Hidden Chubie in AugmentedUI
I’m not saying that #augmentedUi has some easter eggs in it’s documentation but there is at least one Chubie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhXoYgB7rPU&t=13693s) and a mysterious secret hidden in one of it’s demo elements 🤓 Had a good chuckle and now I wonder what the secret is. It wasn’t just base64 or rot13 tho 🤔 Is this a paper chase? http://augmented-ui.com/
Dipping into SpaceBourne 2 – Rebuilding A Friend
Okay, I did some recording of SpaceBourne 2 and added a voice over and even subtitles… and I conclude that is way too much work but in case you’re interested into a sneak peak of this early access go ahead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz4uK2Irofo / https://tube.tchncs.de/w/5h9VoeHs5vTAu3bgptc7bN
Played around with #SteamLink on the weekend. Mostly to debug my VAAPI issue and testing what runs well. It’s still a pain in the neck and some games I can only get to stream with tweaks but after all I’m kinda impressed. Not that it makes sense do play most of my library on a mobile phone but what works here does also work on the 55" in the living room 🤪
Tried Paperless-ngx and gotta say I like it so far: https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/ I was especially happy when I found the Paperless apps in the #fdroid store. That’s always a good sign 🤓 > #PaperlessNGX is a community-supported open-source document management system that transforms your physical documents into a searchable online archive so you can keep, well, less paper.
X52Pro to multiple gamepads on Linux PC
Scribbles to run a X52Pro as two virtual gamepads via moltengamepad Put this in ~/.config/moltengamepad/gendevices/x52-pro.cfg Run this with moltengamepad –num-gamepads 2 –mimic-xpad and press button on the joystick _first_ and on the throttle _second_ so they get assigned in the correct order. This should result in two gamepads _and_ the X52Pro so even really braindead games that do only support gamepadS should be able to read this at least in any way. If the game does support only one gamepad consider binding joystick _buttons_ to keyboard presses (e.g. with AntiMicroX instead).
Helium and balloons
All that balloon talks going on and I can only think about my odyssey on the weekend to find lumpy 10l of Helium. We usually buy this in an industrial bottle because the one-time bottles you can get for birthday parties are… meh. In costs, litres and waste of the empty can (litre litter). The 10l bottle is enough for years and several birthday parties and can be refilled. So I was puzzled when I went for a refill on Saturday just to find out that my usual dealer doesn’t have any. I was told that their dealer holds deliveries…
