Something that requires a PHP backend might make it easier to for people to run on older, simpler devices without JS, but I feel like these days there's a lot more people without reliable network connectivity than without JS support, and I really like the idea of sticking a static HTML site on a webserver that people can save and run offline, or even make it a progressive web app so people can install it on their phones without me having to package it separately for each OS and device.

What do you need the JS for anyway? If you're making a point-and-click game, I think good ol' CSS can do anything. Failing that, there's always image maps.

Vim is antiquated garbage.

The biggest thing I love with newer editors is Language Server Protocol support, or "Intellisense." Nothing saves time like having the API documentation pop right up without having to look it up, or having your compiler parse everything as you go and correct typos. It's even standardized and can be included in basically any editor you want.

Been trying a few SMW hacks. Super Mario Bros. 1X is quite good. (Video)

It's a SMW hack but it's done in the style of All-Stars graphically and features levels and gameplay mechanics from a whole bunch of Mario games (including levels straight out of Super Mario Land and SMB2US). It starts out with a fairly normal degree of difficulty (about the same as the original games) but gets progressively harder and by W-6 or 7 it starts to be relatively challenging but never frustratingly so.

Oh yeah, at least the good ones do. This hack works on bsnes, higan and Snes9x (and should work on hardware obviously). The "hack was only tested on ZSNES" era is gone for good it seems. I think smwcentral will indicate when a hack has issues on hardware(/good SNES emulators). Not sure if they even accept new submissions where it only works on ZSNES.

I can’t believe people put up with this shit.

I'm given to understand that this is a Switch problem, not a SwSh problem, related to poor ExFAT support on the system itself. This has reportedly also happened while playing Cadence of Hyrule, Breath of the Wild, and possibly others I can't recall, with the one common factor being ExFAT-formatted SD cards.

That's interesting, but how does he know the FPGA doesn't have any backdoors?

Posted by sureanem
How do you know that though? It's an integrated circuit, it's not possible to audit it. They could burn literally anything they please into it and you've have no way of telling, short of decapping it.

Posted by sureanem
Yes, but it's hardly cheap to do so, and you could very well be prevented under legal limitations.

I can't imagine it would be too hard [to introduce hardware backdoors].

Given his post history, I think he’d be happier with the 3700x. He’s going to want to have the extra single-thread performance.

I would have gone for a x470 motherboard because I know the stupid tiny chipset fans on the x570 would annoy me, and the b450’s choke buzzing would be more audible, too.

I’m looking at RAM prices, and 16gb 3600MHz is only about $5 more than 3200MHz right now, so the bump is worth it.

The ASRock X570 Aqua (90-MXBAZ0-A0UAYZ) don't have chipset fans
