Cohost is leaving us. I’m going to copy Lilla’s feburary devlog here instead.
Cohost Cohost was a social media blogging service that popped up shortly after Elon Musk bought Twitter. It had the same vibe as Tumblr, but with a smaller community and a lot more CSS crimes. Unfortunately they were no longer able to sustain the cost of hosting the platform, so at the start of the…

We went on a trip to Spain!
This post is going to be mostly a straight copy of my travel blog post that I wrote while the trip was going on, including recaps of what we did on various days, and my thoughts and experiences of the trip. If you’d like to see the original post, it’s here. I’ll also add some…

PSA – Don’t make the same mistake I did.
How much stuff is on your computer? How much of it is important to you? Photos? Stories? Projects? Memories? Whatever it is, one thing I can tell you for sure is that it’s expensive. So this is a PSA to all of my readers: Make sure that you create a backup of your computer drive.…

On the topic of watches, weird firmware bugs, inaccurate documentation, and rainbows.
So in this last post, I started, and arguably finished, making a new watch face for a Fitbit Versa 3. This time, I’m gonna drag you with me as I relive how I tried to make the steps ring fancier, and how it blew up in my face. Also this time, I’ve got all the…

Did you know I’m allegedly a YouTube content fox now apparently????
Title, tbh. Basically, something I do on the regular after work is visit one of the arcades near work, and a month or so ago, I learned that they are super lax about recording equipment, which is super nifty considering the kinds of games that are there cough cough. That being said I’ve recently been…

I just got a new watch, and I can’t find the watch face I like, so lets remake it myself!
So for the last couple years, I’ve had myself a Fitbit Versa 2 as my watch of choice, and on it, I had a watch face that I like that does a lot of cool stuff. This watch face is called Hourly Steps, by MC11010, and it’s done me very well for the last 3…

Getting into the meat of the website. Put The Block Part 2
At the end of my last post a little while ago, I had a normalised database, which tbh, I’m going to be sticking with for the time being. I’ll just make some utility functions to fetch high scores, and some attributes on relationships to get the metrics for them, and unfortunately right now I’m kinda…

The Technical Details. Put The Block Part 1b
This is a sister post to Put The Block Part 1a. It’s going to be considerably dryer, more technical, and hopefully less unhinged, and is gonna go into the details and hardships that I’ve had to consider and overcome during my work so far on my new game agnostic score website, Put The Block. What…

Time for something new. Put The Block Part 1a
It’s been a hot minute, I burned myself out on Turing Complete, as any ADHD person would hopefully understand. Anyways, Reddit shot itself in the face and Twitter is on the verge of dying pretty hard, so all my internet junkfood is being taken away and I need something to keep me occupied, so I’m…

Let’s start planning the next one – PPU Part 4
Or in other words, how I’m going to make a new PPU that draws in scanlines instead of tiles. Now, the last PPU was cool and all, honestly impressive that it even works, and can be quite succinctly summed up by one of the responses I got on the Turing Complete Discord about it, which…
Got any book recommendations?
