I felt like being a little louder than usual today, so here's a rainbow strap on my nerdiest watch.

I was talking to a teenager and they didn't believe me when I said that text messages used to be used for things other than 6 digit numbers@foone I'm not in love with it either. I've learned to say "text or WhatsApp me" when exchanging numbers with someone and they can just latch onto whichever option they understand best

What's the most yellowed you've ever seen an old bit of #retrogaming or #retrocomputing gear get?@danderson they came in black, white, and translucent red or blue, but not 'nicotine yellow'

Mine is this poor old Gravis GamePad Pro, for which its seller on eBay would like the sum of AU$39. Look at it, it's gone a darker shade than the yellow button! (It will not be joining my collection.)

Looks like my "computers are a bit shit nowadays, hey?" thread (https://digipres.club/@timixretroplays/112630830459040204) is going around again, so - hello, new followers!@danderson what do you remember about that game? If you recall it playing very similarly to Secret Agent, it might have been Crystal Caves, which also has a "HD" remake. I'm also in a couple of different Discord servers where people would love to help rediscover an old game (including Apogee, who have been properly "back" as an indie publisher for a few years now).

Taking apart a MacBook while laying down: even when unable to sit at my desk due to a medical condition, I MUST TEARDOWN!@foone halfway across the river, the scorpion begins to disassemble the frog, and says "I am sorry, but I couldn't help myself. It's my charac-- oh shit a Varta? This is your lucky day, pal"

Looks like my "computers are a bit shit nowadays, hey?" thread (https://digipres.club/@timixretroplays/112630830459040204) is going around again, so - hello, new followers!I am also proud of other things. I almost never post here about anything ever lumped into "politics", and CW when I do, but if you don't consider yourself *at least* generally in favour of LGBT folks and rights then we should not interact. I am mostly here to share fun, kind and interesting things I make or find with like-minded people, and am completely uninterested in humouring bad-faith rhetoric. 2/2

I collect vintage game controllers and do a few #retrogaming and #retrocomputing posts, but have a lot of long-term #3Dprinting and #Arduino projects on the go - AMA about and and all of that. I don't talk specifics about my work, but have done IT stuff my whole life and am proud to fight for my users, whoever they are at any given time. 1/2

I finished another #webdev side project and built the QR code generator of my dreams: :fietkau_software: https://fietkau.software/qr@julian hey! Thanks so much for this, I'm using QR codes in a couple of different hobby projects and this is also the QR generator of my dreams, too.
I have one quick feature suggestion/request - just something to say how big the image is in pixels (as simple as "33x33" for example), with or without the all-white border. This would be especially useful for planning incorporating QR codes into pixel art.
