My Christmas break is finally over, but it's been pretty productive. Zero Wing Neo Geo port is nearly complete! Just a few bugs and CD support to wrap-up then we're done!. Here's a level show reel. youtu.be/bExxCZtayNk

So I have to pay for building my code on my own machines using @github soon? resources.github.com/actions… Yeah, I might consider my options at this point. Yes, it's not a huge sum, but it's a matter of principle.

New article! What do you do when profiling your code shows the slowdown isn't in your code, but deep in the kernel? Why, you grab the kernel source and go spelunking. How a routine profiling session turned into a Linux kernel patch: rovarma.com/articles/from-pr…

I ran into this yesterday: github.com/SquareMan/xenosag… Xenosaga is a PS2 JRPG that shipped with an ELF containing symbols, which sparked my curiosity.
