I think about (snd struggle with) this a lot, so it’ll be nice to get some input. Should I use another Mastodon account for omg.lol updates and other “official” things, and keep my personal (Pokémon, ranting, etc.) stuff separate?

Hi there! This is #nakeddiefriday again!

Today I'd like to present you one of frequent sources of pain for C64 owners, the infamous PLA. This is MOS 7700R2. They failed way too often, and considering this is custom silicon, the only option was to get another one of the same.

Many thanks to @root42 for providing this sample!

A die overview shot. Top to bottom, the products array, the sums array, and the big, big output driver transistors.
The same but with metal removed. This exposes nicely coloured diffusion and poly features.

Just watched @argyleink s talk at Cascadia JS about 25 new and rad features of CSS (while preparing lunch for today). Kinda knew many of them, but great to get a quick refresher on what's possible these days with just CSS/HTML. Absolutely rad demos of these features too!

also, TIL: `field-sizing: content` for select elements! hooray!

Previously we wrote about Reciprocate, a library for adding signal-based reactivity to server-rendered #HTML #WebComponents.

Pretty cool problems to have solved, but what if you wanted more dynamic client-side smarts and the ability to write declarative templates with a trusty html`` function?

Tada! 🎉 Thanks to Joe Pea @trusktr that #WebDev problem has also been solved. Wire up these two solutions together, and you'll be authoring new UI components using familiar DX. 🙌

Kind of frustrating that serval gaming outlets are calling the Oct 28 release of Death by Scrolling a "Windows PC" release while totally ignoring (forgetting) it also includes the native Mac and Linux. We worked hard to fully support all three platforms.

The absolute state of conservative Christianity in America

A meme using the "distracted boyfriend" format. The caption reads “American evangelicals:”. In the image, the boyfriend, representing American evangelicals, is turning away from Jesus (shown with a halo and traditional robe) and looking admiringly at Adolf Hitler, who is walking in the opposite direction. The meme satirically suggests hypocrisy or moral contradiction within certain segments of American evangelicalism.
