The new project is nearly ready, but it doesn’t scale down nicely on the 1st gen iPhone SE. 😢
That’s a no-go. That device is barely ten years old! (Which is, by chance, the very thing sane people would say to dismiss the issue… 😅)

Amiga mouse pointers are weird. Did you know that you can set the hot spot way outside of the actual cursor?

Heh, I totally forgot that ZIP files can have banners. Luckily my console is using Amiga Topaz already, so I had the perfect little retro surprise there.

Working on an archive of all (*) Amiga mouse pointers. Back in the day, hand cursors were really popular!
(*all = 70k disks so far, 27k custom preferences, 3k distinct pointer shapes and colors)

Seeing the actual, physical Amiga prototype board at #Amiga40 sure was nice! If you squint hard, you can make out shadows of the Boing demo running in the wirings… 🧐

I really miss HTTP referers… While I can understand the security and privacy reasons why the major browsers killed them off, I would really like to know, for example, where the recent spike of interest in heckmeck.de/demoscene/wo... came from in the US.
