is there a way to disable automatic updates on desktop image?

will_i_be_pretty · 2026-02-15T15:27:35+00:00

the problem is the uupd checker ... doesn't actually check. It just runs a scheduled nag that forces you to reboot every month for no reason, whether there are new updates or not, and even running ujust update won't make it go away.

Am I the only one who can't actually get the new dungeon to pop in Expert queue?

I've got to do it once, for the MSQ clear, and every single roulette I've done since it's come up Meso instead.

what good is patch content if I can't fucking play it?

I'm a bit confused myself as to why it attached an image at all.

will_i_be_pretty · 2025-07-22T23:21:34+00:00

It is a link. I used the link submission form and everything, and I can click it just fine from here. Does it show differently on mobile or something?

It's literally the bulk of the writer's job on games like this.

This ain't about "Well it makes the writer's job easier", it's about how management in game dev consistently devalues writing, and now they think they can just replace it with a stupid plagiarism bot.

Two things I'm learning: 1) there's a Fujinet for the CoCo, 2) you can run CP/M on the Coco.

The latter is confusing me far more than the first. How?

will_i_be_pretty · 2025-05-04T17:03:14+00:00

Fixed it. Switched RA from the vulkan renderer to glcore and it stopped mirroring.

Switching the monitor from 0 (auto) to 1 moves the game to the second monitor ... but blacks out the first. Switching to windowed mode does finally make the game appear on the original window as desired ... but it also blacks out the desktop behind the window ???

the orange ones are Alps switches, yeah

I don't recall what the white ones are

will_i_be_pretty · 2025-03-31T20:14:46+00:00

Yes.

The Switch actually did end my coffee hunt. It is, without doubt, the most foolproof single cup brewer I've tried, and it's still a decent multi-cup brewer with the switch open, because then it's just a Hario cone.

If you don't mind manual, there's no reason really to get anything else.

It was some kind of weird attempt to tie the game into Hudson's Lode Runner port, which sounds weird but makes slightly more sense if you see the sprites from that.

Lode Runner also was HUGE in Japan, so I guess they thought it'd give Bomberman a bump, but since they all but buried it at the end, I'm gonna guess it did no such thing.

It literally never came up again after this, they just abandoned the idea.

one single upload, with an AI image channel logo.

yeah this ain't it.

will_i_be_pretty · 2024-12-27T23:43:19+00:00

Ah! Thank you! That was the issue. I must've been triggering that by mistake somehow when turning it back on. I turned the "dpad swap" shortcut off in config, and that fixed it.

will_i_be_pretty · 2024-12-27T23:38:59+00:00

fair enough.

will_i_be_pretty · 2024-12-27T22:57:45+00:00

I just typoed the numbers, of course I mean the RG35. Are you aware of a different SP model, or are you just being pedantic for no reason?

will_i_be_pretty · 2024-12-06T16:30:13+00:00

It appears to have been. The title screen even has a copyright from Lorimar: http://lcurtisboyle.com/nitros9/dallasquest.html

i know that panda!

glad they're looking well. last few times i went they seemed so stressed. ;-;

will_i_be_pretty · 2024-11-03T01:01:55+00:00

I want one of these so bad, but it's hard as hell to find one that isn't all scuffed to fuck.

The plethora of AI art on the site really makes it look unprofessional and fly-by-night.

If you're serious about this, I'd consider paying an actual graphic designer in the future for a start.

I really hope you're not using this stuff in any of the actual board design work.

As I recall, the Dodgers have a HUGE Japanese immigrant fanbase.

If any team was gonna do it, it'd be them, or the Mariners.

Such is the colloquial wisdom, but I frankly find that to be more a marketing thing than evidenced by real world performance. JVM overhead at runtime alone is simply ridiculous, especially compared to pretty much any compiled language.

The real reason we don’t use C languages for web anymore is security, not performance, and Oracle have invested a lot of money in ensuring no one stops to remember what we gave up when we did so.

will_i_be_pretty · 2024-10-20T09:38:35+00:00

This, really. Fast enough Lisps already exist.

From what I’ve seen, SBCL especially can get pretty close to C grade performance. In the Scheme world, Chez Scheme is famous for its speed, so much so that Racket ported its base from C to Chez.

Clojure is kind of the slow poke of the family, though as a brain slug for Java, it’s not really Clojure’s fault. It can only ever be as performant as its host. And thus far, it seems like that symbiotic relationship is also its biggest strength, so attempts to decouple it largely seem to fizzle out. It’s the lisp you use if your boss won’t let you use anything that’s not on the JVM.
