  • I like being able to debug stuff.

    Windows nowadays does not provide any meaningful logs, so everyone in their forums and such is just guessing around why things won’t work.

    DirectSound libraries are missing? Install them via a sub menu of a sub menu of a really small text in the settings, wait 20 minutes for a „loading bar” telling you nothing, and guess what problem it had when it just told you no.

    Aside from all the bugs like the menu bar just not opening and preview updates being shown with the same size as regular updates (great because older people will just install those updates too)




  • English Is a bad language for this.

    Julica wakes up would be julica felébred

    Instead, its actually julica wakes up as in julica ébreszt, or „julica weckt” in german.

    Sue wakes up others.

    Also the - does not make sense here, as the „title” is the verb what she is doing in that comic, not a title as an julica - a felébresztés, like these bad German names for movies like alien - the creature from outer space







  • Ich bin Jugendleiter seit ein paar Jahren, und was manche Kinder da anstellen ist wirklich unter aller sau

    Its not all kids, but its always kids, sozusagen

    Vor jedem essen lassen wir die Kinder (so 5-10, Kleingruppe) ne Stunde lang nur spiele spielen und rumlaufen (abgesehen vom Hauptprogramm natürlich). Trotz dessen schaffen die es nicht, sich für 15-20 Minuten beim essen hinzusetzen und ihre Finger bei sich zu lassen. Es wurde teilweise wirklich so laut, dass man schreien musste, um sich gegenseitig zu verstehen.

    Such in 2er Gruppen schaffen sie es nicht in einen Friedhof zu gehen (Aufklärung) ohne dass eine von ihnen vor einem Haufen Rentnern 67 schreit.

    Ich habe zwar persönlich noch keine Kinder (außer Kleinkinder und Kindern in normalem ton) treffen dürfen, aber ich würde verstehen, zB für ein date lieber in ein Kinderfreies lokal zu gehen.


  • market for a low specs/low price handheld for 2D retro-style games

    Its called an android emulator.

    Those who have the money would rather go for a real retro console

    Those who don’t probably do not have the money to buy all those cartridges with only 1 game on them, and will just use their phone or pick up a cheap android tablet

    And for the retro-modern niche there are emulator handhelds for very cheap

    So, basically the target audience is people who:

    • don’t have the money to buy a real retro console + games
    • have a problem with emulating/ripping the games themselves
    • want to pay full price for retro games (even if you take the price for steam, they are going to cost more due to the hardware
    • don’t want any QoL like with emulator handhelds

    Its the most sub average you can get.

    It works, but the package maintenance is sub par, with some apps being years old, the ui does not allow a user to have more advanced options, like the updates executable just being a loading bar instead of something fully featured like KDE discover, etc
