You remember #ZSNES, your first #SuperNintendo #emulator ?
Here's « Super ZSNES », the comeback but with refinements. Entire #SNES graphics processing is no longer handled by the CPU but the GPU using shaders, not just filters but the entire display : sprites, transparency, backgrounds, Mode 7 … and this makes possible high resolution without using an upscaler, to add a whole range of filters and even to have a true 16:9 mode 🎮
All agree 🫠

What's great (no) is that the #patriarchy adapts to new technologies : when you’re a woman using #AI, you’re "incompetent", whereas a man is "pragmatic" 💩
A statement by @volla@mastodon.social OS about the lock incoming :
« #Google's announcement that it will only allow apps from the Google Play Store to be installed on stock #Android has caused irritation among users. First things first: #VollaOS is not affected by this, as it is based on open source Android (#AOSP) and remains open source itself. In addition to the #AuroraStore, users will still be able to install and use apps from #FDroid or other sources in the future. »

Did you implemented something ? Is there a known workaround ? Thank you in advance 🤓
« On Android 16, a regular app with no special permissions can leak the user’s real IP, even with “Always-On VPN” + “Block connections without VPN” turned on. Those two settings are supposed to be the hard guarantee that nothing leaves the device outside the tunnel.

« Biological Link Between Music and Bonding Identified »
« #Music has long been the centerpiece of human rituals, from tribal dances to modern concerts. Now, a unique study has identified the biological “why”. The study reveals that listening to harmonically consonant chord progressions during face-to-face interaction physically strengthens the brain circuits responsible for #social connection and emotional processing. » on #NeuroscienceNews

« Caltech researchers have quantified the speed of human thought: a rate of 10 bits per second. However, our bodies' sensory systems gather data about our environments at a rate of a billion bits per second, which is 100 million times faster than our thought processes […] Why can we only think one thing at a time while our sensory systems process thousands of inputs at once ? » 🤔
