Must be a partial outage then? I was using Music earlier today as well. On my phone I download most of my music so I might never notice an outage though.
Good point! I might not have noticed.

Seems both TV and Music are affected, I wonder if it's some storage service somewhere just totally degraded. I love CloudFlare for their total transparency reports about outages. I wish every other company would follow the same standard.
Been using Apple Music all day today, streaming. Have yet to encounter an issue.

These were my favorite part of Starsiege: Tribes. There was a modpack called Ultra Renegades that totally changed the gameplay and made it so twitchy and fun.
Loved Tribes! I mostly played Paintball mod from 2000-2004!

Such a good example of why everything is becoming js. Because it's where the users are. Anything that isn't in js will just languish comparatively.

"...because everything runs js*"
Javascript runs on ~70% of all devices worldwide.

Not a chance. As much as I respect all the work Valve has done for gaming...this doesn't understand the market.
PC gamers will play on their PC. Couch gamers will have a PS5 or an XBox. So who is this for, couch gamers that don't have one of those? Or PC players tired of playing on a monitor?
Don't get me wrong, it's cool, and I'm definitely the target market but feel like that's pretty tiny.
Most couch gamers want their GTA or Call of Duty, which, if I read correctly, this will not run.
Just to add I'm also in this boat. We have a ASUS ROG NUC in our living room and it's a pain logging into Windows (cant find an actual tutorial to skip that works) .
It's been a great entry way into gaming for my wife (lot's of cozy games) and I also play a few games from my steam backlog (Halo, Hades 2, etc). I don't feel like we're in the minority for what a couch system is used for but maybe.
The largest hurdle for steam in the living room so far has been controller support or lack of couch co-op games.
Huh, I had just been trying to look into whether there existed a "mini PC but with a GPU in it that's at least as good as the ones in game consoles."
(Or, to put that another way: fundamentally, I want a game console — a piece of well-integrated consumer electronics that lives unobtrusively in my entertainment center, hooked up to my TV, requiring no maintenance, controlled entirely with a Bluetooth gamepad. But I want it to enable me to run both 1. current-gen games at at-least-equivalent fidelity to the console ports of those games; and also 2. "all the games a Windows PC can run." So, anything on Steam, yes; but also, all the weird little indie games on itch.io that never make it to Steam; and old DOS/Win31/Win95 games (either as polished ports from GOG, or through various forms of virtualization/emulation I'd set up myself); and even the little freeware games floating about on the "old internet", that someone made in Game Maker or RPG Maker 2000 or even as a standalone Flash projector executable, way back when.)
The closest thing I had found to that description so far, that even might work for the use-case, was the ROG NUC.
I wonder how this compares to that?
We have the ROG NUC and absolutely love it for our living room. Not playing any crazy AAA ultra graphics games, but it's been great.
If I had known this was finally releasing, I would have waited though.

From the GitHub project:

The project itself has been deprecated
This should be higher up. Posting a deprecated library with this title is an interesting choice.
It may sound absurd:
But a website in which people can set their availability on a calendar. Kinda like Doodle. My requirements are:
- no account necessary
- timezone support
- not have to pay for it
Basically impossible to find something which fills those requirements.
So I am coding myself a handy tool.
For what? To coordinate people for the game Foxhole to take responsibility for certain areas so we always have a General Manager online
I absolutely hate Doodles mobile UI, this would be great.
I used to love Proton, but they focus too much on feature development instead of stability and fixing long-standing bugs. E.g. zooming has been broken for years in ProtonMail on iOS. Some emails won’t even render at all :(
FWIW, I have not had any issues with email rendering in the iOS app so YMMV. Have not noticed any zooming problems.
I'm thinking OpenAI's strategy is to get users hooked on these new features to push ads on them.
Hey, for that recipe you want to try, have you considered getting new knives or cooking ware? Found some good deals.
For your travel trip, found a promo on a good hotel located here -- perfect walking distance for hiking and good restaraunts that have Thai food.
Your running progress is great and you are hitting strides? Consider using this app to track calories and record your workouts -- special promo for 14 day trial .
Was thinking exactly the same. This correlates with having to another revenue stream and monetization strategy for OpenAi.
In the end, it's almost always ads.
