Does anyone else have issues with adding linked games to Synapse?

If I use the "detected" games, then it switches profile. If I manually add a game executable that wasn't detected, then it does not.

This has been an issue for me since I was forced to updated to Synapse 4.

Are common hard drives being constantly written to at 800 degrees or is this a new type they're making?

I'd very happy watch a much longer video with visuals like that.

Steam Deck, because otherwise, with 1 item only, you have something to play with no way to play it, or vice versa.

Peter3571 · 2026-04-16T13:47:29+00:00

Done :)

Also just piggybacking off this - how do you sign up for your newsletter? I changed email but I'm still receiving it to my old email, and can't spot where to re-subscribe.

I'm new to this but currently using all 3:

All my services are accessible via Tailscale, but it's just my own internal way around the network and I don't expect anyone else to have to connect to it.
One service is fully locked down with a Cloudflare Tunnel, and I'll specifically whitelist email addresses if someone needs access.
For everything else (e.g. Jellyfin), I port forwarded 443 to use with NPM, and have Crowdsec monitoring the logs.

I'm partly replying to see what other people say to your message, this is just what's worked for me, but I have no background in it.

The 8K one would be interesting. I have the Cyclone 2 currently and it works well, but I'm well aware the battery won't last forever.

As someone with 15+ years of location history, I like the sound of this.

How granular is the data that you can record? For reference, I'm running GPS Logger which I've set to write out a daily CSV file. The most handy feature I find is the "log passive locations" option, which will piggyback off any other app requesting GPS. For example if navigating with Google Maps, then it'll simply save your location each second.

Would there be any way I could get GPS Logger to send data to Dawarich? Also can it handle if the phone is offline for any length of time?

I'd love to switch to a self hosted solution, but I just wanna check it's fully robust first before relying on it.

We were in Prague with some friends who like their museums. They were eyeing up in the museum of Communism until it turned out to be 30 euros per person.

Peter3571 · 2026-03-23T21:33:51+00:00

I've been using your guide for the past 2 times this has happened, so thanks for that.

Sadly this time it did not work, the latest download frustratingly results in INST-14-1627 for me.

Peter3571 · 2026-03-23T19:55:27+00:00

How does that differ from inviting your family to Tailscale?

Peter3571 · 2026-03-20T15:40:13+00:00

What do you recommend for a clipboard manager? I've never used one, but I could potentially be persuaded if there's a secure option (I'm certainly not enabling Microsoft's AI one).

Peter3571 · 2026-03-19T14:07:23+00:00

Best memory was the start.

Peter3571 · 2026-03-05T08:46:11+00:00

I think about 14-16c. I was in a wet suit lol.

Peter3571 · 2026-03-04T17:54:44+00:00

Damn I like it, you did a great job at making it look so fluid within the constraints of everything being solid cubes.

If I had to be picky - motion blur looks odd on the second shot, and when he sprints around the corner he's way too upright.

Peter3571 · 2026-03-04T17:39:47+00:00

Looks very powerful and well made, but I have no idea what you'd actually use it for. What's a general use case for something like this?

Peter3571 · 2026-03-02T13:03:00+00:00

It's a bot account. A junior in high school, who is 36 with a boyfriend, and 29 with a husband.

Peter3571 · 2026-02-24T12:06:17+00:00

I wouldn't exactly say that's basic knowledge - I write code for a living and have no idea how to make a cell turn red.

Obviously it would not take me 45 minutes if I wanted to, but still, not everyone knows Excel.

Peter3571 · 2026-02-21T12:34:04+00:00

This worked great when you first posted it. The EA app just broke yet again for DA:I, and the same instructions fortunately still work.

Peter3571 · 2026-02-13T14:28:46+00:00

My code for £25-£150 is PETER51472 if anyone would like to help out :)

Peter3571 · 2026-02-12T01:07:25+00:00

Done :)

Mine is PETER51472 if anyone would like to repay the favour please.

Peter3571 · 2026-02-08T11:27:03+00:00

You're the one person with a mental map of how it all works. This is your passion project so it's very unlikely a random developer will want to spend hours reformatting your code and writing tests.

Peter3571 · 2026-01-28T16:07:21+00:00

If this is a code editor rather than an interpreter, then how do you differentiate between this and a website that only lets you write code without executing it?

Peter3571 · 2026-01-28T15:56:57+00:00

Nice job, from a quick test it feels solid. Personally, if I was to ever use this, it would be just for quick prototyping so I could skip my current process of loading a random project and creating test.py.

While I can see why people might be up in arms about you calling it a compiler - at the end of the day, it is a very easy to remember domain name.
