I was curious so I gave it a spin. It's just a literal port that runs in an snes emulator. It's got a super nintendo logo at the start but everything else appears to just be a 1:1 port. Not sure the value in this but would be cool if someone used this as a base to update the assets.
Maybe a new upload then. The one in their tweet was taken down
It was on archive org and it was already taken down. Only a matter of time for Patreon as well.
Edit, the link changed. Here's his Archive page with all the his work: https://archive.org/details/@infidelity

You just aim a ball and clear blobs before they reach the top. No timer. I usually play this with my screen split to YouTube.
You'll have to make a recording or something, not about to sign up for this
Yea this is pretty much it. I meet online weekly to play something with some friends, after the third or fourth session I was just completely done with the game. It doesn't feel like there's a whole lot to do after you've tried every mission type.
I remember a comedian making a joke about this. It's like getting a signal from your dog to come out to the back yard.
Don't forget DVD playback. Most people by the year 2000 still only had VHS. DVD players were prohibitively expensive at the time so a lot of people were holding out. PS2 had DVD and cost about half the price of dedicated players. I know a lot of homes bought them purely as a movie machine.
I bet if Dreamcast had DVD playback the history of the Dreamcast would've been very different.
Penny, morrowind and dishonoured are a really solid bundle alone for $20
He's mentioned somewhere (believe me I'm an internet enthusiast) that he doesn't like writing, he's just a master at adaptation. And I get that. Being really good at visualizing a story well is really hard.
Yea when it came out it got a lot of attention because us in the N64 camp were starved for a good RPG. Unfortunately it was just a lot of nothing.
I really like it. It's pretty simple but the small city feels dense and fun to explore. Reminds me of something you'd find on the Dreamcast. If you have gamepass give it a shot.
Nah, you can always rely on the Hilbert Hotel for a good night's rest. Your room is down the hall, just keep walking, you'll find it.
Looks like there's a box of YoYo Balls and Pogs. Can I have a go?
Snitches get GoFundMe to pay for stitches
"Take this code and give me jest tests with 100% coverage. Don't describe, don't scaffold, full output."
Saves me hours.
Funny, it's a word I've never seen before but immediately knew what it meant
Pixar hasn't had Pixar money in a long time. Their last huge success was Toy Story 4 and that was 5 years ago. Of course you can blame Disney+ for a lot of that.
Holy shit, yes. That's a game I haven't thought about in a while.
Basically as the title says. We have semi frequent power outages where I live. The noise machine in my daughter's room goes out and wakes her up. If I were to buy a USB powered one, plug it into a power bank like one of those 10000ma ones you get for charging cell phones, would it have continuous power. Basically like a cheap UPS

We were traveling through Malta in 2018 when I came across this. According to the locals it had crashed up on shore about a month prior. They didn't know what to do so they tied it off until they could come up with a solution. My personal favorite of the photos I took. The two guys below were exploring the ship. Thought it would ruin the shot but it ended up adding some good scale.
I'm thinking about moving my PC out to the living room and streaming back to my office when I need to. I've used a number of moonlight clients with mixed results.
Apple TV and Xbox Series X, terrible with massive lag.
Android with Nvidia shield pro or Chromecast with Google TV, not bad but not amazing,
MacOS client on MacBook pro and Google pixel 6 pro over wifi 6, perfect feels like it's on the same machine.
Before I go through all the effort of setting up the Raspberry Pi 4 just wondering if anyone has any first hand experience on the quality of the stream
Most of my collection is just the movie rips of just the video that play fine in Plex or Jellyfin. I've got a couple of full disc rips though that have the menus and features and all just like you would if you put the disc in. I can open these in VLC on my computer by choosing the folder.
My living room setup is an Apple TV as the primary streaming device but I also have an Nvidia Shield pro and Google TV Chromecast.
Is there any way to stream these over the network into some kind of app on any of these devices?
EDIT
After some looking around Kodi might be able to do what I want. Going to investigate further.
EDIT 2
The Kodi repo with the required addon (HEVC kodi bluray addon) seems to be down, maybe permanently :/ Still looking for a solution
Ok so here's the rules
- I just bet on red every time
- I start with 1 dollar
- every time I lose, I triple my previous bet
- every time I win I restart
I'm going to simulate 10 games
- Game 1 - Bet $1 Lose
- Game 2 - Bet $3 Lose
- Game 3 - Bet $9 Win $18
- Game 4 - Bet $1 Lose
- Game 5 - Bet $3 Lose
- Game 6 - Bet $9 Win $18
- Game 7 - Bet $1 Lose
- Game 8 - Bet $3 Lose
- Game 9 - Bet $9 Lose
- Game 10 - Bet $18 Win $36
In this simulation I'm losing at a rate of 70%. In reality the lose rate is closer to 52%. I put in $54 but I'm walking away with $72, basically leaving the building with $18.
Another example. Let's pretend I walk in with $100,000 to bet with. I lose my first 10 games and win the 11th.
- 1 lose
- 3 lose
- 9 lose
- 27 lose
- 81 lose
- 243 lose
- 729 lose
- 2187 lose
- 6561 lose
- 19683 lose
- 59049 win $118098
$88573 spent out of pocket, $118098 won
Walk out with roughly $29525.
I get most casinos won't let you be that high but it's a pretty extreme example anyway, the likelyhood of losing 10/11 games on 48% odds is really unlikely.
So help me out here, what am I missing?
This feels like a common courtesy I don't see enough, particularly the second point. In a conversation circle, always try to keep your side vision open to people trying to find their way in. It can be awkward to try and find your own way in so giving them a spot tells them they're included then drop a quick brief on the conversation "We're talking about pineapples on pizza, good or bad" gives them context to jump in immediately.
I'm looking for some game recommendations. I feel like a ton of these games exist but they're riddled with IAP. I don't mind paying a little to buy the game. I have the play pass but so many of these games are active involvement and landscape orientation. I like to have an extra hand free and landscape requires both hands on. But really want passive engagement. Like as soon as I stop playing the game is waiting for me. Example games:
Polytopia
Magnet Balls
Free Cell
Threes
Card Thief
Knights of Pen and Paper
Games like Slay the Spire (but portrait). Although I've never really found a Slay the Spire-like that didn't feel like a watered down version of STS
