Tool-Assisted Speedrun in 47 hours, 41 minutes, and 12 seconds (World Record), sped up just a bit for your convenience. I wrote a script [1] that uses ffmpeg to convert arbitrary v…

Here's a personal website I built to catalog the various lifeforms I've encountered on my adventures. It's kind of like a Pokédex, but for real life. - Lifeforms are categorized by…

I've been dealing with the same issue for the last week or so, but just found a solution! Install the GitHub CLI ("brew install gh" or similar), authenticate with your GitHub crede…

I'm a big fan of Hunter's work! His videos definitely informed this one. I would love to do a collab given the chance.

Could this be a new hit game genre? :-) I'm not sure it comes across in the video, but it's actually surprisingly fun. I say "1ish fps", but it actually runs at a variable framerat…

Thanks! Yeah, I was surprised how much utility I could get out of it without directly modifying the game or console themselves. The first Animal Crossing has this great, simple cha…

Show HN: Tool-Assisted Speedrunning the Boring Parts of Animal Crossing (GCN)
