I made a photo of a bunch of daffodils a few days ago, and made a 192 x 64 pixel drawing today, which I turned into an infinite panning frame of 64 x 64 pixels for my Pixoo64 Cloud LED display. I also entered it in the Bloom2025 competition of the Divoom community.

Here’s the reference.

The @pixeldailies.bsky.social theme was #castle #PixelDailies #Pixoo64

This was constructed for the #64x64 pixels #Pixoo64 and #PixelDailies theme #RobotController @pixeldailies.bsky.social

I made a pixel drawing of a #tiger refining it using this CC reference from Flickr. Thusly I didn’t mechanically copy the reference, and made my own version for @pixeldaily.bsky.social theme for 13 March 2025.

So, how should I deal with Tumblr, as it has not yet joined the Fediverse? Should I assume it joining soon, and use @ mentions to Fediverse users, or should I make an exception and link with the user’s permalink to their user profile on their prime Fediverse server?

Any help is appreciated.

The theme of Pixel Dailies for 12 March 2025 was #frame #64x64 #PixelDailies #Pixoo64

The theme of Pixel Dailies for 10 March 2025 was #OversizedClothing #64x64 #PixelDailies

At least the robot 🤖 got the number right, otherwise putting candles on my humongous BD cake has become ridiculous, and a real chore. 🎂

I really liked this video by Asianometry about heat in IC’s, and how it complicates development of chips, because how heat behaves at the quantum level is still unknown. This is one of the reasons developing nanometer scale microprocessors is so expensive and time-consuming.

For when I’m too busy making pixel art…

Today I ran a half marathon race to determine my marathon goal five weeks from now. With 2h06m16s I could go for a 4h15m marathon, yet 4h30m seems a safer bet, especially because I was heavily injured for four month, in which I could hardly train, or only very slowly.

Checking out specific details on the Marathon Rotterdam website, since it’s only five weeks and one day before I’ll be running my fifth marathon. No, the details aren’t there yet, so I’ll have to be patient. Probably will receive an email about those anyway.

Yesterday I failed at the day before’s prompt #CharacterGenerator of the Pixel Dailies daily challenge. The idea was a normally clad person stepping into the booth and coming out as another person wearing spectacular clothes. Alas, it will never be completed 😕

I made an isometric cube rotate in 72 steps. After importing it into the Divoom app’s pixel editor, I found a limit for the number of frames in an animation (60 for 64x64 pixels). So I had to be creative with 36 frames. After reuploading to the Divoom app, I tweaked it to get it even more perfect.

When I notice my peripheral vision, besides blurring, I can see distortion in the perspective. I tried to illustrate that effect in a pixel animation. Not sure it’s because of my bad vision, or if it’s more general for all seeing humans. It could also be my imagination playing tricks on me.

Can’t wrap my head around Tapestry by @iconfactory I want to keep my sanity by interacting less with social media. This app wants me to do the opposite. Even though the app seems to shield me from the worst, the people I’m interacting with aren’t, and so the worst gets to me by proxy. So why?

I made this for yesterday’s prompt of Pixel Dailies: #scale. It’s based on my pixel font at original and 300 percent scale. Rotating a plane is some kind of scaling as well. Note that I’m in favor of human made pixel art, as opposed to a purely (and copyright-wise questionable) AI-based version.

I’m trying to make putting text onto my Pixoo64 much easier with (possibly) a pixel font. The matrix is 4 pixels wide and 6 pixels high, so there’s room for 10 lines of 16 characters (64 x 60 pixels in total) on the 64x64 pixels screen. I can has a scroll like in Star Wars 😂

When the clock strikes twelve…
