FYI, if you received an email from AWS saying you racked up 40 billion USD in AWS costs, dont worry, its a bug. They have an incident for it here health.aws.amazon.com/health/status What a terrifying email to receive. 😶

My new job is entirely in office so I brought my moonlander keyboard into the office which left me without a split ergo keyboard at home. If I can make a foot pedal how hard could a keyboard be? Well there was a few new challenges but after a bunch of time in CAD, parts are starting to arrive.

I had always thought it wasn't possible to print keycaps for choc v1 switches, I thought the pins would always snap off. So I was buying mass produced keycaps for DPedal's side buttons instead.

I'm going to be streaming the development of my new game! The link is twitch.tv/digsdev and I'll be live 10am-7pm AEDT Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. See you there!

My brother just released this game he's been working on for over 2 years, its short and sweet, each level feels unique and makes you go "huh". Its pretty cheap so I'd recommend giving it a go if you like this genre.

Today I'm announcing DPedal V3, a redesign of my open source assistive foot pedal. Its been in the works for a long time and I'm really excited to finally release it. I've set up a website which includes detailed build instructions: dpedal.com

DPedal

A USB foot pedal with controls for up, down, left and right plus some extra buttons.

dpedal.com

Custom PCBs with vias are easy, if the vias are already there!

I've been working on a redesign of dpedal that is more robust and uses an RP pico instead of a custom PCB to bring down the cost of an individual making their own. I'm happy with the CAD design, time to get printing and see how it handles reality.

I thought all Raspberry Pi Pico's had USB C, but it turns out only my slightly bootleg one from Amazon does that. Only realized when I bought a second one lol

In honor of spooky month, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand I'll go first: Six page commercial lease.

New video! youtu.be/9gUPjIQT9Fg I'm really happy with this one, I pushed the production value up a bit, and tried a bunch of new things. There's a few wonky things left in, but time to just ship it and learn rather than endlessly redo.

I built my own controller to play Smash Bros.

new video! Making videos has turned out to be quite fun. I have so much to learn but I've been slowly getting there. youtu.be/1Zo4CKk5WPk

My brother has been working on this first person puzzle game for a while and is looking to release it soon. I had a lot of fun playtesting it so wishlist it on steam if it looks like your jam.

Somehow, I've been making platform fighters for over 20 years now.

Small site update for all you rukaidata nerds out there. wario and kirby hitboxes are now fixed on all dash style moves. e.g. rukaidata.com/P+/Kirby/sub... Thanks to @eontas.bsky.social for nerd sniping me at the right time. Images: before -> after

pretty sure every CI job for every Rust crate i maintain just broke today: github.com/rust-lang/ru... :/

feat(cli)!: remove implicit toolchain installation by rami3l · Pull Request #3985 · rust-lang/rustup

Closes #3943. As a follow-up of #3983, this PR makes rustup toolchain install (or rustup install) the only way to ensure the installation of the active toolchain (apart from installing it manually)...

Still figuring out how I will use bluesky vs mastodon. I've been using mastodon for tech stuff for years now and it's been great. On the other hand seems like most of my smash friends have moved over to bsky now. Anyway I recently built a custom controller for smash around the gram slim PCB.
