

Just shipped the probably last update for awhile to spaceships.treybastian.com A new score system with multipliers and combos, means the leaderboard will be more dynamic! A new enemy to do battle with A new bonus, that I don't want to spoil here that might happen during your play through

Pretty cute game, but feels more like a one-shot, it got a bit boring around wave 20. But interesting move to store the scoreboard with #atproto. SPACESHIPS ▸ wave 24 · 111 wrecked · #1 today ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ NAVIGATOR III+4 spaceships.treybastian.com

All you PDS self-hosters who use pds gatekeeper or something similar to get 2fa. Do you find that sometimes when you focus the confirmation code input that it just vanishes for no reason like most of the time now? I feel like this is a new issue in the last few weeks.

I was hoping LLM assisted coding would bring back apps that respected their users. No micro transactions or subscriptions trying to nickel and dime everyone. That's not really happened. If anything the dark patterns have gotten worse.

Github... telling me an action ran last week does not help me when I'm looking for a date and time. Whoever thought relative date displays were good UX needs to go in the bin.

Spaceships is kinda growing arms and legs there might be bosses now, and upgrades (not deployed to web yet) I may have also ported it to Godot

I feel like way too many people took a silly goof of a website really seriously. It’s a bit weird. I feel like more people need to get outside more.

That didn't last long, chassis was about 2 inches too small for the motherboard.

The fun part of running a PDS on your own hardware, is when you decide to move the box from a normal case into a rack mounted case, your PDS goes down while you are doing it 😅

New mechanic for spaceships.treybastian.com Tap or Click your Gravity well and watch it explode!💥 The explosion will send the asteroids flying. When used strategically it can really help beat those Evader ships. Also fixed a bug that made it look like you weren't still signed in sometimes

In today's episode of how does Trey feel about various AI things. Technical Writing - don't care. If I'm looking something up in a manual AI or not as long as the information is accurate is all I care about. Prose, no way keep that AI slop away.

Trey Bastian @treybastian.com · 29/08/2026

I'm not someone who ever saw writing code as art. As time goes on I care less about code being AI generated from that angle. I would be absolutely indifferent if Satisfactory was written by Claude. The art on the other hand, I'm still very firmly in the camp of it should be a human endeavour.

After more play, I actually think @leaflet.pub is going to win for me, even without the support for system preferred color schemes. I do ask please implement this! I'm a huge fan of light mode during the day and dark at night. I like the way they approach customisation a little better.

Trey Bastian @treybastian.com · 19/08/2026

I've been looking between these 3 for a few days now and I think it comes down to something almost ridiculously trivial for me. @pckt.blog supports system preferred color scheme settings and neither @offprint.app or @leaflet.pub do Time to play with @pckt.blog now

Spent the evening trying to get a simple 8-bit jumper working in Godot again. The physics are tricky but the joy of tweaking the jump arc is unreal. Now I have a graveyard of half-finished projects and a new one. This is the cycle. 🎮
