@luci That would probably be something you can ask upstream (https://github.com/RSDKModding/Sonic-Mania-Decompilation) about, I just got it running on Haiku cuz I was bored :-)

@luci @victor Not currently on HaikuDepot (for now), but you could try this Sonic Mania decompilation Haiku port I'm working on: https://github.com/sungsphinx/Sonic-Mania-Decompilation-haiku?tab=readme-ov-file#haiku

You will need a Data.rsdk file from a copy of Sonic Mania to play.

Unfortunately, This Week in KDE Apps will again be published on Monday instead of Sunday. I didn't manage to find time enough time to work on it this weekend.

To everyone when they see horrible privacy news about Microsoft replying with:

"I don't care, I use Linux"

Sure, you do. But does your medical clinic do? Does your therapist do? Does your family member typing a personal email to you in Word before sending it do too?

This is a systemic problem.

You cannot protect your own data only by using Linux yourself. You must also demand stronger regulations and enforcement to obligate organizations around to protect your data as well.

they're knowingly harboring an infamous techbro transphobe, bryan lunduke, and refused to do anything about it when people pointed that out. in addition to not having any instance rules against transphobia period. so it's clear the admin doesn't give a fuck and this is a dangerous instance worth defederating

okay, I finally found a good use for an LLM. no, really.

So, 86box has gotten General Modem Emulation in 4.2, and you can absolutely dial up with SLIP to access the internet over SLiRP, and it absolutely works.

Dialog Boxes you have not seen in Quite Some Time, volume 5.

@dexter @ariadne @w8emv Yeah, we want to put #coreboot on this Macbook from the @postmarketOS booth.

I’m working on porting Mobian to the Pixel 3a, pretty much everything works, even eSIM. The kernel dev is already working on upstreaming the patches, some are already in the next Linux release.

I’ve recently posted about the progress: lemmy.sdf.org/post/19600671

Updates to that post would be that eSIM does work and that the internal microphone will work very soon once the already existing patches are pushed to the git repo.

"Keeping VLC free and without ads is a no-brainer. I know people focus a lot on that part but, for me, it’s just the way it should be and it’s not difficult for me to keep it like that... Sure, more money would be fun, but most of the people I know who have more money are annoying." -- Jean-Baptiste Kempf
