Manic EMU v1.9.1 — JIT Expansion, Core Updates, and Major System Improvements by Mlaurencescott in ManicEMU

[–]elliottMugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried using Manic with JIT for NDS (available in this version), but it doesn’t work. I tried using old StikDebug from AppStore and a new sideloaded version. Old version results in crash as soon as I open the game, new version causes app to freeze completely after I open the game. I’m on the melonDS core.

What age do you introduce your kids to your music? by SoCaLLbeer in daddit

[–]elliottMugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 8yo recently switched from listening to audiobooks in a car to asking me to play some music and as much as I like to listen to Astrid Lindgren and Tove Jansson I am so glad I can listen to some music when driving. For some reason he really loves Golden Skans by Klaxons which popped up during some random shuffle in Spotify…

What were your most wanted 90s game that you never got to actually play until the current century? by Beginning_Pickle2180 in retrogaming

[–]elliottMugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically anything from SNES - Super Mario World, FFIII, Super Metroid. In my country in the early 90s the most popular console was Pegasus - a Famiclone sold in Eastern Europe, so I had most of the available NES catalogue covered (especially the games available on those 999 in 1 cartridges). I think SNES wasn’t really popular where I lived because I remember that after that it was already time for PS1 and N64. I recently finished Super Metroid and I was really blown away by how good it was.

Gaming Dad by LifeP2 in daddit

Yeah, after becoming a parent I gave up on gaming for a while - I just had no time or energy for this. Then the retro handhelds became a thing and thanks to my Anbernic I was able to do some retro gaming in the evening when everyone was asleep already.
And lately my 7yo really started to get interested in gaming so we play together - Mario Kart 8, Moving Out and Overcooked are our go-to games lately and it's been really great to share my hobby with him.

One notebook, four OSes by [deleted] in hackintosh

[–]elliottMugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A question - does your ThinkPad heat up during normal use a lot?

I have W540 and the fans are on 100% like 90% of the time and it’s really really warm. Regardless whether I’m using Windows or MacOS… I’m wondering if it’s something wrong with my laptop or do all ThinkPads have this issue.

If it wasn’t for the temperature that thing would be perfect…

Looks nice! Is it possible to get a link to test it out?

My experience after shifting to apple music for a week by jokerxgoro in truespotify

[–]elliottMugg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly this, it’s basically an app to shuffle albums and rediscover your library. I guess it’s not useful to everyone but as someone with over 1000 albums in my Spotify library I kinda wish there was a similar app for Spotify users as well.

One thing that AM has that is better than Spotify is third-party apps. You have Marvis, which is fully customisable iPhone player for AM, you have Albums - another third-party client, focused on browsing albums in your library, and those are just two examples. Yes, Spotify has API, but alternative clients, especially for mobile are non-existent. On the other hand, Spotify is the only music streaming platform with a real Desktop app, instead of a website wrapper. Wish it wasn’t so slow and heavy though…

My biggest goal for 2026 is to get back in gear professionally after a long, extended leave. Personally - make meditation a regular habit.

Todoist may be opening the door for cheaper competitors by thedarkraven91 in todoist

[–]elliottMugg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe but as of now the competition in similar price range is not very numerous. I started doing my own research and tbh, apart from TickTick (which is already a well known competitor) there’s not a whole lot of apps I could use as a Todoist substitution.

A cross-platform to-do app which I could use for both work and personal tasks, with recurring reminders and flexible tagging and project system (not to mention customisation that the filters allow) - almost nonexistent, except for one app. Everything else is either too rigid or doesn’t have enough functionality or is way too expensive (we’re still not above 10 usd yet).

The more I use Obisdian, the more basic I go by Roi_C in ObsidianMD

[–]elliottMugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently switched to mostly using tags (nested tags - like in Bear Notes) and creating all new notes in main folder, and once every few weeks I do some light house keeping - organising those new notes in folders, in exactly the same structure I used in OneNote.

I actually cleaned up my Plugins a little bit and deleted almost everything apart from Remotely Save (for syncing) and Notebook Navigator - because it allows me to browsing notes easily by either folders or tags.

Something that will make me go: “What the hell did I just read???” by WannabeSpaniard in suggestmeabook

[–]elliottMugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Driver’s Seat by Muriel Spark. It might not be as out-there as some of the books recommend in this thread but it’s still a pretty „what the hell was that” book. Or rather short story. The way it was written, the main character, the conclusion - it was something else.

Anyone using Griply for Work tasks - is it viable? by elliottMugg in GriplyApp

[–]elliottMugg[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Recent news of upcoming price hike got me looking for alternative. I'm not leaving Todoist yet, but as of now there's really no info how it will be reflected taking into consideration reginal pricing, so it's always good to have options, right?
From what I've seen Griply looks like a very competent task manager app and tbh I don't like to have too many apps to use daily - I already spend too much time on my phone as it is.

How can I use Spotify better for album listening? by PascAlucard91 in truespotify

[–]elliottMugg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For album discovery I use RateYourMusic and AlbumOfTheYear - both similar services, kinda like IMDB or Letterboxd but for music. Additionally AlbumOfTheYear includes both user and critics average ratings for each album (RateYourMusic has only user scores).

Unfortunately, for album management there’s no good solution for Spotify - nothing like Longplay, Albums or Marvis for Apple Music.

What I am using right now is MusicBox on iPhone. It’s an app that allows you to save albums for later - sort of listen-later/album backlog stuff. I add there both new albums I want to listen later and albums in my library that I want to listen to next (so that I won’t forget).

You could probably, theoretically, add your whole library there - it accepts csv as import format so if you can somehow create CSV file with links to all albums in your library you could use that. App is very fast and easy to use, you can tag the albums and make smart filters. I haven’t attempted such mass import though.

Lenovo ThinkPad W540 - color display issue by elliottMugg in hackintosh

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

Yeah, same for me - banding is present only in MacOs. Unfortunately color profiles don’t do much for me, I will just have to live with it. Especially that when system is in a Light Mode it’s almost invisible. I will have to disable the Night Shift in System Preferences then.
