I'm lively with effervescence!
You should spread something something something on it.

Meanwhile⦠I'm adding a new utility to "6502 Tools" for all you old-school Atari 8-bit coders out there. The "ATASCII Insert" Sublime Text plugin provides quick access to inverted and special characters in supported fonts like Atari Classic. #RetroCoding #Atari #MOS6502
I'm making steady progress in my quest to properly redo that game I wrote in 1983 using Atari BASIC + 6502β¦
"Snorky!" is an homage to Q*Bert that follows the logic that if hopping on a small pile of cubes makes Q*Bert fun then many more cubes should be even more fun!

BASIC string demo code.
Your #AtariBASIC tip of the day.
Numbers in AtariBASIC are always 6 byte floats! But you can use strings to store integer data and access it with PEEK and POKE.
Strings can also be cleverly manipulated to manipulate memory and even draw player-missile graphics.

"Convert Image" shortcut in the macOS Finder.
I find myself using this shortcut a lot more latelyβ¦
Atari BASIC code running alongside Sublime Text with 6502 Tools plugins.
The Atari 400 / 800 / XL nostalgia bug has got me looking back at old unfinished projects from 43 years ago and thinking, surely, with all my high level language experience I could do much better at Atari BASIC scaffolding code augmented with 6502 assembly today. We shall see! #RetroCoding
Where is this technology going?? While contemplating the question, here's an upbeat song about spider venom, en EspaΓ±ol! Lyrics by Thinkyhead, arrangement and performance by #ACEStep. #espanol #AI

If you have some old dusty lyrics looking for a home you can now use #AI to make something as corny as this with #ACE-Stepβ¦

Music generation with #AI has come a long way in recent times. If you have enough GPU power you can use a local tool to generate music from a text prompt and/or audio input. Here's some slop I generated in < 4 minutes with #ACE-Step and refined AI generated lyricsβ¦

My macOS ScreenSavers (implemented in Javascript using web views) were broken by some versions of Sonoma, but now they seem to work great with both the latest Sonoma and Tahoe!

As far as I can tell, he was just tired of having me as a Prime subscriber.
Iβm getting bored and antsy. As nice as my little $1800 apartment is, Iβd like to have a better kitchen. And I want to work with creative, intelligent, engaged people in the fusion of arts, sciences, and technology. Anyone in need of a multifaceted curious person with coding (and other) skills?
βAntigone was fully justified β¦β
Sat down to start working⦠boom!
Power outage! Cβmon Austin TX.
Hope Dave is doing well and this is just a vacation between amazing gigs!
We've got merchandise for sale through TeeSpring. Merch is a great way to support the Marlin project while also showing off your RepRap pride! We don't sell a lot of this stuff, so you may just end up with a rare collectible! #OpenSource #CrowdFunding marlin-firmware-schwag.creator-spring.com
Marlin Firmware 2.1.2.7 patches SPI handling for TFT LVGL UI, and adds example Configurations and pre-built Binaries for Creality 4.2.7 board and ProUI interface. This release is recommended for all users. #RepRap #3DPrinting #OpenSource

Apparently our greedy corporations and a large portion of our kooky body politic share those traits and see them as virtues to be emulated.
I used to be able to use Safari to add a web page shortcut to the Home Screen on #iOS and #iPadOS, and those shortcuts still work. But now I can only add a shortcut to the siteβs root. Is there any workaround for this? #Apple
In December we released the new Open Community License. MandicReally took it as an invitation, not just an announcement β and turned his Prusa CORE One farm into something unmistakably his, with smart custom touches built around his printing needs. Definitely worth a watch: youtu.be/GiGD0y0b8Oc
I tried to order two Seahorse Emoji sodas and the ordering kiosk exploded.
This is certainly evidence of his being compromised and corrupted. Follow the money in connection with his advisers, donors, beneficiaries, and foreign governments like the Saudis and Russians who kept him afloat for decades. #FollowTheMoney
I saw we're doing 2016 throwbacks. On this day 10 years ago, I was making the first prints on a Mendel 90 we built for the "How to build a RepRap 3D printer" class I taught at the Dallas Makerspace. I would have never guessed I'd be making a living working on 3D printers founded by RepRap today.
Join me at 6pm CST to celebrate the wonderful world of RepRap and 59 years of being an unapologetic Thinkyhead.

If the workplace culture is weird and modeled on some book the boss read, count me out! Iβll just stick to freelancing.
