This message seems to pop up constantly for me. Other apps and web still work even when this message persists in summit.

No. It's a gun that lights up when a wolf is around. They are not the same species. Black people are human, and not a different species.

My god this looks bad. I would totally watch this.

If AMD decides to update the drivers so my rift S isn't just showing greens, I will. I'm not a fan of downgrading drivers just to play VR.

You made me buy this game, and I'm now sitting with my steam deck enjoying a new descent game. Thank you. I've finished the first few levels, and it's exactly like descent in many ways with qol upgrades.

Tell that to circuit board designers. It's horrible every time a 3d model of a circuit board is added. The component height gives no visual advantage, and it's slow as shit on corporate computers.

I, on the other hand, loved it. Especially with a joystick. Though I was too young to really get far. I've picked it up since, and I still absolutely love it.

If only there was a way we could fit double the cars, maybe even triple in a smaller plot of land.

I really don't get how America survives with the lack of parking garages. It saves space, giving room to more nature. It saves walking, considering USians are generally considered less fit.

All the large parking lots really bothered me when I was there. Most are empty most of the time, and look like post apocalyptic wasteland.

I always give the full 60%. In case I need to step up, I can give 66%, and be seen as a miracle worker.

Haha. It's meant to be an observatory indeed. 320 x 240 doesn't really lend itself well to scaled grass in monochrome. It's what it is

My first (real) pixel art. I wanted to start with the limitation of monochrome to see if I could make something semi recognizable.

 

Another year has passed, and it's been a relatively quiet year for RetroLemmy. Since the last anniversary we had a few lemmy updates, we added a working email functionality (which helps for our response time for new registrations), not much downtime (with the exception of the huge downtime last April) and we added an "in case of emergency" communication line through Mastodon (@DosDude@mastodon.social). We also had the biggest influx of users this year, with the 2nd Reddit exodus, and have almost sextupled in users!

Admin-wise, it's not a lot of work (I'm sure some of you were wondering about that). We don't intend to interfere often, and we haven't done it much in the past. Sometimes we ban the random spam account, and the occasional rowdy person. But nothing too bad. For actual non-spam accounts we don't intend to perma ban, unless they keep breaking the few rules we have.

Now for my personal thanks:

I want to thank everyone for being here, making accounts and/or communities. We had a few new active communities this year, and it puts a smile on my face every time I see a new post in the local tab.

We also have some very active users that joined this year, and seeing local users in the wild is always fun. But all the lurkers are also very much appreciated, and you don't have to feel compelled to suddenly post and/or comment ;).

To another year of awesome retro fun!

Cheers.

 

Hello!

The update went on without many problems, and only took a few minutes.

If you have any problems or questions, send me a message or reply to this thread.

Update thread with changelog here

In case of emergency or downtime, I will try to give updates through mastodon. You can follow me @DosDude@mastodon.social

You can also message me there if you notice the site is down and I haven't posted an update yet.

The recent downtime has put it to my attention that users might want to get updates if the site is down. I completely understand, and agree. I don't intend to use this account much, so don't expect the usual microblog nonsense from this account.

Thanks!

 

It would be nice to see the domain the link takes you in the post feed (for compact, not sure if it's already in other views, but I'm sure other people using those would like it too if it's not there already) like in the lemmy web UI. I don't always want to go to certain pages, and this makes that easier to spot.

 

The actual play is over 6 hours, and surprisingly amusing to watch!

Link here if you have 6 hours of free time.
