And that's a really aesthetically pleasing space.

Show threadDavid RevoyFeb 28
@RafaelDios @posiputt Yes, it's a little (USB) light, like a full moon, and the fox sleeping on the top is the XPPen Mascott, a graphic tablet brand. They sent me this in December as a present for the tablet reviews on the channel. Very cute of them.

@davidrevoy yes
Show threadfarlukarFeb 28
@davidrevoy Yes I can, but *whoa* a CRT TV
Is that so you can play NES Duck Hunt?
Show threadDavid RevoyFeb 28
@farlukar I found it at the local municipal landfill, and my luck because it's working and has one of the first Color+Peritel(scart).
A simple Raspberry Pi is on it. I usually just put in loop the intro of Secret of Mana, or the first Zelda on Nes.
I wish I had a NES gun for duckhunt. I'll have a look how it's possible to get this working with emulation.
Show threadfarlukarMar 1
@davidrevoy It worked by displaying a single white screen for calibration when you pulled the trigger, then a black screen with the targets as white squares. The NES would know which target you hit by counting the time it took to build up the crt lines of the target.
In a nutshell, it's impossible to play on lcd/led screen, and probably too with an emulator. Maybe an old RPi with an RCA RGB-out might work, but I don't know.

I have just a quick question:
Why did you choose to get each screens on individual poles instead of one multi-screen pole?
Show threadDavid RevoyFeb 28
@jenesuispersonne Their acquisition were dispatched in time, the second screen was an incremental addition. ☺️
Show threadTealful EyesFeb 28
@davidrevoy So many adorable little helpers and such a nice and cozy setup! ❤️
Show threadStemyFeb 28
@davidrevoy What kind of assistance are they providing?
Show threadDavid RevoyFeb 28
@Stem They remind me to take breaks and pet them. 😺 Also, they disconnect randomly cables to check if I'm really using a device. Very helpful.
Show threadStemyFeb 28
@davidrevoy Such purr-fect assistants.
Show threadYoh DeadfallFeb 28
@davidrevoy, lovely! However, don't they race over your workplace?
Show threadDavid RevoyFeb 28
@yoh They do, and they often come from the forest with their dirty paws full of mud on rainy days (they have a catflap, they are independent). That's the main reason why I draw digital : if I let a single piece of paper or traditional comic page on this desk; they would ruin it instantly. The one stretching on the sofa, the big "Miolek" also likes to have a 'full speed' moment, and parcours from furniture and jumps everywhere. His secret move is to plunge the head directly on the pillows.

@davidrevoy I love the brick wall.
Show threadDavid RevoyFeb 28
@tristen Thank you! It's a project I made; it's totally decorative and fake, made from a pack of tinted plaster bricks reproduction sold on boxes in DIY shops; and they are glued like ceramic tiles. But with a bit of work to make them looks old and ancient, it does the trick!

@davidrevoy I read that as

can you spot my four feline assassins?

And to be fair - that's probably true as well.

@davidrevoy the back 2 took me a while, but yes!
Show threadcaneToad Feb 28

@davidrevoy Perfect catstation. But one thing is wrong: Those cats aren't assistants.

Even when you're accompanied by one cat, you are just entitled to share their home. Nothing more.

Dogs have owners, cats have personnel

@davidrevoy Nice to have a look at a creator's space. Looks very inviting and inspiring. Cats are a bonus. Makes me feel like I should do something with mine.

@thedaemon Thank you, yes, I was lucky to find it on the local landfill: a Schneider, maybe around 1982, with a SCART port and in color. Still working fine paired to a little raspberry.

Color even! I’ve not seen that model before. So awesome that it works too! Glad someone can enjoy it.

@davidrevoy Nice cats.

@davidrevoy Nice to see the big boss in his usual favorite spot where he can watch you.  But I also love the one all long with his belly in the air. Miolek?

It's so funny, they look like brothers (oops, and sister!) from different litters. Somehow, you ended up with a bunch of tabbies the same way we ended up with a bunch of black cats.
