sometimes you forget just how sick technology can be big-cool

It's a rush of nostalgia for me because my first experiences with the worldwide web was via the dreamcast.

oh man, i remember browsing gamefaqs on my dreamcast for walkthroughs of RE: Code Veronica. that felt like the future

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 9 points 6 days ago

Same! I also remember getting save files for my vmu off the internet and that felt like magic.

[-] Dort_Owl@hexbear.net 11 points 6 days ago

You motherfucker, give me that Dreamcast.

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 9 points 6 days ago

It's flycast and it's easy to use!

OK where is the hexbear screenshot?

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 11 points 6 days ago

Sadly you really can't go on the modern web with the dc browser, here's some sites that work.

Heaven's Gate website working is really funny, guess it hasn't been modified since the Dreamcast released

[-] RedWizard@hexbear.net 10 points 6 days ago

What about https://diethex.net/ does that work? It's supposed to be a pretty light load.

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 8 points 6 days ago

Nope didn't work, at least not on browser 2.0

How about https://comlib.encryptionin.space/ ? Presumably it won't work cuz TLS.

I really want to add a no-TLS version so you can try and connect via that. Reading theory on the Dreamcast lmao. But eep.

Edit: I wonder if the browser has http/1.1

I hope you're not letting your seaman starve to death

I gotta fire that game up and see if I can use my microphone with it via flycast.
