  • I'll add a few of my own:

    • PlateUp! It's like roguelike Overcooked. Upgrade and build your own kitchen as the customers come faster and faster, try to survive long enough to earn five stars.
    • LevelHead, its like indie Mario Maker. Play as a delivery robot and escort the package to the flag. The package works like the companion cube! You can throw it to deflect bullets, or climb on it, or drop it on a button, etc. Level editor looks good too!
    • Shütshimi, its like Wario Ware except it's a shmup. Swim through waves of enemy fish, get a powerup after each wave, but think fast, you only get five seconds to read what the items do.
  • yeah! it used to be a little bit fiddly with installing custom drivers, but that's all built into steam now. or if you're not using steam, look up joycond (linux) or betterjoy (windows).

  • "personal" and "trustless" seem sort of at odds here. you want personal data, so you want personal storage.

    what I recommend, if you have the time and energy, is to find another self-hoster you trust and be "backup buddies" with them. set up remote file storage on both your networks and send your backups to the other person's server.

    if you can't find another self-hoster, then find a friend or family member you trust and mail them your backups on a physical disk.

  • it's pretty good for this specific purpose. it has an open source inkscape plugin written in python for it, so I don't need to use proprietary software. however, it also needs printed alignment marks, and it can only read them off a white or red background; I've tried printing on green paper and it was not happy with it. I can work around it by gluing a black and white alignment border around the page, but that cuts down on the usable area slightly.

    overall, good for the $50 I paid for it lol

  • My favorite static site generator by far is Eleventy, which you can learn by reading their sample code at eleventy-base-blog. It uses NodeJS which runs on all major platforms, and it generates plain old HTML that you can put on any static host. I played with several of the generators on the Jamstack list, and decided that this is the one I'm most comfortable recommending. It has a very high power-to-effort ratio, you can do some really useful stuff with very little knowledge. I'm using it on my personal site, https://nycki.net/, to automatically generate a "navbar" on every page, plus an RSS feed for my blog. It's also nice for generating "prev/next" links under articles.

  • unfortunately most controllers with back buttons don't let you re-bind them in the host OS, with the Dualsense Edge being a notable exception. I've bought a Dualsense Edge, and, unfortunately, I can't recommend it. You're paying $80 too much just for 4 extra buttons.

    my controller of choice is a pre-owned Sony Dualshock 4 (like $30 on ebay) plus this $30 DIY Back Buttons kit from eXtremeRate. This new and improved kit allows you to save up to 6 different "profiles", so you can have different mappings for different games. the mappings are saved on the controller itself, however, it won't sync them with Steam. and they don't function as "function buttons", they're limited to acting as a "clone" of another button on the controller.

    at first I was unsatisfied with this -- what's the point, if I can't use all eight face buttons and both stick clicks and four more back buttons, all at the same time, right? except... in hours of playtime, I've never run into a situation where that mattered. Most games either keep your thumbs on the sticks, in which case you can have the back buttons act as ABXY, or else you keep your thumbs on the face buttons, in which case the stick clicks and trigger clicks are available. plus you have the touchpad click, which really is a separate button that Steam recognizes.

    I've never had any problems using this controller with linux. as far as the OS is concerned, it's just a ps4 controller, and the support for those is quite good.
