Getting married to my best friend this year, finally realising what real happiness, love and meaning is, when you’ve found the right person, you really know from the beginning

🇦🇺 🇮🇩

CT scan done, back to work

Hamachi, named similarly enough to a woman’s best friend and the name of my fork of Avocado’s first official release

Built for Linux and Windows, fixing a number of previously unsupported games, improving upon the code, design and with a lot more to come

Cobain out here adding some new GUI stuff and fixing a previously broken SPU fix while keeping a cool head

Support for building for Linux was also added but deployment isn’t quite there yet

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Ape Escape 2 (USA) is up and running, other regions still need some work, those pesky SPU registers…

Gran Turismo 2 (Arcade Mode) now works with Avocado

Only Polyphony Digital knows why they tried reading 16-bit from a non-existent 4th timer

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Started a new project

Fixed a favourite childhood game of mine, will port over a bunch of my changes from Mandarine using this as the main project moving forward

Windows only for now, give it a try, create issues if needed and share feedback

Vion soon

JIT-less PlayStation Vita emulation on iPad and iPhone has now been significantly improved, a lot of games that previously crashed the app now work

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

@211this Absolutely no idea, I’ve been getting insanely painful headaches randomly and vomit every time without fail, doesn’t matter if I’m using technology, have been outside or anything

Passed out getting my blood drawn and have a CT, not MRI for my brain in 2 weeks

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

MRI on my noggin tomorrow, haven’t done much work recently outside of rewriting Avocado (PS1) for Folium

AussieBB
$99
“250/20” - 90/5 (actual, if that)

Starlink
$150
“Residential - MAX” - 500/45~ (actual)

Absolutely worth the pain of installation

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Touching a MacBook screen just seems weird to me

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Unsubscribed from the “Meta for Developers” emails about a month ago and still receive them daily

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Do Swift Packages work for anyone else or are they just broken? Latest Xcode RC

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Climbing up on the roof tomorrow to install Starlink, hoping it’s better than whatever the fuck Aussie Broadband is giving us

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

@FlocAmbergang You’re not wrong, set up the Mac and installed Xcode within 15 minutes but the simulator downloads took 20+ minutes each even with Ethernet

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

We are back, now to download Xcode and all the simulators, clone my projects and connect to my local server for my other files

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

@iamvishal16_ios Last time it happened people mentioned reinstalling the app fixes it and it did, unfortunately doesn’t seem to be the case this time, brand new install or reinstall

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Why can’t Apple stop breaking text?

For the most part Folium does fit on iPhone Duo, there is definitely some tinkering to be had before it’s perfect though

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Progress will be a bit delayed for my apps, going to wipe my Mac and start clean

[Jarrod Norwell @antique_codes]

Guess it’s time to build my apps for the iPhone Duo. Seeing people complain because they’ve used hybrid or non-native components makes me a bit more optimistic with my entirely native apps
