Feels like I am approaching the end of the current secret Amiga project. Maybe it can be revealed soon, but here is a little teaser.

I will not be taking questions.

Boost for the morning crowd. A new Lumo Amiga #DevLog from me is up on the Thalamus Patreon!

Double, double toil and trouble; fire burn and cauldron bubble. Yes, the onslaught of terrible puns and tenuous references can only mean one thing: it's time for another installment of nivrig's development blog. This month? Bubbles!

Is there an EU based DNS provider that has an API to let you update records?

There are a few VIC20 FInal Expansion 3s on eBay UK. You don't see those very often.

My #Amiga games are on a frankly ridiculous discount for the next couple of days.

Easing back in to #Lumo #amiga by mapping Zone 7.

I draw it out first so I can see where the rooms go in the grid system, because it’s an arse to shuffle them around once they’re built.

I think I’ll make the MAP room (bottom right) a 1x1 and shuffle the rows to its left up, because skipping grid squares or moving to a new Z is also an arse, but less so.

Also shown, the first try at the map, complete with cuts and tape 😁

#linux GUI git client anyone? Coming from SourceTree on macOS. It’s probably not something I’ll be using a lot so a FOSS one would be good.

Update: Many suggestions, thanks! SourceGit is very like SourceTree, and SublimeMerge also looks good (Sublime being my text editor of choice too). lazygit for terminal use, or just the plain old git command line are options.

I'm selling some of my retro machines that I never get around to using. The Atari STe and 800XL are up now. Both in great condition with everything you need to get started.
