Okay maybe this is platforming heresy but when I was little I hated the “coyote time” in platforming games. Still do. It’s there in order to make the game more welcoming and forgiving atd I applaud that sentiment but what happened was:...
On Fedi, Reverse wrote: On the 6th of May, the Swedish Parliament decided to accept a new law that is supposed to “strengthen competition”, via harder punishments on public companies that compete “unhealthily” with private companies This...
Here’s a comparison between the three pixel/sprite/tile making apps I could find on F-Droid. I know there’s stuff in that vein on Varvara, but I haven’t figured out a good way to run Varvara apps on Android yet, especially in a way...
So there’s a hole in time with pretty clearr rules, right? You can only go back to a specific date and time. A specific September day at 11:58 AM, 1958. From a dark late night in 2011. That’s the portal. No freely controllable...
Yay I managed to re-beat Tetris Plus, the puzzle mode on the GB version! I beat this game when I first got it as a teen on the original Game Boy Pocket but I can’t have been playing on Very Hard (whicth is what I beat it on now) because...
One of the cafés I really like recently started using those li’l “beepers”. Customers get one when ordering their food and when they start beeping you’re supposed to bring it to the disk and pick up your plate yourself. So far so good....
There’s one thing I wish you all could understand. The way Apple, Alphabet, Meta and Amazon owns the world? It doesn’t have to be that way. It used to not be that way. Their ascendancy should’ve been illegal. I was on the FOSS bandwagon...
Now that I have video game mania, books are piling up at an even faster rate than normal. Therefore it’s time for some “Compulsive Vowing”: It’s gonna be five-out-one-in until I have read twelve physical books. I.e. I can only get two...
I’ve longed for so many years for the new Swedish e-id system to finally bring liberation from BankID but it’s going from bad to worse. It shares the incredible drawback of requiring a Google or Apple smartphone, but adds a hard...
A new proposal from the Swedish government is to stop welfare and other social help to those convicted of severe felonies. I’m not onboard with that idea. We’re not supposed to have the death penalty in Sweden and I don’t like the “once...
Being able to quickly write replies to email, real actual email, was very valuable. That was the core of what drew me to Delta Chat. There are plenty of proprietary email apps set up around that feature but in the free world, not so...
It’s a pet peeve of mine when people still call it Twitter (or variants like Xitter). The exact phrasing “Twitter (I refuse to call it X)” isn’t even a callout to a specific person since I’ve seen that exact text string multiple times by...
M säger ja till att släppa in SD i regeringen om Tidöpartierna vinner valet i höst. Okej, det stinker och jag är mot det så kan oppositionen samla sig please?! Ja, jag vet att det är väldigt otäcka typer i dom andra tre...
Bristande finansiering tvingar Uppsala universitet att skära ned på lärarledd undervisning och laborationstimmar. Enligt rektorn har de statliga anslagen till universitetet släpat efter i flera decennier, samtidigt som lokalhyrorna...
Probably the worst part of original GTD is having a list of calls. That just doesn’t parallelize nor serialize well since nowadays each call is a multi-hour affair if it’s a hold/wait system, or if it’s a “we’ll call you back sometime...
