Snapcast on a RasPi will handle that great

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a great time killer. There’s a Lemmy community over at !pixeldungeon@lemmy.world

Manyverse might be good for that. It’s P2P social networking that syncs whenever you’ve got internet.

The entire suite of simple mobile apps is also really good, the Notes app in particular seems useful.

Organic Maps or OsmAnd will let you download maps offline and navigate with just GPS.

Aard 2 will let you browse an entire dump of Wikipedia and Wiktionary.

I wonder if this is a sign that Lemmy has achieved real Reddit replacement status. HN occasionally links to some interesting Reddit post like it did here for Lemmy

To my knowledge, Ada doesn’t have an equivalent to Rust’s borrow checker. I also think I covered that base by specifying “mainstream” 😀

This would tie in nicely to existing library systems. As a plus, if your account ever gets stolen or if you’re old and don’t understand this whole technology thing, you can talk to a real person. Like the concept of web of trust.

One big reason Nim never really caught on is because we’ve got lots of fast-ish languages with garbage collection (like Go, which sucks a lot of oxygen away from Nim IMO). Rust introduced a new concept to the mainstream that lets you program safely without a runtime hit for garbage collection.

It’s 100% clear that Reddit is trying to kill off third party apps completely so that they can facefuck you with ads and other garbage. The Apollo dev saw the writing on the wall. I can’t blame other app devs for trying to squeeze a bit more livelihood out of this, but hopefully they’ve realized that they need to move on asap. In the end, it’s a great reminder to not build your business on someone else’s platform, even if they’re “cool”.

You might like Total Annihilation and its modern descendants, like BAR or Zero K. There’s still some micro depending on the variant, but the focus is much more heavily on macro, along with making the units smarter.

Apart from that, the Civ games are turn-based, but scratch a similar itch as RTS games

Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!

Within a few minutes of watching it I knew it was going to be awesomely bad, and it lived up to my expectations

This, but unironically

I’ve seen this used on other Fediverse posts:

I wonder how hard it will be to just scrape the HTML to accomplish this. It’d be a bit of a cat-and-mouse game, but you’d probably get pretty far just using Google’s user agent string. I kind of think Reddit wouldn’t actually care about scraping vs API access, since all of Reddit’s dumbfuckery seems to be coming from spez panicking due to investor pressure, and I’d bet investors don’t have the faintest idea what “scraping” is.
