So. I need eight people. Eight people who are excited to bootstrap a whole new platform. Eight people who have the time and skills and willingness to pay USD$149 plus shipping to lay hands on a Sentinel 65X revision 2 developer edition board.

These things will have every known flaw fixed, but I can't guarantee they don't have flaws I don't know about yet. That's why it's a developer edition: your contributions will help make it ready for general release in quantity.

In exchange, you get your own board, fully populated and ready to program, my undying gratitude, and any help I can give getting started with Calypsi and the development environment as it grows. This is as close to getting in on the ground floor as you're going to see.

If that seems like your kind of thing, let me know here, 'cause we can't do this without you.

Edit: So you go in with eyes open, here's what remains untested:

Cartridge port
Clock port
VERA PSG sound (it's identical to the official module in schematic, so it is very likely fine!)
SD card access (ditto, plus the code for it hasn't been written! But SPI itself works fine, or the VERA wouldn't work at all!)
Controller ports (code not written yet)

So those are the places where your contributions will be most valuable -- but I'll take whatever you got, don't worry about that.

Oh, and we will have to chase down supply on the CPU, because Mouser doesn't stock it very well, but that just means we have something to do before we put in the order.

You are not alone

hey so scientists may have figured out what causes Long COVID and also how to treat it. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-92908-7

So this is a thing that is VERY VERY much nowhere near done yet, but I want to share what I've got so far. It's a list of as many retro games as I can find which had a trans person on the dev team or otherwise involved in some way, along with a quick summary of who and what they did. It's partially an attempt to counter the narrative that trans people are some New Thing that's only just showed up on the gameing scene and also society in general, which sometimes these kinds of lists can accidentally imply, and also it's just kind of a fun bit of HEY LOOK AT ALL THIS COOL SHIT TRANS PEOPLE DID. I've found over 170 games so far, with quite a lot I'm still to properly go off on.

(Edit: That's over 300 (!) games now. Thank you SO much people who've pointed me at stuff I've missed. I'll be working on trying to play all of these and write up stuff about the ones I haven't really said anything about yet.)

I found this very big moth at work. It was sitting on the doorframe, so I had to move it. It sat on my hand and I got I good look at it while I took it away. I threw my glove into the picture for some scale.

this sketch (right image) was originally made for KDE VDG issue # 46 (Fedora KDE welcome screen) in april of last year, however, because I was too nervous to present it to the developers and communicate with them, eventually someone else created a graphic and the issue was closed before I could say anything.

recently, I decided to finish it anyway, so it isn't left to collect dust in my hard drive

At least my new pin arrived.

Keep your broke friends in mind at least once a month.

It's very hard to keep up, interact with, or even spend time with friends when you're broke, and it can really add to poverty induced depression when one's friends are constantly enjoying new things/games etc and you are left out because you can't afford them.

It's even more depressing when you're left out for months.

It's often why poor folks don't make friends outside their income bracket. We can't afford y'all's friendship.
