Finally something for Linux, from proton.

The pen flip/flicking seems like a skill I would love to learn. Do you have a video or know of a video showing or teaching this?

I can’t wait for people to find out that a good portion of the inventory is actually bootleg fakes. From my past experience they won’t open them up to check in front of a paying customer, the customer is charged with knowing how to spot fakes.

I get it, on one hand I can see trying to make sure it looks good for years to come. And I also see why people are upset from a historical context. As a person who grew up with aliens and terminator on vhs/laserdisc/dvd, I love and appreciate the film grain. And I can appreciate some removal of the grain to help with clarity. But remove every bit of grain makes it look and feel like a different movie. I also understand why they attempted to update the audio to go with the film, but again I also appreciate leaving the original audio alone so that people can have a little of the original left to enjoy. Over all I consider this to be both a good and bad thing. Cameran is doing things most studios don’t or won’t do which is allowing studios and other group who do restoration work to see what the winds of change are requesting of them.

Your second link is honestly should be a sticky on a lot of communities and I try to always show people that video to illustrate how hard things are for people.

True I did forget to sing the praises of the black nes cart, and honestly they are nicer looking than the mass-market official grey carts we got.

Interesting that they released a game on the digital store when the predecessor basically gave the middle finger to Nintendo and made their own carts for the nes that were not authorized. their carts would use in-built switches to bypass the drm chip on the nes.

Get your dark magic out of here, vile wizard!

If you also live in Europe or set up your computer in the US with European English then you can also skirt some of the ads as well

The home edition of windows has these ads baked in, but the pro/enterprise editions seem to be able to avoid this for now.

I waited to see if anyone mentioned it, but, POD. A old 1997 racing game from Microsoft built by Ubisoft. You can get the gold edition on GoG for rather cheap but I would absolutely love to see a remaster or remake. Unfortunately I would rather it not be made by Ubisoft as I don’t want to be forced into a separate account login setup from Ubisoft.

While the puzzle might not have a name from the company, it is a rather famous painting by the artist Bev Doolittle. Who named the painting “Pintos”. The other similar art with these horses were called “Hide and Seek Cameo” and were versioned A , B, C, D, E, F, respectively.

If memory serves that particular brown in recent manufacturing from Lego was known by the public over some time to have embrittlement issues, so probably not something you did to it, but something as of now that Lego has fixed on their end if you pick up that brown from a current set or from their stores.

Ubuntu 4.10 “warty”

My profile has my matrix name. I figured people have known that was a feature for lemmy profiles, but I guess that was my mistake.

Every section had missing downloads. But with some web inspection, I found some interesting obfuscation using what I think is JavaScript on the web pages that “used” to hold the download links, for the files that were requested to be removed. If we can figure out how to reverse the code to reveal the link again we could grab (assuming they are still on the server) the files manually.

If you want to chat about this I’m on matrix

I can confirm that the script still works, but sadly the site owner of Vim has removed the file from the server. The script sees a file link but will download nothing. When testing the script with just NES, it will see a game, but will throw an error of “remote files name has no length”, so going forward you could test via a vpn and see if they adjusted their files to be available via a country that doesn’t care, or they just haven’t gotten around to cleaning up their file directory list post removal.

P.S. the script showed that 23 field failed to download so one can assume those files were the one Nintendo decided to have them remove.

There is a bit of advise for actors/actresses from a director (forgot their name) where they said “if the only thing about you is that you are on time/early, and you are pleasant to work with, you will always find a job in acting. If you don’t care and lack punctuality, and are hard to work with or around (if necessary) then you will find fewer and fewer opportunities as time goes on.”
