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

Despite having been quite anxious for the release of #MinaTheHollower, I have apparently chosen to spend far more time this week building an asset viewer, than actually playing the game... figures. I have some more things planned for this, but you can poke at the game right now: mina.valentine.zip

If you want to self-sabotage your custom payment app, make registration in-store with cashier confirmation: 60% will just dismiss without even asking 30% will argue that registration works differently, even when prompted by the register 10% will confirm, but your bank may reject the attempt

Just got out of #IronLung, and am quite confused about the ending. We sort of got a resolution, but it felt a bit disconnected in what exactly played out. Maybe that's intended in an eldritch horror sort of way. The acting and camera work was great, it played a lot with the space. Would watch again!

Note to self, actually set up the #pds wildcard subdomain *and* the nginx websocket handling *before* migrating servers or setting up the domain handle. Otherwise you end up in "jwt signature does not match jwt issuer" hell, where some stuff works, but the actual appview doesn't.

Why oh why do iPads not come with a self-sufficient recovery mode, that’s let’s you reset them without a Mac? I’m currently in the process of recovering the third gifted iPad that randomly? got stuck mid transfer. Sure gives the impression of being a PC replacement if it does not even pass setup.

Why does nobody play Top Ride in #AirRiders D: I never find anyone in the queue…

If your user manual says "Pry open at the marked spots with a screwdriver, continue upwards.", you have utterly failed if the user still cannot open the device after 30m. Especially if they end up with a scratched rattle full of plastic chips. Just tell me about the clips so I don't waste my money.

Couldn't even finish the first act of Silksong before throwing it into the backlog. :/ Spent more than half of my last three hours just getting back to where I messed up some fight or platforming, usually by messing up some already cleared part. (Hollow Knight is in there for the same reason)

Definitely not going to regret getting a .zip domain...

Ah, nothing like spending a few hours recovering your project from the grips of a young VCS with a corrupted repo. A meta VCS (or more regular backups) would have totally saved me, but that already was the meta one. The base, Git, saved me instead.

Kind of insane how slapping a brand onto something is enough to get someone to engage with gacha games.
Screenshot of the card collection screen of Pokémon TCG Pocket. About half of the visible roster of 25 grass type cards is filled. 332 total collected cards, 152 unique out of 226, and 11 special.

👋 Hello to the 260+ self-hosters that have joined the network over the last week! (Notice how nothing has changed about the in-app experience? 😎) Developers, in case you missed it, we enabled federation for self-hosters last week. Read this guide to learn how to set up your own server!

Hello Bluesky, cool that you are federating now. Looking forward to playing around with atproto.
