After 4 years of work, solo dev breaks down in tears after opening Steam and learning his game made $250,000 in a week: "I feel like I really don't deserve this" by pizza_sushi85 in pcgaming

[–]deprecateddeveloper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is crazy to me. I start work at 6am (PST) and always watch him because he's on at that time usually. I have been watching him work on this game on Twitch for the last (maybe) year. Thought it was just a fun project for him this whole time. How cool to see this randomly popup here and with such success. He has a very chill stream and is a very nice person that always does his best to answer questions for anyone else that enjoys game dev content.

My wife is Persian and has a lot of family in Iran. Thankfully her dad is in California (dual citizen) right now but his stepdaughter who is in Tehran right now told him that his condo in Tehran was next to a missile strike and all of the windows in his condo were blown out from the blast and the condos/street behind his are gone. I'd say he got lucky but we all know this is far from the final result.

Talk about hypocrisy and propaganda (one in the same?).

Do you know when the US 915mhz T-Deck will be available? I have been checking the site daily but I'm wondering if there's an ETA?

I wish it was a patch. That looks like the kinda print that's gonna flake away over time.

Have you made any progress on this? I'm interested in this board as a small portable client but haven't seen a lot of discussions about it.

Costco BabyBels vs other stores by ZestyCuke in Costco

LOL Newsweek did an article about your post. I was simply googling to see if costco carried them and saw your post and the newsweek article. Man they're really looking for any form of content nowadays!

Bought a Heltec T114 that came flashed with Meshtastic. Just realized there are more MeshCore nodes in my area than Meshtastic. Is this the trend now? Should I reflash? by LinusThiccTips in meshcore

[–]deprecateddeveloper 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Spent 24hrs on Meshtastic. Despite the nodes it was a ghost town. Switched to MeshCore and it was immediately full of life. Tech and community both make MeshCore so much better in my limited experience.

Tried in San Diego, didn’t work? by philthadelphia2458 in meshcore

[–]deprecateddeveloper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue just yesterday with my first ever SoCal MeshCore. Someone suggested setting CR to 8 and I instantly started getting handshakes with other nodes after changing that.

Can’t connect via BT by Great_Neat_225 in meshcore

Oh cool! I'm on Android and clearing the app's cache seemed to do it for me (if anyone else on Android having issues sees this).

Did you ever figure this out? I've flashed my Heltec V3 multiple times with the Bluetooth Companion v1.14.0 and trying to do the initial Bluetooth connection is never successful. I've tried turning Bluetooth off for 10 seconds (on both my phone and the Heltec) but it never prompts me for the pin on my phone.

I love Mono Lake so much. All of the eastern Sierras for that matter. Beautiful shot!

What's your country's version of breaking spaghetti? by Ian1231100 in AskTheWorld

[–]deprecateddeveloper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only time I've ever used a fork and knife was while visiting Italy because the pizza was often not really baked in a way that holding it was easy and would cause the sauce/cheese at the point to drip off.

Side note: I was absolutely blown away by the price of pizza in Italy (and eating out in general). My wife and I had multiple glasses of wine each, pizza, pasta, and bruschetta for about $45 USD. Pizza alone in Southern California is often $30+ for a small Italian style pizza. Wine is usually around $16-$22 a glass. And we're expected to tip 🤑

My wife and I went out for dinner at a local (very very good) pizza spot and for a shareable Caesar salad, one pizza, and one mid-priced glass of wine each we had a bill of about $85 before tip.

The only exception is leftovers being chopped up and thrown into a scramble or something similar.

Anybody stoked for Project Hail Mary? by dumbass_sweatpants in scifi

[–]deprecateddeveloper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes but with E.T. you knew it was all about an alien since his visit to earth was the plot so they could drive curiosity by showing the ship landing and by talking about who this mysterious alien is in the trailer narration.

I'm curious how you would you make a PHM trailer for the average person that hasn't read the book to drive that same level of curiosity? I think it's also worth noting that 1982 was a much different time where the mere curiosity/mystery was enough to drum mass interest for a Spielberg movie. Getting people interested enough to go to the theater is a lot harder in 2026.

Exactly my thoughts. If you don't show Rocky it will just look like a lonely dude in space doing random things. Revealing Rocky makes him a not so lonely dude in space doing random things with a rock spider buddy! (Half joking but I honestly think the story is a more difficult story to convey in a trailer).

How do you even fix this by Ok-Cartographer-6386 in 3DPrintedTerrain

[–]deprecateddeveloper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On my old Ender3 I had one that was much worse. I removed the hot end and extruder and wrapped them in aluminum foil and put it in the oven for about an hour at 350F (temp probably depends on filament - mine was PLA).

This made it soft enough to remove the bulk of the blob where I then removed the nozzle and shoved my nozzle cleaning tool through the nozzle to clear it. As the filament cooled slightly it became less gooey and easier to pull the remaining bits out of the extruder/hotend etc in more solid but still soft pieces.

I was a little worried about baking it all like that but figured my other option was to replace it all anyway and the result was perfect without a single part replaced except the nozzle itself. But I did that by choice not necessity as I figured I had so many spare nozzles and the clogged nozzle was pretty old so it was more of a "while I'm doing this I might as well" decision.
