🌈 TIL: Color #tv had to solve one stubborn problem.

Millions of black-and-white sets were already in American homes, so #RCA had to encode #color signals that rode invisibly inside existing broadcasts and only color receivers could decode. That backward-compatible #breakthrough, coming after John Logie Baird’s fragile 1928 mechanical system, finally made color TV possible.

От #FFF к OKLCH: как эволюция цветовых моделей меняет веб-разработку

Помните времена, когда цвета в CSS выбирались почти наугад? Белый фон — #FFF , чёрный текст — #000 , акцент — какой-нибудь #3498db , который просто нормально смотрится? Для раннего веба этого хватало. Интерфейсы были проще, экраны — одинаковее, а требования к доступности, темам и визуальной консистентности ещё не давили на разработку так сильно, как сейчас. Но современная веб-разработка давно ушла от логики «подобрали цвет и забыли». Сегодня интерфейс должен одинаково уверенно жить в светлой и тёмной теме, не ломаться на широком цветовой охвате дисплеев, держать читаемый контраст в веб-дизайне и при этом оставаться удобным для поддержки. Именно поэтому эволюция цветовых моделей стала важной инженерной темой. Сейчас цвета в CSS — это целый набор подходов, через которые проект решает задачи доступности, масштабируемости и удобства разработки. И на этом фоне OKLCH всё чаще рассматривают как следующий логичный шаг: модель, которая лучше соответствует человеческому восприятию и помогает строить более стабильные палитры.

WATERLOO GAMING LOUNGE BRINGS HIGH-POWERED PLAY TO UPTOWN

On the second floor of 1 King St. N., lit by multicoloured RGB strips, over a dozen high-end gaming PCs whir to life, each loaded with over 70 games. The Waterloo Gaming Lounge has become a hub for community and competition since it opened in October 2025. Fitting right into the middle of uptown Waterloo’s nightlife, the space provides a unique experience for folks looking for something to do during a night out or space for teams to practice their skills together.  

Tony Shiff, owner of the space, is a veteran of the video game development industry but does not consider himself a core PC gamer. His inspiration to open the Waterloo Gaming Lounge instead comes from observing current social gaming habits in his own home.  

“My son is [a gamer], and the idea started because I saw him in the basement a lot of the time gaming with a whole group of friends. And I was like, why don’t you ever get together? He said, ‘I have my PC and they have their PC, where are we going to meet each other?’” Shiff said.  

Modern PC gaming at a high level requires expensive and bulky hardware. If someone is even able to afford a powerful rig, disassembling their whole setup and transporting it to a friend’s home is far from convenient. The Waterloo Gaming Lounge instead charges an hourly rate to access their top-of-the-line machines and an inviting, if sometimes chaotic, gaming environment. 

“PC gaming is often a solitary experience, and I wanted to do something that made it more social,” Shiff said. 

Some of the most popular games the Waterloo Gaming Lounge offers are Valorant, a first-person hero shooter; League of Legends, a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game; and Counterstrike 2, a traditional first-person shooter. While these titles take up a lot of the playtime for gamers, Shiff was particularly encouraged by the impact offering less popular games has had on customers.  

“There is a whole community of people who play Counterstrike 1.6, a 25-year-old game. They were going to Hamilton before we opened because that was the closest place,” Shiff said. 

The Counterstrike 1.6 community at the Waterloo Gaming Lounge highlights the unique experience the space provides. One team of five gamers sets up in one room, another in the room next door.  

No headsets, just two teams calling out strategies and laughing together. They turn to pat each other on the back after a big win and run into the next room to playfully tease their opponents after a defeat.  

“They’re weekly regulars. It’s like a modern bowling league,” Shiff said. 

Directly across from the Counterstrike 1.6 crew sits another group of players grinding through ranked matches of League of Legends, a game that rewards consistent communication between players. Although League of Legends does not require the latest high-end graphic cards or other equipment to run, groups make the effort to get together to play the game in person.  

For Ian Zhang, a University of Waterloo student ranked platinum in League of Legends, Shiff’s goal of building a social gaming space resonates.   

