I couldn't find any articles agreeing with you on the GBA aspect, and I think you're overestimating the "adult design change" versus "you can now play video games without having the perfect light source" aspect

I think the point is it "could" work on Linux, but a significant portion of devs consider that to be be a bad method of solving the problem.

The mall down the street from my old apartment had one. It was small and discrete though; I passed it plenty of times before realizing what it was.

Source? The only time the author mentions his wife in the article is that she's working full-time and would dislike some server placements.

Pretty sure Gargron and lain talk on a semi-regular basis and are on good terms with each other, so hopefully it will.

MapleStory had a "cash shop" in 2004, not loot boxes. Very common design at the time, it was just an in-game store that only took real money in return for items. MS was actually somewhat famous at the time for having a fair, cosme

Pidgin/libpurple worked a lot better when most chat services were variants of XMPP. Now everything's proprietary and hostile to unofficial clients. Most Matrix bridges have to do stuff like scrape the webapps to work.

I'm in a similar situation: My bridge/homeserver is in Germany while I'm in the USA. I've been hanging out in the mautrix-facebook room for a while and as far as I can tell it's different for almost everyone. Some p

I'm interested to see how they handle the Facebook messenger bridge since FB seems to rather aggressive about the bridge from logging in. I've been running Tulir's bridge [0] for a few months now and my Facebook account gets

Considering DF is still all mostly single threaded and IIRC Toady doesn't really know how to make it multi-threaded (per his own admition) that might take a while.

I think AV-98 has a setting or function for dumping the raw results of a gemsite. But I think the main reason there's no example is because there's very little to show. Just make a text document and if you need to link to somethin

That sounds like a job for public automated mod logs. Naturally people will still complain since it's impossible to fix people, but I'd imagine having a "authoritative" list of every moderator action and the accompanying

The College Park one might be an interesting option for them, as it's already in a pseudo-"mixed use" area. The location immediately borders an apartment complex and small shopping center. It's actually quite similar alr

Go supports "vendor" folders for storing dependencies locally after initial download. That combined with Go Modules means you can handle everything locally and (I believe) reproducible.

Vaporwave, despite using a lot of 80s samples, is generally more associated with the 90s. Vaporwave is all about the simultaneous apex and decline of mall culture, consumer excess in optimism of the post-Cold War, and early WWW aesthetic. 7

There is the Castor[1] GUI client, which ends up being a bit nicer to use. But the protocol draws heavily from Gopher so text-based clients are the default. [1] https://sr.ht/~julienxx/Castor/

Rust will start edging out Go once Rust becomes easier than Go to prototype/start projects. Rust is a great language, but right now I can start a project in Go and have someone else start a project in Go and have something up and worki

Perhaps you're thinking of Hiveworks? They're less an ad network and more like a publishing company for webcomics. Many of those types of "webcomic ad-rings" are.
