Me personally? No. But there are a lot of open bug reports, feature requests and PRs. None of them seem to get any response at all.

Maybe it's deemed complete but then I'd wish they just add a message saying so.

Too bad there hasn't been any development at all since July 2023

Depending on your exact use case checkout

- RegShot

- Or monitor yourself with some WMI query

e.g. [...]/joyce/joyce_intro.html

Re:Show HN: Web Game – Squirrel shoots nuts on Saturday January 01, 2022 @05:19AM (#29757147)
Nice game.

Seems inspired by the old "Crush the castle" flash games. Even some of the level layouts seem vaguely familiar.

Loads way too many (all?) assets on first load! Huge multi-MB images?

No information on how to play or what even the goal is.

The throwing is kinda strange: You need to pull back the squirrel but the nuts shoot from somewhere behind the squirrel. The control/aim is also very limited and I basically just spammed the shooting

Re:Perry-Castañeda Library Map Collection on Wednesday December 29, 2021 @04:31AM (#29723275)
More like: This is 20% of the maps in their collection
Re:Perry-Castañeda Library Map Collection on Wednesday December 29, 2021 @04:28AM (#29723259)
They aren't. It says right on the page that only 20% are actually online. Additionally the site is now archived and doesn't get any further updates.

A shame really that an university department needs/needed to rely on external funding to digitize the maps it already has and apparently they didn't get enough money and now stopped the effort

Or maybe they didn't stop the effort and only this page is not the "go-to" place anymore. Bit unclear to me

What a cryptic message. How is somebody from outside the USA supposed to understand what you are saying?
