#Autism Facts:
1. The #spectrum is non-linear, thus functioning labels are obsolete.
2. Being #autistic does not determine one’s #intelligence
3. Autism is not more prevalent in boys in girls, that was a result of bias in past diagnostic criteria.

WILLOW RIVER COMMUNITY LAND TRUST

On Apr. 17, 2026, eight downtown Kitchener non-profits came together in solidarity to incorporate the Willow River Community Land Trust (WRCLT). These are: the Willow River Centre, Community Justice Initiatives (CJI), Social Development Centre (SDC), Civic Hub Waterloo Region, SHORE Centre, Inter Arts Matrix, MT Space, Spectrum and Kind Minds Family Wellness.

The other funny thing about #Spectrum email, where by "funny" I mean actually not funny, is that they clearly have multiple IMAP servers running in a load balancer, sometimes synchronization among the servers falls behind, and they don't have the load balancer configured to be sticky by IP address like they really should, so things frequently get into a state where messages I've previously deleted or filed spontaneously reappear in my uncle's inbox. This is 🤡ishly dumb.

#TechIsShitDispatch
Yesterday, #Spectrum decided to have another hours-long email outage on a Saturday afternoon.
It started at around 1:29pm US Eastern time and lasted until around 11:13pm, nearly ten hours.
I know about the exact timing because of the script I run every minute against my uncle's email account to clean spam and scams (Spectrum's spam filter sucks).
My uncle pays nearly $300 per month for cable and internet. For that much you'd think they'd be able to keep his email up.

The #LibDems love to position themselves as "centrist" & "moderate" - ignoring the fact that the #centre isn't a fixed point, but moves, & has been moving, further & further to the #right, with the rest of the #political #spectrum, for a very long time now. It may be reasonable to talk about counteracting the #threat from #ReformUK; but to lump them & @thegreenparty together is (a) insulting the #Greens; & (b) not very sensible #politics, given the LDs may need to go

Blaze bringt zwei Emulationshandhelds im #C64-Brotkasten- und #Spectrum-Design. Nur ist da, wo die Tastatur sein müsste, einfach nichts, und warum diese Geräte, die 4:3-Systeme emulieren, einen 16:9-Bildschirm haben sollten, erklärt sich auch nicht. Mal wieder eine least-effort-Implementierung, um die Nostalgie von dummen Leuten zu monetarisieren. :-( https://www.hypermegatech.com/home-computer-handhelds/

Got myself a new #ArcadeR joystick when I ordered my #C64Ultimate... and while the #C64 is delayed for a few months for some reason, the joystick finally arrived.

No worries... it works great on my #Spectrum Next! Feels very arcade-y, with a loose stick and clicky buttons. Need to do the mod to make auto-fire work on the Next though, Light Force is killing me!

(By the way - how amazing does Light Force look even now? Some very thoughtful pixel work there)

Nightshade

Nightshade es un action-adventure isométrico: te mueves por un mundo dibujado en perspectiva tridimensional, con desplazamiento suave en pantalla gracias al motor Filmation II (una evolución técnica de lo que ya vimos en Knight Lore y Alien 8).

La historia te sitúa en el pueblo de Nightshade, envuelto en oscuridad y plagado por fuerzas malignas. Encarnas a un caballero que debe dar caza a cuatro demonios que han sumido al lugar en una pestilencia sobrenatural. Cada demonio no puede ser derrotado con cualquier cosa: necesitas encontrar el objeto especial que lo hace vulnerable (como un martillo, una Biblia, un crucifijo o un reloj de arena) y usarlo en el enfrentamiento correcto.
Mientras tanto, por el mapa rondan enemigos menores como vampiros, esqueletos y monstruos varios, que te atacan y para los que puedes recolectar anticuerpos en casas, que lanzas para defenderte.

La clave en Nightshade es explorar el pueblo. No hay niveles secuenciales como en otros arcades, sino un gran mapa continuo que recorres buscando objetos, diablos y atajos. Entrar en casas y edificios hace que las paredes desaparezcan para poder ver y recoger cosas, un truco visual del motor Filmation II para sortear las limitaciones de color y memoria de las máquinas de entonces.

Eso le da al juego una mezcla peculiar de acción, exploración y ligero uso de estrategia: no solo golpeas enemigos, también planificas qué armas usar contra quién y cómo evitar que los bichos pequeños te acorralen.

Cuando salió, la prensa lo recibió bastante bien por su gráfica técnica avanzada y ambiente: los gráficos detallados y la capacidad de desplazamiento suave se destacaron frente a muchos títulos de 8 bits. Sin embargo, no faltaron voces críticas que señalaban que, tras la impresionante fachada visual, Nightshade podía sentirse repetitivo y un poco vacío en su diseño ya que te pasabas mucho tiempo buscando cosas sin un ritmo de juego tan fuerte como en otros títulos de acción pura.

Hoy muchos lo ven como un título interesante y representativo de su época: no el mejor juego de Ultimate, pero sí un experimento ambicioso con su propio encanto isométrico y estética de pueblo oscuro lleno de criaturas.

Nightshade es un peldaño notable en la evolución de los juegos isométricos en 8 bits. Su uso del motor Filmation II influyó en otros lanzamientos de Ultimate como Gunfright, que reutilizó esa tecnología poco después.
Además, demostró que incluso máquinas modestas como el Spectrum podían ofrecer mundos relativamente grandes e interactivos con ambición narrativa básica, algo que abrió la puerta a exploraciones más profundas de diseño dentro de ese género en sistemas domésticos.

Nightshade es un clásico de culto: un juego isométrico con bastante libertad, enemigos, objetos únicos para cada jefe y una atmósfera de pueblo maldito. Técnicamente llamativo para su tiempo, narrativamente modesto, pero con ideas que funcionaban bien en el contexto de los 8 bits.

#ADHD / #AuDHD / #Spectrum peeps,

If "body doubling*" is too much hassle for you, I find listening to a podcast while doing my morning "routine" (i.e., dang, I need to shower and dress, I hate this 😂) helps a ton.

*this refers to watching videos of someone doing a similar task as you to get past executive dysfunction/insufficient activation energy

Amazon acquires satellite operator Globalstar for $11.57 billion, gaining L-band spectrum and infrastructure that powers iPhone Emergency SOS. Deal expected to close in 2027, folding assets into Amazon's Leo constellation. Even combined, Amazon's network remains roughly 1/40th the size of Starlink at planned mid-2026 launch. #satellite #spectrum #spacetech

It appears the partial #Spectrum email outage lasted, at least for me, for about seven hours. Superb, no notes.

#TechIsShitDispatch
Why do we put up with this bullshit day after, week after week, month after month, year after year?
Why are tech companies so shit at providing reliable services that people want?
I've worked in this industry my whole career, and I am ashamed that things have just gotten worse and worse and worse.
(This isn't a blip, Spectrum's email—not just webmail, but also IMAP—has been broken for several hours now.)
