every ROM of the Arabic MSX clone the Sakhr computer has been dumped and emulated, available in the browser at https://www.file-hunter.com/Arabic/
not sure if ive shared this before but its an incredible resource
Got this neat guy for 5 USD at a Goodwill - they'd put it out in the Toys section. It's a Phillips Nino 500, running Windows CE 2.11, from 1999. Amazingly it still boots as soon as I've got batteries in it, and even communicates with my other WinCE device, but its lack of Windows Explorer makes installing software very difficult, as it can't show me the contents of internal storage or of the inserted CF card. I need to figure out how to Active Sync it - which means finding a cable that works. ๐

in which I embark on The Caves of Olympus, a very unconventional Apple II adventure game (pixels instead of vectors! the main character is a 50 centimeter tall robot!) published by a company previously known for technical books

So that's that: Firefox is now the only useful browser in the world.
Meanwhile, Google controls nearly the entire web browser market, far more than Microsoft ever did at the height of the original browser wars.
Using Chromium based products makes you less safe.

So cool! A one-pixel-wide font that exploits subpixels.

This UI pack will release tomorrow! It was previously exclusive to Kenney Game Assets All-in-1 but now it'll be free, for everyone. I'm improving some elements and exporting all sprites properly - so everyone gets a lil' upgrade! #gameassets

In the 1980s, Amiga heralded a new era of creativity for computing.
It wasn't even close.

Today's Golfshrine update includes multiple games that borrow the names of other games in Golfshrine, one frustrated rant about the software marketing practices of yesteryear, and the fascinating GameTrak!
