I actually liked https://thefrontpage.dev/

A shame that it broke a few weeks ago. These projects tends to get abandoned after a while.

I would add Citizen Sleeper to the list. Board-game inspired narrative cyberpunk RPG with a nice story. I loved it and currently I'm playing the second one. It's a short game. Took me around 10 hours to finish though I didn't go throught all the tasks or the full DLC.

I hit a bunch of random keys until it loaded ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Re:What was nice about the UI of Windows 2000 on Thursday June 18, 2026 @12:14PM (#48587652)
I really liked the luna silver and olive green themes. They were not too bad to look at.
Maybe he meant "hopeful"...

Couldn't get the "Join the livestream" button to work in Firefox on desktop. No problem in Chrome.

I would also like to hear more!
Re:Termux on Monday February 02, 2026 @02:08PM (#46859891)
Even if you have Android 16 it's not guaranteed the terminal works. It's disabled by Samsung on my Galaxy A55 for some reason. Maybe the hardware doesn't support the feature.
I'm just as baffled. I went to the comments to better understand but I still don't get it.

I've coded on my phone on several occasions. If you use Android, you don't even need a server or a home computer since Termux works really well as it is. It can run node.js and a bunch of other development tools easily. Or you can just ssh into a server with a development environment and do your stuff their (AI or not).

Re:Steam Machine on Thursday November 13, 2025 @02:58AM (#45912055)
I pretty much already use my Steam Deck as my main Desktop computer at home (I have a laptop for work). If I wanted to upgrade, this would be a no-brainer.
Re:iPhone DevOps on Thursday August 14, 2025 @07:41AM (#44899239)
It's basically possible with any device that supports DP Alt Mode? Any remaining issues are usually software (lack of proper desktop environment etc) but there are ways around that with Android. Samsung has DeX.
Re:iPhone DevOps on Thursday August 14, 2025 @07:37AM (#44899216)
For me personally, it's just the convenience of always having my phone in my pocket. Sometimes when out and about and I have a bit of free time, but haven't brought my laptop, it's nice to be able to just pick up my phone and hack for a bit. I wouldn't do full blown project on it though.

I couple of years back, I really liked replit for having probably the best integrated IDE on a phone. Everything was so smooth and well thought out.

Re:Writing "/etc/hosts" breaks the Substack editor on Friday April 25, 2025 @02:42PM (#43797167)
I remember back in the old days on the Eve Online forums when the word cockpit would always turn up as "c***pit". I was quite amused by that.

It's hardly just one single thing. The book is full of absurd scenes all the way through.

You should check out Marginalia Search as well! https://marginalia-search.com/
Re:DiceDB on Monday March 17, 2025 @04:11AM (#43386188)
It was my first thought as well, before reading the landing page.
TIL why upload on 56k modems were capped on 33.6k. I always wondered about that. Super interesting stuff!

I also remember back in the day that my 56k modem would often only connect at like 48k or so, especially when it was raining. I guess living far out from the city made the connection more noisy?

Re:WASM Wayland Web (WWW) on Friday February 28, 2025 @04:58AM (#43203808)
It's not really meant for end users currently. Your only option is to build from source. But it has made a lot of progress in a relatively short time.
No such thing as a free lunch.
I like this, but it needs to be an offline cli before I would use it :)
Re:What's your favorite RSS feed reader? on Wednesday August 28, 2024 @08:58AM (#41378963)
I use FreshRSS as well and I use it exclusively from Android (Firefox Browser). Works surprisingly well even if it looks a bit dated.
Re:Just Disconnect the Internet on Thursday August 01, 2024 @02:47AM (#41126718)
Denmark has something quite similar (Sundhedsdatanettet).

I think NTFS already supports it? The recent announcement seems to be for native git support.
Re:The Alternative Implementation Problem on Monday May 13, 2024 @05:08AM (#40341154)
Oh, I use it as well, especially on Android where it has proper support for extensions.
Re:Pyspread – The Most Pythonic Spreadsheet on Tuesday May 07, 2024 @08:33AM (#40284722)
I tried to install it on ubuntu 22.04 and got a different error using pip. I'm not experienced enough with Python to quickly figure out how to proceed. It's a shame it isn't easier to install.

Got the same in Denmark
Re:Descent 3 Source Code on Tuesday April 16, 2024 @02:27PM (#40055494)
I used Kali as well. Mostly for Warcraft 2. This must have been before Battle.net.
Re:How web bloat impacts users with slow devices on Sunday March 17, 2024 @03:24AM (#39732562)
The old Opera for mobile did that. I think Chrome had something similar at one point.
