The Game (The 7th Guest theme song) cover by Los Coronados on Scarlet Moon Halloween Volume III in c/[email protected]

from The Fat Man:

Here's the first of some surprises I'm throwing out there for October. #1, this cool Halloween album. Loads of sweet scary arrangements of game tunes from fellow game composers. The fifth track is my own The Game from Trilobyte Games #The7thGuest, played by my surf band #LosCoronados and featuring a wild #moog solo by keyboard legend (and good friend) Adam Holzman. Next surprise...might there be a video? Stay tuned! Tagging David Ari Fischer

[WR] Mario 64 - 16 Star blindfolded in 19m43s by Bubzia (www.youtube.com)

The world first sub 20 minute time in the Super Mario 64 - 16 Star category blindfolded speedrun has finally been achieved. After 10 Months of restless grinding, 118 days / streams of practice, runs, and more, the most ambitious goal in blindfolded SM64 has finally been broken. Bubzia has broken the previous world record by more than 40 seconds, with a final time of 19 minutes and 43 seconds.

The sub 20 minute barrier is an achievement that many people strive for when they start out speedrunning visually. Bubzia has written speedrunning history by achieving this milestone while entirely blindfolded. More than 7.5 years after his first blindfolded 16 Star speedrun, this is what the speedrun has evolved into.

I am so incredibly happy that I pushed through all the hardships that this challenge has thrown into my face. It has been a really fun blast, there have been so many new viewers to blindfolded speedruns in general, and many sticked to me grinding this challenge daily for the last year.

I honestly don't have much to say about the run, it can still be improved and maybe I will return one day. But as cliché as it might sound, the much more important part than me breaking this milestone and the world record is the absolutely amazing and kind community that I have. Thank you all so incredibly much!

There will be more blindfolded speedruns in the future, stay tuned! 70 Star will be broken next!

This special performance of "The Game" from The 7th Guest features the original composer, The Fat Man himself, along with talent from San Diego's Mid-City Community Music group making their recording debut, and an incredible solo from legendary keyboardist Adam Holzman who has performed with Miles Davis, many other jazz legends, and on his own renowned recordings. Scarlet Moon Halloween Volume III is available on all digital storefronts and streaming platforms today.

Deus Ex Randomizer v3.2 Happy Halloween! in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

EDIT: This has been hotfixed in v3.2.1, along with a new tweak for the Halloween modes!

Turns out the lighting was a bit dark for some people, and since during October the cosmetics affect the regular randomizer modes too, we will be releasing a hotfix soon. For now remember that you can use the flashlight without any energy cost, and you can also increase the Brightness Boost settings in the Rando->Visuals menu. You can also disable the memes setting entirely in Rando->Gameplay.

Trailers

Happy October 1st (depending on your timezone)! Here's a trailer for our new Halloween modes!

If you don't know what Deus Ex Randomizer is, then here's our trailer which shows a breakdown of how it works:

Here's a trailer for WaltonWare mode. WaltonWare mode is focused on quick wins by completing a single bingo line, and increasing difficulty after every win. The bingo goals are all scaled to their minimum settings and you start in a random area. All bingo goals will be completable within just a few maps!

See the full README here. Also check out our Discord and Mods4Ever.com

subreddit CSS doesn't work on new reddit? lol I had no idea

but if they scrap old.reddit then I see a nice big wave of new Lemmy users coming, and we're much more ready for it this time

There are so many ways for mods to effectively destroy a subreddit or redirect it while remaining public.

custom subreddit CSS: black text on black background

Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible in c/[email protected]

I feel like internet users have become so lazy, stubborn, and resistant to change. I'm pretty sure it used to be easier to get people to move to new things like new forums, Xfire, Ventrillo, IRC, ICQ, AIM... people used to try new things

Cylobian Sunday! I noticed their Myspace page has 3 unreleased tracks https://myspace.com/cylobotnia

LAB Nostalgia
Laughing and Barking
Burn the Mill

But Myspace songs don't work anymore. Anyone know where to get these?

"Laughing and Barking" seems like it was previously called "Laughin and Barfin" here: https://web.archive.org/web/20071230010703/http://www.myspace.com/cylobotnia

GitHub - Lumorti/Quandoom: A port of DOOM for a quantum computer in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

the README was interesting

It is a well-known fact that all useful computational devices ever created are capable of running DOOM. Despite decades of active research, there is yet to be developed a single practical use for quantum computers. This changes today, with the release of Quandoom, a port of the first level of DOOM designed for a quantum computer, given as a single QASM file, using a mere 70,000 qubits and 80 million gates. Although such a quantum computer doesn't exist right now, Quandoom is efficiently simulatable on a classical computer, capable of running at 10-20 fps on my laptop using the accompanying lightweight (150 lines of C++) QASM simulator.

Flavors of markdown are slightly different, but they share a lot in common. Also Boost has slightly different rendering than the Lemmy website UI, specifically with the spoiler tags