“It’s more fun to play with other people physically together. As a kid, you’re on the couch playing with your friends on a console, and as you get older, it’s hard to do that. So, it’s just a nice place to get together with friends,” Zhang said.  

Waterloo Gaming Lounge is also hosting a series of tournaments for their most popular games. Previous tournaments have been held in Valorant, League of Legends and Counterstrike 2. All have been free to play and come with a gift card prize for the winners. While these events were well attended, Shiff was particularly happy to see the success of bringing together smaller gaming communities.  

“One of the most interesting tournaments for me was DOTA 2, which is not a big community in Canada…as it is in Europe and Asia,” Shiff said.  

Making gaming accessible and communal for everyone has become a guiding principle of the Waterloo Gaming Lounge. Players can log in to their own accounts for each game to rank up and maintain use of items or characters they may have. The lounge also provides a limited number of house accounts for new players to use, depending on the game. Gamers of all skill levels and group sizes are welcome.

OKLCH in CSS: why we moved from RGB and HSL

Spent my Easter eating a delicious Danish Kringle with Ali and then made this doodle.

I am excited, its forbidden in a few ways. One of which is the tube sizes, which are fine tuned for brightness. That big bright white 25mm tube is thin lead glass- and it would take awhile to get it as hot as the 10 mm #blacklight tube, which will be made brighter by being the narrowest, most focused part of the arc.

On a bombarder, that would suck the narrow blacklight in. It is possibly the best combination to be bombarded in terms of glass heat sensitivity- buut I have an oven, so its baking out over night so I can make this the first try guaranteed :).

Hooray for Easter! After Minneapolis, I needed a day to sleep, and I still should send some emails, but I wanted to relax, and I feel recharged, -but there is about to be so much commercial bending.

Yaaay work!

Is it possible to fit 16x16 font glyphs into a TV head?

As soon as I saw that these existed I knew it was something I had to try with my extension of GNU Unifont (called UnifontEX), which even has emoji. Unifont and UnifontEX are both 8x16 for anything that can reasonably fit, and 16x16 for anything that can't. I know that people have gone to 15x18 or 15x20, but some glyphs do truly require the full 16x16 cell size, so 16x18 or 16x18 would have to be the case. I'm of course wanting Unicode support (including characters above Plane 0, of which there are many in the font), so that means I'd likely need a Raspberry Pi. I'm also curious which of the formats at http://stgiga.github.io/UnifontEX/ would be best. There are a lot to choose from, including ones that were never offered by upstream Unifont.

I for the past while and especially recently had wanted to wear UnifontEX glyph displays either on my shirt or then a hat, so I could speak my more passionate topics without having to worry about voice level causing me problems.

I also had for the past week felt like I wanted to, if I gave a tech talk or ever appeared in a video, to never show my face and instead hide in a fursuit head, but if I trick one of these out with cat ears, then that would do. The Raspberry Pi could theoretically let me use it as a MIDI player, obviously at safe volumes.

Like, this TV head is something I'd actually want to do, and I'd sorta been thinking about adjacent topics recently. As an Earthbound reference, I would name mine "Lumine", after Lumine Hall from Earthbound. I'd go for a green shell for them and I'd predominantly use green or RGB colors for the text.

Interesting idea: put fursuit fur (or scales if you are a scalie) onto a TV head.

Fursuit head or TV head?
"Why not both?"

Obviously this will all be several years in the future due to my current state of nonemployment. Nonetheless I'm still curious. Also, if any of these ideas are inspirational, I give full permission to use them. Same for the font. I really don't care too much about what people do with my content.

In other news: UnifontEX got used in the game Gem Frenzy (https://theyippies.itch.io/gem-frenzy), and I got credited in the Itch.io game description.

Also my birthday is at the end of the month. #unicode #furry #fursuithead #tvhead #unifontex #rgbled #rgbleds #rgb #font #pixelfonts #pixelfont #unifont #raspberypi #raspberrypipico #luminehall #earthbound #16x16px #indiegame #birthdaysoon #tech #technology #techtalk #techtalks #leddisplay #displays #leddisplays #shirtdisplay #hatdisplay #scalie #scales #furry #indiedevs #catears #midi
