Akira Toriyama passed away at the age of 68 recently. A cultural legend. I'm a big fan of his works, even outside of Dragon Ball and Dragon Quest. I hope his legacy carries on for more years to come.

@ke8smq i figured as much. the part number on this IBM cleaning fluid looks too new to be used on the equipment i was looking at (late 70s era, not 80s or 90s)

@damianogerli Mein leben!

I showed someone the other day some of my favorite music (usually late 20th century Jazz and Jazz Fusion) and their response was," Why do you like Hobby Lobby music so much?"

I blame my mom and dad from dragging me into Hobby Lobby so often but dammit, the music was always on point.

@foone don't give @NanoRaptor any ideas 😂

@NanoRaptor computers looked liked this to me as a kid in Kindergarten

Since uploading this, I've found out that the official Aseprite website hosts ver. 0.9.5 still. I've been using that version as of late since it has some big fixes, but overall it works the same as 0.9

Ever wondered how you can add an icon to your profile name on Mastondon? Use https://emojos.in and enter your instance's host name to see what your instance supports and easily copy them to add to your profile name.

@mcc I swear I've heard this song on Modern Vintage Gamer's youtube channel before

@ncommander two days ago, but only to save battery life 😄

@ActionRetro as the Verge would say, it needs more tweezers (zip ties)

@dosnostalgic waiting on the day someone comes out with a 486 console. Doesn't even have to have a screen. Just a little 486 box with serial, LPT, sound blaster, and VGA.

I've decided to start adding a field on my Internet Archive uploads under "Platform" whenever I upload software so other folks out there can know what is the oldest OS the program supports. I invite everyone uploading software to do the same so others can rest assure knowing if the software they acquire will run on their system.

Just uploaded the 0.9 Beta release of Aseprite to Internet Archive. It works on Windows XP, making a perfect pairing with RPG Maker 2003! https://archive.org/details/aseprite-0.9-win32

so the US/europe version seems to have 394 glyphs, and the japanese version has 984.
I think I'm only going to extract the former because I would need to know more japanese to even try the latter

Hmmm... 🤔

Saw this in a random eBay ad and thought it looked cool https://www.ebay.com/itm/325907245312?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=AHcuFPc6S6C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=R9rs6UheR6y&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

These have sadly been discontinued for quite some time, and yet no person or company has come out with a similar product since. I can't even find a DIY project that uses a microcontroller like an Arduino to interface with a HDD/SSD for use as an ODE. If I was a bit more code-savvy, I'd probably start such a project myself.
