I just want to put this out into the universe.

If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.
This is a very impressive PS1 game by @eliasdaler.bsky.social running on SuperStation.

does anyone recognize which song(s) are used in the 14:03 - 15:20 section of this final fantasy medley? this midi was released in 1997 so it'd have to be final fantasy vii and earlier.

this recording is bad because the song needs to be played in roland gs mode

Woh ... the documentary was phenomenal, wondering how a full motion picture treatment will play out. Either way, more will learn about Mats' beautiful (and heartbreaking) story. ❤️

someone let that wapo guy know; i can't tell him because he follows bad actors :D
"bad actor follower blocklists are a bad idea because reporters may be following those accounts"

bluesky has lists, feeds, an open protocol and a lot of active third party development

no one needs to follow those accounts to report on them

stop undermining safety features

most of the issues with low quality replies is likely due to the discover feed

you could ladd friction to replying to posts viewed from the discover feed

or you could make the user experience worse for everyone

tough choice, i know
