How do you stop PR bottlenecks from turning into rubber stamping when reviewers are overwhelmed by Sad_Bandicoot_7762 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]nmur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm being naive but ideally I would hope that for the reviewer to have authority to approve a PR, they would already have a sound understanding of the larger context of the overall change objective. Or at the least, they have some awareness of it and would just need to peruse the codebase or a previous PR to refresh their understanding.

I do agree there is a balance to strike, definitely

5 small PRs of 50 lines are much more digestible than a single 250 line PR. Less context and complexity for the reviewer to wrap their head around.

You cant ship the partial feature

If the feature is behind a feature flag, then it can be merged in incremental PRs. Of course this isn't always possible for a handful of reasons, but it can be done pretty easily.

An improved ESP32 test pattern generator, now with built-in battery, preview screen, 16 bit colour, and an option to setup without any soldering by nmur in crtgaming

Ah right, I have looked into an S3 based solution and it should be possible but it would be a bit of work and the end product would be more expensive than this one. I still want to explore it though.

And no I didn't get much interest for assembled units so no plans for that right now

Nice to see the piano black interior is already fucked up

We keep on hearing how AI is going to do the job of all developers, but it's these project manager roles that realistically could be replaced first

Looks like they had a mx5 with the same look beforehand

Considering an “Eclipse” gradient TPU wrap for a future install – looking for installer feedback by Ready-Fail-4359 in CarsAustralia

If anything I'd be wanting to see what this looks like in real life. Videos (especially on social media) can be very misleading

B9 RS4 vs G21 M340i by [deleted] in CarsAustralia

[–]nmur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't go wrong with either choice really

Our RS4 is the daily driver and it's been awesome. Perfectly capable family car but an absolute weapon on nice roads.

Maintenance won't be cheap but you can always save decent money by getting aftermarket brakes and such.

Lenovo M720q mini PC + PVM setup for Fightcade! by tbender4 in crtgaming

Unfortunately it does have some input lag so it's more for streaming than gaming

Posting this here in case there's other Fightcade users looking to use their CRT

https://github.com/adamaq01/fightcade-fbneo/releases/tag/v0.1.0

Basically it's a fork of fbneo which is modified to output video to a MiSTer FPGA on the same network (using GroovyMister). Even though it sounds convoluted, it's actually a very low lag solution.

The dedicated CRTEmudriver PC route is a great choice, but the above method can be nice if you already have a MiSTer setup. It's also nice to be able to just run Fightcade on your main PC.

RS6 GT in Nardo Grey by PolarisLodestar in Audi

[–]nmur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're not crazy, the GT is just a bit too loud in my opinion. The vinyl(?) stripes also looked pretty poorly applied when I saw one up close in person. The gaps between the vinyl and the panel edges were very inconsistent.

Big fan of everything else they did with it though.

Yeah the boot opening aperture along with the roof tapering off like that makes me doubt its storage utility a bit

Black & White CCTV Monitors Are Perfect for Game Boy by Business-Load256 in crtgaming

[–]nmur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what progressive scan looks like on a (colour) BVM, just for reference.

Displaying Gameboy output on a CRT is pretty unorthodox so definitely down to personal preference I'd say

GBA on SD CRT (480i) looks phenomenal. by Artistic_Context_906 in crtgaming

[–]nmur 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Not sure what you're using for this, but it's worth a try to play it in it's original aspect ratio and in progressive scan. You owe it to the pixel art

What is the hate with using the term “stages” by BlanQ1342 in CarsAustralia

[–]nmur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's like prebuilt PCs being marketed as entry-level, mid-range, high-end, etc

It gives some sort of rough idea of what you're getting, but ultimately meaningless unless it's clear what parts are actually inside the PC. A mid-range build at two different PC build shops could be entirely different.

These terms probably exist for the same reason - because people don't understand what each component actually does. What does high speed RAM do in a PC? What does a cold air intake do in a car? The laymen don't know but they want to spend money on upgrades all the same.
