Sorry, I meant to say "if ever SLIGHTLY". Damn autocorrect, right? Anyways, we now return to our regularly scheduled Bluesky activity, this time for real!

Just wanted to put that out there, if ever slight. We now return to your regularly scheduled Bluesky activity!
With an all-new MLB season fast approaching, I FULLY expect my beloved Milwaukee Brewers to build on top of last season and FINALLY make it back to the World Series. If they don't...well, guess you'll be seeing me back here this time next year!
Quick update regarding my beloved Milwaukee Brewers: At the end of last season, my beloved Milwaukee Brewers FINALLY won a playoff series and advanced to the NLCS...only to get swept out by the eventual MLB champions L.A. Dodgers. Good for the Brewers for finally winning, bad for...everything else.
Alright, that's all the info I've got for now, so...yeah, I'll see you all around!
But the problem is, I really don't have any references to work with regarding that SPECIFIC manufacturer of gate arrays, so... yeah, if anyone experienced enough (including possibly @furrtek.bsky.social) could help me out in reverse-engineering this IC, that would be great!
@furrtek.bsky.social For starters, I did some research, and apparently, the Konami 055550 is a gate array from Epson, not from Hitachi as was previously assumed.
You may have heard about my efforts to reverse-engineer the Namco C117. Well, I've decided to also reverse-engineer the following Namco custom ICs:
C30 (Fujitsu bipolar GA)
C48 (Fujitsu GA)
C123 (Fujitsu GA)
C133 (Fujitsu GA)
And don't worry, there WILL be plenty more in the works!
Hello again, everyone. Now that I've FINALLY begun the process of leaving X/Twitter for good, I might as well update you all on what I have planned, at least in terms of silicon reverse-engineering.
Well then, I'm off to continue my regularly scheduled programming. But just remember, the way things are going, I FULLY expect the Brewers to lose early in the playoffs AGAIN this season. The only question here is to who...
END of thread
Honestly, I'm still not sure why I didn't bring up THAT point initially.
So yeah, the salary cap STILL holds a decent chunk of the blame for the Brewers' constant playoff woes, but the teams inept management DEFINITELY isn't helping matters either.
In addition, I still stand by the lack of a salary cap putting the Brewers at a MASSIVE disadvantage, but during the off-season, I also noticed how little money the Brewers management had spent on player salaries during the offseason.
For starters, I honestly don't know why I slammed all this out back then. I guess I was just pissed about the Brewers having lost every single playoff series that they had been in since 2019, and ESPECIALLY to the Mets last season.
It's now been half a year since that lovely thread of mine about my beloved Milwaukee Brewers, and I figured I'd do an update, now that it's the start of a new MLB season.

Really, now? My mom says the reason for the Brewers' constant fjrst-round playoff exits is the lack of salary caps, but I agree that poor management really isn't helping matters either.
That's all I have to say about this matter. If you want to unfollow me after reading this, I completely understand. I just needed a place to vent, OK? I now return to my regularly scheduled feed activities!
In short, until the rich capitalists in charge of the MLB, and the MLBPA decide to get off of their high horses, and institute ACTUAL salary caps, my beloved hometown Milwaukee Brewers are NEVER going to win a PLAYOFF series, much less the World Series.
Normally, I would say, "Better luck next season, Milwaukee Brewers", but honestly, after 5 straight seasons of THAT, it's become completely pointless for me to keep saying that.
It's the MLB's complete lack of a goddamn salary cap that's been putting my beloved Milwaukee Brewers at a MASSIVE disadvantage for the past 5 years, and the MLB is completely unwilling to do even THAT, because their precious little players can't stand to lose even a penny!
I mean, the Brewers had a 2 run lead in the top of the 9th, and they completely blew it! But that's not the point here. The point is, this is the 5th consecutive first-round playoff exit for my beloved Milwaukee Brewers, and I think I know why they keep losing.
In fact, I saw one guy on this platform say, and I quote, "I love my adult sons, the New York Mets." Well, let me tell you, I absolutely LOATHE MY adult sons, the Milwaukee Brewers.
I mean, everyone on the Discover feed has been talking about the Mets lately. But the thing is, it was their triumph that ended the Milwaukee Brewers' season.
Hi, everyone. Just thought I'd vent my current frustrations here for a little while.

Hi, everyone. Sorry that I haven't really been active on here in a while. I've just been particularly busy with college these past few months. Luckily, I'm already done with college for the summer, so I plan on being more active on here in the future!
So...I'm officially on Bluesky now! Honestly, I didn't like how Twitter was basically getting run into the ground by Elon Muskrat. I genuinely hope to find a new beginning on this platform!
