      Yes and I’ve also seen it done on a guitar and Rockband drums.

      Probably some other ones aswell, I’ve seen Mario 64 on a saxophone.

          This guy uses an electric sax with a D pad on the back for movement and everything else is controlled by notes

          This guy uses regular sax and everything is controlled by notes

            Okay I kind of want to try some other games with my sax. Like sure it’s not as hard but dragon warrior 4 on the saxophone, I’m doing taloon’s chapter for a month and jamming in the weapon shop until I get that damn sword of malice the legit way. That sounds like a fun rehearsal.

            What happens when I just start playing along with the music when I’m grinding, yknow?

    The text in the last panel does not seem like native English. The original German version is more like “I code [while] dancing! I dance [while] coding!”

    Not to nitpick, but how would you do T9 with 8 inputs?

      that last digit was just whitespace and perids, we can do without.

      first, ever since I changed to dark mode, i no longer need whitespace,

      and I’m sure ladies will be happier without periods. win win

      The centre pad is also an input on the common PC dancemats, as well as there also being a start and select button at the top. So they actually have 11 inputs

      Well… I guess you could hop from button to button on your legless butt, but I don’t see how that would improve anything.

      There are other ways, for example Ximik_Boda designed T2, a “pro” input method for T9 keyboards. Pressing a key, such as 8/TUV, brings up a popup that shows the mapping of characters to the second key, here 1=t, 2=u, 3=v, 0=8. Every lowercase letter, number and symbol can be typed with exactly 2 key presses, and there is no annoying wait when typing words like “nonmonogamous” with 7 waits for the 6/MNO key multi-click to time out.

      Unfortunately, the order is important, for example 62 is n and 26 is %. Unordered pairs (9 keys and 2 legs) only allow for 36 combinations, which is not enough. 7² for 49 combinations plus two special keys, a modifier and a mode switch (lowercase/uppercase/navigation) seems to be optimal.

    Reminds me of this Bugemos strip.

    Silent (2010-

    So, my most silent PC is complete. A fanless power supply, SSD array…

    A passive processor heatsink with inherent 0.01 °C/W thermal resistance

    And to replace that pesky clicky keyboard, I combined a webcam and semaphore code

    I really should stop procrastinating and translate their whole backlog, I have it downloaded already…

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)

Web of Links
  • !linuxmemes@lemmy.world: “I use Arch btw”
  • !memes@lemmy.world: memes (you don’t say!)
