I've been waiting for something like this for a long time. I eve considered doing it myself. I do remember a while back that someone was asking about hooking a raspberry pi to that small screen..

I'm really loving this song DJ.

I forgot, do you play any instruments?

So yeah, Apple Keynote happened, and the iPhone X was revealed. Looks cool, but look at that price tag!

$999 for 3gb of ram and 64 gb of storage
$1,149 for 3gb of ram and 256gb of storage

In comparison, a OnePlus 5 with 8gb of ram and 128gb of storage is only $539.

Yeah, maybe you want that cool screen or Face ID or Animojis, but even then, is it worth 1k? Especially when smartphones half the cost(and even less) can do the job of a smartphone perfectly?

Remember this before you read this one comment: I'm not trying to be someone who is backing apple just because that is all I have used or something like that.

Anyway, doesn't iOS have much better optimization to use its memory more efficiently because its OS is not distributed to so many devices? Just a thought...

But what does annoy me is the bar at the top. The majority of software does not work with the bar that well. And I think they did claim bezel-less display but you cannot get the full viewing experience...?

Oh yeah and the $1000 price tag... Yeah I guess their products do "seem" to be premium, but... are they really? How well do they stack up against other competitors? And the OS limits a lot of the processing power they keep boasting about.

As for the button that leads to the latest release, nowadays some people put that in the first topic post with a reply to bump the topic. Implementing such button might be very complicated and confuse users since not everyone would use it the same way. Maybe having the first post of topic on top of every page would help?
The problem is, at least 50% of the projects I've been on, the manager doesn't edit the first post.

Maybe we could have the main post for release notes at the top at all times, no matter what page you are on.

Site Discussion & Bug Reports / Posting Improvements
January 19, 2017, 01:55:06 AM
As many have already noticed, posts on community websites are posting. This is not a horrible thing because IRC activity and downloads numbers are raising. People simply want an easier and faster way to communicate their ideas, however; this leads to the decline of posting. IRC is great, but users can't really share projects and other bigger things on IRC.

Enough talk of that, everyone should hopefully understand that.

I'm proposing that we lessen the complexity of posting. A large majority of people do not want to load a new web page just to start typing, then loading another web page to see your post added to the rest. So, a simple solution to this is having an add comment/post thing like Facebook has.

How do we do this?
This new feature would sit under the last post. We would need to condense the emojis and make it so you can quickly drag and drop any file that you need to upload. In fact, I think the whole reply box area needs to be smaller.
For things like bold, italics, and underlining, there should be a quick keyboard shortcut.
Also, things like hyperlinks and superscripts should only be accessed by right clicking.
There should be a button for you to click that sends you to the last major update for projects too. For example: Say you want to read the release notes for the latest version of Sorcery of Uvutu, it may be hard to find it because of the many posts that have come after the release post. This button will move you to the part of the page that has the release notes. The project manager would have to set the latest release post as the main post.
The Facebook like button at the bottom of each post should not be there.
The default amount of posts per page should be increased.

Final notes
I know that this doesn't seem like much of a fix, but I will also add more ideas.
Please feel free to add ideas or criticize.

You can probably also get a 3rd party service to repair your phone, but i recommend not waiting too long. We don't want a samsung to happen here ;)

Man, I just realized that that could happen.

General Help & Troubleshooting / iPhone Overheating
January 18, 2017, 12:23:16 PM
Hey everyone, I have a major problem here. I have an iPhone 6s, and lately, the battery has not been charging up farther than 86%, even after 6 hours of charging, the phone will randomly shut off saying it does not have any battery, though it has 75% or what not. It heats up A LOT when I use it. Keeping it plugged in heats it up so much that it gives me a temperature message saying it needs to sit for a while.   >:(

PLEASE HELP

In Tennessee, where I live, it is illegal to share your Netflix password.
It is also illegal to connect to wifi without explicit permission.

I bet this thing is still more powerful than my crappy Broadwell i3-5005U Acer Aspire F5 :trollface:
Lol, I have the Asus X540 with the i3-5020, this thing has the fans going the whole time! They are the loudest that I have ever experienced. They won't stop, even at idle.

Hey 123outerme, when do you plan on working on your next RPG? Is there going to be a second one of these? Great work by the way, I really hope that you continue releasing amazing works.  :P

Well, if I ever saw that as a kid, I would be scared- at least at first. Then, I would probably try to eat it all. I would soon feel sick afterwards.

E37, how do you get the will, inspiration, and motivation to do this? :P

I'm very happy to see that this project is going underway!
