In 2000, the WonderSwan received a web browser supporting a subset of HTML 3.2, tables, GIF files, reading Japanese text, bookmarks, and cookies - all on a handheld competing with the Game Boy Color.
From 2004, it no longer worked due to a missing gateway server. UNTIL TODAY.
I wrote a tutorial, so you can make it work again too, if you want!
It's up on my blog: https://blog.asie.pl/2023/08/browsing-the-web-wonderswan-2023/
@icedquinn I use Charcoal based toothpaste. I tried using just baking soda, but it made my mouth too dry.
@SwiftOnSecurity You can always donate to FOSS developers.
@djsumdog What has he been doing all this time? He seemed to have gone dark after the falling out with Dick Masterson.
Another cultural/lifestyle rant that is probably going to piss people off
Okay, time for a follow up rant. I don't understand why dogs are sometimes loved and valued even more than humans. Though the only people who would openly admit to it are misanthropic, vegan leftists who support the VHEMT, but most dog lovers also fall into this category. Here are some points to consider:
* People get offended by violence towards dogs even more so than violence towards humans. For example, Nintendo had to force ID Software to replace the Nazi guard dogs with rats in the SNES version of Wolfenstein 3D. There's other media that had similar censorship but I can't think of any off the top of my head.
* Some of the most tear-jerking books and films involve dogs dying. People die all the time in books and films but dog deaths always get people more for whatever reason.
* You see more commercials and advertisements from non-profits asking to donate to help stray dogs or adopt animals from an animal shelter than you see commercials asking the same for orphaned, human children. It seems like people would rather help stray dogs than human children who have no parents.
* Dog fighting is illegal in most places, but boxing is not.
@stux I had a copy of that book. It had a cover and it was soft as a pillow.
@coolboymew @Pawlicker @lina @atlas_core @hj Maybe it's because of my libertarian views. I don't discuss crypto that much, but I do occasionally share news articles, and discuss other libertarian projects such as seasteading and 3D-printing.
I do have an account on Nostr, but I only post gamedev stuff on there and I feel like I have more Nostr users following me on here than on actual Nostr.
@lina @Pawlicker @atlas_core @hj @coolboymew
>it feels like the entirety of bitcoinhackers instance migrated there to religiously worship bitcoin
That's actually what happened. BitcoinHackers was replaced with a Nostr node. The place is also popular with camgirls.
@coolboymew @Pawlicker @lina @atlas_core @hj Some of them talk to me and follow me, and not for anything crypto related.
@OrangeyIs@bae.st Ironically enough the main culprit isn't Lenovo but Intel (apparently).
At this rate my next laptop will most likely be a Panasonic Toughbook, lmao
