Kdenlive is free and open-source and is so great, such a slept on app

Dart is such an amazing language. I really wish it gained traction in more industries.

Check out Ayn Odin 2 Mini, it's an Android handheld with a PS Vita design, you can use it to emulate lots of games too (including Vita using Vita3k emulator).

What you're saying is not happening on macOS so what is your argument really?

I trust JetBrains way more than Google to keep products around
No idea why you guys put up with this bullshit. I use Safari on macOS, it works great. I use Firefox on my Windows PC, it works great.
Re:Zed, a collaborative code editor, is now open source on Thursday January 25, 2024 @02:38AM (#39127185)
I won't switch from neovim but I gave this a try and I quite like it. It really is very fast and snappy. If I were using VS Code I would've switched to this one.

> Instead of remembering cryptic commands

I use vim and nothing about its commands are "cryptic" to me. You want to "go to definition"? You press "gd" as in "(g)o to (d)efinition". What's cryptic about this?

Re:Ask HN: What apps have you created for your own use? on Wednesday December 13, 2023 @07:55AM (#38626654)
I bought one of those consoles with Android that works great for emulating games. I created the app called Beacon which is an Android launcher that helps organizing all the retro games in a nice interface. I got quite a few people that bought it and are fans of it and even the biggest YouTuber in this space with 400k subscribers showed my app in one of his videos.

Safari seems a bit faster to me
Re:RyujinX – Open Source Nintendo Switch Emulator on Thursday August 31, 2023 @05:06AM (#37334388)
Yes, for Yuzu you need a Snapdragon SoC otherwise the games crash instantly. If you have a Mali GPU you have to wait until they add support for it. Skyline supports Mali but performance is reduced. Btw Skyline ceased development, some of the devs forked it and will continue development on Strato (https://strato-emu.com). If you guys use Android handhelds I recommend using Beacon Game Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.radikal.ga...)

did they remove the "huddle" feature yet?
how many more social medias to we need anyway?
same here, I use Chromium but it's the latest version and I enabled those flags... website still does not work
Re:LazyVim on Monday July 17, 2023 @04:25AM (#36755517)
I think it depends what you use it for. I use neovim for Flutter and it works great. If I want to do Android dev I need Android Studio.
Re:PCSX2 is an open source PS2 Emulator on Thursday July 13, 2023 @03:36AM (#36706100)
I remember forever ago I was trying to play DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 3 on this emulator which was at version 0.9.4 at the time. The game lagged on my weak PC and I was fiddling with the settings on a daily basis trying to make it run better. I got to learn all of the settings and what they do. I finished the game even if it was laggy. What a great time.

Re:Epic’s Verse Programming Language on Thursday March 23, 2023 @03:35AM (#35271543)
Yes, they are working on bringing it into the main engine in the future
As they should. Great stuff - even though I will keep using Safari, I love seeing more options
Nice. How will you fix big download times? I imagine it sounds to cool to be able to start a game in a browser straight away until you realise you still have to download it like any native game, so in reality other than avoiding installing a marketplace like Steam it's not much of a difference experience to play in the browser.
Re:Pico8 Music Synthesizer on Friday December 23, 2022 @03:48AM (#34103661)
what were some of the biggest challenges when making a synth?
Bad idea. The small guy with a genius innovation will get eaten by the big corporation with 100x more resources.
What if I write a book when I'm 20 and is a huge flop but it gets massive success 30 years later when I'm 50?

Are you sure you are a developer?

Re:Vim After 15 Years on Thursday October 27, 2022 @08:11AM (#33356358)
Lua is the only difference but it makes all the difference. From my understanding, Lua is nicer than Vimscript, this means more people will create more interesting and better Lua plugins, that can only be used in neovim. LuaJIT is also fast.
Re:Vim After 15 Years on Thursday October 27, 2022 @02:05AM (#33353750)
I also use kitty + neovim. I highly agree.
