  • Requesting Assistance

    don't use pliers / force is all i can recommend, I recently ruined a headphone jack trying to get a broken tip out.

    some guides online say superglue on the tip of a cut cue tip or paperclip, and leave it there for a bit. buuuuut then some people in response said they got too much superglue on it as well.

    @lollapalooza it's https://www.1001fonts.com/gooddog-cool-font.html with the dots removed!

    I remember using it cause it looks like the Nintendogs font

    The price is annoying cause I basically sold myself on paying $300 for it, but then they hit you with ~$100 more for the stylus...

  • Browser Timeout: "This Screen will be closed."
    VGMooseundefined VGMoose

    I'm checking the switchbru survey responses, and people are still commenting asking us to remove the timeout...

    There's nothing we can do! I put it in bold in so many places! Sorry everyone!

    I'm at the point where I think people should individually reach out to Nintendo. We see hundreds of thousands of users using the DNS every month. I feel like they don't understand the potential user-base here.

  • The "reMarkable" tablet
    VGMooseundefined VGMoose

    Anyone seen this? https://remarkable.com It's a note-taking tablet with an epaper screen (very long battery life).

    Somehow I'm just now learning it runs linux+ssh out of the box, you can access the root account on it, and there's a whole community maintained set of programs for it too: https://toltec-dev.org

    All devices should be like this! Someone even made a browser for it: https://github.com/alex0809/netsurf-reMarkable

    Personally, here's an example of one of those early sites I made way back in the day: https://backpack.vgmoose.com/2008/ . This uses pure HTML and iframes to display the different pages.

    I thought I was so cool... Nowadays, the best example of a site from scratch that I'm proud of is probably the homebrew appstore web frontend: https://apps.fortheusers.org . This is coded in React and Typescript, which is a lot more advanced, but really you're just (eventually) building off those same basic starting concepts ideas.

    Hi! I've been making websites for a long time, too long really. It's great! If you want to start your own personal site, let's use this thread to give each other tips or support.

    I'll be checking in every day at least, so if you have a question, or need any tips, please feel free to ask!

    Initial starting resources:

    Development programs
    On PC: https://code.visualstudio.com/download
    In browser: https://vscode.dev

    Starter guide
    HTML: https://blog.hubspot.com/website/html

    Sites to host on:
    Github pages: https://pages.github.com

    If you've never ever made an HTML document ever, hubspot's guide looks pretty good. It goes over the basics of opening a file, editing, and previewing it. Once you have it looking how you want locally, hosting it is the next step.

    VSCode is a great starter IDE (or, text editor) that gets a lot of the basics right. Actually, I use VSCode for pretty much everything.

  • Suggestions for Default URLs?
    VGMooseundefined VGMoose

    At the top of the site header, there's a πŸ”— icon on the far list that will contain a list of websites. Currently, I've added a link to the BrowseDNS Discord.

    What are some good ones that work well on the Switch, and would be convenient there?

    I'll also take these suggestions into account for updating the "Useful Links" section of the Switchbru landing page.

    Ah, I think it used to work... You can tack /mobile onto a tumblr URL and it works better, but I'm assuming the login is broken?

    I don't think these users were actually signed in, and this was a bug with the "who's online" code regarding newly created accounts (see here)

    if you're old enough... drink in moderation I GUESS. Alcohol is fun at first, and definitely can help with social situations, but then it becomes the master of you and other ugly stuff.

  • How the new countdown timer works

    Do you mean over other websites? It's not possible unfortunately. Depending on the site, it may be possible to display it within an iframe, but not all sites support this.

  • How the new countdown timer works
    VGMooseundefined VGMoose

    Already got some feedback from the Switchbru user survey:

    Why is there a 20 minute timer on the homepage? Is it when it automatically kicks me out when it hits zero?

    I mean, the answer is yes, but this is explained on the landing page too. Changed the wording a little to make it more clear.

  • How the new countdown timer works
    VGMooseundefined VGMoose

    Yes! I just added that. Let me know how they both go, I've already noticed if you visit both sites you'll mess up one of the two timers (since they don't really keep track, just each independently count down from 20 min).

    Technically we could make it smarter and try to guess about the actual session, using this info. This would be a server side endpoint that counts how many of those "every second" requests have been made so far, and when it hits 600, it will close.

  • Switch Countdown Timer Added
    VGMooseundefined VGMoose

    Added a countdown timer to the Switchbru DNS landing page as well. Since BrowseDNS and Switchbru both have separate timers, if you do visit both pages, one after the other, your timers will not be in sync (the second page will start counting too late).

    Maybe it was a bug then in the "who's online" display for newly created accounts (since normally, a newly created account would be online right away). I'll see about resetting the "score", cause 60 something seems hard to beat.

    Right now we aren't approving duplicate accounts, because in the past people have used them to message others and pretend to be multiple people, but are still talking about this rule. Sites like gbatemp have a strict no duplicates policy and even temporarily ban users that are found to violate this.

    kind of subtle but we do have this "Links" drop down: Screenshot 2022-12-30 at 4.58.46 PM.png, no way to customize the content inside though
