@susie @coolboymew @mangeurdenuage if someone wanted to design indie games in the style of goldeneye 64 are there any usb controllers that are like an n64 controller?

i tried at a some stores recently but they didn't seem to which surprised me, it would need to have the c buttons tho, not a c-stick.

@icedquinn i was able to see it on the mitra front end, btc transactions consume 1.5 months of air conditioner use...? it must be getting more effecient!!! last i heard it was YEARS lol.

seriously though, millions of ppl don't run an airconditioner EVER....to them this must be music to their ears! also considering the fact that as the available energy goes down so does the hashrate, also thanks to lihtning network i shouldn't need to have more than 4 or so open channels in a year to do infinite transactions in that year.

bitcoin is so dang incredible. in only wish the computers we produce could securely handle it :aru_0100:

@icedquinn i do that but this is for new thoughts, i seem to need to mediate over almost everything, lol.

@icedquinn it may come from using i2p quite a bit, the time delays allow it?

@jeffcliff interesting questions, ultimately communities have their say via DoS

HTML changes

• For top frameset add attribute: cols="36%,*"
• For both framesets border="1"
• Use 🖉 (U+1F589, not 'edit' [profile])
• Use ☺ (U+263A, remove "Emoji list" and place its entire <a> element before the 'NSFW' element)
• add attribute 'placeholder="Your toot here 🖊"' (U+1F58A) (remove label above text box)
• instead of 'public', try ⊜ (U+229C) and write a tooltip, aka title attribute, as "Public")
• instead of 'unlisted', try ⊝ (U+229D) and write a tooltip as "Unlisted")
• instead of 'private/followers only', try ⊚(U+229A) and write a tooltip as "Private/Followers only")
• instead of 'direct', try ⊙(U+2299) and write a tooltip as "Direct message (DM)")
• (NOTE: fyi there are the following additional glyphs available ⊛⊘⊕⊗🖂 so you can decide what you want to do. Can everyone see them in their browsers???)
• instead of "refresh" alongside headings, try 🗘 (U+1F5D8)

@r

>36% looks way too wide

hang on, you mean the left side looks too wide! i thought you meant eaelier that the right side looks too wide and i jus now realise you fix/hold the left side at 400ish px, which, to me makes the right side look way too wide when i widen. :P

By what you're telling me it sounds like the best remedy will be to measure everything in em, including margins and profile images, then we simply use media queries to change the font-size. then everything will look okay even on some massive 4k display etc. i can go ahead and do that.

@p are you still there, or have you moved to @p? you might be interested in knowing what we're discussing here.

frogzone, 3 months ago

@r @p @p @silverpill @icedquinn @nimda There are designers that use em for everything and im glad you compelled me to think about changing dimensions because now when I expand and contract frames/the browser, its basically ALWAYS awesome. :bananadance:

i'd like using svg a lot more if the @torproject team, whitelisted the parts of svg that wont burn us all...... :pensive_cowboy: maybe in the next decade we'll get them. hope spring eternal.

bye 4 now.

frogzone, 2 months ago

@nimda @r @p @silverpill @icedquinn ok i did the rest of the css, notable are the emoji and user profile pages.... see how the latter looks as you resize frame. Big user names, like jeffcliff's, no longer break the layout of the profile page. I also fixed a minor regression where i applied rounded edges to only the dark theme. Also fixes that the <h1> font-size wasn't scaling up properly, and a some other minor tweak. Where a change couldn't be tested, i say so. The needed HTML changes are unchanged from above (latest).

@nimda @silverpill @r @icedquinn @p if i may ask for something in return, it would be the hashtag-searching on mitra via bloat. its not working yet...not from the search interface, nor when clicking on a hashtag in someones toot.

Do tell me if u find something wrong, or weird-looking, also tell my when the html changes are done so i can do 2 finishing touches to the css

thanks and enjoy :)

@r @nimda @silverpill @icedquinn @p oh nice! that would be good, thanks. thats what i assumed search by "statuses" was because thats just how search works on mastodon iirc (fwiw "statuses" search is not working for mitra via bloat either). i prefer using hashtags for topics... don't really need to be found based on random word choices, typically when publishing something i'll use a few hashtags.

@icedquinn i never regret a good bath/shower. nor work on the land, nor a good sleep. or the time i spend with art/artful people. those things are pretty timeless.

frogzone, 3 months ago

@icedquinn i think you are artful, btw

@vriska @icedquinn @MercurialBlack these same men love to say "money doesn't grow on trees". well if "trees" are the money printer they do, lol

@icedquinn wasn't open.ai always on microsoft servers, tho. 'bigtech-ai-serving-bigtech' is not a difficult conclusion to reach.

i personally take solace in blocking bigtech 97 percent of the time, its incredibly liberating to say, no i can't use your service because its hosted on amazon, cloudflare etc and i have some basic standards in my life to reject evil.

@icedquinn What's this a reference to?
