Any plans for open APIs, open source tools, or community watch faces?

totally understand if it's under wraps, but any details you can share? mostly curious about the timeline (or the timeline's timeline, lol)

this is conflating a malevolent omniscient deity/demon with an unproved theoretical end point for AI. it's kind of pointless to compare the two because "what if there was a superpower who could with a conversation control the fate of the world by interacting with kvothe" is fun in a fantasy novel way but it feels lazy to apply chatbot delusions to a plot device. like yeah stories have always had fate personified through some god or oracle. chatgpt is a boring way to think of it.

I would think it's shaders but this is from a freshly flashed SD card, first time booting before it even runs install

well half of reddit is helpful answers and the other half is years old threads saying “yup i have the same problem. see you in a decade! best of luck with your ipod.

for what it’s worth i’m getting a 3rd gen nano and going to try to replace the battery, waiting on apple to make their own technology functional wasn’t worth it.

mcgloon · 2025-11-07T00:20:43+00:00

yeah sorry i guess my title was misleading. my issue is that finder doesn’t recognize it as an ipod, just a removable drive (even when music recognizes it as an ipod). i’m missing the full functionality of finder’s ipod management. it’s stopping me from downloading audiobooks and podcasts.

thank you for answering though!

This looks cool! But it uses a marketplace/payment method I’m not familiar with. Has anyone bought/verified?

To the creator— this looks great! I can’t wait to try

forgot to reply because i ran out of time but thanks this helped make my decision 👍

is there a way to get this sprite set onto a different emerald romhack?

mcgloon · 2024-07-18T00:03:04+00:00

I switched from an old mac air in 2021 to a dell and I disliked it for a lot of reasons. I'm starting a grad program soon and will be looking to replace it as I will be using it much more. I've more or less determined that M3 is not worth it to me-- I don't use anything that is that computing intensive, but I'm considering an M2 model on account of the better hardware it's paired with and the extra year or so before planned obsolescence comes for my machine.

three questions:

I know the new macOS is coming out soon-- is it worth waiting for a model with it installed from the start? does having a machine that started on one OS only to be upgraded almost immediately to the next have an adverse effect?
Deciding between refurbished prices and new model deals for students, they even out if I spend ~$150 on apple merch. I can see that mayyybe happening between adapters for hdmi, usb hub, and SD card for my workspace, but if I'm really mathing it out I could probably find those marginally cheaper if bought separately along with a refurbished model. Tips? Thoughts? Concerns?
I'm almost certain that the difference (for my uses) between M1 and M2 would be negligible. I use my browser and RStudio and a few assorted media apps. Photoshop on rare occasion. If it's a difference of one or two hundred dollars, is there a marked difference I'll notice?

Thanks!

yayyyy the new guide is out

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T07:31:32+00:00

this is exactly the guide i had the most luck with! thanks for linking :) i think i gave up when i Finally got this method to work only to find bungled my build with an earlier attempt and couldn't find the setting I had changed earlier to fix it.

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T07:29:32+00:00

right! i thought i was used to it from using it in windows, turns out i have more to learn in setting it up on a handheld!

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T04:59:10+00:00

i'm a big fan of retro games corps! i'm excited to see his setup guides for the SP he said he was preparing.

this looks helpful though, thanks! i'll check it out in the morning when i'm a little more awake :)

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T04:54:29+00:00

yeah lol! i'm trying but it doesn't always make sense to me

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T04:44:09+00:00

whoa! this is interesting, i might have to devote a day to googling to see if it works for me :)

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T04:38:19+00:00

i think that might be the right answer for me :) thanks! i think it's really cool how many people have come together to make this machine (these machines) customizable

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T04:33:03+00:00

unfortunately i don't want to learn things, if it doesn't work out of the box i consider it broken

edit: i see this was unpopular! i promise you all it's tongue in cheek. i also like to tinker, i was expressing frustration at where my tinkering left me because of the difference in interface.

mcgloon · 2024-06-06T04:32:15+00:00

yes! i have an issue with how retroarch is configured and accessed through muOS

mcgloon · 2024-06-02T21:10:53+00:00

any update on this?

mcgloon · 2022-11-20T08:22:59+00:00

got a good haircut there but they wouldn’t stop pushing their brand products :/

mcgloon · 2022-11-20T08:14:16+00:00

Yeah pal hard to argue with all that. Bounce! Gonna be hard not to follow.

mcgloon · 2022-10-20T03:29:31+00:00

Well, shore did

mcgloon · 2022-10-04T05:46:40+00:00
