Earthbound: Halloween Hack was really great! I played it this season. I wish it were longer though.

Thanks for posting the others! I’ll check them out!

Russia is sanctioned for invading Ukraine.

In ye old’n times we would leave the console on as a stop-gap way to save the game between in-game save opportunities. Because ye old’n times game design philosophy believed that the added difficulty of crazily separated save points was “fun”.

In modern times I sleep the hardware if I expect to be back within <24 hrs, and power off if I expect to be longer.

(Thank god for saving memory states in emulators!!! Elsewise I probably wouldn’t play retro games at all.)

Ugh, you’re right! I didn’t realize. I’m going to give SpamBlocker a try instead. I just downloaded and flipped through the options and it looks better than “Yet Another Call Blocker” anyway.

You’re right, I hadn’t noticed that.

Looks like the F-droid version is way behind, because you can see on their GitLab page that the project is still maintained. It’d be best to get the app directly through GitLab I suppose, or add an F-droid repo that has a more up-to-date version.

It can block hidden numbers, if that’s what you mean by “private”.

I hope you like the app!

Yes. Go to settings and toggle the Block hidden numbers option

I use Yet Another Call Blocker. It has a custom block list you can use to block a specific number.

The block list also supports wildcard characters, which is my favorite feature! I use it to block swaths of numbers (much of my spam comes from the state I used to live in, so I block those area codes).

Update for anyone who might be experiencing this issue:

I finally found a workaround “hacky” solution. I exported all of my notes to a backup file on desktop, sent it to my phone, put my phone in airplane mode, imported the backup, deleted all of the duplicate notes which resulted (because the phone was partway synced), turned off airplane mode, synced, then switched to desktop and synced.

In the syncing process a lot of notes were unnecessarily deleted and replaced with exact copies. So it wasn’t elegant, but it got the job done. Everything seems to be working now (I think)

Autumn is always Diablo-season in my family. We’ll play a modded Diablo 1 or 2 together. It’s tradition!

Thanks a lot for the help. I tried it all but no luck. I also realized that Fdroid uses a pre-release version of Joplin - so I downgraded to the latest on the GitHub and then repeated all of these tests/suggestions but still no change.

I’ve reached out to the devs via a GitHub issue. Hope that helps. Thanks again!!!

That’s insane!

What do you mean? That’s the same layout as the SNES controller, & it’s what most of the retro handhelds use.

Also, it’s running Linux so it’s easy to remap the buttons to a custom layout if desired.

Oh, it looked Ok in my app (Voyager). But I added the line break.

Depending on the car you might be able to physically disable telemetry. Here are some thoughts/ideas I’ve been collecting:

• Hit “SOS” button and opt-out of all services through customer service. This of course requires trusting the company to actually do it.
  • It’s possible that the info could be stored locally and then uploaded when it gets serviced though
• Remove the fuse to the modem/data communication module (DCM)
• Disconnect wiring to the LTE antennas
• A number of people have mentioned that they can get the dealer to disconnect the telemetry as a precondition to buying. For instance, here.
• Jump the data communication module (DCM) cable with a ~$70 dongle to bypass just the telematics components
• Disconnect the DCM cable, which will likely gimp the infotainment if not other systems, or remove the entire DCM unit

Looked up “cromulent” in the dictionary. Wasn’t disappointed!!

The chances of a deal are said to be weeks away, if not non-existent.

What kind of non-sentence is that?

This is a remake, not a port. And being so I wonder: “Why not just port Minetest instead? It’d get better longterm support that way. And why reinvent the wheel?”
