brettermeier··on Solitaire Alone Together
Spider Solitaire is very nice, I really would recommend Simple Solitaire Collection for Android on F-Droid. It has 17 Modes, Spider included and you have settings, for Spider for example you can choose from 1, 2 or 4 different card colors to make it harder.

Downvote this!
brettermeier··on Resident Evil 4 (GameCube) – complete byte-identical decompilation to C/C++
I really like a small or larger comment above each function and more, even if people often say "less is more" - I disagree. Comment everything! It won't hurt. And people who don't like it can remove them and feel mighty.

Upvote this.
brettermeier··on I don't like passkeys
I absolutely hate them and avoid them everywhere I can. I'm not bound to a single device or I don't want to get bound to some, and some pages quit your option with a normal password login after setting up a passkey. Absolutely frustrating.
brettermeier··on Why 'sleepmaxxing' could be making your sleep worse
Fucking website, i open it, i scroll, something shitty reloads and it jumps back to top. I scroll again. Now a huge popup is blocking everything i see. Closed. And that was BBC... omg.
brettermeier··on Fine, I'll build my own text editor
Why you burned all the tokens and energy for something that is out there like 1000 times? I don't think this is the future, would be a stupid future.
brettermeier··on Tmp.0ut Volume 5
Very nice aesthetics.
brettermeier··on Restroom Archive
What, where? Never saw this.
brettermeier··on Playa Phone
> It's still the best party going on anywhere in the world that week.

That's a bold claim, but maybe it's true :D

brettermeier··on US Government designates host of noblogs.org a "global terrorist"
Why downvoted? It IS a fascist regime you have there in your 1st world shitshow. Get over it and name it as it is.
brettermeier··on CEO fired developers to make room for AI. Developers create open source AI CEO
I love it! Go after the CEOs!
brettermeier··on London Underground begins scanning passengers' faces
Might be, we will see.
brettermeier··on Stowaway – Take the window seat on any plane or satellite overhead
Oh man, it took a while till i saw the button "Ride along"... but now i understand, nice project!
brettermeier··on London Underground begins scanning passengers' faces
There might not be a publicly known area for that protest.
brettermeier··on London Underground begins scanning passengers' faces
Facial recognition could be used to identify people who are likely to participate in protests and prevent them from doing so in advance by intercepting them at their boarding station or somewhere near it. You could also scan for persons arriving in a city where a protest might be plannend and arrest them beforehand.
brettermeier··on Tuxedo No. 2 – Cocktail recipes
You also should not sit in front your PC all day long. And lets not start with living in big cities... ohh the air...
brettermeier··on Branchless Rust: Making a Filter 4x Faster by Removing an If
Hard to say for me... I use it for programming, but want it to not talk too much. So I've not many experiences with letting it write long texts...
brettermeier··on Quake – 30th Anniversary Update
M-M-M-M-Monsterkill-kill-kill! Different game, but I still can hear that sound playing in my head.
brettermeier··on Branchless Rust: Making a Filter 4x Faster by Removing an If
I switch languages randomly.
brettermeier··on Drone carrying explosive device causes disruption at major German airport
In german news it says (translated via deepl): A drone carrying an explosive device was found near a Ukrainian cargo plane at Leipzig/Halle Airport. A large-scale operation temporarily shut down the airport. A political motive has not been ruled out. Saxony’s Interior Minister Armin Schuster (CDU) called it a “very serious security incident.”

That sounds more serious, and it seems it is.

brettermeier··on How Hollywood stopped making movies in Hollywood
Why is this downvoted? Is it wrong?
brettermeier··on The true power of regular expressions (2012)
Why could external URLs be a problem? And is it still one if you swap https to hxxps or something? What could go wrong with having a URL as a comment in code?

I put URLs there sometimes and think it's very helpful.

brettermeier··on EU enforces labeling AI generated content
What not for? That people can't post AI fake stuff and pretend it's true.
brettermeier··on Let's make the worst Htmx
Nice, I really like this series, this made me really understand those web frameworks much better as before. Thank you.
brettermeier··on US citizen charged after GrapheneOS phone wipes during airport search
Yeah that is true, sadly... I was a little too provocative without acknowledging the complexity behind it.

Maybe change your location then :P
brettermeier··on Jelly UI: Soft-body physics for native HTML form controls
> But basically anything that deforms on click related to where you click are nonsense.

Why would you say this? These buttons recognize every click I do on them and I find it very nice that the deformation is different for different click areas. The button still works like a normal button but is nice to look at, or have I misunderstood you?
