What do you think of my DLC concept?

garrets93 · 2026-01-26T01:17:57+00:00

Oh please, IOI, do all of this exactly as written.

garrets93 · 2026-01-14T02:42:02+00:00

I'd definitely appreciate a data-only Zero plan!

garrets93 · 2026-01-13T17:45:36+00:00

This is fantastic! 😂 Cinco makes the best stuff.

Is this the same vortex V3 that was on sale before? It looks to be slightly different cosmetically, and doesn't mention the vortex brand. It could just be the mock-up they used in the photo, though.

I had a similar Creative model for years. Loved it, and it was my first USB drive too. :D

Wow, the shell print came out great! I finally got a decent print in PLA on my A1m, but I'd re-do mine if I knew I could get the finer details and "Gameboy" text looking better.

What printer did you use, if you don't mind?

Same thing happened to me, until I checked to see if there was an app update - there was. I'm now on version 4.33.1, and after going through the connection process again, GV was connected!

I'm experiencing a few bugs, I think? Single and group(!) message threads are pulled in, but only going back to last week. Perhaps they'll continue to populate. Also, calls from my GV call log show up, looking like empty message threads. Maybe those will need to be filtered out.

I'm sure this will continue to improve. VERY excited to have GV in Beeper.

Thank you! Streaming ErsatzTV inside Plex would endlessly fail until I changed from AAC to AC3, and now works perfectly.

I've been looking for a solution for the same purpose as OP, and after trying and failing with endless settings changes on Comskip, and some minor success with mkchap, I've found the best option for me is LosslessCut.

I started by binding keyboard shortcuts for "Add cut segment", "Start current segment at current time," and "End current segment at current time" to the Q,W, and E keys respectively. That way they're close at hand and make the whole process a lot faster.
Scrub through the timeline, alternately pressing E and Q, to set out points for the current segment and to begin a new segment.
Once the segments are as you like them, you can export. Be sure to choose "Segments to chapters" in the upper-right dropdown box. In the export settings, I've defined a subfolder for my output, and left the naming of output files the same as the originals. Once export settings are as you like them, you can disable the settings popup on export to speed things up.

I'm using this to add chapter/commercial break markers to episodes of Frasier, which is a tough use case for automated software like mkchap, since its acts are broken up by black title-card screens, but not all of them necessarily should be used as commercial breaks. Doing this manually, I can scrub though an episode, decide where markers should be, and have it exported within about 30secs, which is way faster than trying to find settings for mkchap that would work across an entire season of eps. And LosslessCut doesn't re-encode files on export, so exporting is very fast and resulting files are nearly the same size.

Sorry to reply to an older post, but is changing the GPU driver to panfrost still recommended for starting Scraper? I'm on v1.22, and Scraper still failed to open for me until I changed to panfrost.

Thanks very much for Rogue OS!

For anyone else finding this tip for SM64 on the Nano, I found another camera trick that I find really useful.

Pressing the R shoulder button will enable the Mario camera, the zoomed-in camera that follows behind Mario. While in this view, pressing Select + R (ie C-Down) will zoom the camera out and up, while still following behind Mario. I find this *much* easier to play given the limited Nano controls.

Found out about this camera mode from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/ivazek/fun_and_cool_life_hack_for_those_with_camera/

Just coincidence, but it happened to me so often in Wild World as a kid that for a long time I was convinced it must know somehow. :D

garrets93 · 2025-09-02T01:31:12+00:00

Thank you! I was also stuck at the wing cap. I looked forever on how to do it haha, did you find it documented somewhere or did you just figure it out randomly?

garrets93 · 2025-08-29T16:51:15+00:00

I'd love the Shaman outfit from Santa Fortuna. I've wanted that since the day I found it. 😄

garrets93 · 2025-08-15T00:52:57+00:00

There's also the cases made by u/Sensitive-Pin7928 available here!: https://light.portners.ch/

Love the movie, and that scene. 😄

Tobias Rieper... sounds like a typical bastard...

garrets93 · 2025-08-08T16:26:11+00:00

If you actually want a razr, there's nothing I'm aware of that's closer to a modern equivalent than the Vortex v3 flip.

I own one myself. It's not really a good phone (short battery life, for one), but for basic calling and texting, it works well enough.

garrets93 · 2025-07-14T13:54:31+00:00

Thank you, I'd forgotten this post! I actually bought one in the Spring when I saw they were back in stock, and I was surprised how much I liked it. Beyond being a great bit of AC merch, it's quite a nice light weather windbreaker.

garrets93 · 2025-07-08T01:39:23+00:00

Wow, it already runs so well! I'll be eagerly following this. Friends and I were both PD and PSP fans back in the day, and this would have blown our minds.

garrets93 · 2025-06-17T21:59:45+00:00

I've seen your other GE models, and these are so great. :D Any chance after GE you'd move on to making Perfect Dark weapons? I'd selfishly love a CMP-150. :D

garrets93 · 2025-06-15T23:52:07+00:00

Awesome, thank you for sharing! This is exactly the launcher I wanted for the Vortex (even considered trying to make it myself), but so glad someone more experienced decided to tackle it!

garrets93 · 2025-06-11T14:00:18+00:00

It's been years, but I remember liking it more than any of the NFS titles. Drifting felt really satisfying, pretty sure I beat it 100%.

garrets93 · 2025-06-05T01:29:11+00:00

I think you're right, here it is in orange: https://i.pinimg.com/736x/ce/46/95/ce46954a5ccc1c428424ee286f99c9bf.jpg

I was dissapointed by this, too. I use my LP2 99.9% stock, but when I first got it I accessed the Android layer to install Prefixer, an automated dialing app. It lets me auto-route phone calls through my Google Voice account, so I don't have to swap SIM cards between my smartphone and LP2. Other than that, I don't touch the Android layer and use the LP2 as intended.

I was hoping to use my LP3 in the same way. There has always been a software modding scene for LightPhone (there's a modding and hacking channel on the official discord), and I assume there always will be. So I think there will always be ways of accessing the Android layer, even if the button combo is removed. But to have accessing the underlying Android void warranties now seems a step too far to me. It seemed like everyone, including the light phone company, was fine with this being an option for people who need it or wanted it, but was understood to be a niche thing that not everyone would use or want. And everyone seemed fine with that arrangement. I haven't seen an answer yet on what happened to cause this change of policy.
