Heute mal auf Deutsch.

Kennt von euch jemand Die Fantastischen Vier? Und ich meine damit nicht die Superhelden aus den gleichnamigen Comics, sondern die Hip Hop Gruppe aus Stuttgart / Deutschland, die seit den frühen 90ern die Charts unsicher machen.

Obwohl ich die meisten Tracks der Gruppe kenne, habe ich das Album "VIEL" erst seit relativ kurzer Zeit (auf Vinyl) und als ich das Intro das erste Mal hörte, war ich total von den Socken.

It needed specific instructions though as well as a thorough understanding of the concepts and strategies used in the existing game code... which is more than 20 years old. However, when starting to wire up everything against the online networking for actual gameplay,... well, there is a german saying that goes like this: "Alles...

The game is more than 20 years old btw. I even started implementing Steam Achievements and new items. However… I suddenly stopped working on it and now it’s already over 6months since I had any...

I am using claude code to implement a mobile app around an underground queue based internet radio station that also features regular live shows. One of the most interesting facts to know about this is, that the whole platform my app is working with, features a 70s/80s style of a commandline experience and so I also wanted my app to look and feel like this.
