Looks like Redwood, sadly, is no longer under active development as of a couple months ago.


I'd recommend you change the name of your project sooner rather than later, Tasker is a well established app in the Android power user community for automating various tasks (albeit without AI)


Yeah probably if I were to take it seriously! Thanks for the rec


You’re fine, trust me. Mac and android apps that do different things often have the same names.


Yeah I know and agree. I use like dozens of tools with same names, many very similar products. But those that are genuinely confused and provide feedback I appreciate. Those that are hostile that just seem to follow "misery loves company", I like to be sarcastic with. Seems to be a win win with both sides (I can be a smart ass).

Appreciate it!


It shows up as a Christmas tree for me on my phone in portrait mode. In landscape mode the braille is messed up.


As a Kotlin multiplatform developer myself, this is wonderful to see!


If you're using an HDMI converter then that's most likely your reason for Hydro Thunder not working. Hydro Thunder notoriously doesn't work well with VGA output (HDMI converters for the Dreamcast usually convert the VGA signal)


I figured out how to fix Hydro Thunder's compatibility issues last year (it would very briefly change the pixel clock). You can either use a Codebreaker code to fix the game if you're running from a real disc, or if you use an ODE, you can patch the disc image.

This reminds me, I remember back in early 2000s hex editing games to force 60hz on my PAL Dreamcast. This looks like a similar idea. Thanks.

To be honest I now pretty much just play Dreamcast games via the redream emulator on my steam deck and pc under my TV. Though obviously there are drawbacks with emulating. Every so often I bother to setup my Dreamcast with my ossc and play on real hardware.


VGA to my ossc is usually how I connect to my TV. But yes I believe you are right, it's a vga issue too


Really digging the IRIX-style CSS theme on this website.


Flutter/Dart, yes, React Native/Javascript, no. With RN the app's code runs via an embedded JavaScript engine, and even when, say, Hermes is being used, it's still executing bytecode not native machine code.

Also important to note that any code that runs on Android's ART runtime (i.e. Kotlin and/or Java) can get some or all of its code AOT-compiled to machine code by the OS, either upon app install (if the app ships with baseline profiles) or in the background while the device is idle and charging.



They were considered "beta" releases, the last "stable" version was 8 years ago and users were discouraged from actually using such an old version. This is just codifying what has already been the case for a while, that the formerly "beta" releases are stable enough for daily usage.


Working fine with me under Wayland, on Ubuntu 24.04 + Gnome 46
