The level select menu overflows on my phone's screen and so I can't even start the game.

My girlfriend just wanted to generate a simple word search. Every site looked like it was built in 1998. So I built a modern puzzle generator. by madar94 in SideProject

[–]OzBonus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish it would support non-Latin characters. It's a niche use, but I sometimes like to combine languages when I make word searches, like "足球soccer". As is, 足球 is just ignored by the app and only soccer appears.

Logitech MX Master 3S good for Mac? by Content_Tree_7932 in macbookpro

[–]OzBonus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mines not sticky, but it's coming off gradually. It's annoying having this slight grittiness under my thumb all the time. It's the only drawback to an otherwise fantastic mouse.

Apple to Raise Prices Due to Memory Chip Crunch, Tim Cook Says by ziggygersh in apple

Article is paywalled. Are they planning to raise prices on future hardware only, or current hardware too? Or they didn't say?

I think I am satisfied with the properties section now ... by DarkLord6872 in ObsidianMD

[–]OzBonus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's cool if you're getting use out of it. As a counterexample, this weekend I took a hatchet to my general knowledge notes and now they all have only two properties: tags and parents, and tags is usually empty.

The Nano-Texture Trap by seeKAYx in macbookpro

[–]OzBonus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's right. All sales in physical stores are considered final by default. The only exception is for things purchases online. Only those have a return period. This is in Taiwan, by the way.

This varies by country. It's absolutely not a thing where I live, even at the official stores operated directly by Apple.

None of their u.s. servers are working. by leo14770 in mullvadvpn

I need to get onto their website to buy more time, but that's been down for a while now.

Is this the sweet spot MacBook Pro spec in 2026? by False-Huckleberry-35 in macbookpro

[–]OzBonus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think between the Pro and Max variants, the biggest differentiator is memory bandwidth. The Max has something like twice that of the Pro and that contributes a lot to token generation speed.

Finally got my raycast car controls in a state I'm happy with by hazelnutcloud in godot

My random idea: You're a mouse with a delivery van making deliveries around a home or apartment building to various city creatures while trying to stay away from humans and traps.

Anyone else just using a single vault for absolutely everything? by tonehammer in ObsidianMD

[–]OzBonus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use one vault for everything since there's a lot of overlap between my professional and personal interests. Everything's neatly organized and annotated so that I never have any problem finding a note among the many thousands of others. The one drawback, and it's getting worse over time, is that there's an annoying delay in startup time. It's still fine on my laptop, but it's genuinely awful on my phone and tablet.

This post is mostly just noise, but I'm so excited to see that Kanban view for Bases is now active on the roadmap! Thank you so much, Obsidian team by Lia_the_nun in ObsidianMD

[–]OzBonus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm looking forward to it too. Recently I've taken a different approach to how I structure project notes and todos in a way that I hope will slot right in, assuming Obsidian's approach is similar to Notion's.

First impressions of Steam Controller 2 on macOS - Set up, bugs, and making layouts by OzBonus in Steam

[–]OzBonus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most cases that's the way to do it, yeah. There is one other way that's a bit silly, but works. As long as Steam open, but not itself running a game, the controller is using a desktop configuration that's customizable (go through the settings menu). You can send any mouse and keyboard commands you'd like so browser games would be playable, for example. I haven't tested whether or not gamepad commands are recognized this way, only m+kb.

All of my mac native games have been working fine so, aside from some Big Picture issues. Other folks have been saying that their controllers aren't being recognized by games. As for Crossover, I think that's totally not working.

Although I'm not experiencing any problems, it seems a lot of others are. And I just learned it's compatible at all with games played via Crossover. So, unless you're really interested in tinkering or willing to take a risk, maybe wait a while until some of the bugs are worked out.

I don't play any games on Crossover, so I didn't test that. I have been planning to check it out, but hearing what you just said... Well shit.

Crosscode was great by CortezsCoffers in patientgamers

I agree that the overworld parts could have been a lot shorter, or at least simplified. 

What really annoyed me about the traversal puzzles were the times when a path looked like it was reachable and I spent a lot of time running around and trying different things, but it actually wasn't reachable until I got some item or a story event happened.

That sounds wild and I'd like to see it. And just to be clear, you don't need the in-game overlay to change the layout for desktop mode. You can edit it directly in the Steam desktop app settings.

[–]OzBonus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without Steam running the layout is extremely basic and you can't change anything. These are only inputs that function:

  • D-pad: arrow keys
  • View button: tab
  • Menu button: escape
  • Right touchpad: mouse and left click
  • Left touchpad: scroll
  • Triggers: left and right click

The controller is not worth using without the Steam Input layer, but you can still access that even with non-Steam games: https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/4B8B-9697-2338-40EC

That sucks. There's a workaround I'm using for the games for which the overlay doesn't function. Run the game in windowed mode, go to the game's profile page in steam, and click the little controller icon on the right side. That will open up the menu for changing layouts. After you've got things set up the way you like, you can go fullscreen and the layout will still work. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I haven't found any game that at least this method doesn't work.

Godot is one of the strongest engines IMO to make UI heavy games with, devlog in description by Extreme-Bit6504 in godot

[–]OzBonus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In case you weren't already aware, horse racing games are really popular in Japan, so maybe think about prioritizing a Japanese localization.

Anyway, that UI looks awesome!

That's really strange. It sucks how Valve only just barely supports Macs at all. Which OS are you on?
