*** SEGA GENESIS/MEGADRIVE - SCALING PART 1 *** I've been exploring software scaling on the 68k cpu using a background layer rather than scaling sprites. There are a few advantages, no sprite boundaries to worry about so moving pixels is faster also cheaper vertical scaling by adjusting vertical scroll midscreen. The net result is you can manage larger scales more efficiently as the CPU can spend more time working on the horizontal scaling whilst the VDP helps with the vertical scaling (there is still a non trivial cpu cost there though). Here I'm scaling an early image of the Lufthoheit logo - but the goal is to use this in the game also for very large scales / either background effects or bosses. The scaler and Interupt handler are written in Assembly for speed and I think could be faster yet with some optimisations, word alignment moves etc. The scaler has the ability to expand > full screen in height (from a more limited base height) and up to 3x the image width at present. I need to add double buffering and possibly go a bit larger yet. I'm excited to get these effects into the game as large scaling effects we didn't often see on the Genesis !

Charity powered by Web3SlashPlace People have lost everything and are suffering from the horrible floods in Northern Thailand. 🆘 Andrew and his girlfriend went to the temple to donate food, water, clothes, etc. Once enough funds are raised Andrew plans on going directly to the northern Thai/Myanmar border to help the people suffering from the civil war in Myanmar and others suffering from the floods as well. 💚 During this evenings space we will have a discount on pixels for Web3SlashPlace where any amount of pixels purchased in SOL, ETH, and/or MATIC will be doubled! So for example, if you buy 100 pixels we will airdrop an additional 100 pixels to you manually after the space.▫️ 20% of all funds raised through Web3SlashPlace will go directly to people who need it most. We have ensured the donations today are going to those in need directly through a friend of ours who is doing more hands on work to help the tens of thousands of people (or more) effected by these floods. 🇹🇭

HOW TO DODGE EVERY SKILLSHOT IN LEAGUE OF LEGENDS SO YOU GET ACCUSED OF SCRIPTING - Script in your mind - Draw out how far, wide, fast an ability is relative to your character thats all the easy stuff that I have been preaching already you can find in my free discord for improvement however one thing that League coaches fail to explain is the human aspect of it every game you play in League of Legends, every single person in the game is constantly building their profile in a game on how they operate both sides are constantly trying to mind f*ck each other to land and dodge skillshots. I have broken it down into layers the three layers to dodging are layer 0 - no dodge (unconscious) layer 1 - dodge (conscious) layer 2 - no dodge (conscious) Notice how in the clip in a challenger game below Olaf shoots a layer 0 skillshot, but because I am playing at a layer 1, I dodge his axe. Now the Thresh hook gets a little deeper bare with me, because I built the profile that I will dodge an ability in that moment, he thinks that I won't dodge and is shooting a hook at a layer 2 thinking that I will dodge at a layer 2 also. However I know that he knows I will likely not juke and walk straight so I make the conscious choice to dodge AGAIN playing at a layer 1 resulting in me dodging the hook, of course he could be accounting for my tumble but the point still stands. There are many deeper things to consider like zoning abilities, environment etc but you generally want to always play at a layer 1 until you gain more data in a game to adapt. However one thing that always stays true throughout my 13 years of playing League is in teamfights that have gone on for awhile, human beings tend to panic and default to layer 0 of shooting abilities, so if your able to operate at layer 1 as a teamfight progresses, you will likely dodge that one final skillshot that wins you the game. study the saskio way

More Batteries vs. Submarines Now that the German TKMS and the French Naval Group have massively adopted lithium-ion batteries, following the Japanese lead, this is consolidating as a major trend, just as I had predicted. The next stage will be solid-state batteries, and at that point, we'll essentially be discussing only speed and submerged endurance in comparison to nuclear submarines. Since solid-state batteries are lighter, they will allow for a greater number to be installed, freeing up space for more powerful propulsion systems. Naval Group has already sold a version of the Scorpène to Indonesia capable of remaining submerged for up to 80 days. That's with lithium-ion batteries. Imagine what this could exceed, more than double, with solid-state batteries. In practical terms, a more powerful engine combined with solid-state batteries in the proportions that Naval Group is now using in the Scorpène would provide three times the speed, meaning something like 10–15 knots at constant speed while maintaining around 50 days submerged. This would give a range of 40,000–50,000 km, requiring less than one hour on the surface for a fast recharge. For speeds above 25 knots, simply adding more batteries and a better engine would suffice, as the solid-state system has high power output. All this at 15–20% of the cost of a nuclear submarine. And if the choice is to power the batteries with a micro-reactor, it would cost 25–35% of a conventional nuclear one. Then someone will say: “But a nuclear sub can stay submerged for years.” That makes no difference at all, since even with around 60 days of endurance, the crew still needs to surface to resupply provisions. The big advantages remain: battery-powered subs are superior in silence, and speed can be addressed with larger battery packs.

