I took 1.7 million photos over 6 days to catch this photo of a commercial jet in front of the sun. The moment it happened, TWO floating prominences were visible, making this not just my best aircraft transit photo, but one of the luckiest of my career! Videos of the transit 👇

An average picture that you save on your phone or PC has a size of around 800 kilobytes. It doesn't do anything, it's just a static image. Now take a game like Elite which had a size of 22 kilobytes on the BBC Micro, or 82 kilobytes on the C64 - and now think about what Braben and Bell turned those 22 kilobytes (or 82 kilobytes) into. A universe with eight galaxies, each containing 256 star systems (for a total of 2,048 planets/systems). Each system also featured unique details: government type, economy, technology level, population, commodity prices, and even descriptive text (e.g., a planet known for "carnivorous arts graduates" or similar quirky combinations). If you still need a bit more help to contextualize that, try this: Elite was smaller than many modern text files or desktop icons, yet it contained (and let you freely explore!) a multi-galaxy-spanning universe that felt vast and limitless. By the way - for thos who will argue "but the universe and stars were created randomly, so that's easy" - I think you wil find that the word is procedurally (with structure), which is not random... and anything but easy. Oh, and by the way, the game also rendered 3D wireframe ships, stations, and planets in real time on processors with 2 MHz. Impressed yet? This is no slight on today's game designers. They work with what they have, and that's okay. But when you think about the worlds that some programmers created with the tools they were given, it sometimes breaks my brain trying to understand how they did it. Elite is a true masterpiece on so many levels. I played the C64 version back in the day, and even 40+ years later it still feels like one of the most incredible programming wonders ever.

Happy 76th birthday to TRON himself, Bruce Boxleitner! He has portrayed TRON every time he has appeared in the franchise, and I can’t imagine anyone else in the role!

So if they're using Aliens to distract us from the Epstein Files, is this technically Alien vs. Predator? 🤔

ゲームっぽく見えますがただの技術デモです。 VDPコマンドをキューに積んでおいて裏で処理を…みたいなテクニカルなことは一切やっておらず、ただ順番に実行しているだけです。 MSX2って結構凄いです😉 MSX2だってちょっと頑張ればスムーズに横スクロールできる【Part2】 youtu.be/nOcMMkJQuRw?si…

Star Force for MSX also received an MSX2 smooth scrolling patch by Kaizou Kaikai in 2022. It's a vertical scrolling shoot 'em up ported by Hudson Soft for the Famicom/NES and MSX, based on the 1984 Tehkan arcade hit. More info and links: msx.org/news/en/star-f…

セガマークIII「R-TYPE」 最近R-TYPEがアツいので久しぶりにマークIII版 ハードスペックに合わせながらもかなり忠実に移植されたマークIII版ですが新ハードの波に押されてしまったのか当時の自分も発売されてたのに気がつきませんでした FM音源も素晴らしい
