I'm working on Solitairle – a Yukon solitaire game where every board is guaranteed solvable: https://solitairle.com
Why? Most solitaire apps frustrate players with impossible games or endless randomness. Solitairle is designed for people (like me) who want a satisfying win through skill, not luck. Every day brings a new, solvable challenge, complete with helpful tools (back button, dead-end warnings) to keep it fun and frustration-free.
I’m especially interested in feedback from people who:
Enjoy casual puzzle games but get discouraged by unwinnable setups,
Value clean, minimalist interfaces without ads,
Have ideas for daily challenges or fun player stats.
Would love your thoughts: What frustrates you most about digital solitaire? What would make you want to play daily?
Explanation: HTTP Live Streaming slices the bitstream into “segments” (traditionally 6–10 s each) and only starts playing after it has downloaded several of them. Out of the box that means 30–60 s of startup and live-edge latency—fine for linear TV, terrible for anything interactive.
Apple’s LL-HLS spec shrinks those segments into “partial segments” and uses CMAF to let the player start decoding while a chunk is still arriving. With careful encoder tuning, HTTP/2/3 push, CDN support, and a compatible player you can reach 2–5 s, sometimes a bit lower—but every link in the chain has to cooperate, so implementations are still called “heroic” for a reason.
Safari plays HLS natively and on other browsers you can bolt on hls.js via Media Source Extensions. DASH, RTMP, SRT, etc. all need extra code or plugins, so HLS became the “safe default” for on-demand and broadcast-style streaming even though it isn’t low-latency friendly.
In the criminal trial related to the diesel scandal, four former Volkswagen executives were found guilty of fraud. The Braunschweig Regional Court sentenced two defendants to several years in prison, and two former employees received suspended sentences.
