> Ms Paint's Jam is a beginner friendly game jam which everyone is welcome to join no matter how good they are at making art. In fact, the worse your game's art is, the more fitting it is for the Ms Paint's jam!

Do I know anyone who can help me to make a custom text-to-speech voice? There are proprietary services that allow you to do this, but they rely on machine learning APIs that are quite expensive to run, and I wouldn't independently own the result. I would maybe like to be able to license a simulated version of my own voice for other trans artists and allies to use for free, to make their work more accessible.

Is there a word for things like webrings, hastags, etc; they're not hacks, but they're enhancements to existing systems made by regular users?

made a nice font for pico-8. each character is 5x7 pixels but there's no spacing between letters or lines when printing strings so most are actually 4x6

I'm making a game for the ZX Spectrum Next using C. This is my ongoing devlog on the process.
In this episode I waffle on about the general aim of what I'm trying to do and some of the code I have written so far.
what's with tech people and pseudo-millitary jargon like *ops and comms?
Bitsy audio feature is looking niiiiice

apparently my elderly neighbor has been maintaining a personal website about the history of UK photography and it is an incredible piece of work.
apparently he still uses some piece of adobe software from the 90s. there is so much care and effort here, and its such a pristine image of the early web being still updated 😭