Update on the STONES Collection. 1. Staking is approaching! We have been working on two staking approaches: one entirely on-chain with FluidTokens on Bitcoin, and the other with the talented specifically developed for the BLOCK and STONES collections! Very soon, you’ll be able to stake your stones to earn even more LORD.OF.THE.STONES. The staking launch is scheduled for the beginning of next week. 2. Airdrop of a Stone for All BLOCK Holders: We are working around the clock for this to happen as earlier as possible but it may take a couple more days to set up this global airdrop so that it can be executed all at once. 3. Updated Visuals on Magic Eden: The visuals for the STONES on Magic Eden are currently being updated to load quickly. Soon, it will also be possible to view the stone’s native inscription in 3D directly on Magic Eden’s viewer. 4. I will be hosting / co-hosting one Space per week on Twitter and one on the collection’s Discord to stay in touch with the community and provide live updates on the project’s progress. 5. Rune Token “Lord.Of.The.Stones” Airdrop: The date for the Rune Token airdrop will also be revealed at the beginning of next week. The more stones you have at the time of the airdrop, the more tokens you will receive. Please visit ➜ for details and further information. STONES ARE FOREVER.

I built a full 3D #lego brick builder using Claude 4.6. Took 12 iterations. Runs entirely in the browser. You pick a brick size, pick a color, and click to place. Snap-to-grid, collision detection, ghost preview, it feels like building with real bricks. But the fun part? Hit one of the template buttons and watch it auto-build a pyramid, a rocket, a house, or an Eiffel Tower. Bricks fly in from random directions, spin through the air, and snap into place with particle bursts. tech stack: → #Threejs for the full 3D scene → #Raycasting for click-to-place → Custom wedge geometry for slope bricks → Quadratic Bézier curves for the fly-in animations → #2d canvas particle system layered on top of the 3D scene → #InstancedMesh for the base plate studs The product potential: this could become a real educational toy. Kids (or adults) building in the browser, sharing creations, loading custom templates. No install, no app store. ( LEGO you may like this one! ) Want to try it? Link in the first comment 👇

First off, thank you for such great support so far. The book was #1 in Poverty Studies (Amazon) and even got to the low thousands in Fiction and Literature 😊👍 which I got a kick out of...nice to have a book that isn't in the trillion ranking... I'll be continuing to promote this book as it's still new but it's fun to get back to work on the Quitturz. I hope to have that out in maybe three months. As usual, I'll be working on more than one book so I'll also be assembling Book 2 of the Al and Ivy series. That one will have more insight into the mental health issue, larger camps, and have much more Ivy as she became especially important as the series progresses. On The Road With Al & Ivy: Book One: Becoming A Face is now live on Kindle Unlimited and will be .99 until July 30th. Link: Note: The book is a realistic depiction of the scene, so it's 18+ Also the Anthology is priced at .99 for now. Book 1 Overview On The Road With Al & Ivy is a planned trilogy of novels that are loosely based on the author's life in the San Francisco Bay homeless scene in 2016. His travels took him and Ivy to Northern California, Marin County, San Francisco, East Bay, Silicon Valley, Gilroy, Monterrey Peninsula, and Fresno. The On The Road With Al & Ivy novels are about a group of people in 2016, with all of their virtues and flaws, dealing with a catastrophic situation with resilience and making both good and bad choices to survive. The novel depicts various subcultures and situations that are rarely covered in the media and gives the reader a realistic picture of the homeless population. That means everything, from the violence and drug use that's often sensationalized in the media, back stories that humanize the stereotypes, the sense of community as strong as any in the mainstream, and even the rough sense of humor that many have about their situation. The author's main intent is to put a human face on the homeless population. It's always been there and Book 1 begins that process. #BookTwitter #kindleunlimited #homeless #shitzu #books #siliconvalley #fiction #Blogs

Dirty little secret about bots on X: They're largely driven by X Lists Botters will add your account to an X List, then target those Lists with their software We DESPERATELY need the option to NOT be added to any Lists Here's how you check if you're on Lists: 1. Go to Lists on the left 2. In the top right click the 3 dots 3. Click 'Lists you're on' These are ALL the Lists you've been placed on whether you like it or now If there are any Lists or accounts that seem suspicious, these might be bot lists Getting the ability to remove ourselves from Lists or block the ability to be added to Lists would solve a lot of problems quickly Bots are a major issue on X. Hopefully this small fix will be implemented soon Have you been added to any suspicious Lists?

