I got a pixel art app that's been helping waste time in work recently.  It's called dotpict.  I think it would only interest someone with the very specific combination of interests in retro games and Japanese style art.

I'm no expert but I made these while bored. It's really satisfying to start out with just dots and with a few techniques end up with something that hopefully doesn't look too bad. I remember the days when video games might actually look something like this.

Dude, I remember games looking far worse... CGA, with its awesome 4 pink colors was how I started playing Tetris and battle chess

As awesome as CGA was, Apple ][ was even more awesome. Bizarre hardware implementation.

Of course. There are many firms here that do the same as I do and rip the skin of their customers for doing a very lousy job. The most of them ask for you to pay about a $100 for installing a system with no drivers and no AV software while I install and set up everything for $15 and never had any complaints about the quality of my work. There are even some idiots from those firms who install Windows by running setup.exe while Windows is running! (facepalm) From that point the endless problems for the customer begin because the drivers in C:\Windows and C:\Windows.old start fighting each other which often causes system freeze or even a BSOD.

Idk what hots and cot are but we do have a deal. Surely living in your country would be a lot better than living in mine where CEZ rips us with several human skins every month for electricity bills.

I made a song that's under 4 and a half minutes long recently:



That's really short for me

And here's a longer one:



And here's one in-between:

Nice work! I think I like the third one best.

3 hots and a cot = 3 meals per day and a cot to sleep on.
