Been working on this for the past few months, currently doing a refactor but I wanted to share a gif! I don’t have the playdate hardware yet so I’ve been testing on their simulator and having friends test on device. In case you don’t know what that is, it’s a slice of cheese-shaped 1-bit gameboy with a crank: playdate
A Japanese video game walkthrough listing sleeping pills as one of their recommended methods to get high scores in Pokémon Sleep has gone viral on Japanese Twitter recently. The mention of sleeping aid has since been deleted from the site.
Over the past one and a half years, Stack Overflow has lost around 50% of its traffic. This decline is similarly reflected in site usage, with approximately a 50% decrease in the number of questions and answers, as well as the number of votes these posts receive....
ChatGPT is great for simple questions that have been asked and answered a million times previously. I don’t see any downside to these types of questions not being posted to SO…
The character (𝕏) doesn’t actually doesn’t exist in the font, because supporting arbitrary Unicode characters in every font would be absurd. Paste it into the font preview and it renders a black square.
Of course there are fonts that support every character, the characters themselves would be useless if they couldn’t be rendered by anything. I’m only saying that this specific font doesn’t support the character.
I got a Quest 2 a while back and played around with it a bit. There were some entertaining games like “I expect you to die” and the first portion of “Lone Echo”, but mostly they just felt like proof of concept demos and I quickly lost interest....
And then I like Pavlov for its Push mode and custom content like the Escape from Tarkov map. Obviously most of this is PC, but some are available on quest and you can also use Remote Desktop VR to stream to your headset.
I think Pavlov is my favorite, but I’ve also played it for >200 hours 😬 Overall I still prefer the invisible and lenient item points all over your chest that Pavlov has, but Into the Radius’s inventory management is solid once you get used to it
This seem quite counter intuitive and to be bloating the project: i’m trying to install tsdoc linter, but npm adds like other 50 packages alongside with it, is this the expected behaviour? Why is it so?...
Hey, I’m Gamma he/him 👋 I like gamedev and writing fiction! Haven’t written anything shareable in a while since I’ve been working on a few Playdate games this year. I like to talk about most anything. Any book recommendations? Fiction or nonfiction, but preferably audiobook because libby might have it 🤞
Found a few; Stranger in the Woods, Dawn of Everything. Added We Carry Their Bones to a notify list so I hear when it comes in. The last one kinda reminds me of Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keefe, that was a good listen!
Haven’t heard of Librivox, I’ll have to check it out when I run out of stuff at the library 😆 Thanks for all the recs!
I recently started playing GTAV again and sometimes I’ll get in my car and let the radio stations play while I do house stuff. Favorite stations are the 80s one with Kenny Loggins, and West Coast Classics and Rock Radio.
tl;dr: sriracha is selling for ~$40-$70 a bottle due to a shortage of red jalapeño crops, caused by climate change (specifically, extremely hot, dry weather as well as landslide effects from various climate events in the previous years). huy fong says sriracha is resuming limited production but did not specify when this...
Been using it for a few years without paying, never felt the need.
It looks like their paid plan adds cross-platform (including desktop) syncing, folders, some cloud storage for uploading files, a watch app, and some more themes.
I recently listened to a “tech” podcast host drone on for 45 minutes about the “Elon vs Zuck” cage match and this piece perfectly captures the frothing, screaming stream-of-conciousness in my brain at the thought of seeing another discussion about Twitter vs Threads/Insta/Face/burning-sh*itpile. I felt some small amount...
