oh yeah Firefox OS kinda lives on in KaiOS (though that's closed-source) powering feature phones like the Nokia 8110 revival

it's almost as if capitalism heavily favors monopolies huh

I understand why Firefox OS was cancelled but gosh at the time a mostly-webapp OS with Mozilla's handwriting on it sounded really good. Ubuntu for phones was afaik the first time someone really committed to the phone-turns-into-a-desktop thing

like, I quite like Android 12. It's come a long way. But I distinctly recall walking into a store and trying out Ubuntu mobile and I think also Firefox OS? and it was cool and felt like finally someone was trying something new in a pretty stale marketplace

kinda wanna get a pinephone just to boot stuff like Sailfish, Lune OS and Mobian and play around with it. Dream of a time where there's more than two mobile operating systems.

I really like how neatly the xStation sits inside the console, makes it really easy to replace the SD card too

maybe not during the plague but you know

Check out what I just installed

the Japanese Sploon 3 website was updated with some new pictures n stuff https://www.nintendo.co.jp/switch/av5ja/index.html

ayy seems like Firefox, Thunderbird and VS Code work fine in native Wayland. Been a while since i checked but that's great because Firefox in Xwayland keeps producing fun graphical glitches and in general it's good to have a bit more performance

I wonder how much work it'd be to replicate the system shown in the Mother of All Demos in a modern web browser

hit Superstar (on easy lol)

Good news, the SingStar microphones work in Lifeline (2004)

it's kinda funny how different regions' Singstar discs with the same name can have completely different track lists, like SingStar Pop US and UK have four songs in common (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_songs_in_SingStar_games_(PlayStation_2))
