They did though. It was shit but I can confirm it existed for reasons that I don’t think I’m still under NDA for but I’d rather not risk it… did you know that there’s a conspiracy theory about a Nazi base in Antarctica?

On Bazzite, and I use Heroic. It’s great for GOG and Epic store games.

My roommate mentioned it a few days ago, and I found out this evening that her and her girlfriend are both using it. While it may have started off as an astroturf, it’s legit now.

Does Jimmy Carter’s ghost have some unfinished business?

My roommate mentioned the app a few days ago before this was in the news and I found out earlier this evening that her and her girlfriend are both using it. This is (at least somewhat) real.

I tried, it’s not detecting anything. I get the pop-up about SMBus but I don’t think that’s relevant here? And I found a thread on r/openRGB about my specific laptop but the mods closed the thread before the poster got any help. There’s a Lemmy community but based on the locked thread on Reddit I really get the impression they don’t want to help.

EDIT: It’s possible Acer did something scummy with this laptop, I’ve found some interesting projects reverse-engineering Acer’s crap software to work on Linux and a lot of dead ends and at least one conversation about flashing the bios which no thank you, lol. Also a funny conversation on GitLab “By the way, the link you’ve provided is my Github 😄”. I’ve looked into this before and after about a half hour I decide I don’t care about RGB enough for even the half hour I’d already spent.

companion software for RGB

Yeah, that’s the one thing I lost when switching to Bazzite. I’m on an Acer Predator and I’m stuck with auto fan controls (which work fine) and I can’t customize RGB. There’s options to replace the Predator Sense program to get that working on Linux but I just don’t care enough to mess with it.

Which stadium does his current subscriber count fill now?

It’d be incredible for deaf people being able to read captions for spoken conversations and to have the other person’s glasses translate from ASL to English.

Honestly I’d be a bit shocked if the AI ASL -> English doesn’t exist already, there’s so much training data available, the Deaf community loves video for obvious reasons.

many Americans are physically beating their children

I think it really depends on what you define as beating. Spanking was incredibly common in the South 20-30 years ago and 10 I would have said it’s still fairly common (and by south, my experience was in central Florida, parts of which actually are deep south). I’m glad it’s become less common because it actually is physically beating a child and shouldn’t be acceptable. But I’d say it still is.

As a trans man, I’ve found that one of the more horrifying nominally gendered childhood things that I share with way too many cis men is the trauma of the line if you don’t stop crying I’ll give you something to cry about. It’s fucked up.

I’d happily recommend it to an adult on a tight budget, but it’s not premium. It’s a lightweight, soft plastic with a textured surface where you’d want it that I think feels nice but I can see why some might not. It will not survive an afternoon with an eight year old with anger issues, but I treat mine with some care and put it back in the (very cheap and flimsy, but included) plastic case it came with and I’m not worried about it. It’s decent enough, imo.

The problem with recommending controllers is that so much of this is subjective. I wanted something that felt more like the Switch buttons than my wired PDP Afterglow Xbox controller did (hate that thing), and what I got was exactly what I wanted and was impressed for what I spent on it. I don’t have an 8BitDo Ultimate 2C to compare it to which seems to be the direct competition in the price point (seriously, check out the Retro Game Corps vid ) - and there were some trade offs for both - 8BitDo was maybe slightly more premium feeling but similarly light and had Android only Bluetooth and wouldn’t work with my Switch, the GameSir has firmware upgrade issues (don’t upgrade the firmware!). Honestly, if you can get the 8BitDo, that might be the better choice for your use case - with the dongle it has a higher polling rate so less input latency, but I’m not playing anything where I’d even notice that. Also I suspect I prefer the ergonomics of the GameSir, but again that’s subjective. Or just buy one of the more expensive 8BitDo controllers, it sounds like you’re on less of a tight budget than I was.

I’ve had a Gamesir Nova Lite since September, and I strongly prefer playing games with a controller whenever possible so I’ve used the heck out of it, and I’ve had no problems. I really like how the buttons and joysticks feel and it’s supposedly got hall effect joysticks. I only use it on Bluetooth so not sure how it is with the dongle, but it has one. It’s on Amazon and they’ve got their own site to order from that does worldwide shipping. For the $25 I spent on mine, it’s a lot nicer than you’d expect from the price, I’d assume it’s similarly cheap in the EU. Retro Game Corps did a side by side video with an 8BitDo a while ago. The company marketed the shit out of it to influencers, but it’s legitimately good. (It doesn’t have a headphone jack and gyroscope, fyi, in case you care about that.)

Maybe I’m missing something obvious here, but how do you use the stove?

Wasn’t this basically the plot to Michael Crichton’s novel Timeline?

I agree with everyone else saying this is probably an Alyx sequel for the Deckard headset they’re developing…

But if it’s legit HL3 it’ll be hilarious if they announce it on April 1st.

There’s actually an iPho restaurant in the Twin Cities. No clue if it’s any good, but the name is fun.

I don’t think it’s super active anymore, but you can help change that!

Or you could figure out how to use Wiimotes or Joycons on Dolphin - I’ve done enough searching to know it’s possible, but not enough to tell you how.

I didn’t think your question is as absurd as everyone is acting like it is. It’s absolutely a silly thing to do, but I think a lot of the arguments against doing so would also apply to Mastodon, and wasn’t it revealed that that Trump’s garbage dump was running defedded Masto?

If you find one, I assume there will be many more terrible choices beyond just using Lemmy, and it’s not somewhere you’ll want to be.
