    I feel you about the frontends being buggy. Right now I've settled with Droid-ify[1] for doing my F-Droid browsing. [1] https://droidify.app/

    Having a bit of a cultural shock at how English doesn't have a separate name for the "cruder" graffiti (such as tags) vs the more socially accepted street art. The former is typica…

    There was actually an unauthorized third-party CD-ROM drive for it, the Bung Doctor V64[1]. It didn't actually expand the available ROM space beyond what was possible with cartidge…

    Sadly, not anymore - TecToy lost the Sega license a few years ago. In the later years, they were simply rebranding AtGames plug-and-plays with the Atari and Sega licenses; and more…

    From the Github README: animalese.js is a JavaScript library that synthesizes an approximation of the villager speech sounds from Animal Crossing.

    Japanese and Spanish happen to have very similar pronounciation. It's a neat detail in the Animal Crossing games that seems to have gotten mostly lost in translation for the Englis…

    > Rebooting NetBSD reboots the whole console, and not just the NetBSD ‘app’, so you’ll find yourself back at the Wii Menu after any kernel patch or system upgrade. This can be miti…

    I wonder if the Android port of Advance 3 came in hand here. That version was ported to Java — and being unobfuscated, would've been a great reference point.

    Anna's Archive encourages (and monetizes!!) the use of their shadow library for LLM training. They have a page dedicated to it on their site. You pay them, and they give you high d…

    Should mention love.js isn't officially supported, and isn't 100% compatible with the LÖVE API. It will work just fine for a lot of games out of the box, though

    If you press tab, then Ctrl+A then backspace, you can delete the help icon. Very cute website, I really like how every glyph looks, some more abstract than others.

    All versions of RPG Maker frequently go on sale on Steam, the older ones you can get for pennies. XP, VX and VX Ace support Ruby as a scripting language, meanwhile MV and MZ suppor…

    SmileBASIC is another coding environment on Switch. The DSi and 3DS versions were quite popular, I'm surprised the Switch version didn't catch on as much as they did

    Face tracking has existed for years now. I frankly don't see what's different between what you described and FaceRig.

    That was my first thought too. If I understood correctly, the developer claims that the API requires a signed binary in this issue: https://github.com/es3n1n/no-defender/issues/1

    I like the concept a lot. Was hoping there would be a crowdsourced element to it — a way to suggest our own synomys rather than just relying on the LLM. Oh, and heads up, right now…

    It's trivial to bypass that check using a Steam "emulator"

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons was an unfortunate exception to this rule. Seeing them drip-feed features already present in the previous games doesn't bode well for the future of th…
