Ist wirklich ein schönes Gerät. Meine Frau und ich haben auch eines. Das einzige was mich stört ist, dass Hakchi2 nur unter Windows läuft, ich aber schon seit jahren keinen eigenen Windows-Rechner mehr besitze. Aber vielleich tut sich da ja auch nochmal etwas.

@platypus
Was benutzt du für die Emulation? Ein gehacktes SNESmini? Ich sehe da so etwas am unteren Bildrand. ;-)

@Gargron
On the other hand you don't really explain what you 'do' on mastodon. You call it a 'micro-blogging service'. I don't think everybody does understand what this means. Instead you should say that users can publish text or media on mastodon and other users can like it, boost it to raise visibility or comment it.

Hope my thoughts are anyhow helpfull. I can give you a bit more details later if you like.

@Gargron
I just had a look at join mastodon.org and think I've some ideas how the page could become more helpfull for non-tech people.
The site is full of technical vocabulary and sometimes there are different words for the same thing. Eg. You use the words 'community', 'server' and 'instance' but mean the same. Furthermore you put the focus on self-hosting a lot. Thats nothing a non-tech users are interested in. Maybe things like this will even scare such a person away.

It seems like SuperTux is in need for new contributors. Would somebody here in fediverse mind to help them out?

Past weekend I worked on RogueBox Adventures again and made some progress. But everything I made only felt halfway finnished, so I didn't upload it yet. I hope today or tomorrow will be some time to work on.

I like the public domain assets. Maybe someone should upload them on opengameart.org too.

On a old USB pendrive I found a few of my attempts to create music from a few years ago. I listened to it. It sounds like some kind of experimental ambient music but one or two songs aren't that bad (at least I thinke so). I ask me if I should release this to public domain somehow.

@bob
Oh I did not read the article before I posted. But if you replace FOSS with humans I'm still right.

@bob
A company like Microsoft can't be ethical by its nature. Big companies are only interested in their profit at the end of the day. FOSS is only intresting to them if it can help to earn even more money (or spent less of it).

@Aznorth
If other people could have a potato PC I could have a potato phone too. ;-)

New Pipe is a awsome app. Its the best youtube expirience I ever had and runs much faster then the native youtube app on my potato phone.

Cool! Gearhead Caramel got a new release. Slowly this project takes shape!

@blueberrysoft
I want to take a short video of it but my screencapturing app seems to be broken. :-/

Today I added a very cool feature to Roguebox Adventures. Pets!
Okay to be honest its just one pet right now (a green blob). It will be generated inside the new hub world and can follow you on your adventures.

@ignitionigel
I think I know which people you mean and I have to agree.
Beeing part of a minority dosn't give you the right to to treat other people like shit.
People that part of minor groups should know how it feels to be discriminated/humiliated and don't act to other people that way.

Finally weekend!
It was a busy but successfull week, with a big down at the beginning.
Now I like to work on RogueBox Adventures for a bit.
