Also shoutout to DPaint.js, which runs in the Browser: https://github.com/steffest/DPaint-js/ (Though I will say that Aseprite has taken over as my preferred Pixel Art editor.)

Depends on how much of the stock is actually available to purchase. If the owners of the company keep 51% (or 50% + 1 share? Whatever it is), then no.

That's Librewolf: https://librewolf.net/

They do have a "Privacy Preserving Ad Measurement" setting that's enabled by default. Just like Firefox, you can opt out of it, but it is opt-out - so same deal as with Firefox. Ap…

Our Browser options are currently all tied to one of the big AdTech companies: * Safari is owned by Apple * Edge is owned by Microsoft * Chrome is owned by Google * Firefox is part…

That would be great, because the RA1/C&C1 remaster collection has been great, so I hope the other games get the same treatment.

Does anyone have a recommendation for an Open Source 2FA OTP app? That's the only thing I use Authy for, to scan the QR Codes into the App and generate the 2FA tokens, but in a way…

Same, that was also my lesson that RAID is an availability mechanism, not a data safety/backup one. (Of course, Ransomware would also hammer that point home for many later on)

It's like Tim Berners-Lee being referred to as "Web Developer" :) https://imgur.com/kX5oBk6

Big Endian is also called Network Order because some networking protocols use it. And of course, UTF-16 BE is a thing. There is a non-trivial chance that you will have to deal with…

ESPN's 30-for-30 episode "Broke" is a great watch. It does seem though that newer generation athletes are a bit better educated in that matter since they're better connected online…

No, Luau is a new programming language that's based on Lua.

I'm kinda curious if CRT technology advanced to the point where a TV like that would've been possible at a better weight and price tag? I assume that CRT technology development sto…

Third Places really took a hit in the pandemic :( But yes, as someone who re-discovered them last year, I absolutely agree.

SSI? I hope that their first product is called Gold Box.

Good point, the form factor of the regular isn't suited. But I do hope that someone will actually make a laptop shell for it.

With a 4K display and HDR, we can actually do really decent CRT emulation. It seems a bit ridiculous to need 4K/HDR to emulate 40 year old display tech, but you need the resolution…

I wouldn't go _that_ far because the case, mouse, and controller are actually really good quality. But yeah, the bundled games are a bit underwhelming and ultimately it's just a Li…

> grabbing a raspberry pi and sticking it in a laptop chasis OT, but does something like that exist for the Pi 5? I actually loved the Pi 400 Desktop Kit (I hope they make one for …

Yeah, I have one, and the keyboard being non-functional is a real bummer. It's a neat mini console (especially once you add some additional games), but I wish they would make a ver…

I was considering doing something like that for an Amiga, running AmigaOS 3.2. It's a cute idea, especially once you 3D print a shell that looks like the original (shrunken down). …
