I am completely uninformed here. I don't even know what state OBX is in, or the current legislative rights or anti-rights.
But fuck this. Pinball is for everyone. Pinball should be a safe space, but sadly continues not to be.

I gave the IFPA my view of the trans-exclusionary OBX pinball tournament. I reject the notion that it's the responsibility of trans people to compromise with transphobia, and also reject that it's just a "women's issue".

As part of his new role with Multimorphic, Kevin is making cool social media content. This is a fun exploration of some of the features on #portal for Multimorphic P3 #pinball platform.

This is super fun that this has quietly been sneaking its way into games for years. Now if only my B worked reliably lol
We can finally talk about this secret cheat code hidden in more than two dozen #Playdate games! For the last few years we've been quietly encouraging devs to sneak RUBDUBDUB into their games. Now we're excited for the community to discover where the code is hidden 🕵️ playdate-wiki.com/wiki/RUBDUBDUB
RUBDUBDUB
RUBDUBDUB (right-up-b-down-up-b-down-up-b) is a secret cheat code hidden in multiple Playdate games. Many uses of the code are still to be discovered by the community and developers are encouraged to continue adding the code to more games.

I released an update to Bird Watcher for the Multimorphic P3 pinball platform today. It adds support for the new Portal module (which I am a developer on)

I feel since the big Kashi strike, quality control has gone downhill. I often get incorrectly packaged bars.
This was surprising though, 7 bars instead of 5. Weight was way off. Heck, this might have set off the self checkout machine at the grocery store.

...And we're out of beta, we're releasing on time
It is exciting to see the game reach this milestone. Games have reached customers, 1.0.0.0 is released to the public. There are some really cool experiences waiting for you in this game.

I am pretty far removed from academic computer science these days, but this popped up in a recommended article, and just as a result, this is very cool.
I will try to file this away as weird trivia.

Every time I see a photo of Stephen Miller, it reminds me of the Miike Snow music video Genghis Khan. Maybe one day he will find his James Bond and stop being an evil villain.

My disappointment in Google is difficult to put into words. The company I left at the end was not the same as the company I joined at the beginning. But part of me still hoped that they stood for some of their principles.

#septembit end of day 29.
I caught up and moved ahead adding bin, hospital, bridge, park and skyscraper.
I will see if I find time to try to put do day 30. It will be hard because by scales and perspectives don't all work together.

I was at a pinball event yesterday (I had fun, but was disappointed with my play/finish) so I had missed yesterday's drawing.
The Hydrant was hard. I drew 4 of them before settling in this composition.
