I recently dug up my vita and installed CFW out of boredom. With the built-in PSP and PSX emulation, decent retroarch support and a fair few source ports, it’s quite a respectable retro handheld these days. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend sourcing one over say, an anbernic unit, but if you already have it, it’s a fairly easy jailbreak and worth the effort IMO.

I like the idea of open world games. In practice it depends entirely on the execution, and amount of free time I have. I enjoyed the hell out of Cyberpunk 2077, but have zero desire to play GTA6 or the latest Ubisoft snoozefest.

AntennaPod. Can allegedly sync via gpodder.net or gpoddersync. Personally never got it to work quite right, but I didn’t try very hard either.

Well it was nice for a while there.

Be cool if they could integrate with gadgetbridge

+1 for Auxio. Been using it nearly a year now, no issues.

Total nothingburger. BioBank is a research dataset used for cohort studies. There’s about 500k volunteers who contributed some genetic material, demographic and lifestyle information, anthropometrics and physiological measurements. It’s mostly used to discern possible genetic and lifestyle factors for chronic disease. It’s not like they’re getting access to the whole NHS database and stealing DNA to build supersoldiers.

With a little fucking around I’m fairly sure you could do it on the phone itself via termux.

Wonder how long we’ll have to wait for the PC port.

non-cloud based approach…

You’re using cloud based storage

Pick one.

What is OneDrive if not cloud-based?

I’m old enough that I remember when 28FPS @ 320x200 was considered a target, and my vision isn’t as hot as it used to be. So long as I’m not noticing any obvious issues, I don’t really care enough to check.

Huh. How did I miss that? Some of those actually look alright. Thanks!

I did look at ClassicPress too. But apparently despite broad compatibility with WordPress plugins, activitypub specifically breaks it.

Good point! I just checked and apparently there’s several. Yet another rabbit hole to look into.

EDIT: Yeah, I looked into it, there’s actually only a few. rss2ap doesn’t support mastodon, which is kind of a deal breaker. Mastofeeder wants its own DNS to run locally, I can’t see their proxied feeds from my instance, and some sites just straight up don’t work. rss-to-activitypub seems fairly robust, but really wants its own mastodon instance and hasn’t been touched in four years.

Good suggestion but all of that seems like more hassle than I’m prepared to deal with.

The product website says the enclosure will be available as (I guess?) stl files, so that’ll be a good starting point.

Oh I remember that. Played pretty regularly for a couple years during lockdown IIRC then completely forgot about it. Shame, it was pretty fun.

Not that they won’t try, but it’s very difficult to blanket ban VPNs. There are very legitimate business reasons to use them and it isn’t necessarily easy for ISPs to distinguish between a “recreational” VPN connection and an employee VPN’ing into say, a work datacenter. Industry will kick up a massive fuss about it.

In other news, VPN subscriptions have skyrocketed in the U.S South.

Straight to the recycle bin, then.

There’s a few, mostly closer to simulation than tux kart tho. A few that I’m fairly sure are under active development:

Stunt Rally.

VDrift.

Speed Dreams. Can’t easily find the github for this one.
