Windows 3.1 made better thanks to Calmira II, a Windows 95 like shell that gives Windows a slightly more modern feel!
Check it out here!

After many optimisations of my 6502 code, a smaller landscape (88x48 wide pixels) runs at 25fps, while a larger landscape (128x48 wide pixels) runs at ~13fps on a stock Acorn Electron

It looks like I'll have to add a detent of some kind, to make sure it always stops in a defined orientation, but the flip-dot d10 works!

With the Limited Run edition of #maniacmansion I finally have a copy of the poster that came either the original release. It is chuck full of hints and funny tidbits.

THIS IS INCREDIBLE 😃
"an mRNA cancer vaccine developed at the University of Florida successfully reprogrammed patients’ immune systems to fiercely attack glioblastoma, the most aggressive and lethal brain tumor" through "...use of a patient’s own tumor cells to create a personalized vaccine...."
FUCK CANCER. And let's see anti-vaxxers reject *this* one.

Sometimes I spend ages researching a thing, and sometimes it all comes together in just a few hours:

Reprinted and back in stock on our website: STUPID GUY GOES TO INDIA, an autobiographical manga chronicling the adventures of Yukichi Yamamatsu, whose missionary zeal for spreading manga culture inspired him to leave Japan for the first time at the age of 56 to move to Delhi, without knowing any English or Hindi, and try to start a publishing company. Hilarious hi-jinks ensue!

i'm using a decade-old android tablet with probably 512MB RAM and it's uncanny how smooth and responsive android 4 was with this little hardware. what the fuck happened

i've always wondered why VCR remote controls rarely have Eject buttons. almost every VCR I've ever operated, save for maybe two, have required you to press the Eject button on the unit itself.
on the other end, if you personally hadn't opted out of binding arbitration, and a class-action suit comes up (and wins), would the court be cross-referencing class-action members to the list of opters-out, and be like, "nope, Person Z didn't opt out, they aren't allowed to claim damages"?
i'm sure there's some way that's actually illegal, but i'd bet you, nobody's actually gone to court about it before, and they'd have a hell of a time proving that's what the company did.
