Yeah, good interview.

RIP Steve. Gonna listen to Atomizer and Pod again tonight.

I taught myself some 2D game design and coding with Phaser. My idea was to recreate 80s arcade games like frogger and asteroids. It's great for that and my games run in the browser, pure Javascript.

Just remember that making a game includes making artwork and sound and intro screens and more. It's a lot of work.

perishthethought ,

Yah, I have somebody's 2048 game in my terminal here and play that when I need to stop thinking thoughts for a second.

OK, but pretend for a second that some of us are mere mortals. Is there a TUI game dev engine (?) we could learn to dev in fairly quickly? One that protects us from the pitfalls of the C language?

Asking for myself...

Coonskin (1976 1080p NSFW) ( www.youtube.com )

Coonskin is a 1975 American live-action/animated satirical crime film written and directed by Ralph Bakshi. The film references the Uncle Remus folk tales, and satirizes the blaxploitation film genre as well as Disney's racially controversial film Song of the South, adapted from the Uncle Remus folk tales. The film's narrative...

perishthethought OP Mod ,

Oh boy. Here we go. Probably everyone should read the Wikipedia page before watching this, eh.

Richard Eder of The New York Times wrote, "[Coonskin] could be his masterpiece [...] a shattering successful effort to use an uncommon form—cartoons and live action combined—to convey the hallucinatory violence and frustration of American city life, specifically black city life [...] lyrically violent, yet in no way [does it] exploit violence." Variety called the film a "brutal satire from the streets.

Not for all tastes [...] not avant-garde. [...] The target audience is youth who read comics in the undergrounds."

How to opt out of the privacy nightmare that comes with new Hondas ( sherwood.news )

There are lots of reasons to want to shut off your car’s data collection. The Mozilla Foundation has called modern cars “surveillance machines on wheels” and ranked them worse than any other product category last year, with all 25 car brands they reviewed failing to offer adequate privacy protections....

perishthethought ,

That. Their sound and video recordings could pick up whatever you do in the car. But I think this is really just lawyers being cautious. (I hope)

perishthethought ,

IMHO, three leaders instead of two would be an improvement. I say that, even though I know finding enough parents / leaders willing to give of their time is very difficult.

perishthethought ,

I was lost the whole time but it was still fun to watch, somehow.

perishthethought ,

Aha, fan of Brazil, I see. ʘ‿ʘ

Classic sci-fi story of a very different society, different mores. No CGI. Released just before the first Star Wars movie.

So great.

perishthethought OP Mod ,

Don't forget the option of getting gunned down by the police.

perishthethought OP Mod ,

Ha! He doesn't know what to do with the three seashells!

No wait, wrong movie

perishthethought ,

2 ... Is there a GUI (I know) way to see all applications, where they’re installed from, with an easy remove button? Akin to what windows offers?

For a GUI option, with KDE, I can go into the Discover app store, and then click the "Installed" link in the lower-right.

Example...

For a CLI way to list all apps, I found this page which gives this command:

for app in /usr/share/applications/*.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/*.desktop; do app="${app##/*/}"; echo "${app::-8}"; done | sort

Have fun finding the best option for your system.

perishthethought ,

Very cool. Rousseau would be proud but she gives these her own touch really. Makes me miss living in CA.

perishthethought OP ,

Ahh, a person of good taste.

And your age is the hardest age
Everything drags and drags
You're looking funny, you ain't laughing, are you?

perishthethought OP ,

Now there's some 2000s stuff, right there. I forgot about that kind of marketing they used to do.

perishthethought OP ,

Same. Except I'm gonna keep mine totally stock, even with the scratched up back cover.

perishthethought OP ,

Lol, well, not exactly the same I guess

perishthethought OP ,

Oh man, I'm no expert or anything. I guess just the standard stuff: check out the seller, make sure they appear legit.

I watched a video yesterday (Denki, I think?) where he said people seem to be looking for the 5th Gen, v5.5, for the specific DAC they used inside the iPod. I don't know about that. I didn't get this for the audiophile experience, eh.

perishthethought ,

Drove across Kansas once. Every small town has 1 grain silo, 1 post office, 1 bank. Over and over.

perishthethought OP ,

I believe it's helps expose apps running on a home server to the public internet, securely. It allows self hosters to tie internal apps to a domain name. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

perishthethought OP ,

They came out of the Knitting Factory in NYC, very underground, artsy scene. Three albums in the mid 90s. Then, the singer (M. Doughty) has made a bunch of solo records. Not at all what I usually go for but all of it interesting at the least.

perishthethought OP ,

Oh, thanks much. I didn't realize there's another "support" community here. We should consider this closed and I will just monitor the other communities for a fix. Cheers,
