So it turns out that symbols for some of 06's most elusive and complicated systems have been sitting on the X-Hax server since 2022. It cannot be overstated how helpful this will be for the recomp and future modding efforts. 🎉

🐾 The little trick lies in UTF-8 encoding~ 🐾 Bytes `0x00-0x7F` (ASCII) are always single-byte UTF8. Bytes `0x00-0x7F` cannot be follow-up bytes. That means our lovely friends `\r` (0x0D) and `\n` (0x0A) can be easily be found by searching their single byte directly. 😉

Scary times ahead. OpenAI contract around 'all lawful use' doesn't feel like a very strong guarantee when in control of humans not very good at upholding it. When does an surveillance-military-enabled AI do an automated drone strike on my house because I criticized an official?

In school you may have been taught something called SohCahToa (or similar). This is just an application of that 😉

An essential bit of gamedev math - atan2! We often know a target's position and want to face it. But how do we get the angle? angle = atan2(y / x) Or in 3D... angle = atan2(x / z) (We can also see below, what happens if we use atan instead of atan2) #godot #gamedev

after 1600 years, a NEW high level chess opening was just discovered! 🤯 1⃣ f3 - start a pawn chain on your kingside 2⃣ g4 - extend the pawn chain and attack early! After that the game is basically over. Try it out!

bsky.app/profile/sewe... While we're at it, I also patched Orcs Must Die 2!! Allows for: - Custom Resolution [normally impossible] - D3D9Ex (better alt+tab etc.) - Aspect Ratio Fix (again) - Custom FoV - Custom FPS Limit, VSync Override www.nexusmods.com/orcsmustdie2... github.com/Sewer56/omd2...

Made a Small Patch for Orcs Must Die 3. Fixes FoV on ultrawide, and allows for centering the HUD. www.nexusmods.com/orcsmustdie3... github.com/Sewer56/omd3...

sewer56.dev/blog/2025/11... A quick blog post with some cool stats on Reloaded-II mods I collected a while back. Sample size 2197. Ever curious about the file size/count stats of mods at scale? Here's the basic numbers.

Quick post about an experiment from 2 months ago; trying to optimise LLMs on superfast (>1000t/s) chips with Multi(Read/Write/Edit) tools. sewer56.dev/blog/2025/09... Written entirely by me, of course. Don't usually talk about AI: grifters and slop, but figured I'd share; it'd be a waste otherwise

Back in July I tried out NixOS, and have been daily driving it since. Here's a weird reason you don't want to store your config in /etc/nixos if you're using home-manager. sewer56.dev/blog/2025/11... tl;dr `nix shell` will cause your configs to disappear because /etc/nixos is not remapped.

How does ROLLBACK NETCODE work, why is it so difficult to program, and why is it the gold standard for fighting games? A whirlwind tour of different solutions #pixelart #gamedev #AnimationVERSUS The setup: you have a video game with couch co-op and want to add online multiplayer. Easy, right...? 🧵

Unfortunately, servers are too expensive for starving indie devs (e.g. Nintendo), so it's worth exploring other options.

Here's how this setup looks like for reference. I do work from here (remotely), and my non-work code stuff right after. Maybe I'll game on this one day 😅, I'm always coding soooo much; ahahaha, so often that's a pipe dream! Oh and I'll eventually need some wall decor that's not certificates.

POV you watch a 'Finale 4 Skip' video and @notnite.com appears in a screenshot.

bsky.app/profile/sewe... Single feed's probably overrated anyway, don't want to mix memes with IRL images when you're showing your family. Or it could be 'cope' from my end, who knows :v

⠋ Sewer56 ⣠@sewer56.dev · last yr.

Is there a *gallery app* that can just give me one feed? Well, I couldn't find one 😅. In the end, after hours, I just decided to do it the oldschool way. Sort files into folders and access them by category. And bisync all non-screenshots for stock gallery app / offline access.

Question of the day: Is there no good way to view photos/videos remotely on Android? Notes in thread. My setup: pCloud <-> NAS (Home) <-- PC / Phone When in my house I NAS via FTP/NFS; when outside I talk with pCloud, which is bisynced with NAS (local RasPi 4B, rclone bisync, 5 min cron job).

Ended up getting the Kanto Ora speakers. Really happy with those on the other hand, work like gold. Monitor needed a small raise, due to height with stand, but it works out.

⠋ Sewer56 ⣠@sewer56.dev · last yr.

bsky.app/profile/sewe... In the end I refunded the speaker, and bought a regular set of speakers; as god intended. If I ever need anything 'more', I'd wire up to a wiim pro-like device, so I can get both a good DAC and the 'smart' stuff at the same time.
