  There’s nothing in the frame to give a sense of scale. These are actually thirty feet long.

  Seconding Animal Well. I should go back and collect a few more achievements.

  In less seriousness, yeah it’s annoying.

  Third. I swear by them (and got their keyboard too, in Family Basic colors, and mouse in NES colors).
  The moment they put out a keyboard in Atomic Purple, I’m throwing a bunch more money at them.

  The meaning is different if it’s pointing the other way

  This isn’t quite in line with your question but it’s adjacently meta:
  the first time you fall to your death in Bastion the (amazing) narrator says “…and then he fell to his death. … Ahh, I’m just foolin’.” and then you respawn on the platform because videogame.

  Oh heck yeah. Some of the most fun I’ve had with couch co-op was in Timesplitters 2.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m on Android. You’ve motivated me to dig up that setting and change it. I had assumed that each application handled that individually.
  Mm. Looks like Android also has that locked down these days. We need a viable Linux phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve got it, it seems to not engage when I follow links from other apps on mobile.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That site is terrible. It popped up a modal begging for my email address just from scrolling, and it did the back-button hijack via hidden redirection on initial page load, which then redirected my back button to a different page which tried to beg me to stay on their domain.
  In case any future web designers are reading this: trying to trick me into spending more time on your website is the fastest way to make me want to burn your website to the ground and dance in its ashes.

  No, that would be an and hominem.

  3-5 weren’t made by Cyan, just published by them. They only got the rights back relatively recently.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is it called linux phone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. And if nobody’s done your specific model, you’re all the way out of luck.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is it called linux phone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Technically most things we call “Linux” aren’t even Linux, they’re distributions that use Linux as a base. Android forks their own Linux kernel and then shovels on a whole bunch of non-Linuxy stuff on top of it and then locks it all down so that you can’t make any changes.
  So what people mean when they say they want a true Linux phone is that they want an OS on their phone that behaves more like most Linux distributions (where you are in control, and can even install a different kernel if you wanted).
  As for the forking question, being downstream of Android means A) undoing everything they did it lock it down and B) constantly having to do that moving forward as they do everything they can to stymie you at every turn.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is it called linux phone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not easily anyway. Probably if you could do it at a hardware level, but manufacturers have been making it harder and harder to even get the dang thing open, and every model and revision would require intense research just to prove it out.

  Hope that all the tiny little people had the sense to get out of the way because I sure can’t see them from all the way up here
