I’m planning on getting a flip v2 in August. I’m really hoping it will be better than what some say.

I want more ports! Stardew on a small console like that is a dream.

Although the work the devs (and a tiny bit myself) have put into onion os makes the MMP and MM so good to play. And 3d printed handles make the MMP easier in my hands!

Ive tried a couple of times, ended up bricking a phone and had to re-do another. Linux phones are hard to get set up (for certain models).

Yeah its VERY expensive and only useful for a very niche setup. But its cool we can have options like this in the first place.

I disagree about how it used to be easy. And agree with everything else.

Ive used Windows since the 3.1 days (MSDOS as well?). Its never been “easy”. You just learn the magic spells on how to fix a printer, get the right drivers installed in JUST the right way, or which hardware magically doesn’t work for some reason and avoid it.

With Linux, at least we get good logs most of the time.

I know some of the issue is the manuals themselves are out of date. Ive literally had to have something explained to me via the developers Discord. I hate going to a projects Discord in order to find out crucial info.

Sometimes manuals are in 5 different places so you don’t know what applies to your specific system.

I usually try and improve the manuals when I do come across this with a quick PR, when I have time.

Nice fun game!

You may like the book “the perfect run”. It’s on royal road.

It goes over quite a few scenarios like what you are talking about about. Plays out like a hero story though.

I’m not sure if the hard requirement of using openai is good for an open source projects. It requires a somewhat hidden closed source source for the main functionality.

I bought an ouya. I remember just about everything sucked. It’s the thing that came into mind.

Unfortunately it’s sold out. In fact it was only available for a very small amount of time.

Yep I got one too. Works great and self hosted. I swear its actually faster than GH is nowadays.

And I like that it doesn’t try to advertise and recommend a ton of repos to do you like GH does now.

I like the look-ish ofthe army men, but yeah looking to see what they do with all the other assets.

Thanks!

Appreciate it.

If I was the one doing the buying and selling, I would definitely be doing sell low buy high lol.

I was lucky and lost some minor $$ in bitcoin back in the day. Now I just put it all on automatic. Index funds with monthly/biweekly deposits are the best for me and mine.

The best time to buy is when everyone else is losing their ass. This is the best time to buy, unless it isnt and the entire market dies.

I remember 2009-2010. It was much worse than this right now. The trick is keeping your job in this market.

I used fail2ban + router to block the ip addresses. Then if the headers come from openai, they also get bounced.

Below is a template I used that I created on the fly for an AI black hole that I also made. Its decent, but I feel like it could be better.

from flask import Flask, request, redirect, render_template_string
import time
from collections import defaultdict
import random

app = Flask(__name__)

# Data structure to keep track of requests per IP
ip_requests = defaultdict(list)
IP_REQUEST_THRESHOLD = 1000  # Requests threshold for one hour
TIME_WINDOW = 3600  # Time window of one hour in seconds

# Function to track and limit requests based on IP
def track_requests(ip):
    current_time = time.time()
    ip_requests[ip] = [t for t in ip_requests[ip] if current_time - t < TIME_WINDOW]  # Remove old requests
    ip_requests[ip].append(current_time)
    return len(ip_requests[ip])

# Serve slow pages incrementally
@app.route('/')
def index():
    ip = request.remote_addr
    request_count = track_requests(ip)

    if request_count > IP_REQUEST_THRESHOLD:
        return serve_slow_page(request_count)
    else:
        return 'Welcome to the site!'

def serve_slow_page(request_count):
    """Serve a progressively slower page."""
    delay = min(10, request_count / 1000)  # Slow down incrementally, max 10 seconds delay
    time.sleep(delay)  # Delay to slow down the request

    # Generate the next "black hole" link
    next_page_link = f'/slow/{random.randint(1000, 9999)}'
    
    html_content = f"""
    <html>
    <head><title>Slowing You Down...</title></head>
    <body>
        <h1>You are being slowed down!</h1>
        <p>This is taking longer than usual because you're making too many requests.</p>
        <p>You have made more than {IP_REQUEST_THRESHOLD} requests in the past hour.</p>
        <p>Next step: <a href="{next_page_link}">Click here for the next page...</a></p>
    </body>
    </html>
    """
    return render_template_string(html_content)

@app.route('/slow/<int:page_id>')
def slow_page(page_id):
    ip = request.remote_addr
    request_count = track_requests(ip)

    if request_count > IP_REQUEST_THRESHOLD:
        return serve_slow_page(request_count)
    else:
        return 'Welcome back to normal!'

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

This is why I’m on Lemmy/activityhub.

Nice

Coromon never got sued.

But yeah your right, even the sprite work looks similar.

I’ll def play it if it comes out.