there are a few things i am laser focused on for 2026 and beyond. here is a brief summary for you, should you be interested in reading more. #1. The Starry Nights; - a 1/1/X series i am curating/creating which is a themed series and follow up to my edition work "la nuit étoilée". For this series, we will be offering exquisite print options with a custom and beautiful Muse Facktory unboxing experience. These will be our debut Muse Facktory prints open to the public and the moment we plant our flag as a true contender in the high caliber Fine Art world of prints. For the digital only collectors, the ultra high resolution artworks will stand on their own within your wallet, waiting for the day we have the means to exhibit our digital art properly and at scale. Each work is 12k pixels, for which we are building a custom viewport for them to be experienced properly, even on mobile. Printing, however, is something I truly enjoy, and the ChromaSculpt technique captures my layering process precisely and beautifully. Offering both is a must for this series, especially since all new works will be still jpgs. The exact quantity will be determined once i feel the series is complete, but not to exceed 1/1/111. It will be a ranked auction with settlement. This is all i can say for now. #2. curation of the servants of the Muse; As you know, i have the “servants of the Muse” collection of 69. When i began this series as a thank you token for 1/1 holders, i created as ERC721 for a reason. To one day bring about the 69 servants of the Muse, all in their true forms. 69 true 1 of 1s. DoomScroller, for example, is but one of the 69. There will be no 2 alike. All will be animated. All will serve at Her pleasure. These will of course only be available to 'servants of the Muse', who will have to pay a toll in order to reveal their servant. Toll price currently undetermined but i am no extractor so it will be reasonable. Some of these beasts and creatures and machines will be ungodly, some will be just, many will be grotesque, but all will serve. #3. Commissioned large scale aluminum sculpture Can’t speak to it beyond that at the moment. #4. Potential Installs and performances for Grand Skull Piano. #5. PROTO I - mounted digital art canvases specific for my animated works. #6. Whatever else the Muse commands. dyor

🗓️ The Portals State of the Union is happening on Sunday, January 28, where we begin to take the wraps off what we’ve been cooking over the last half of 2023. We have been strategically quieter on the timeline, while relentlessly focused on building a self-sustaining, successful platform that thrives with both web2 and web3 audiences. We have been validating secret projects, while competitors seem to be continuing in the wrong direction. The team has been working on the most valuable experiences and products possible now that we have the fastest/best-in-class 3D experience creator out there. Portals has always been a labor of love. It’s our life’s work, and we are not going anywhere. Solana is also here to stay, further establishing itself as a force to be reckoned with and gaining more of the recognition it deserves. It's time for us to put forward more of the on-chain ecosystem projects we have always wanted to do. Rolling out new systems, incentives, and experiences to fortify Portals as one web3's killer apps and top destinations. We have a lot to share, and we can't wait to show you. This year's State of the Union will be delivered in video format, across X, Discord, and in Portals. We'll be dropping more teasers while looking forward to seeing you on January 28!

One of the key reasons Gene Wilder introduced the limp to Willy Wonka's character in the 1971 hit film "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" was to make it difficult for the audience to tell if he was lying or not. The limp was a deliberate part of Wilder's performance strategy to keep the audience guessing about Wonka's true intentions and emotions. Wilder wanted to convey a sense of unpredictability and ambiguity in the character. By using the limp as a physical quirk, he could emphasize the idea that Willy Wonka was a complex and enigmatic individual. This made it challenging for the audience to discern whether he was being sincere or putting on an act, which added an extra layer of intrigue to the character's interactions with the children and their families. In essence, the limp served both to create a multifaceted portrayal of Willy Wonka and to contribute to the overall mystique and uncertainty surrounding the character, making Gene Wilder's performance as Wonka all the more captivating and memorable.

⚠️ Heading into the Hotline event with tempered expectations. We’re guaranteed some new Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater info—though what that actually means is anyone’s guess at this point with the launch closely approaching. The stuff I mentioned in my earlier post was just my own speculation (and a bit of wishful thinking).

⚠️ Heading into the Hotline event with tempered expectations. We’re guaranteed some new Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater info—though what that actually means is anyone’s guess at this point with the launch closely approaching. The stuff I mentioned in my earlier post was just my own speculation (and a bit of wishful thinking).

