Recently got my first EV - A290 GTS - it has achievements you can do while driving - a lot are track-focused (max G's in corners etc) but the economy ones are fun to do! I think we only have them in Europe, but really fun car!

That is a ridiculous statement. Sure, if you don’t care about performance or memory efficiency and just need to cater for the lowest common denominator developer then you keep it simple. Chances are that your team can probably easily be replaced by AI though. Tell me, is the following code “bad”?

It's weird how Brigitte Gabriel has managed to take down all of the photos and information about her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Even Google AI is now prohibited from responding to questions about it.

Apparently, THIS is the sort of stupidity the MAGAts are now spreading around. How do these people even remember to breathe? They have literally zero critical thinking skills. For the record, Twitter was created in 2006...

For no reason, length-matched all data and address tracks into and out of the buffers on the ZX Spectrum IF2 accelerator cartridge. I know, the D/A lines are not matched inside the Speccy, but why make it worse? :) SPI flash lines were already matched. It's also smaller #electronics #retrocomputing

Received the first prototypes of my ZX Spectrum accelerator cartridge PCB! Allows much more dynamic action games on the old Speccy as the cart acts as a powerful co-processor - thousands of times faster than the Z80 in the old computer :) Working well! #retrocomputers #maker #electronics #sinclair

Working on my ZXellerator cartridge for the 16k and 48k 8-bit ZX spectrum. Starting on the game engine, here redrawing the background plus 512 sprites at 24x24 pixels with masking and animations. Oh and full bi-colour for 32x48 colour resolution all at full frame rate 😁 #retrocomputing #gamedev
