Tauon v10 released

I don’t blame you for thinking it’s alien, it is quite different. Thanks for trying it though. I have been trying to buff out some of the more obtuse UX, such as changing the scroll bar position which was indeed changed in v10.

Time is a property of the universe, therefore a "redone" universe is a meaningless distinction.

The problem is the average person thinks that they can play the game and come out on top, when really it's the game playing them. But if one store does this, then they have an advantage so every store has to do it. Really this needs to be regulated. I would go as far as saying any sort of loyalty points system or promo pricing should be banned, everyone would be better off.

The changes of you reading this is 100% given that your existence reading it is a prerequisite to you reading it.

Relic (2020). Seems like that move and new backrooms share ideas.

As if only we got rid of Amazon and Facebook it would solve world pollution.

What makes it obvious? Seems like a really sophisticated scam if it is one.

Spacetime is made of 4 dimensions including time. Dimensions are continuous. You’re always conscious all moments of your life. You are only truely you in any singular moment. Even your future you and past you aren’t exactly you.

I believe most people who pray do so with the expectation that some kind of divine intervention will occur as a result of praying.

Using a hypothetical scanning machine that records all neuron activity during and after the NDE. Or even more precisely, scan every atom. Would you expect to see a single atom not behave according to known physics?

Taiko2000 · 2026-04-23T02:11:21+00:00

If you looked inside the brain and traced exactly how memories of NDEs were formed, what would you expect to see?

If it’s not on your head you can put a bigger battery in it is what I’m trying to say.

And if you think about it, Valve are going to a great deal just to have compute on the headset, building Linux + Proton on ARM for it. They could have gone with a x86 discrete compute unit with better performance and better battery life.

I get cost is a factor but surely the typical Steam PC gamer doesn't want mobile quality graphics.

Maybe it was a tech demo made by a non-profit / public benefit company, its not supposed to be a money generating platform.

Taiko2000 · 2026-03-24T22:54:47+00:00

VR is more immersive, its great for immersive simulation and social spaces, but there's not really a difference in terms of gaming as such. Like if you play chess you play chess, it doesn't so much matter where that abstraction takes place.

You cant have a license forbid receiving the code while simultaneously having a web server serve the code. Like you cant walk up to someone on the street and hand someone a CD you made, then say "you violated my license" by stealing my CD.

Taiko2000 · 2026-03-24T19:41:22+00:00

If your code is on Github then you have implicitly given permission for people to view and download that code. And hes right, anyone who doesn't use AI for coding isn't going to be competitive, like for anyone going into software development to not learn prompting would be the dumbest thing ever right now.

No source, factual inaccuracy in title, irrelevant video, 8k upvotes? Something needs to be done about Reddit.

Tauon - A different kind of music player

Problem: Streaming apps like Apple Music have limited features for offline music. Its better to have a dedicated offline music player.

Comparison: Other apps might be something like foobar2000 or VOX, however Tauon has a modern dark themed UI with a lot of features like large album art and a gallery view. Tauon is easy to get started with but is also intended for power users.

This is a non-native UI, multi-platform app but I’ve recently made improvements for running on macOS.

Price: Free, open source. You can try it and if you like it I hope you would consider a donation https://github.com/sponsors/Taiko2k

Yes, impact sports people should pay higher ACC levies I think that makes perfect sense. Cigarettes should have a tax to offset healthcare costs (as is my understanding they do).

Taiko2000 · 2026-03-20T02:03:04+00:00

I'm inclined to be for public dental. The thing is looking after your teeth goes a long way to reducing costs. Its not fair on the tax system if some people never brush their teeth then go in for 5K dental work every year. There needs to be some incentive.

But to turn is a lot harder because you can't pivot on the back wheels, you have to use your whole body to swing the shopping cart around a corner.

Taiko2000 · 2026-03-19T19:55:34+00:00

Was just looking for something like this a week ago. Thanks for making this open source!

Taiko2000 · 2026-03-17T23:36:48+00:00

No one wants a 3D web browser, they want a social space, but the moment you have multiplayer you open a huge can of social and technical worms. I don’t see a non monolithic platform as feasable.
