This is so cool, there's nothing I love to read about more than someone spending insane amounts of time hacking some old piece of hardware that even when done will be completely useless in the modern era, for no other reason than &quot

Same here. I was a relentless script kiddy who flunked out of grade 10 because of undiagnosed ASD, but having “tech skills” in the early 90s meant I had no problem finding random IT jobs and working up to a career in Gov IT. I remember hitt

I use a Dactyl Manuform every day, mounted to the arms of my chair like OP, and it’s been one of the better investments I’ve made in my setup in a long time. I can sit typing a lot longer than I used to be able to without back/wrist pa

An actual Espressif ESP32, or the Arduino Feather variant if you want QUIK connectors for most sensors (if you can’t solder etc, or want to use plugs to make it serviceable). Both are cheaper than this yet are the same thing.

For fans of the game, Reubs on YouTube[0] has been remaking the entire game and all its assets using modern engine/tools/etc. It’ll obviously (but regrettably) never get released to the general public, but it’s fun to watch and se

I only got into Godot when 4.0 came out, but I’ll try 3.5 and see how it goes. Thanks for the tip.

I don't do VR, but I've seen some videos on YT showing people do VR stuff in Godot so it "works", but I'm not sure how well.

I recently switched almost entirely from Unity to Godot 4.0 (not a career game dev, I just make small/indie/itch.io type stuff) and I've been absolutely loving it. It's such a breath of fresh air. It's light, fast,

Whenever I've done lists like this, I make the first-load randomise but give the user options to reorder the list in various ways (alphabetical asc/desc, latest activity, etc). I think that's the best way to stop too-blatant

I find and register domains for people (not formally, just on the side through word of mouth) and ignoring the times they’re a small local business specifically want a country tld, I still manage to find a relevant and “good” (memorable etc

A company can “render a service” to someone. It’s not commonly used in English anymore but it’s definitely valid.

Most of the large subs I see in this list haven’t actually “moved”. These new sites linked have very little (if any) content and the subs themselves are still very active. Some of them seem legit, but a majority of what I clicked seem like

I can’t tell if this is an AI fake or not, and that scares me.

Yeah I’d just let it go on forever but keep a score and ratio, like k:d ratios in shooter games.

Well that just destroys every single company who do customer support via Twitter. I’ve had lots of success tweeting at companies when I need help and their email/phone support had been useless. Whether it’s because their social media s

Yeah we’ve got ~20 or so of the Ikea ones and we do love them, but a few have chipped in that way. They’re still amazing for the price though considering how thick they are and how heat/cold/etc resistant they are. Many other bran

Not for everybody but it is for a lot of people. Pretty much everyone I followed in my hobbies have switched over and I don’t go back to twitter anymore, and have more content than I can keep up on in Mastadon. I’ve been perfectly happy wit

VTech stuff has always been awesome. Indestructible, simple, etc. We have a bunch of their stuff.

Thanks, that’s a good idea for an interim solution. I hadn’t seen the full keynote until after my comment so hopefully the new autocorrect really is better in general.

It still refuses to let me swear. Ever. No matter how often I correct it. As an Australian I find that really ducking ridiculous and an afront to my national bloody identity.

They’ve recently killed i.Reddit and /.compact (the mobile versions of old.reddit) and have also gimped old.reddit immensely over the last year, with things like images being force-embedded into the new layout even if you access the ra

I go to my local hackerspace a couple times a week and there's nearly always a few people working on software, and just there for the social aspects and/or to bounce ideas/solutions off others.

Purely anecdata but I spend a lot of time walking and cycling, and I couldn’t agree with you more. Tesla Y/3 drivers are up there with BMW (higher end newer model) drivers as the most arrogant and oblivious drivers on the road. It’s ac

This is awesome. This is all I need for personal projects, and I've been looking for a "kanban lite" for a while.