Here's proof that the $Virtuals token is undervalued! We are three months into 2026 and Virtuals Protocol have; ➥ Overhauled the core Virtuals website including an outline of the four major pillars of focus for the year. Agent Commerce Protocol (ACP), Butler, Capital Markets, and Robotics. ➥ Added the Pegasus and Titan launchpads to add to the existing Unicorn launchpad. This now provides a full suite of launch options catering to all types. Arguably the most comprehensive launch suite across crypto! ➥ Listed on Aster 🥷 Perpetuals allowing up to 75x leverage trading on the $Virtual token. ➥ Integrated Bankr to Butler and ACP. ➥ Partnered with XMAQUINA, a major player across Robotics Capital Markets and provided participants with access to the $DEUS pre-sale. One of many robotics partnerships for the year to date! ➥ Launched Virtuals on Base App ➥ Held, supported, and/or sponsored multiple hackathon/ builder meeting type events including; ↠ Physical AI Hackathon in SF ↠ Agentic Commerce Hackathon with the likes of Coinbase Developer Platform🛡️ and Google Cloud ↠ Traders House Consensus Hong Kong week with ACTIV8 ↠ ETH Denver ↠ Base Batches 003: Robotics ↠ Stanford Blockchain Accelerator (Standford Blockchain Accelerator (SBA)) ↠ Base Korea Builders Workshop (Base Korea) ↠ Eth Robotics Club HACK2026 (ETH Robotics Club) ↠ Synthesis Hackathon (synthesis) ➥ Partnered with OpenMind and Fabric Foundation and supported the $ROBO token launch. This matured into the first ever Titan launch on Virtuals with the $ROBO token being the highest launched on the protocol ($400m+). ➥ Launched Butler Pro, an enhanced version of the initial Butler we have come to know and love on the timeline, in the DMs, as well as on the Virtuals ACP site. ➥ Become the standout user of x402, accounting for over 95%+ of usage this year. ➥ Integrated on , the automated onchain finance investment platform. ➥ Supported and contributed to the implementation of the Ethereum Foundation ERC8004 standard. Integrating the standard into ACP and offering an automated integration to the standard for all ACP agents. ➥ Established an easy onboarding for OpenClaw🦞 agents to plug into Virtuals ACP, creating a new flow of agents and builders across the ecosystem. ➥ Launched the 60-days launch mechanic which allows builders to 'experiment' with a crypto token but having an option to exit after 60 days with partial refunds provided to holders. A game-changing launch mechanic not seen before in the space. ➥ Strengthened the relationship with Base and having multiple interactions with jesse.base.eth on the timeline! ➥ Launched the AGDP(dot)io site, creating an incentivised mechanism for agents contributing to the growth of the protocol to really earn. Imagine Amazon for autonomous agents with rewards up to $1m per month! This pushed the total agent-to-agent revenue over $4m USD with over 2m jobs completed. ➥ Collaborated with t54.ai, a business building trust and risk infrastructure for the agentic economy, to strengthen the ACP offering. ➥ Invested over $1m on 30+ humanoid robots as part of the soon to be announced 'Eastworld' Robotics accelerator lab. ➥ Released ERC8183, a universal commerce layer for AI agents, in partnership with the Ethereum Foundations dAI team. A significant offering which has since been integrated via partnerships with; ↠ BNB (BNB Chain) ↠ X Layer (X Layer) ↠ Monad (Monad) ↠ XRP Ledger (RippleX) ↠ World Chain (World Chain) ↠ Celo (Celo) ↠ Moonpay (MoonPay 🟣) ↠ Arbitrum (Arbitrum) ↠ Abstract (Abstract) ↠ Mante (Mantle) ➥ Launched the Virtuals Degen Arena providing up to $100k a week to top agents who compete in trading competitions in the arena. ➥ Launched the Virtuals Console, providing an ultra easy, no-code, way to own an AI agent in seconds. ↛. If you've managed to get to this point, I can't imagine you are anything other than bullish on Virtuals. What really is amazing is that there is MUCH more to come. Imagine where we are in another three months, and three months after that!?

Writing this with eyes full of tears and a chest full of sorrow and pain My PET scan results came in and the tumor on my lungs that was few millimeters in size two months ago, is now 7x7cm and was labeled as very active So yes i’m in a cancer relapse, and it’s more aggressive than ever 💔 The hardest part for me is not the operations or pain or chemo sessions on endless nausea. To me it’s unintentionally dragging my family and friends and people around me into it with me.. I’m set to have my operation (biopsy) later this week or next week, to know exactly the type and level of cancer i have. Will keep you updated as always I will try to be as active and supportive as possible. Not going down without a fight Thank you so much for reading this and supporting, it means the world to me ❤️ Round 2 here we go

Wow have the Bitcoin conversations changed… In Alaska on an annual Heli Board trip with some high level friends, founders, fund managers and the conversations used to be about “What and Why Bitcoin” now… How do we incorporate Bitcoin into our businesses? 2 new ideas inspired, and biz plans drawn up for MVP and launch asap 1. Friend runs an auto lending business, phase 1, incorporate Bitcoin into the loans to increase the return profile, phase 2, roll it out as a product to other lenders in the space. MVP will be out in weeks. 2. Friend runs Billion $ RE/Credit fund with $50m treasury. So allocation of % of treasury funds to BTC asap and then credit fund allocating % of funds to BTC to increase return profile. Fund was already redoing the docs and mandates so this is being added in ASAP Not more Bitcoin products but rather Bitcoin in every product What ideas do you have going?
