You game for 12 hours per day every day as a student?

As another commenter pointed out, the lower population of Lemmy is a feature not a problem.

And when an instance gets too big, smash that block button.

Thanks for pointing that out, I knew something was off but couldn’t pinpoint it.

I really enjoyed MDK/MDK2 as a kid. I don’t know any modern platformers to comment on quality now vs then.

 

Hello! I would like the ability to disable user’s animated icons and all playing animation unless I tap on it (gifs/videos playing). The motion is distracting and makes it difficult for me to get immersed in the conversation.

I think one or more toggle switches, or honor the iOS accessibility preferences (Accessibility->Motion->Reduce Motion) would be great. Essentially it would display a placeholder with a “play” triangle, in the center, pointing to the right to indicate a playable video. Except user icons would just display a still without ability to play (except when navigating to the user profile and viewing their image explicitly.

Anyways just some things to think about, actual implementation is up to you. Thanks for consideration!

My understanding is some parts have to be done sequentially even though the parts themselves are multithreaded, now the different parts can all be done in parallel.

What about homebrew games? I thought xbox had something like that.

What’s with the xbox comment? Why can’t it be officially supported?

Oh right. Reading is hard lol…

I tend to agree with this as other Lemmy apps work just fine with iOS lockdown mode such as mlem and memmy.

Alt+1-9 will select the tabs in order. I don’t know how to do any others. You can also cycle through them with ctrl+tab for cycling to the right and shift+ctrl+tab to cycle left.

I’m not sure if the first thing works on Windows but works on Linux (KDE/xfce)

That article is for lay-persons and really an awareness article I surmise. If you’re technical you are likely already aware of the security concerns with jacascript.

Malicious javascript seeks to bypass security controls. It’s one of the reasons NoScript is a thing. It could be a malware loaded from an ad. Biggest reason for adblockers imo.

I submitted a new post on a community but it doesn’t show up and it’s not in my post history. Am I banned on the community or is there a bug on Voyager? I also can’t see any of my post history on the Voyager app…

 

My childhood favorite game. I remember bugging my father to download Chex Quest 2 from his workplace as Internet wasn’t available at home at that time…and by the time it was, I had moved on. I still break this one out to scoop or zorch some Flemoids. Music wasn’t bad either.

Looks like they have a comic, tunes, and an HD version (available on Steam)…What are you waiting for? Get to zorchin’!

 

Hey all,

Got a soundbar that supports HDMI ARC or optical audio. Optical audio requires I control with its remote but I’d rather only use the TV remote but all of my videos are encoded AAC which HDMI ARC doesn’t support. Is there a way to do a device specific custom profile to transcode audio to DTS for example?

 

With all the noise on lemmy, spam, and political content I have no interest in, the thought occurred to have blocklists similar to adblock lists. Has anyone looked into this before, is it already a thing? Any thoughts on that?

 

Hi all,

I have been re-encoding using handbrake’s presets (Matroska hevc 480p/1080p) and results are good for the most part, some issues here and there. I started trying out ffmpeg with cuda and hevc_nvenc and p7 preset. Video quality looks way better but audio is very bad. I am using aac 128k and the audio is very compressed and quite frankly hurts my ears. I started looking into the handbrake options and there’s auto pass through and stereo downmixing, etc. I tried reading the ffmpeg documentation but there is a lot there and I’m not really sure what I’m doing.

tldr; Anyone have tips on getting good quality audio encoding (aac) from my bluray rips?

 

avast ye hardies!

Anyone have experience with ripping HDDVDs? My bluray rw and dvdrw will not recognize that a disk is even in the drive. Bad disk or do I need a special disk reader?

 

Hello, with the recent NSO hack in the wild I thought I would give lockdown mode a try. Turns out wefwef/voyager doesn’t want to play nice for some reason. I am posting this from memmy app. Would you mind taking a look into the problem? Thank you!

With all of the language models (ChatGPT, LLaMa, Bard, etc.) popping up, I wanted to rewatch Voyager due to the character development of the doctor and Seven to reawaken my imagination.

I found first season available (with ads) but can’t stream other seasons except on something called Paramount+. I read through the fine print and won’t ever be subscribing to that abusive service. Anyone know where else I might be able to stream the show? Looks like about $80-90 to buy the complete series… ugh
