Leave Kodi behind in 2010 and switch over to Jellyfin for better results.

So, should Kamala play into this by walking out to the podium at her next rally to Meredith Brooks's "Bitch" to troll Trump?

I thought it was NOT shutting down and is instead turning into 100% a news site only?

Probably unintended side-effect of this post: A few people like me discovering new communities to follow. Thank you!

A kid in high school got caught jerking off in the bathroom by the school principal. His full name became a euphemism for jerking off after that.

It's an upgrade to the DOOM (1993) and DOOM II versions on Steam currently, which usually are only $2-3 each from what I remember.

I have to imagine that his really terrible takes have something to do with that.

When you launch, you get a prompt from Steam asking if you want to run this new rerelease or the original MS-DOS versions.

Switch joycon situation is worse.

Some COVID stuff, some women in programming stuff. Probably more that I'm not even aware of since I stopped paying attention.

The guy making it is well known for porting a lot of NES games to SNES with added MSU-1 audio added and such.

Didn't know about it either so I figured some others would want to know about it too.

It's a weird take from someone kind of uninformed. The assumption that the company would base the release off of the GPL'd version and not the original source code is odd. Also, the claim that it's Windows only when it's cross platform so....?

Thank you so much for posting this and reminding me about this project. I was looking to run his previous similar project that I think was just called Timeline when I saw he was working on this. Can't wait to dig in.

Patents they have to dance around.

People also used RHDN as a news source to find out about new hacks and translation releases, and it was the best resource for doing that. And it sounds like it still will be going forward, so... I disagree with you on that.

The original MS-DOS versions are still directly playable too.

Proxmox maps user ids between itself and lxc containers and it took me a bit of time to figure it out. I would highly suggest reading the following link as it's how I worked it out. I ended up chown'ing to 101000 which maps to user 1000 - the default user - in my lxcs.

I'll make it easier for you, all his stuff is always kept up-to-date here: https://archive.org/details/@infidelity

Final Fantasy VII, even though it was unfinished at the time. The N64 Zelda games never did anything for me personally but I'm in the minority there.

This is exactly why for everything fediverse, I only run my own.

Absolutely not alone on that. Square Enix's prices on all their old titles are about 50% more than I'm willing to drop on them at any given time.

I am. Up to 8 at this point.

Bathrooms were shared back then between teachers and students. And when this happened, it was while class was ongoing, so he had very little expectation that he would run into any kids outside of class.

I had originally hoped to use my Mastodon account to follow Lemmy communities but the fact that every single comment on a post pops up in my feed made it... just really unusable. Really happy with using #mbin for Lemmy though and keeping my Mastodon and Mbin separate.

Different people have different ideas of retrogaming, I guess you can say. Some will see it purely as playing those old games from the past exclusively, others will see things like this - rom hacks - as being part of that, some others may consider games that have a retro style as being part of it as well. When it comes to what I post here, I stick to things that I think people that come here might be interested in and just let the upvotes/downvotes decide.

A true end of an era. So glad to see the file database get dropped on internet archive.

So happy to support one of my Mastodon follows. Really happy with how the game ended up turning out, can't wait to play more of it.

Legal action based on what?

Thanks for posting this, had no idea it was coming along this well!

There are dedicated Jellyfin clients but I mainly just use the web client that is part of the server 90% of the time.

It's not for me. I really didn't even find out who he was until I logged out of Youtube one day to see his videos all over the homepage. Good seeing him making donations but I can't help but think he's an overall negative for the world in general.

Run the docker compose file. That's pretty much all you need to do.

I just tried the online multiplayer, jumped into a co-op game with someone else in Doom E1M1 and it slowly started filling with players and got both crowded and chaotic. 16 players running around a map is just insane fun.

If your rank is the same as hers, you wouldn't be getting wide matches. Wide matches are specifically for teams of people with a very wide distribution of rankings, therefore the name "wide". So finish your placements and see what you get. But for me and my friends, even if we get wide matches, the longest we've ever waited was 8 minutes for a game.

The games cost like $2 on Steam. They probably lost money doing this if anything especially since they gave it away free to people who bought the previous releases.

Such a great band, sad to see they went different ways, but still new music coming out from both sides.

I wasn't aware of GlazeWM before, so thanks for giving me something else to check out.

No problems here on PC or my ROG Ally X. Maybe a compatibility issue on Steam Deck.

Playing videogames and listening to music are passive activities. Going to the gym, learning to play guitar, working on a YouTube channel, those are all active activities which build up a skill that requires time and effort being put into them. It's often said that it takes ten thousand hours to get really master something, but it often takes a lot less to get good enough at them. It sounds to me like you pick something new up, find that you aren't instantly good at it and give up and no, that's not normal. You say you're 35 years old, but that's really kind of a child-like mentality to have. It sounds to me like you really need to understand what the underlying fear/problem is here that is causing you to give up.
