Right, last #Hackster round-up of the week and then I'm off to enjoy the rare sunshine I can see out of the shed window.
First up is... well, nothing short of incredible. A working Game Boy Color... in a smartwatch form factor.
"That's easy," you cry, "emulate it on a microcontroller." Nope: this uses the original CPU and RAM, it's an honest-to-goodness clone. And has swappable carts. Physical carts. Yeah.
@hailey you made it into El Reg, congrats :)

Do you like books? Do you like stones? Small islands? Stories? You'll love this book!
My book!
You can find it in the Orcadian Bookshop or their online shop!

I love "ugh the robot was trained on my art" posts. I've found so many skilled human artists that way.
@fluffykontbiscuits to exist - agree

I just saw the most amazingly corporate expression of "we did what the bosses wanted us to do, even though the research didn't support that." The actual phrase was:
The research employed a methodology that prioritized stakeholder voice over researcher interpretation.
I wonder if a data scientist slipped that in to make it clear to other folks how this happened. You don't have to write stuff like this if the boss wants to do what the research says is a good idea. You only have to write this if the research says one thing and the boss says another.

There’s been a fucking Cybertruck parked in front of my house for five days. So annoying.
@mattround if it sprouts one of those cctv-daleks then it might be a tribute to HS2

I was invited to Mastodon on Facebook, by a handsome werewolf. Now I pretty much live on Mastodon, and rarely post anything to Facebook.
Encourage people on other platforms to join us. It can be a life-changing experience for them.

498) Villagebots. Inform young men that there's a place they can go when they're in a new town. Somewhere that has everything for them to enjoy and where they can hang out with all the boys. #SmallRobotsRemastered
