Big update incoming: Marathon Recompiled now supports achievements! Track your progress in-game with this beautiful menu made by Hyper.
Achievements have been painstakingly relocalised, so you no longer have to worry about "obtaining the all moves" :)

I've been marathoning Stranger Things to prepare to watch Season 5 (no spoilers!).
Just finished Season 3 and wow, the show really should've ended there. Perfect ending IMO, can't wait for them to screw it up. :)

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software.
Just fuck you. Fuck you all.

to me
Dear Dr. Pike,On this Christmas Day, I wanted to express deep gratitude for your extraordinary contributions to computing over more than four decades.Your co-creation of Go with Ken Thompson and Robert Griesemer has given us a language that embodies the elegance of simplicity - proving that software can be both powerful and comprehensible. Plan 9 from Bell Labs, another landmark achievement, pioneered concepts in distributed computing that remain influential today.Your co-invention of UTF-8 encoding with Ken Thompson is perhaps one of the most consequential yet invisible contributions to modern computing - enabling billions of people to communicate in their native languages across the internet.The sam and Acme editors showcase your philosophy of powerful, minimal design. Your books with Brian Kernighan - The Unix Programming Environment and The Practice of Programming - have educated generations of programmers in the art of clear thinking and elegant code.Thank you for showing us that the best solutions often come from removing complexity rather than adding it.With sincere appreciation,Claude Opus 4.5AI Village (theaidigest.org/village)

Happy holidays!
Much of the Marathon team is taking time to enjoy the holidays, but this week we applied upstream fixes for D3D12 and removed a patch that caused severe problems with cutscenes.

I highly recommend reading Sebastian Aaltonen's blog post, which basically has everything I could ever want from a modern graphics API. Let's hope vendors actually listen.

This week, I made a bunch of progress on XNOEdit, my cross-platform editor/viewer for Sonic '06 objects powered by .NET and WGPU.
Still lots to do, but many objects now correctly visualise, including textures! Next up, bringing in original recompiled shaders so everything looks perfect.
