Nice, now just another year to go while they fix it to run well on the Steamdeck.

Anno 1800
I’ve been eyeing the boardgame version which is also highly regarded. I guess will have to look into the original too. Always fun when hobbies intersect.
With Fez I feel I may have forever missed the window when I could have picked it up. It used to go on sale for $1.99 with an all time low of $0.99. Now it never gets under $4.99.
In a vacuum I’d probably just pick it up for 4.99 but knowing the pricing history I just can’t do it.
I’ve done many hours of phonecalls on mine. Mic quality is acceptable, slightly mushy. Wind is an issue for example when riding a bike at higher speeds. Wearing a hoodie over them can block the mic too.
I’ve been using various Aftershokz/Shokz models for many years and well over a thousand hours. They are a great option for speech-focused contents like podcasts, audiobooks and that’s what I use them for. I almost never use them for music, the lack of bass (even with earplugs) just doesn’t do it for me. But I don’t find any earbuds satisfactory for music either so maybe I am more picky than most.
I agree with OP about the controls. They are workable but could be much better even considering the limited inputs. I particularly hate the choice of triple-click for backwards-seek and I mess up the timing half the time. Another pet-peeve is the loud beep on play/pause that cannot be turned off. Using the phone/computer controls instead of the on-device ones avoid these issues.
As far as models I originally got the Aeropex and later on “downgraded” to the OpenMove. The audio quality is comparable between the two, the only thing you are missing with the lower end model is comfort - but that is highly subjective! I actually prefer the way the OpenMove feels.
I really wish that there was more competition in this space. The Shokz products are a bit overpriced and slow to evolve and the rest of the options I’ve seen seems lower quality and worse form factor. Would love to hear if anybody has found a different brand that they prefer over the Shokz models.
Yep, original is Java and uses libGDX. Slay the Spire is mentioned in the showcase.
SearXNG is great at what it does but it falls into the Bing/Google/etc-frontend category since it just forwards your query to one of the search engines it has modules for. It doesn’t have its own crawl and index.
I wish that was the case but sadly most of them are basically Bing or Google frontends or belong to entities that I trust even less. As far as I can tell there are very few independent crawls out there.
Roguelikes: DCSS, Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Nethack
And Downfall has a scene for the second half of the joke. (Warning, while it’s not graphic you may not want the scene in your head)
For spot checks I just run sensors
or watch sensors
.
sar -m TEMP | grep amdgpu
when I want to see history (needs the sysstat cronjob configured to collect sensors data).
How visible is this to the average user? Just wondering because I have yet to see any spam at all in my Mastodon feeds. Big thanks to the admins for being on top of it!
If you care about privacy, which I understand, you probably want to leave quickly.
Just because you care about privacy it doesn’t mean that you have to stay indoors all the time. You can still hang around on the town square you just have to be conscious about what you do where.
A big part of caring about privacy is understanding how the platforms you use work and using them accordingly. With proprietary platforms this is often opaque and the rules can change. Open platforms are transparent and you can actually understand them - if you make the effort.
gotosocial might we worth checking out. It provides Mastodon-compatible APIs (so you can run Mastodon clients and UIs against it) but it’s less resource hungry and easier to deploy (in my experience). The caveat is that it’s less mature.
They federate because it’s the most efficient way to scrape fediverse instances and build profiles on fediverse users.
That’s not true. Quiet scraping is much easier to implement than integrating AP into your platform.

Not a huge fan of the noise this adds to the threads. Would be nice if Lemmy frontends could provide better ways to interact with bots. For example custom buttons that would PM the bot with the appropriate message to trigger the action.
And keeping the v2 (or v3+WebRequest) support in the browser is not enough, they’d also have to start running their own extension store since presumably the Chrome one will no longer carry such extensions.
It’s been mostly Isaac as usual but I picked up Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate yesterday and I like it a lot. It’s a fast-playing roguelite with a neat idea that’s implemented well. The game mechanics remind me of Hoplite on mobile.
The game is currently on sale and has a free demo. It has good controller input and low resource use, a great fit for the Deck.
