plush typh real plush typh real plush typh real!!!! (art by my partner!)

my partner nerd-sniped me by showing me this post: twitter.com/ObsoleteSony/statu (image attached)

it's a Sony SRF-201 fm radio from 1985, and it's the size of a credit card and only 3mm thick. i immediately wanted to know how they got it so thin, and from staring at a picture of the internals the best i can figure is "surface-mount components and an absurdly compact circuit board design"

i don't even listen to the radio but i kind of want one because look at it

im sure im not the first person to make this joke but it came to me in a dream so i was compelled

okay hear me out. theres a lot of empty space inside NES cartridges. what if we, the brave pioneers of the homebrew community, put it to some use

you're sort of limited with what you can get away with unless you want your gimmick to only be visible/usable when you play the game on an NES-101 or other toploading model, but it's still fun to think about

I GOT A NEW COMM aaaaaaaaa it's of me n my partner!!! i love bein a typhtaur i might make this my main form tbh

also on cohost: cohost.org/polyalloys/post/431

this underpass walkway beneath the train tracks near where i live has had a bunch of mud and dead leaves and stuff in it since a recent storm. i like to use this path a lot, so i thought maybe i'd try to clean it up a little at some point if the city doesn't get to it, but i'm not sure how. does anyone have any advice? if it matters, the material is just normal concrete stuff what sidewalks are made of

why does duolingo give two of these things to share
Look how much I learned on Duolingo in 2023! How did you do?

apparently tusky supports post sharing from apps, so:
I’m a Superstar Learner! What’s your Duolingo learner style?

(ror2) apparently this isnt enough wax quails to get the necessary speed for earthshatter so i think its just fucking broken

there's a mod for bomb rush cyberfunk that lets you add custom textures for the movestyles, and i made my own skateboard design (ft. @scout's excellent art)

new pc runs everspace 2 at max settings with only small hiccups. my old one could only really play it at low settings and even then the frames weren't consistent! oh man
