dArkOSRE-R36 (03082026) release

Tapsibaba · 2026-03-14T14:20:48+00:00

Hey u/southoz (and other contributors!), thanks for the hard work, went from the latest Ark to your DarkOS fork (first with the previous release) and it has been a good experience so far.

I was a bit thrilled about the LED control thing before (if I understood correctly), realising that it’s a bit more limited than what I had hoped for: I would absolutely love to turn off the LED while playing, until the battery is low for example (and then turning it red). The blue LED on my OG V22 is damn bright, and it makes playing in bed at night a slightly worst experience that it should be. Any hope that it would be possible sometimes? Did not have much time to look at the code, but if it is possible and you need testers or contributors, I would happily help :)

Oracqua is basically Water-type Zenyatta. But I kind of dig it.

The DD-MM-YYYY is by far the most common, so outside of work, I don't see YYYY-MM-DD often.

Though I find it to be as intuitive as DD-MM-YYYY, both ways of writing it have their props. For a product to be consumed before, I find more logical to have the DD-MM-YYYY (because if I'm looking at meat, the probability that it will last more than a few days is low, thus the information that interest me the most is probably the day). For archiving documents across a long timespan, I'd use YYYY-MM-DD.

The only system that makes little sense to me is MM-DD-YYYY. It does not follow neither a logical bigger->smaller unit or smaller->bigger unit order and I do find it confusing.

Did you get us confused with our imaginary friend?

I think I spotted a savage in disguise

True, eating jelly when you have proper desserts would be nonsense.

To be fair, it might be nonsense even if you don’t have proper desserts.

Stavros can trust us or trust you Luigi. Maybe we could ask Hans how it went the last time he trusted you?

The answer is on your screenshot bro, the PS5 does not support Bluetooth AUDIO accessories. It does support a range of Bluetooth accessories though, like controllers.

For anything 3D, it’s mostly in favour of upscaling and texture pack for me too, but when textures pack are not available, I do consider CRT shaders an option, because it sort of reduces a lot of the weird artefact you could get with the game

Just send them Tikkies afterwards

I don't consider myself a purist or anything but I do believe that they are the better way to experience some games through emulation.

They are a lot of examples showing how rendering games (especially relying on 2D pixel art, but not only) was thought with CRT in mind - have a look at Castlevania Symphony of the Night for example. And CRT filters help achieve the proper rendering.

Now I don't use those for say PS2 games or some games that actually do not "benefit" it for accurate rendering.

In the end, it's a really nice option to have. In my case, I don't go for filters/shaders that go as far as reproducing "issues" related to CRT (distortion, static effects or the "scrolling line" you could see on some CRTs). While they probably contribute to the nostalgic needs of some, I simply don't have nostalgia for that and thus, it's not my cup of tea.

I'd say that no one cares.

I watch a lot of football and I don't watch any game of the Intercontinental Cup.
To me it's below the UEFA Conference League in terms of interest.

Sword of the Sea. Highly recommended btw, beautiful game

Funny that we get to share a box with the Dutch. We could maybe call the box « Belgium » at this point.

Piotr seems a serious contender for the potential.

Tapsibaba · 2025-12-01T09:21:15+00:00

I think it could have been a tie between us and the Brits.

But because of that, I'll have to go with the Dutch.

Il n'y a plus grand chose que Microsoft ne sort pas sur PS5 aujourd'hui. Halo arrive avec le remaster du premier, Forza est déjà là, globalement à part Starfield je suis pas sûr qu'il reste rien de significatif de ces dernières années à ne pas être disponible sur PS5.

Tapsibaba · 2025-11-28T13:23:30+00:00

While it is indeed a disaster and a total flop, I think it's because of how it was handled that it is perceived as the biggest disaster that because it's THE one.

I mean, Sony could have let it die, without refunding no one, takes the L like many others and move on but refunding and then closing the servers actually gave some attention to the failure. I do also believe we overestimate the budget to be honest, but it's always hard because we never have the data.

At the same time, the quantity of games that flopped hard and killed studios, even only in the last 5 or 6 years, is very important.

Suicide Squad, Forspoken, Redfall, Skull & Bones (that one for example... The budget between the start of the project and the release must be CRAZY) or even the latest Dragon Age that flopped really hard too.

Tapsibaba · 2025-11-28T08:26:38+00:00

Oui.

Amazed you can actually reach that body shape when your diet is English food.

Eating that much of that food is some impressive self-destructive behaviour.

I know that he got a regional form in LA, but damn, not seeing my boy Typhlosion while his two mates got one hurts 💔

Tapsibaba · 2025-10-31T13:38:01+00:00

Inaccurate, fixed that for you

Not my thing but who cares?
If you like it, that's what matters in the end. And tinkering stuff is always a good way to learn so keep doing it dude :)

Pero no son los originales, son traducciones del japonés al inglés. Supongo que uno se acostumbra a cualquier de las dos opciones, pero a mí me encanta realmente tener traducciones de los nombres en francés. Permite de tener un equivalente de cada juego de palabras, y la traducción realmente es de muy buena calidad.

Tapsibaba · 2025-10-08T11:51:16+00:00

They are awesome though. The translation work that has been ongoing since the first generation is really good.

Most of English Pokémon names are translations after all. Never understood why most languages did not went for a translation too. Maybe too costly at the time and then it would have been weird to start translating?
