Essentially the same html/css rendering of Firefox or Chromium, still able to access the www, but with javascript fully removed for another language that can be interpreted - like python or lua. Is this feasible?

I'm messing around with my OrangePi5 again, gonna experiment with Armbian and DietPi again. As both offer a minimal installer, I'll want to add a DE, or at least a graphical interface that can run at boot and let me control it with a bluetooth controller.

If not a full DE, just what packages should I experiment with?

Context: Working Designs was a studio that localized several Japanese games for western markets in the 1990s. Besides translation, they would often increase the difficulty of the games they translated

Been wondering that after playing Undertale Yellow (great game, btw)

Romhacks would fall into a different category, more like modding the main game.

Undertale Yellow is a fangame and "prequel" to Undertale. If you liked the original game, chances are high that you'll like UY. It's free and you can get it on the link below

The game does a great job in keeping its universe believably canonical by sidestepping most characters from the original game. You interact with Toriel for a very brief moment in the starting 2 minutes, then you're out to explore another side of the underground. Only Flowey will follow you around and, if you've played the original game and understands how and why he did the things he did, everything he does in UY will make sense. The game doesn't spoil any of the revelations that happen in the OG and only mentions the important characters (Asgore, Toriel, etc) sparingly and without extrapolations, so it really does a good job of acting as a prequel that respects the canon and doesn't extrapolate.

The new characters really feel like they belong in the OG, with a neutral/pacifist run showing how silly, dorky and lovable they are, this is true even for the background NPCs and enemies you fight. Not every such NPC is lovable, some are kinda assholes, and that's a good contrast.

Perhaps most important, the soundtrack is fucking awesome (the Gamejolt link above also lists the soundtrack for listening. 77 - Meltdown, for one of the later areas, rocks). Some are references and/or homages to original tunes. Boss themes are super memorable and really fit the respective characters.

One thing that I loved is that every enemy has a "hurt" graphic, which shows once they're under 1/3 of health, which also lets you spare them. Seeing them hurt like that does make me feel kinda bad.

Oh, a genocide run won't be a cakewalk like the OG, you'll be up against a number of alternative bosses that will give your reflexes a workout (I've died on the first genocide-exclusive boss 8 times, and that's after a 0-death, up to the final boss, neutral run).

The CD case was all warped due to heat, the CD didn't survive either :/

How long was it there? Some years, i think

I don't know if this is stance specific, but whenever I create a new post and start typing the title, it'll list some "posts that might be related", limited to the community if it's already selected.

The problem is that the posts are almost never related to anything I'm writing in the title or might even write in the body at all. For instance, I just posted a question on how to poison videos against AI, the "might be related" posts were about Donald Trump and Epstein, with another post being about WoW Mists of Pandaria.

It seems to look for the post body for all the words in the title first instead of looking for any similar title first

Ideally something that wouldn't leave viewers complaining about obvious artifacts or effects, but I'm willing to make some compromises

Back in 2020, Brazil launched the PIX system of instant money transfer between any and every bank within the country. Meta was already trying to implement Whatsapp Pay in Brazil around late May, but was being held back by regulation agencies, on purpose, in order for PIX to rollout first. PIX started working around November 2020, while Whatsapp Pay was allowed to resume work in March 2021, but it fell flat and was scrapped away some time later.

For context, some 98% of Brazilian phones have whatsapp and it is the 2nd largest market for the app, only behind India. Had Meta gotten its way, a huge number of Brazilians would've had their finances controlled by Meta.

The photo in the article shows the kind of webbing I used to think was made by spiders. The silk strands are usually around 90-100nm, or almost 100 times thinner than human hair

I recently found out that you can get up to 3 free .eu.cc domain from GNAME, which also claims that you can renew for free when its within 90 days of expiring. So I got one to check it out.

Obviously, the next step is making one of my local machines act as the target destination for any queries to the address, so it becomes accessible for the wider web. I'm not entirely sure, however, what to configure on GNAME (there's the option to setup A and AAAA records, which I suppose I should just point to my IP, but there's also CNAME, TXT, NS, SRV and what configurations/programs my local server (rPi 3) needs to have running besides a webserver (Apache2 or Nginx)

My intent is to have it run a single-user fediverse server, possibly friendica, as it seems to have the best support for seeing all sorts of APub posts. If that proves too heavy for my old pi, I'll try one of the lightweight APub alternatives

I know I'll also need to do some configurations on my router, so I'd appreciate help on this, too.

It's something that I often wondered. Acetone, even diluted as nail polish remover, does a great job of cleaning prints and, unlike IPA, doesn't leave the piece with an awful smell.

Is it mainly price, or are there other reasons?
