Great review! And wow, this thing looks fantastic. After using a horizontal retro emulator, I wasn’t sure if I would ever want a vertical one again. Horizontal just immediately felt so much more comfortable for me. But this one definitely looks tempting. Also, the vertical handheld I have, a Miyoo mini, is really small, so maybe that’s part of my ergonomics problem.

I have a Miyoo Mini also! Mine is a V2, but I know exactly what you mean about the small size. Its basically tinier than a deck of cards!

Between that and this, the ergonomics are night and day. Its far more comfortable. The shock was how comfortable, since it really is a big one!

But I’ve also been enjoying the Miyoo Mini Flip lately!

How do you feel about it running android instead of whatever version of linux like the other handhelds they offer? I have been looking at the rg35xx Pro. I currently have an original rg35xx from before the chip upgrade.

It has pros and cons I love how Linux has SO many options, and community builds are almost endless. But then again, Android gives you so many advantages. Emulation is a breeze, and if you adopt a front-end like Beacon, it can launch straight into that.

Android made me download a ton of 4:3 cartoons (looked amazing on the screen!), listen to music, and emulators are so very easy to use on there.

I think it’ll come down to preference, but to me Android is an asset on this one. Thinking of GameHub Lite, for example.

I heard some great things about the game.

Tried it out and didn’t see a point. Everything in the ocean is dangerous and you had no objectives.

So you could just stay on your ship forever.

I like to think I won the game that way

Edit: seems like people didn’t like my attempted to be funny comment about the game unfortunately not being my style. IMO that’s what we should have in gaming though, people going out of their comfort zone and trying many genres. I doubted I would like hades much but it became one of my all time favourites.

YiddishMcSquidish,

Saw a speedrun of it during one of the gdqs. Game takes a sharp left turn halfway through and gets a narrative.

Rekorse,

The point is to escape the planet. Its one of the scariest adventure games I’ve played before, super cool. Ive heard some people have gotten over underwater fears playing it too because of how strong the emotional reaction can be.

Hadriscus,

Yes that’s me !!!

who,

you had no objectives.

So you could just stay on your ship forever.

Are you sure you haven’t inverted the cause/effect relationship here? ;)

Hadriscus,

You can’t, if you do so you starve

Grandwolf319,

There was no hunger meter when I played, maybe that’s due to the difficulty setting?

Hadriscus,

ah, hmmm… can’t remember but that might be it. It’s at least an incentive to survive

wait tell me about bongo cat

BlindFrog,

It counts the keyboard taps & cursor clicks (optional) that you make, and your desktop pet cat taps whenever you type/click. As a reward for your tippity tappity productivity, you periodically get random cat costumes and skins. You can also buy/sell the costumes & reskins on the steam community marketplace.

It doesn’t work on Linux for me (mint btw), but I use it on my school laptop

I’m not sure how segregation/listening of inputs works between software in Linux, but if there’s a way around it to get bongo cat to work… 👉👈

yermaw,

That sounds suspiciously like the virus-riddled desktop buddies of the late 90s

BlindFrog,
Gawdl3y,

X11 lets any window constantly monitor keyboard input in the background, but in Wayland, only the active foreground window can by default. I unfortunately don’t know of a trivial workaround to allow that currently.

Who the hell out there is leaving a negative review on Schedule I? Are there actually Drug Dealer Sim fanboys?

SippyCup,

5k ish negative reviews and they seem to come in two flavors, multiplayer bugs and too repetitive.

undeffeined,

It may indeed be repetitve but Its so satisfying. Yesterday at midnight I told myself I would just sell some more Sweet Smegma and call it a night but next thing I know its 2 AM and it only felt like 10 min.

One of the keys to being happy is just letting other people enjoy things.

ChrisMcMillan,

This! If someone could explain that to republicans, please?!?

yakko,

You would first have to explain the concept of other people

scutiger,

They can enjoy whatever they want, but they have to enjoy them the right way!

rainwall,

Pretty interesting tiktok take on this posted earlier today on lemmy about a boomer meme:

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/just-coffee-black#fnr11

He goes on to talk about what might have motivated the artist to draw the comic, pointing out that nobody has taken black coffee away from him. Pargin says:

“All that happened is the range of options for other people expanded and he perceived that as persecution […] this is not political, this is a human nature thing. Most people are not satisfied to simply have the option to live their life the way they want. They also want to feel normal […] and see that most people have made the same choice they have made.

Echolynx,

Clever take on that, thanks for sharing.

Oh, that’s Jason Pargin. People might recognize his pen name David Wong.

Zink,

Yep and part of that is just letting the things exist and be what they are, even if they aren’t for you.

Let DOOM be what it is for those of us who were the right edgy age at the right time to eat it up. Let the calm games be what they are too, without requiring combat mechanics.

People gotta practice letting go. In general. About literally anything. The correlation I see in my acquaintances between not letting go of trivial shit (including the existence of different types of people that like different things) is stark.

usernamefactory,

Also for those who the “right edgy age” is their whole life.

Zink,

Yeah that too. Didn’t mean to imply otherwise!

In my old age with sophisticated tastes I do enjoy a little Brutal DOOM now and again.

Akt0, do astronomy w Question about lunar calendars

But we don’t have a ‘Year 0’, it goes 1BCE to 1 CE.

Lunations are only ~29.5 days long, between specific moon phases. They still count one year as 12 lunations, ~354 days. Right now is Rajab on the Islamic Calendar, but that’s still the month, not the moon. According to the Farmers Almanac, January is the Wolf Moon, taking from both Native American and European Colonial traditions.

Yes, there are multiple counts. Rajab is the 7th month of the Islamic (Hijri) Calendar, AH 1447, while Tevet is the 4th month of the Hebrew Calendar, AM 5786.

Hopefully this helps, and I understood you correctly. If not, Wikipedia has charts of the current date according to multiple calendars when looking at specific calendars, like the Islamic Calendar, or you can look more at Lunar Calendars, and the differences between Solar, Lunisolar, and Lunar Calendars.

Great game. That first dive from the capsule, amazing

Hadriscus,

I’ll always remember the first minute or so. Just uncomparable to anything else

Happy new year. Loved Subnautica, it helped me get past my thalassophobia. I also got into freediving at roughly the same time (around 2017 if my memory serves right). Fantastic experience, one of the most impactful in my gaming journey. Have a good one

Why can’t we have Doom except instead of shooting monsters, we have to manage train schedules? In space?

Still a Satisfactory level of shooting in that game imo

thethunderwolf,

That’s what they’re saying. Sans means without, so “Sans the lack of shooting” is “Without the lack of shooting”

There are plenty of guns in that game though

There’s shooting in Factorio. You can even automate pistols for some reason.
