I've rewritten @bigboxdb.com to be rid of any react server code and be totally custom golang based along with a static react frontend. There's still some jank to work out but I'll get it fixed soon.
I also open sourced all of this new version on GitHub github.com/adamzwakk/bi...
I think I've finally graduated out of learn.dvorak.nl and have the whole Dvorak keyboard memorized, now I'm onto @monkeytype.com to keep practicing. So far I'm at 20 WPM but I'll get there eventually.
Next @bigboxdb.com feature, making your own shelves by filters, maybe up by tomorrow when I clean it up more? idk
Is it worth rebuying or uhh _reliving_ again? Man I still need an original copy for my own collection soon.
Did a bunch of QOL updates to @bigboxdb.com
- Random boxes are front facing again
- Custom shelf lengths
- Less zoom restrictions
- Fixed searching
- Cleaned up API calls vs DB calls
Look you can make full ultrawide wallpapers, makes it totally worth it right?
Went on a tangent with Switch emulation and made a cross platform fork of this Tears of The Kingdom patcher that makes the game 60 FPS, custom resolutions, etc github.com/adamzwakk/to...
(its all python anyway, dude just only distributed exes for some reason 🤷♂️)
The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"
I finally did a big write up on @bigboxdb.com and how I got started, some of the tech ideas/pitfalls, and where it's at now www.adamzwakk.com/projects/big...
(I'll try and keep updating this)
I never post anymore because I forget, but I've been having a blast with my @analogue.bsky.social Analogue3D and playing Banjo Tooie, so far it works perfectly!
Also I never check in here because endless social feeds kind of make me hate the world in a way, but feel free to email/DM me or jump in on the @bigboxdb.com discord and message me! :D
Also I still have my 3D CSS version here, just for my own ego/"I told you I could do it" reasons www.bigboxdb.com/shelves/css
I've overhauled @bigboxdb.com to be the latest React/ThreeJS/dependency versions, fully supporting glb/ktx2 texture compression, fun lazy loading, more animations, and tons of performance improvements. www.bigboxdb.com/shelves
See my other 'release notes' at discord.com/channels/129...
I never post on here because I forget tbh, but we're at 434 boxes now on @bigboxdb.com! All thanks to some recent contributors!
I've always loved the left one (and have my own copy behind me) but I've never seen that right one!
I need audiobook suggestions! I'm usually into biographies or tech stuff, but also sci-fi sometimes. Anything at all, come at me!
Eventually I went up her from behind and said in my best Ethan Hunt voice "next time I see your phone out I'm taking it, you're ruining it for people being you".
She gave me a scared "ok..." and I never saw it again. The random guy beside me gave me props and it was totally with it.
I was a big boy in the movie theater today. A teenager was on her phone almost the WHOLE TIME during the new Mission Impossible scrolling and texting.
The boxart is holographic and killer tho
I would give George Lucas a blow job if he could get me all of this. I mean, I would do it for free anyways, but it would be extra special if he hooked me up. #StarWars #Lucasfilm #LucasArts
Remember THIS FUCKING SHIT?
First Clonezilla your drives then we'll talk
For me it's more about gaining knowledge by solving those types of problems. You're right though a lot of people can't be bothered (and to that I say use Mac if you REALLY don't want to be bothered tbh)
I think I might start an outline/presentation on "I bet I can get you to switch to Linux" and go through why/how/"just try it" reasons.
Talking about freedom, freedom of choice, privacy, getting a 'philosophy' around computing again, etc. Thoughts?
It also has one of the best breakdowns of all time near the end, you'll know when it hits 🤕
![Meshuggah - Catch 33(Full Album)[HQ]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:p776uyniq6fmd7x6uozybzus/bafkreiawlfeekwdb4lecriiizfcj4cs2kazdefcp5mmwg4rcanmoki4l7i)
Today is the 20th anniversary of one of my favorite albums, Meshuggah - Catch ThirtyThree www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEN3... it's one big groovy song complete with acts/motifs/themes/spoken word segments etc with lots of chuggy breakdowns and screaming about paradoxes and unseen horrors
The author of MyHouse.WAD is honestly a legend, just like their game. Major props for both keeping up with updating the game AND staying completely unknown for over two years now!
posting as a bsky video for improved ergonomics
Also not that I should have to state this, but I am NOT hosting any ROMs, I am just mirroring fan-made patch files with some custom scripts to scrape/cache sites and using Hugo. You're on your own after that! (use flips)
