Testing Pixless Camera palettes and dithering settings. It won't replace the Game Boy Camera for me but it is a fun little thing to carry around in your pocket for a quick snap.
The viewfinder is tiny & only 1 bit, so only for general composition. The fixed focus is not great OOTB but I improved it with some disassembly and 2 small pliers (not for the faint of heart).
But still, it's a lot of fun. I recommend the 4 & 8 color palettes for GB effect or 16 & 32 for flip phone pic style.

Took the bot to its logical conclusion…
Is it cursed? Perhaps. What should I build next though?
Base coat and bit more detail work for the robot.
I'm #colorblind and I use https://xkcd.com/color/rgb/ frequently.
Randall 'xkcd' Monroe did a survey of over 100,000 readers where he showed them random rgb colors and said "what would you call this?" and afterwards he did his best to sort the results into the most popular color names and the colors they refer to.
It's like a box of Crayola for the internet. Finally, my colorblind self can grab a sample of "dark magenta" that doesn't just look like "grape purple" to everyone else.
The data is freely available as a .txt file under CC0, which I've converted into a .css file here: https://git.hatspace.net/nycki/nycki.net/src/branch/main/static/xkcd.css
so now when I want a color on my website I can just write `color: var(--xkcd-off-white)` or so on. it's really convenient :)

One of my old teachers passed away 2 weeks ago and it's made me think a lot about This episode of peopleWatching. I never got around to sending a letter.
Hello Fediveres,
I am a 44-year-old software developer who is fed up with meaningless, purely profit-focused work, vibe AI slop, and a Big Brother antisocial networks, that snoops on data at every turn.
I'm looking for a new challenge, true to the motto: #MeaningfulPurposeFirst. Do you have any ideas? Can you help me #boost the word in this great Fediverse?
#FediHire
You are awesome! Thank you so much for all the boosts and the support. Some more details:
