This could be game changing for introducing shader programming to more developers if it pans out.

Daxtron2 ,

When a library I'm using at work doesn't have a feature I want or has a subpar implementation for my use case, I often try to send my changes upstream. Sometimes they get accepted, sometimes they're too specific of a usecase.

Daxtron2 ,

Happens a lot on sketchy sites. Its ridiculously easy to do with some js

Daxtron2 ,

It basically needs more ergonomic joycons to be usable for more than an hour in handheld mode for me. I've got a pair of hori split pad pros that work really well, but you lose the gyro which kind of sucks for aiming in games like zelda

Daxtron2 ,

Its a good thing you can turn it off then. I always found it made aiming the bow a lot easier

Daxtron2 ,

My old college dorm did this, I told them I don't have a smartphone (lie) and they gave me an access card that works 100% of the time without needing a charge. They might do the same at your gym.

Daxtron2 ,

WSL2 is pretty good. I get better performance running emberjs than my coworkers stuck on Mac do lol

Daxtron2 ,

Its also about getting it out to people who would otherwise have no idea it exists.

Daxtron2 ,

Yeah I get why they initially went for the stack they did, but it would be cool to see a similar project in godot

Daxtron2 ,

That doesn't change the fact that the US has de facto control over most of the web infrastructure

Daxtron2 ,

Bots have been doing this on Reddit forever, it's a lot more noticeable now that most of the good users who generated content have left.

Daxtron2 ,

Have you seen /r/worldnews

I try my best not to

Daxtron2 ,

Sounds pretty nice if it's something you enjoy! I miss being able to do 12 hr days on a project I was actually passionate about lol

Pi.Alert is dead...💀 Long live NetAlert X 🚀 (network monitoring) ( lemmy.world )

After thinking for about a year about it I decided to rename the project to 🚀NetAlertX. This will help prevent confusion about which fork someone is using, and differentiate it from the now stale upstream project. With about 1800 or so commits over the stale project, I thought, this project deserved a new name. It will also...

Daxtron2 ,

They're not related at all, it looks like this is for detecting malicious networked devices.

Daxtron2 ,

It still regularly happens, every system has a breaking point.

Daxtron2 ,

Can't agree with that, I've definitely had corrupted data events happen in the past.

Daxtron2 ,

Not a whole lot to share. Phone was unstable for a bit and one day refused to boot past a blank screen. As far as I could tell from trying to pull data off it, something got corrupted and it could no longer boot but my data was all encrypted with no way to pull it off.

Daxtron2 ,

Still one of my favorite gaming experiences. I recommend everyone to play it at least once through, it's not terribly long but it is an extremely worthwhile experience.

Daxtron2 ,

This is a perfect example of how not to write a system prompt :)

Are there any working tools to rip an entire Instagram account?

I don't have an account myself, and the photos and videos I'm trying to download en masse belong to a famous person's public account. Is there anything I can use to do it (as long as it's not creating an account lol), preferably proxied tools as apparently I get blocked while behind a VPN?...

Daxtron2 ,

Seriously be super careful doing that on... Homework... Sites, as they can and often do contain illegal imagery that the moderation teams might have missed.

Daxtron2 ,

Hahaha valid and I've done something similar. As long as you know what you're going to be getting you should be set, I however downloaded an entire unintentionally exposed endpoint's dataset and got things I would rather never have seen and had to report to LEA.

Horn of Balance - an indie 2D zelda-like

I'm developing 'Horn of Balance', a 2D zelda-like featuring 12 non-linear dungeons, 2 interconnected worlds and a TON of secrets.

Right now, the project is live on Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hornofbalance/horn-of-balance) and we've almost hit the funding goal with just 24 hours left!

There's also a free demo on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2738140/Horn_of_Balance/) and Itch.

I'm happy to answer any questions you might have!

Daxtron2 ,

Really like the art, any plans for ports to mobile? I think it could do really well there. I'll kick some cash to the Kickstarter for sure, any plans to continue if you don't reach the goal?

Daxtron2 ,

Kicked ya some cash :) close to the goal! Hope it gets there!

Daxtron2 ,

Awesome!! Excited to see it come to life!

Daxtron2 ,

Especially when the same thing gets posted to all of them at once and the same post floods your front page.

Daxtron2 ,

I've heard it but never seen it written down haha

Daxtron2 , (edited )

Welp, guess I'm gonna dig out the ol 3ds from a box somewhere.

Edit: searched through my entire basement and finally found it! Charging it now and will dump the data later tonight!

Daxtron2 ,

Thanks for the update, I did see that in discord luckily and resubmitted through my now modded 3ds.

Daxtron2 ,

I've got the old 3ds so luckily it's just a lil hatch for transfers, but that's good to know about for automated stuff! Any other homebrew apps you recommend?

Daxtron2 ,

Just turn them off? That's what I do, my phone never annoys me.

Daxtron2 ,

Why on earth would you fuck with a work laptop. You do not own that and could very easily lose your job over it.

Daxtron2 ,

It transpiles to js and there is some level of stripping for optimization yes.

You are going to be trapped in a room for 12 hours with a mid 2000s office desktop with no internet connection and an external hard drive; what are you putting on the hard drive?

I've got some DOOM WADs I have been meaning to play so I would probably grab Trench Foot, Total Chaos, and the sequel to Ashes 2063, Ashes: Afterglow with a portable install of GZDoom to play them....

Daxtron2 ,

12 hours? I'm sleeping through that whole thing

Daxtron2 ,

I never apply to jobs that require a cover letter. Most of them have shitty work environments anyways

Daxtron2 ,

My job has no cover letter, 2 interviews and it's probably the best dev job I've had. All about finding a company that values your time as a person and not just as an employee. If they make you jump through bs to get hired, they're gonna make you jump through BS to work. I could make 20k more at one of those companies but id hate my work and have no balance.

Daxtron2 ,

Of course you do? There are jobs that won't put you through bullshit just to work there. I never said it wasn't fine, but making you jump through hoops is a sign of a bad workplace.

Daxtron2 ,

If you don't mind me asking where is that? I definitely see a lot of it but it's not ubiquitous.

Daxtron2 ,

"Digital Autism" is not supported by current research to be a real thing. Autistic children are more likely to be attracted to technology as a substitute for social interactions though.
