Are you trying to run it on PC?

This is only the decompilation of the original for N64, the binaries it produces are for the N64 or an emulator. Making a PC port is the next step.

I bought the game on release mostly to support them. The folks at Moon Studios are seriously talented and deserve some support.

I played ~2 hours on release and thought the game was decent. The combat had some weight, the art style was excellent, the bosses were fun and challenging and the exploration was pretty neat. There were many performance issues which they have since mostly fixed but there were also a few systems taken from different genres that didn’t work that well together for me. I didn’t play for a while though, so maybe they improved things in that area.

Still, I’m also waiting for the coop, which is scheduled to release with the next major update.

I wouldn’t read too much into this news article. Their CEO has since clarified that he might have been a bit hyperbolic and didn’t expect the media to pick up on his random Discord post.

I don’t quite agree with his assessment of being “review bombed”. Most negative reviews come down to the game being released in early access: bad performance, many systems not working well together, being behind roadmap, missing coop on launch and more recently, difficulty. I do get their need for releasing in early access after Microsoft dropped them but it might have hurt them in the long run.

I have wondered this for a while, what is it you do that requires such intensive editing of PDFs?

Both at work and at home PDF is sort of a “read only format” for me.

I get it for things that should not be edited (e.g. invoices) and export it myself for things that should not be edited (e.g. finished documentation). The only “editing” of PDF files that I rarely do is filling out PDF forms or signing a PDF, which most readers can do.

Sayonara Wild Hearts is such a good weekend game. Really cheap, really short, really good and with a soundtrack that you’re going to listen to long after finishing the game.

Highly recommend!

I ran Emby for a while before switching to Jellyfin. Still running it today.

It has been a few years since I last used Plex but I always liked their interface, their tech stack is fairly modern, they have apps for pretty much every device, their title matching for content works really well and there was not much wrong with it back in the day other than it lacking local authentication.

I switched over long ago when they started pushing streaming services to my users that I couldn’t deactivate server side.

Heads up, I asked their support and it works neither on Linux nor without cloud.

Cool device though.

If Caddy works for you, no reason to change it.

I use Traefik because I like how tightly integrated it is with Docker. If the container with the config labels on it starts/stops the corresponding router in Traefik also starts/stops.

Since my services are mostly running in Docker, it’s the perfect workflow for me.

Thanks for documenting it for future people! Glad you got it to work.

Anyway, what I wanted to know is why do people self host?

For the warm and fuzzy feeling I get when I know all my documents, notes, calendars, contacts, passwords, movies/shows/music, videos, pictures and much more are stored safely in my basement and belong to me.

Nobody is training their AI on it, nobody is trying to use them for targetted ads, nobody is selling them. Just for me.

I owned a Prusa Mk3 (bed slinger) and currently own a Voron 2.4 (CoreXY with flying gantry) and a Prusa Core One (CoreXY with static gantry), my 2 cents:

Bed slingers are cheap and reliable. Their layout makes sure the axis are always rigid and aligned or at the very least they are very easy to align if they are not.

They do have a giant disadvantage though which is shaking the print on the Y axis. For small prints that is negligible but as you go higher it becomes a disaster quite quickly. I could never print thin and high support structure along the X axis on my Mk3, it would just tip over or break once it reaches a certain height. Same issue with lithophanes. If I printed them on the wrong axis, they would fail or become distorted as the bed shakes.

I bought and built the Voron 2.4 primarily because Prusa did not release a CoreXY for such a long time and I did not want to have that same issues again since lots of my prints are pretty tall and thin.

In principle, the flying gantry is my favorite. The bed sits totally still and only the head moves, ideal for thin and tall prints. It’s also really cool to see the flying gantry level itself, almost like magic.

There’s one issue with flying gantries that I encountered multiple times on my Voron, which is that it needs very precise calibration in order to produce accurate results.

Due to the flying gantry there are just so many variables that can influence the end result. It’s almost impossible to determine exactly where the issue is coming from without much time for diagnosing. Skewed frame, skewed gantry, skewed Y axis, wrong or uneven belt tension and so much more. It’s a real pain to diagnose print issues. My Voron still has a very tiny skew and I have no idea where it’s coming from.

The Core One has a static gantry, which is in my opinion the best design I have used so far. Compared to the usual static gantry like on the Voron Trident, the Core One gantry has one solid 4 sided steel piece which impacts view a little bit but you can be certain that the gantry is square.

This drastically reduces the amount of possible issues. It still needs almost perfect belt tensioning so the gantry does not skew but other than that the only other thing that needs to match is the alignment between bed and XY axis, that’s about it. It was incredibly easy to get the skew on my Core One kit to pretty much zero.

No more bed slingers for me and seeing the flying gantry once was enough. CoreXY with static gantry from now on until something better comes along.

I don’t use the Solution explorer but I also don’t think it has one.

I usually kickstart a fresh application with a SLN and a few projects in the dotnet CLI and VSCodium picks up the launch project automatically when I tell it to create a launch.json. For existing applications, if the .vscode folder already exists it will just pick it up or I can also just ask it to create a launch.json.

That workflow has been ingrained into me since there were no real C# utilities for VS Code when it first launched, so not much changed for me when going to VSCodium.

Is there something missing in OmniSharp that prevents you from using VSCodium?

I do most of my C# development with the OmniSharp plugin in VSCodium on Linux.

Helldivers works fine on Linux, I play it from time to time.

Ms office windows apps are kind of great compared to libreoffice

Did you give OnlyOffice a try? https://flathub.org/apps/org.onlyoffice.desktopeditors

VS Code (i know it’s still MS but I do C# .NET work and rider is too expensive, I don’t want a subscription for an IDE)

VSCodium is a thing too if you want to un-Microsoft even further.

https://vscodium.com/

I use it for C# development on Linux and it works well.

getting a password manager

Bitwarden and Keepass are usually the go tos, depending on your use case.

then a new browser

Firefox or if you want to decouple from Mozilla as well, Librewolf works pretty well.

potentially a Google pay replacement

I’m not aware of any open Google Pay replacements other than taking a card with you.

As soon as you get rid of Google on your phone, you get rid of Google Pay.

You had me at “No Java”.

I never heard of this game until it came out on Steam but I bought it on launch and was not disappointed. Really fun game.

Also, I noticed that the remaster update dropped today. Might just hop back in.

It’s nice that they give the franchise another chance after the disaster of a launch the previous entry had. I really enjoyed it post-launch when most issues were fixed.

However, looking to “appeal to the mainstream” sounds like it might backfire and become a game for nobody. I’m cautiously optimistic for now.

Also, it’s Epic exclusive so they can wake me up once it hits Steam or GOG for half the price.
