Something like a good 5% of my job is giving people tours of what WebPageTest.org (and our internal version for MSFT) can do.

If you're working on the web, it's worth your time trying to decipher what WPT is trying to show you. I recommend starting with a site you own and can edit, using the "simple" mobile config, and focusing on the flimstrip section (initially). Learning where the time goes is invaluable.

Personally I'll be doing live sketching and attempting to animate those sketches in Blender and Blender's Grease Pencil, or maybe other Blender things!

It's kind of incredible – and sad – that PWAs don't restore on your device when you install Chrome fresh and turn on sync. Not even a prompt to offer it. Still.

Starting with version 116, #Firefox will drop support for macOS versions prior to 10.15 as well as Windows 7, 8 and 8.1. This has understandably annoyed a few users so let me explain why we're taking this step: the maintenance burden of supporting several versions of each platform is very significant. I'll show you how much by citing three platform-specific bugs I've worked on over the past two years. 🧵 1/13

It's strange to me that the Tomie movies are so hard to find in good quality. The first one in particular seems like the exact kind of thing that Synapse or Arrow Video would pick up for a remaster.

Anyhow, if you want some high-quality C64 demos, here's everything entered for X'2023: https://csdb.dk/event/?id=3187

You can download and run, or find the videos on YouTube.

To give you an idea how good these demos are, four of the top 10 best C64 demos of all time are from this party; and the top three are all from X'2023.
