Adding anaglyph 3D to BBC Micro Elite is proving quite the challenge; the game code is so optimised that each stage needs a new approach. But I now have 3D suns to add to the 3D ships, planets and stardust. They flicker a bit in-game, but the iconic Acornsoft box screenshot looks great!
Up next on the to-do list:
* Apply 3D to the Star Wars scroll-text in the in-game demo
* Add a bit of 3D to the scanner
* Try to improve planets, suns and explosion clouds to make the game more playable in 3D
It's turning out to be a bigger project than I anticipated... as per usual, I guess! ๐

I love it so much!
Firefox has made it SO EASY to switch to Firefox from Chrome, that you dont even lose your OPEN TABS.
Have you got 34 open tabs lol? And you lost uBlock ad-blocker today? (You did, you lost your ad blocker, because Google)
You dont even lose open Tabs! (And you get to install uBlock)
Fancy that.

Most people, when they think of Nazism, imagine a rigid dictatorship, in which Hitler gave strict orders to carry out a carefully engineered program of genocide.
They don't realize the degree to which Nazi functionaries improvised in an effort to curry favor w the Fuhrer by anticipating what they thought he might like to see.
IOW, they ramped up the violence b/c they believed they would be rewarded for it.
This is how "MASS DEPORTATION NOW" spirals out of control.
Hitler was not a "details" guy. He wasn't even a particularly hard worker.
What he was, though, was a "broad sketches" guy and a manic monologue guy.
Somebody who made HUGE and wildly unconventional pronouncements that excited curiosity and awe among a certain set of Germans, who then waited anxiously to see whether anyone might step forward to execute and put into concrete form the deviant ideas that peppered his speeches.
When people say "don't take Trump literally" or "he doesn't really mean what he says," that's completely beside the point.
It's what his speech unleashes in others.
It's the license he gives others to turn the crank, to up the ante, and to break conventions.
Trumpism is a permission structure.
It's an uncorking of violent animosities which have existed for a long time in our country.
Major tech companies are producing far more carbon emissions than they suggest in their sustainability reports.
Theyโre lobbying hard to rewrite the rules on how emissions are calculated to show net zero on paper, but not in practice.

Iโm supremely annoyed that nearly all services now pin identity and authentication on an E-mail or Cell phone.
This does NOT stop illegitimate users. New E-mail and burner phones are easy to get.
It DOES however make legit users more vulnerable. Taking over someoneโs Email account or phone number, even for a short period, may give an attacker easy access to take over your identity and accounts, sometimes in irreversible ways.
Authentication should be a Username, Password and TOTP. If you want to offer less secure/โpasswordless/convenienceโ options like email, phone, whatever, go right ahead. I can choose to NOT use those.
Don't mind me! Just hanging out overhead, waiting for someone cute to pounce!
Just walk right under here. I'm sure nothing will happen. >:3
