ive been playing stardew valley a bit lately and because i'm me it's got me wondering why, despite all the different ways worldbuilders change their settings from reality, the week always tends to end up at seven days long. i mean, i know it's because of cultural prevalence from the... babylonians, i think?... but it stands out to me a little bit that that's one of the things that so seldom gets changed

It took over a month to paint this artwork. I made it with my favorite open source tools, Krita & Blender. deviantart.com/sylviaritter/ar #art #mastoart #fediart #illustration #krita #blender3d

@hax this is exactly what i had in mind actually, this or the orange pi 800 or something like it. i just want more options of this kind

@Hearth i mean ideally you wouldn't need a modded console to play a homebrew game you bought a disc for

everyone's making steam deck form factor gaming handhelds. what i want is a keyboard form factor computer. maybe with a detachable screen for portability. no not a laptop that's different fuck you

@monorail (granted that might be just cos im not looking in the right places)

@monorail sorry - i guess i meant "a thing" in the sense that e.g. nes or dreamcast homebrew are a thing, with fully standalone homebrew games still being made and sometimes physically released to this day. i'm not aware of such projects for the gamecube

@Hearth physically it's the size of a dvd but im pretty sure the format differs. iirc it's something to do with encryption that involves a YAG-laser burst cutting area engraved into the disk

the other day i was thinking about the idea of gamecube homebrew. i wonder if it'll ever become a thing. i suppose it's hard to test on the real hardware without somewhat invasive modding since the disc format is proprietary... which would also make physical game releases almost impossible...

I joined mastodon today because the CEO of #tumblr had a complete meltdown recently when people called him out for deleting a trans woman's blog because she posted a transition timeline. The vibes were definitely off, just doesn't feel like a safe place right now. I'd love to follow more #trans and #queer folks on here! This is my second social media account (third if you count myspace. omg should I go back to myspace??) so I need all the help I can get with navigating this place.
