"Poses low risk to humans" is the nicest thing anyone outside of Australia has ever said about Vegemite.

Hello! I've been inspired by how active and supportive the OC community is over on Bluesky lately, so I wanted to spread that energy over to the fediverse. That being said, I'd like to initiate an #OCfedi share to bring the OC community here together! Let's find and support our blorbo-loving enthusiasts :caprisun:
How to participate:
• Introduce yourself and share your OC works (art, writings, animations, etc.) in the replies: you are encouraged to yap about your blorbos!
• Please keep it SFW if possible
• Remember to add ALT text to your images
• No genAl art/crypto/NFTs: you WILL be blocked
• Boost/renote so that it can reach more OC creators and enthusiasts across the fediverse!
• Support your fellow creatives!
Thank you for your cooperation!!
6 Years ago I wanted to buy a jacket in a local shop but all the maps just highlighted a few corporations.
20 years of internet and thousands of powerfull #European IT companies but our only choice was US 'google-ish' maps favoring US companies.
I thought "If you want to have something done you better do it yourself" and that was the start.
Now there's finally a European map which shows all shops at once.
Give it a share if you like.

for the past few years, i'm sure many of you have read my many lamentations about the death of the old, small web many of us grew up with.
there are tons of static site generators out there, but none of them did what i wanted: something that could build an entire site without futzing with javascript and library dependencies. i wanted something that we would have had in 2005, but didn't have in 2025.
in january, i decided to do something about it instead of whining. i started gluing together a few php scripts i had been using to build blogs, rss feeds and mini homepages. i even wrote a new mini markup language.
i thought it would take me a week. it took >3 months. 😅
it ran for the past month as globaltalk.network's interactive site, and many of you asked if i'd ever let other people spin up an instance. i can finally say: yes!
today, kiki is officially finished and released for public use. named after my little black house demon, it's small, fast, and sometimes well behaved. and, it's all written in php without a single external dependency. just unzip and go.
it's released as shareware - in the oldest, finest, jankiest meaning of the word: you're free to goof around with and share the unregistered version. build your own little kiki instance, and customize the heck out of it until it feels like your own little home in the world wide web:
"Phi. Don't grieve the grave of a man who never lived anyways..."
I've been having fun figuring out the lore that sits outside of the game I want to make. This is the first time Ive gotten to write some heavy story narrative in almost a decade, so I am enjoying myself.

This is your random reminder adding a CW on distressing current affairs (especially if that isn't your main jam) helps protect people who need to shelter their psyches on bad days.
I'm getting a lot of difficult stuff just popping up in my feed today. It's hard yo. I'm not in a place where I can hold space for that today.
Consent is sexy.
Consent is kindness.
Consent is care for the vulnerable.
Give me space to consent to what my soul is exposed to and when.
You wonderful souls saved my friend Autumn from eviction a few months ago, she's a trans woman on disability & her roommate screwed her & their other roommates for months on rent. They're a quarter to their new goal to break the lease & get into a lower cost place away from that abusive roommate!

I've been reminded that On Your Tail is a thing so I guess I gotta wishlist it so I don't forget again
So what happens when you turn on your Sentinel 65X board?
First up, the CPU boots up. This is complex compared to the plain W65C816S, but the short version is that it begins clocked by the 32KHz timer oscillator. It then probes the ROM, looking for the string "WDC" at 0x008000; if it finds it, it jumps to 0x008004 and that lets the ROM take over. Otherwise, it switches to the ~1.8MHz clock, and calls the ROM monitor, which uses the serial port for I/O.
The system ROM is supposed to take over, and instead switch to the 8MHz clock.
Meanwhile, the FPGA loads its bitstream from the serial flash ROM, and becomes the VERA, outputting 640x480 256 colour video. Once that's done, it pulls the CDONE output high, which goes to some logic that moves the select output from the serial flash ROM to the SD card port, thus enabling hardware-accelerated SPI for SD card access.
I’m Nata - book illustrator and artist drawn to dark, gothic themes. In love with Victorian vibes, vampires, and poisons. I’m an avid reader. I come from a small seaside town in Crimea,but the war first took me to Kyiv, and now I’ve found refuge in Valencia, Spain. Here by the sea, under the sun, I’m slowly healing, recovering my mind and spirit. I’ve always loved Spain -and I’m happy to be here. I’ve picked up my paints again, and I’ll be sharing my art with you
