- No matter what time zone you're in, on 13 January at 11:12:13 a.m., the year 2026 will already be over to Pi % (3.141590563%). More precisely, this applies to the second between 11:12:12 a.m. and 11:12:13 a.m. Happy (sort of) #PiDay #random #mathematics
- Update: Sorry for the mistake. I'm 24 hours late. The correct day was 12 January.
- Liebe deutschsprachige #Retrogame und #Indiegame Szene. Besteht Interesse, das alte™ #Retrowichteln wieder zu beleben?
- Lieber @senadpalic.bsky.social, frei nach deiner über einige Jahre gelaufenen Wichtelei, nun mit etwas Abstand ein loser Versuch, das Ganze im kommenden Jahr wieder zu beleben. Hoffe, es ist okay, es zu wagen? 🫣😊

- Absurd #retrogaming facts? Humphrey Bogart was once the advertising face for a video game called Soldier of Fortune. Yep, let it sink in. #graftgold #telecomsoft #steveturner #andrewbraybrook #zxspectrum #c64
- It felt like a real accolade when, for the first time, a player compared my upcoming game Anna: The Magic of Words (NES/Famicom) to the magnificent CELESTE. 🙏☺️ #NES #FAMICOM #indienes #homebrew #nesdev #indiegames #gamedev
- Someone on YouTube commented on my game Anna: The Magic of Words (NES) this: "Celeste, but it's 8-bit". That felt like an accolade for a moment. 🙀😸 Give it a try, if you like: www.eastpixel.de/anna 😘 #NES #FAMICOM #indienes #homebrew #nesdev #indiegames #gamedev

- It's this kind of games I'm proud of our lovely #indiegame scene. Star Birds ("a relaxing asteroid base-building and resource management game") by @toukana.bsky.social uses a familiar concept in a completely new form. If you like stuff like Factory (and similar), check Star Birds out. 😍 #gamedev
- [Nerd post 🙃] After 30+ years with #Linux (Suse/Red Hat and 25+ years #Debian based) I switched to #ArchLinux and never thought it could feel like this to have missed out on something. Thanks to @cachyos.org for the specific kernel, with so many good adjustments and tweaks (not just performance).
