  • Very interesting. I hadn't heard of Faircamp before, but really like the concept. Thanks for sharing! My (very) rough idea right now is to make a website that lets users 1. drag and drop audio files from their desktop into the browser, 2. arrange them to build a mix, and 3. use WebRTC to connect with the receiver, who can then install the PWA. If I could get that working, it would eliminate the need to use the command line, unless you want to permanently host a mixapp.

  • Hope it works out well for you! Beyond mixtapes, I think it could be an interesting way for artists to distribute their albums. Next project: write some songs... :-)

  • Thanks for checking it out! Yes, for now making a new mixapp does require using the command line, but I've been thinking about making that more intuitive for those who prefer different interfaces, perhaps with some kind of browser-based UI.

  • You and I know what to do with an m3u8 file, but the average person does not. This approach makes it dead simple to get your playlist to the receiver (by packaging it as a static webpage), and lets them persist it indefinitely for offline use (by installing it as a PWA).

  • For me the use case is 1. making it easy for the receiving party to receive and listen to your mix, and 2. enabling that mix to persist on their device indefinitely. Since I can't necessarily count on the receiver to have a working CD player set up, and managing a bunch of loose files is a lot to ask of some people, I see this as a way to lower the effort required of both the sender and the receiver.

    My theory is that the convenience of platforms like Spotify has eroded the cultural practice of music sharing that was so prevalent in the days of cassettes and CDs. I believe this practice can be restored, given appropriate tools. This is an attempt at developing such a tool.

    The files are cached using the Cache API. This is durable storage that persists until the user explicitly clears their browser data or uninstalls the app. Once someone installs the PWA and lets the tracks download, they can listen offline indefinitely.

  • Pretty rough, eh? Especially on the horizontally panning shots. I guess I could have upped the effective frame rate to 10fps from 5, but that would have taken twice as long to record, and I wanted to let my GameCube take a break :-) Thanks for checking it out!

  • Thanks for checking it out! Yep, all running on a real GameCube. I left the poor thing running for about a week to get this footage (it took a few takes to get right). All the code, plus a schematic for the hardware is available here: https://github.com/hunterirving/pico-crossing

    Bad Apple!! but it's in the GameCube version of Animal Crossing

  • I Made This @lemmy.zip

    I recreated Bad Apple!! in Animal Crossing's design editor

  • Thanks for checking it out! I actually finished the keycaps last, after all the other functionality. I figured if I was going that far, I might as well go all out.

  • I think the white sets (at least in the US) might have shipped with a non-charging stand? Pretty sure there were white sets released in Japan that included one, though. Sounds like a nice setup! Maybe I should start USBC modding some of my stuff, if only to pare down my Big Drawer of Cables.

  • It's a fun little hack! I like how it's alllllllmost practical, but not quite :-) The biggest limitation for me right now if that I have to stay within 10 feet of my WiiU console or it has a bad time.

  • Same here! That on-screen keyboard plagued me for years...

  • With all the talk of Nintendo remotely bricking Switch 2s, maybe I should unplug my GameCube's broadband adapter... just to be safe.

  • Wow, thanks for watching! Yes, the next big project will be Labo-related, though I might post another smaller project in the interim. Labo is such a fun concept. I guess I get why it wasn't a huge success, but I'm glad Nintendo gave it a shot anyway.

  • Thanks for watching! It was a lot of fun putting it all together.

  • Neat! Nah, I haven't done the USB C mod, but that looks pretty slick. I just use the charging cradle that came with the black WiiU deluxe set.

  • It's actually pretty comfortable though! Almost like playing Switch with split joycons.

  • Super deep cut (this might be my most obscure bit of Nintendo trivia as I couldn't find any images of it online), but have you ever seen the hidden wireframe models in Red Alarm? If you shoot very specific places in game, you can reveal low-poly 3D models of a Virtual Boy, Game Boy, and even a girl in a bikini... for some reason. I wonder if Nintendo's top brass were aware of that one when it shipped :-)

  • Thanks so much for watching! In the beginning, I really thought it would just be the typing automation, but as time went on I had more and more intrusive thoughts ideas for features to add.

    I happen to be a big fan of that 80s music video :-) I think this was the third time it's made an appearance on my YouTube channel.
