There's definitely some names I recognise from the old place here already, and I think we'll see more after the 30th.

That's great advice. Nearly 20 years ago I found a local group through my country's Go Association website, and there are a lot more thing online now.

@[email protected] have you tried https://baduk.club/map ?

From the thumbnail, I thought this was going to be a dinosaur comic.

They call them them magazines, e.g. @[email protected] is at https://kbin.social/m/wholesome or here on beehaw at https://beehaw.org/c/[email protected].

There's a rust-specific instance including [email protected]

Unfortunately, I get "This app is not available for any of your devices", even for the old Pixel XL I pulled out of my abandoned tech drawer (I can't believe it still boots!).

Ok, so they're legit and official - I wasn't sure. The 90s-style design made me think it was ok, for some reason, but a few other things gave me pause.

Is their emulator recommended, or do people use a different one?

Turrican II is the one I remember most fondly (especially how you could upgrade your gun to fire plasma(?) bolts bigger than you), but James Pond 2 was great as well.

It was so heartbreaking to fall down at certain places and drop half the tower.

Oh, and Turrican II and Desert Strike and Superfrog and those amazing demos. Many of the cracked games my dad got had better graphics+music on the crack intro than the game that followed. Good times...

How many books are we talking about here?

I imagine the devs have stats on uninstalls - I wonder what they show.

Haha, I think I just had a little rant at you there even though you were saying the same things I was saying. Bad habits... I don't think I'll be on reddit much now, hopefully enough people stay around to make this place quite active still.

It should be fine - it was busy enough before the blackout, and of course all the good apps will stop working soon, along with a bunch of essential tools for modding, etc.

I noticed maliciouscompliance appear here, welcome!

So many don't understand that the mods need those tools, and don't care about people who need the accessibility (although I suspect that argument is popular more for having the moral high ground).

[they] didn’t do anything wrong I just didn’t agree with them

And that's why it's disabled! That's not what it's meant to be for, it's meant to be for things that don't add to the conversation. If it's factually wrong then fine - downvote, but don't do it to suppress others' opinions.

I think when you're communicating, it's good etiquette to make sure people can read your post easily - your five minutes could save hundreds or thousands of people time.

That said, capitalisation isn't required, as long as it's clear. I think line breaks are more important.

I do take it as a signal that the writer might be worth listening to if they've bothered to take the care to get their thoughts and fingers in order - as opposed to some stream of conscious babble that you can read multiple times and still not sure if you've understood it.

I used to use Swype and now I use Gboard and both do capitalisation and other handy things like double space to end a sentence - maybe check your settings.

Do you use the vim plugin for VSC to keep your speedy navigation? I miss things like "select up to the next quote" but I'm not enough of a vim user to make the switch myself.

I noticed one of the Lemmy instances recommending everyone change their settings to use 'hot' by default in their site rules sidebar. Makes sense, the many instances look a lot more lively that way.

It pushed a lot of people to try Lemmy/kbin/whatever which isn't nothing. It also gave Lemmy's code a thorough stress-test! When a bunch of apps stop working at the end of the month, I think we'll see another spike.
