It seems like the developer might do that, but I imagine we can't have any guarantees from a free and ad-free app that aren't given

It seems like the reason that cheats were removed is because of public leaderboards

Play Store 3D Pinball Space Cadet Download

From the article:

If you grew up in the Windows XP era, than you probably spent hours playing its iconic free game, “3D Pinball Space Cadet.” Now, “Space Cadet” pinball has been ported to Android, and it’s completely free.

One of the many things that Windows XP will be remembered for is the pinball game that essentially everyone who ever used the operating system played at some point or another. The game has been immortalized many times, and now it’s available on Android.

Developer Kyle Sylvertre used a decompiled version of Space Cadet Pinball from k4zmu2a on GitHub to bring the game to the Google Play Store for Android users. The game is optimized for touchscreens with the left and right sides of the display acting as the triggers, and you can also tap the far right side to use the ball launcher. The game runs in portrait mode, supports 18 languages, integrates with Google Play Games for a leaderboard, and is less than 5MB in size.

And it’s all completely free too.

There are no ads or in-app purchases here, as the developer “just wanted to see it on Android with a Google Play leaderboard.” On that note, cheats are disabled to keep the integrity of that leaderboard, but the developer hints that cheats might come back with an option to turn off the leaderboard.

In any case, it’s a nice hit of nostalgia. Drop your high score in the comments below.

So, there is at least one point that makes this make sense and maybe a second if I am reading it correctly. Would you care to hear it out? Or would you not be interested in hearing more? (Hopefully I remember to check back here. I have 0 clue what not-google google has to say about this tbh)

Wired’s Attack on Privacy in c/[email protected]

I think we can agree that Nazi's are not something we want to assocuate with. Help me understand, what would you do? How would you limit the service to prioritize[s] privacy in order to protect human rights defenders, journalists, and everyday users who value their privacy but then also filter out Nazi's? How would this be different from TOR?

"Made up of" -> the non profit consists of software that must be free and open source..?

Any recommendations for "positive" science debunking sites or creators? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

If she's arguing for ... crap then she should probably stick to Science.

tldr/w: I probably should've only doe this bit here and on her being a physicist versus a science communicator

Humorously enough, she also has a video for that Basically she talks about:

  • Why "doing your own research" should be poked at

* Topics she doesn't have a PhD in and has been told she shouldn't talk about

* On being a physicist versus a science communicator

  • Main video points
    1. When not to do your own research (When there isn't enough research) 2.(?) Reasonable expectations (Why she doesn't talk about UFO's, a plug for support to do a video on 'Experts', limits of Google/internet, what is relevant for understanding? )
    2. Be honest with yourself (Acknowledge what you dont understand, erroneous mental short cut example)
  1. Acknowledge biases

Rest of video not as relevant to your point

Do your own research. But do it right. [Video] Now where's that bot at..?

This is the response I wanted to see but since people seem to hate watching videos (from creators they don't know), iirc the tldw; balancing bulbs coming to full power immediately (as opposed to gradual warm up) and brightness with life span. The 100 year light bulb is cool, but not ideal for actually lighting a room

Question (no solution I'm afraid): Do you use the system back button/swipe or the Voyager back button in the top left?

I had that problem especially after refreshing the page to see if there were new comments

(Suggestions) Looking for an app the echos what you say (lemdro.id)
 

Hi all I am looking for an app recommendation that echos what you say into it. The regular voice recording apps are good, but I am just trying to hear pronunciation of multiple words and don't want to delete a bunch of small files every time. If it can loop the last recording that would also be great TIA

Are there any good Android browsers that offer AI summarization of articles and a good reader mode? in c/[email protected]

Not necessarily what you are looking for, but maybe sometuing useful until you do find a better solution. It summarizes artivles, but you can't give it articles to summarize

Docker & Reverse Proxies (kbin.social)

Mooching off this other post

Primary question: What do people do for their reverse proxies (and associated ACME clients)? Do you have a single unified one? Or do you use separate proxies for each stack? Or some mess in between?

My use case question: For example, I have a (mess that is a) Nextcloud instance with a separate stack with nginx and ACME, a SearXng that wants to run caddy (but has shoved into the nginx).

But now I have a Lemmy docker that has a custom(?) nginx instance, should I just port it to my existing nginx or run them side by side?
