Our first Christmas update kicks off with the recovery of an #Amiga Codemasters platformer that's been lost for 30 years. #GTW is proud to present the full game of Stuntman Seymour, thanks to Ashley Hogg. We hope you enjoy it, and more to come tomorrow!

Smartphone manufacturers have recently begun announcing they will support their newer models of phones with at least five years of software updates. They like you to believe they are taking responsibility by themselves at the benefit of us the consumer.

The reality is that the new EU #Ecodesign guidelines are forcing them to do this if they want to stay on the European market:

cute latex kobold drones 

For the first time in months I've had the energy and desire to do some avatar work in the evenings. I've been making K-Drone 2.0. I used the original to sculpt on top of but otherwise it's a new version from scratch.

No, these stores do not have permission to sell prints of my 3d models. Don't buy those. #scamalert #fursuitmaking #fursuithead

after beating myself up and getting teary over my inability to draw for about 4 hours I finally decided to try for 35 minutes and sketched a renamon im happy with. Imagine if I spent the entire time drawing! Also the mental gymnastics has left me exhausted, so I have to stop here.

still wanted to show what i managed to do today

:ReBoot: Big #ReBoot news! :ReBoot:

The master tapes have been found by the ReBoot Rewind documentary crew and they need our help with finding a working D1 tape deck to digitize them.

Crossposting this from Facebook:

🚨THE MASTER TAPES EXIST AND WE NEED YOUR HELP🚨 THIS IS NOT A DRILL🚨

Hey you, YES YOU! We have some good news to share!

For years, there have been rumours circulating about the status of the original PAL D1 masters of ReBoot and whether they still exist. After visiting Mainframe Studios yesterday to take a look through their ReBoot archives, we’re happy to confirm that the masters are all here, for every episode of the show!

Getting a proper digital transfer of the D1 masters is high priority item for us. It would mean having the entire series in the best possible picture and sound quality, presented as accurately as the day it was rendered. There’s also a library of additional ReBoot content (animation tests, toy commercials, Electronic Arts video game footage, IMAX content) that is currently stuck on the D1 format and we need to preserve it for the future. This would obviously benefit the documentary but ultimately, it would benefit the fans the most!

Here’s where we need help. We need a working D1 tape deck to capture all these tapes. Mainframe hasn’t had one for years. We haven’t been able to find anyone in Vancouver, British Columbia, or even all of Canada that has one of these tape decks. We’d greatly prefer buying or renting one of these decks so that the tapes can be captured locally, without needing to ship them.

If anyone has a lead on where we might be able to get one of these decks, please contact us!

Mastodon is experiencing a wave of SPAM on public networks, open to all registrations without limit or verification.

It's unfortunate, but it proves that Mastodon is now a prime target and a viable means of communication. It's just a matter of time before we adapt with advanced detection tools.

We recommend the utmost vigilance. We take the liberty of temporarily suspending the public flow from these instances on a limited basis without degrading your experience of communication with other network members.

Thank you for your understanding.

VRChat avatar commission for Zvork, featuring his fearsome were-sergal!

This was my first time working on a sergal character. I had a lot of fun, and I got to use both drawn art and Zvork’s fursuit as a reference for this. Thank you, Zvork, for the commission!

Traveling these days is pretty pricey, so it's a lot cheaper to do it yourself. Even if your wings do get tired...

ukpol (transphobia, call to action) 

So the government put out its guidance for how schools should treat trans pupils - and, unsurprisingly, it's useless and transphobic.

This is in the draft/consultation phase, which means they're taking feedback. If you're a teacher, or have a kid, or are a current student, or have any other reason they might listen to you, might be worth filling it in: consult.education.gov.uk/equal

i see a bright future for the internet and tech industry

- crypto is fully dead
- ai will eventually start dying
- twitter is actively dying
- the fediverse is only getting more popular
- linux is more popular than its ever been and its still growing
- windows marketshare is on a slow but steady decline
- less and less people are buying game consoles
- $50 handhelds are providing a better retro gaming experience than nintendo's offering of 5x the price
- people are starting to pirate media again
- chinese electronics manufacturers keep dropping banger products every day for lower and lower prices

If I do it won't be until I've been on HRT for a while and my body shape there has settled.

What if I get my Renamon thigh markings tattooed on my actual thighs? :bunhdthink:
