I did a search and the last time this was posted about was nearly two years ago. I don't know if there have been any updates on the subject since then.

I see that there is a ublock filter suggested on the wiki, but that is not an option on some of the devices that I use to browse tildes.

Edit: Anyone who thinks it might be them, yes it is very specifically you. All of you. You know what you did. :)

Well, the time is about up for this month's CGA, so I hope everyone that gave Lufia II a shot enjoyed it and defeated the Sinstrals forever. JK, it's a prequel, we know they came back :)

Please feel free to talk freely about the game in the comments and let everyone know how far you got, what you liked, and what you didn't.

I was able to finish the game and I beat the ancient cave (my true goal) on my second attempt. Did anyone else give the ancient cave a try?

Our next host is u/Boojum with the amazing game The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. I'm super excited about this one, even though I've played it a dozen times, as it is my favorite Zelda game.

What have you been listening to this week? You don't need to do a 6000 word review if you don't want to, but please write something! If you've just picked up some music, please update on that as well, we'd love to see your hauls :)

Feel free to give recs or discuss anything about each others' listening habits.

I've been slowly convincing myself that I want to go to Africa, mostly because I haven't done a solo trip in a while, but also because I haven't been to Africa at all yet! Some of my team members are in Ghana and they sent me pictures of it, and it looked amazing. I definitely would love to go! I'm thinking of going during the week of Christmas only because it's probably my only time I'm available for the rest of the year. Any tips or places that I should be looking at?

(I also have some Scandinavian countries, Prague, or Scotland/Ireland on my docket, but I've been to Europe so much these last couple of years and I figure I'd need something new)

Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like work life balance, optimism and gog.galaxy. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was a frequent flyer.

But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the newspapers. It may not deserve its own post, but it deserves a wider audience!

Not sure where this goes but I am looking for an app to help fill in between other reading practice we do with our 5 year old.

This won't be the main tool to help them learn, just trying to find something fun to help learn a bit. Does anyone have recommendations for fun and educational reading apps?

As part of a weekly series, these topics are a place for users to casually discuss the things they did — or didn't do — during their week. Did you accomplish any goals? Suffer a failure? Do nothing at all? Tell us about it!

Hi
Seems we need to compile jpegli from git.

https://github.com/google/jpegli

I'm not able to do this at present.
Maybe a tildean person here is. :-)

I want to experiment and compare results with my installed mozjpeg.

Anybody know where there is a jpegli precompiled?
Something to drop into Linux usr/local/bin.
Or a windows executable to use with wine.
