Yep. I suspected something like this. Either from the voice rec or the way it emulates keypresses. Good to know, thanks!

The LeGo built-in controllers. They get a lot of shit for being weird and tbh I get it, but they suit my cartoonishly large hands. The detachable feature is pretty useful too since I can use it for Actual Work(tm) in public without getting looked at like a freak.

.mod files for music. 3-5mins+ of music a piece with a storage footprint in the KB range. Mostly free, tons available online. Check out Mod archive for an easy web interface or ZXTune if you're on android.

I don't know how to feel about this.

Where did you get this? If the signature and date is correct, this is stunning. Doing this kind of thing in '89 required some serious commitment. Still does, but modern pixel art tools are a ton easier.

I have had this happen. Mostly with weird, old, or cheap (or some combination thereof) hardware. Like sometimes the connection will hitch for a moment then three or four letters will come out backwards. Couldn't say for sure what the cause is but I suspect either the controller in the board itself is jank, or there's some kind of protocol / buffer mismatch. I have no solution, but it's not just you.

I switched to Kvaesitso from Nova. It takes a lot of getting used to because it does most stuff differently, but I'm finding it light, efficient and functional.

Timing and length of ads won't be consistent between users so this approach doesn't work.

Using a different client won't help if the ads are injected directly into the video stream.

Not sure it strictly counts as Grand Strategy as it's more of a sandbox, but X4 might be up your alley on the sci-fi front. Build a galaxy spanning empire from a single ship; complete missions, mine, trade, explore. You -can- fly the ships, but you don't have to. You can just sit in a station issuing orders.

I'm pretty sure I tried the desktop app method at some point. Didn't work at all for me but I can't recall why.

Huh. That actually sounds familiar now that you write it out in full. I guess we're both right.
