There was a "Slayer Burger" next door to a Castle Rat concert which seemed hilariously well placed. Also, Castle Rat is rad. #CastleRat

Also, the opener was this shadowy cloaked figure known as Wraith Knight playing spooky jams on the keyboards. It was an extremely good way to ease into the mood of this concert.

Looks like hatariB is now available through the RetroArch core downloader! Might need to go to Online Updater > Update Core Info Files first? Anyway, my Atari ST emulator core adaptation is now ready for widespread use! Hopefully this makes exploring the ST library a little easier.

Got 10 seeds from the first 3 carolina reapers that grew, after that I think the jalapeño was blooming so this is all I've got. Many more reapers on the old plant, a bunch of small jalapeños not yet ripe, and the new reaper plant is just starting to flower. 🌶️🌱

It's been a while since I looked at the Wii U jailbreak situation, but apparently it's had a major overhaul with a new "Aroma" framework that feels a bit more natural than before. Also, there is Trogdor here now. 🏚🔥🐉

I haven't really used my Wii U much since I got a tablet, which is better at everything I was using the jailbroken Wii U for, but it's nice to see the old device getting some maintenance. Unfortunately Retroarch hasn't migrated to Aroma officially yet, but there are still ways to run it.

Today marks the 16th anniversary of L'Abbaye des Morts. And we're working on an update! It was a small side project that @gryzor87.bsky.social and I made in the afternoons during a week-long trip to France. We released it in the void, but somehow it became a classic within the homebrew scene.

My two favourite pictures of Tim Curry, in his partial Legend Satan costume. Having a drink, and also hanging out with Grace Jones, who apparently popped by the set.

Yesterday our car was nearly out of gas. While I pointed at the open gas station visible down the road, another passenger insisted on asking google, which led us to a closed station several KM away. Apparently "nearest gas station" in google search doesn't redirect to maps, it just makes up stuff.

My first attempt at making vindaloo, and it's turned out beautifully. Tangy, spicy, savoury. I don't like onions so I pan-roasted some carrots instead. Pork, with a little bit of potato. One of my carolina reapers was enough to make it very spicy indeed. 🌶️🥔🍛

The old carolina reaper plant is in full goblin mode; it will be a very spicy autumn. Jalapeños are coming too. The new reaper plant is not yet blooming but seems very healthy. 🌶️

My favourite stool, salvaged from my dad's classroom many years ago. It had taken some water damage and the seat was splitting apart, so I've tried to restore it back to the condition of being a comfortable place to sit.
