I don't know why you'd want to record yourself anyway, but why on earth would you use those overpriced "AI voice recorders" rather than the retro recorders with those awesome tiny cassettes?
So proud and excited to share my flash fiction "The Last Florida Panther" is out today in the South Florida Poetry Journal! Give it a read here:

It's-a me, 3D CSS Mario! π β I'm recreating Giles Goddard's iconic N64 face engine, so we can use it on the web. The rendering is handled by CSS matrix transforms, without WebGL or canvas. demo: codepen.io/alowpoly/pen... repo: github.com/layoutit/css...
I have always loved the passion around the jailbreaking community for all sorts of things. Just a bunch of people getting together to try and run terrible themes and emulators on the devices they paid for, it's great.
New Apple Watch PokΓ©tch build updated in testflight, hope you all enjoy! github.com/IdreesInc/Ap...

One should not underestimate the astonishing team effort required to stretch and resize windows to match the ever growing scope of our ambitions. Let us all be thankful to our beloved UI daemons, tirelessly keeping our frames aligned with our dreams. #mainframes #gamedev #pixelart #animation
It's a shame that the Lofi Girl group has decided to stop letting video makers use their catalog as I always thought that was a cool thing for them to do. @chillhop.com still has a program to let creators use their music though!
I wrote a manifesto for making games, and (not) selling them, for #manifestojam illomens.itch.io/no-one-is-go...

Currently building a mod that adds computers to Minecraft. They will be programmable with WASM with first-party support for Rust. I'm using the awesome Monocraft font made by @idreesinc.com in order to support over 1000 characters! github.com/TheBlckbird/... (PR that adds this is still WIP)
Made some flying fisheees ππ It's pretty mesmerising, though I'll need to think of more creatures that can fly about They move using @brysonmcbee.bsky.social's multimeshpath3d addon (github.com/brysonmcbee/...) #GameDev #IndieDev #GodotEngine #Shader
