Thank you rural gas stations

Persona 5.
Wasn’t the biggest fan of RPGs but 5 is as easy as Chrono Trigger, with a cozy life sim and anime stapled ontop. A fun ride if you enjoy any of these. Though drop the difficulty to easy if you aren’t the biggest fan of RPGs
The SGDQ run of Balatro is amazing if you wanna see how crazy it can get.

There should be a heat map to show how late trains are in the routes. Canada would just be red 🤣
I buy based on trust, and at this time, steam hasn’t lost it.
They’ve made their drm more lax over the years while Sony and microslop have worsened theirs. Like how you couldn’t easily play your games offline before steam deck.
Still buying my games from GOG first though.
The skit was the the boys were going to make an ad for the new Volkswagen, this one was from Clarkson. It’s honestly hysterical
My recommendation was more of a "quick turn around to solve a problem" solution. I would hope they would've already reached out to Core designs, and Core Designs appear to be responsive to issues, even out of the warranty period. However Amazon can have a new charger at your door step in days if you wanted to do basic trouble shooting.
Yup it's a Small Bezel. Put it there just in case due to the reported issues of the screen cracking, and I have a history of banging my arms into things. But I am now just liking the extra color

Yes there is. Wouldn't have helped me with what I wanted to do with this project. But it does exists
Nah, PS3 was just like today. Just their arrogance bit them in the butt.
PS3 was $599USD and was made fun of for that. They had no games and just expected devs to come to them. Like they did with PS2. They didn’t see Xbox as a threat… until they were.
Difference was back then the 360 was competition. So Sony had to come back swinging.
They dropped the price (by loosing PS2 backward compatibility and streamlining the hardware), they paid out the nose for exclusives, from both their first party devs (uncharted, resistance, Infamous, LittleBigPlanet) but also the new and growing market of indi devs (Journey, PixelJunk Monsters, Patchwork Heroes).
It’s why the end of the gen, PS3 matches the sales of Xbox. And why when PS4 came out they moved must of the “greatest hits” over to PS4.
However their attitude remained, not learning from this. It doomed the Vita, and it’s hurting them now. Sony needs real competition, and while it’s there with PC. They don’t see it, just like with Xbox and I don’t they they will see it until it’s too late.
My watch face, eyeing it carefully for bugs. Paranoid I forgot something 🤣 (loving it though and happy I can get a Aqua color like in platinum)
The Time 2, loving it. Had the original time and it feels like it but smoother and faster. Time has moved on and I hope Pebble will make a more expensive one which has GPS for actual fitness tracking. But as a smartwatch, it’s crazy that no one else has made a superior product.
The Framework 13, best laptop I've ever gotten. Now I got it at a time when RAM and storage was cheap, so it was a lot cheaper than it is today. But even the base AMD machine is a beast when it comes to development and gaming. Not as good as a steam deck, but I don't think I have a need to upgrade for a long time.

Finished my first coding project in a very long time. A watch face for the Pebble's.
(programming.dev)
I've been meaning to make new dev projects for a while. But finding the time to sit down to just code is difficult for me these days. However I wanted to make a watch face for my new watch and I just said screw it.
Through a mix of using the Pebble SDK documentation, and referencing a few AI chatbots, mainly GPT-OSS I'm running in Alpaca, I was able to make it, make it run, and since it's in C, I was able to have no memory leaks (according to the logs).
I've uploaded the source code to Codeberg if you want to look at it, I've yet do document it, so hopefully it's not too hard to understand and not a spaghetti mess.

** Notes on my experience using AI to aid in coding **
When I was taught to coding, Google-fu was the goto way if/when the documentation fails you. However with both how old, and incomplete the Pebble SDK docs are, Google-fu wasn't helping since the info it would pull was about a decade or older and mostly out of date or hard to decipher information on Stack Overflow. I would almost say using an AI along with the actual documentation and tutorials was a necessity for me to even finish this project.
The AI wasn't perfect, endlessly gas lighting me, telling me to do over the top things for functions I already implemented, and putting me down rabbit holes going no-where. But compared to what I could get from Google, and it's ability to try and break down what the code is doing, it was a lot more helpful than I thought it would be.

The tool I used for it is called the Retrode2, a cartridge dumper which doubles as a 2 SNES and 2 Genesis controller hub.
With a bit of patience you can even run SNES carts on a Steam Deck https://mastodon.social/@16bitvirtual/116479936082268893
Is it cheap? Nope
Is it sensible? Absolutely not,
Was it fun? 100%
The only tell is a slight bump on the seam line of the back. It’s 0.1mm layer heights and 0.6mm thick.
Printed in TPU, I was looking for a solution like this for a future project and wanted to share it with someone.
So I wanted a bag which glows. This lead me down a weird rabbit hole that ended up with 3D printing TPU on top of cloth with a hole cut out of it.
The process was fun and it came close to the original design. Though I would made a lot of changes if I was to make this again.
I also made a TPU foam insert for the strap. Worked well.
Edit: more photos of the bag
This is PETG, one was left out in about 40% humidity the other was dried to about 20%
