I've been waiting to write this article for almost 2 years now. It describes what is probably the biggest breakthrough in our 64k intro creation process in a decade. https://t.co/Mat6KyuHvV #64k #demoscene

This year’s Christmas Medley came together relatively quickly. It’s a mix of “I Saw Three Ships” and “Frosty The Snowman” in a somewhat punk-inspired rendition. Hope you enjoy! Happy Holidays!

It's a few weeks late due to work and family travel, but I'm proud to finally release my 2022 xmas medley. This year it's a medley of Band-Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" and "It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year".

Also cool is this single-header RISC-V emulator (without MMU) that can run a basic version of Linux. Only a few hundred lines of code. https://t.co/wFzFvFMG4M

This is cool! Linux running on a RISC-V emulator written as a pixel shader: https://t.co/4N2frKVsX5

@GavinPugh Congrats! 🧑‍🍼🍼

This is an insane demo given the hardware it runs on. Truly impressive!

Area 5150 demo is mind blowing: https://t.co/vtsQRFuOe4 - this is running on a 1981 PC with 4.77MHz CPU and CGA graphics.

@olson_dan @ChrisGr93091552 Where do the speaker cables come out of the wall? If it's at a single gang low voltage bracket, they make in-wall Bluetooth amps that fit a single gang box, like this one: https://t.co/8iRf7fkiAV

It's true honor for us in Future Crew to receive the @assemblyparty 30 Years Awards for Unreal (Ground breaking production) and for Second Reality (Best demo).

It's incredible that our demos from 1992 and 1993 evoke such appreciation after decades.

It means the world to the people who created these games when we receive fan art. Especially from the kids who had so much fun playing them!

Recently got to do some Rust dev at work after only having done little toy things before to learn the language. Pretty fun and highly recommended. The dev experience in VSCode is really good IMHO.

@olson_dan From my (limited) experience with two boys born before the pandemic, it's parenting that mercilessly steals your free time.

This is an excellent, albeit long article on the importance of the James Webb Space Telescope that NASA and ESA launched into space recently.
