Doing one of those Premiere video things on YouTube. Developing a Sublime Text plugin. In this case, for editing Commodore 64 BASIC. Fun stuff! youtu.be/LlyACog5IFo #RetroCoding #OpenSource #Commodore64 #Coding #Python

@theo I’m making plugins for Sublime as we speak! Some of them just might talk to an LLM.

@loyalmoses Nevertheless we must limit the excesses of Big Oil and transition to cleaner energy like solar because it makes the air measurably cleaner and this is good for everyone. Solar is truly great at this point in its development.

YouTube comments... crazy person going on about climate change in a video about age verification in operating systems. 🤦♂️
As off-topic as it is, he is right, I don't care about global warming and climate change because they are the biggest lie that has ever been told. Not real.

@ActualCorn Ever heard of the camera obscura? Many of our favorite painters of antiquity were just photocopying with paint. Labor intensive and not particularly creative.

If your content has any AI in it, I don't respect it the way I don't respect someone who traced a drawing to pass off as their own.

I cannot stop at just Atari BASIC and 6502 Assembly….
The C64Tools and PETSCII plugins for Sublime Text are coming along well! I just need to complete the BASIC translation between VICE (PETSCII) and Sublime (Unicode).
Stay tuned!

@Stretchedwiener I've given in to the nostalgia and am now coding a retro game for fun! To help spread this rewarding pastime I'm also building plugins for Sublime Text so we can edit old BASIC in the proper style with all the conveniences of a modern text editor like highlighting and copy/paste.

Programming simple retro games is how we get new game developers, kids exploring tech, fun hobbies, communities of creatives supporting each other.
Having software output a little retro game bypasses ALL of that and more.
I get this is "for fun". And it took "5 minutes". And I get that I'm "old manning" it here with my memories of hand typing a game from a magazine and modifying it to learn how to do it when I was a lad.
But we're losing something.

Underrated side-effect of AI: we are about to get a cambrian explosion of new games for retro consoles Took me 5-6 prompts to make a working game with music in assembly on SNES We’ll see “Steam for Super Nintendo” before the decade is out.

I just want to know why they all seem to be named Matt.

Openclaw is one big grift. Nobody is building anything real. It's just grifting influencers telling YOU how to build stuff (but never build anything themselves). Interesting how you can be building 24/7 but have nothing to show for it... Check the track record of these snake oil salesmen. Same type of person who polluted crypto with their grifty ways. Selling a false dream and taking money from innocent people is disgusting. You can't change my mind.

@Star_Knight12 Now I have a new goal, to strive to get past Level 3 in Git City!
English
Someone vibe coded a 3D city where every GitHub developer is a building.
It is called Git city where more commits means taller building and more repos means wider base.
Light windows shows that you were active recently.
You can even fly through the entire city and find your building just by searching your username.
And honestly, this is what vibe coding actually looks like at its best.

Presenting the "ATASCII Insert" plugin for #SublimeText. Provides shortcuts to insert ATASCII special characters in fonts like Atari Classic, EightBit Atari…
Install "AtariTools" too for truly sublime Atari code editing!

Making progress in my quest to redo that game I wrote in 1983 using Atari BASIC + 6502…
"Snorky!" is an homage to Q*Bert that follows the logic that if hopping on a small pile of cubes makes Q*Bert fun then many more cubes must be even more fun!

Where is this technology going?? While contemplating the question, here's an upbeat song about spider venom, en Español! Lyrics by Thinkyhead, arrangement and performance by #ACEStep. #espanol #AI

Music generation with #AI has come a long way! If you have enough GPU power you can use a local tool to generate music from a text prompt and/or audio input. Here's some slop I generated in < 4 minutes with #ACEStep and refined AI generated lyrics…

Apparently "Eyes Wide Shut" was too tame in its depiction of elite debauchery.

@flyosity I occasionally still run Bryce 3D in QEMU, and it's still a lot of fun! But then, like a modern fool, I process the results through Stable Diffusion….

@TheCinesthetic The movie that adds to the lore:
Even a vampire's clothing does not cast a reflection.
English
Van Helsing (2004) may have a 24% on Rotten Tomatoes, but who cares? It’s got vampires, werewolves, Frankenstein’s monster, and Hugh Jackman going full gothic hero. Impossible not to enjoy.

@VOX_of_SU Indeed. The reach of my posts calling for rationality and compassion have plummeted in recent times. I am pretty certain it is because Elon disagrees with my views, plus I'm so much more pointed, funny, and eloquent than he is.
