Shameless plug for my own GBC game, it’s very kid friendly blue-dog-games.itch.io/bouncy-bouncy

I had an NC100. I used to write BASIC games on it. Fun device, very limited obviously but super cute with a nice keyboard. Good times

- Comment on The Man Who Killed Google Search 6 months ago:
I’ve been enjoying Kagi, although it also proxies google and others, and you have to pay for it, and I was dismayed to read on Lemmy recently that the CEO may be a sea lion. So yeah, the search for good search continues I suppose

I was pleasantly surpsied by how much audio has improved on Linux when I came back to it this year with Ubuntu studio. Reaper or Bitwig are the way to go. Plugins are the main problem, bridging works OK apparently, but there are some decent native options too
- Comment on What Amazon Kindle? Here's an Open Source eBook Reader 11 months ago:
Yeah, you don’t even have to jailbreak it, you can just install it. It’s a bit fiddly but not too bad github.com/…/Installation-on-Kobo-devices
Koreader is available from the Play store if you have an android phone, you can try it out first. Its very customisable, I spend hours tweaking the settings because that’s my idea of fun 😂

I’ve got a Hisense A5 and reading is surprisingly nice on it. Although this looks even smaller?
Also regarding the overall idea - just get a Kobo and put Koreader on it, then sideload any book format you like.

Hmm worrying. I switched to Fastmail too and use a lot of their ‘masked emails’. No problems so far, touch wood

Got it, thanks. Still a cool project but I’d love a Pocket

So is this pretty much an Analogue Pocket with a less good screen?
- Comment on Suella Braverman wants to restrict homeless people from using tents. 1 year ago:
She professes to be a Buddhist. She may be the first practising Buddhist to hold high office in the UK. I guess it shouldn’t be such a surprise given the number of cruel ‘Christian’ politicans
- Comment on Will people respond better if you say you're teetotal, or straight edge? 1 year ago:
I actually think it can be harder to communicate moderation. I have a friend who’s a recovering alcoholic and when he says “I don’t drink” he rarely gets any pushback.
Whereas I do drink sometimes, and even get drunk very occassionally, but can go weeks without it. Some people have trouble with the idea that I drank one time they saw me but are choosing not to the next time. It’s a bit like the way some straight or gay people can’t wrap their heads around the concept of bisexuality… “which one are you? Straight or gay? Teetotal or drinker?” 😂
