this is awesome! I’ll have to test this out because gaming with the daughter has been limited to games that support it natively. I wonder if this can work with emulated games too?

comparison is the thief of joy

Just a hunch, since technological advancements seem to hit the public realm much faster in places like China, in the cities especially. I don’t know what the laws are like there, but I’ve heard rumors that there is less government regulations for technologies that can benefit the general public, like drones and automated metros. Oh yeah, and how could I forget about the robots they show off at conventions, to take the place of receptionists and other customer-facing positions.

Minecraft is the most popular best selling game of all time, and the single-player mode is still being updated. Granted, many people play on multiplayer servers, but still.

At the very least, you can still pirate it and play cracked multiplayer with friends.

I made the mistake of buying the game year ago, and bought a bunch of DLC at 50% or greater sales, and now the sunken cost fallacy has taken hold on me, and I still want to buy more . . . . (at least I’m broke so I can’t right now hehehaha)

Overcooked, Liars Bar, Ready or Not, Schedule 1, Elden Ring, Jackbox, etc . . . . . All work great as multiplayer titles on linux. There’s a great trove of fun games that don’t require kernel level anticheat because the the community of players isn’t as toxic.

it’ll definitely get the greenlight in countries like China before anywhere in the west, I believe

“Detachment 201: the Executive Innovation Corps”

Lol, as if AI technology in the military hasn’t been in the public zietgiest for at least the past 40 years

cheap and easy? I tried running it myself and ran into several hurdles, and gave up. How did you host it? VPS? Docker? Bare-metal?

no mention of tox chat, eh? Open source, p2p private chat, what’s not to like?

Author admits smartphones are ubiquitous, and doesn’t at all consider, in a hypothetical situation where everyone unanimously agreed to stop using them, where all this e-waste will go?

Also, how do you disillusion the millions of people that use them religiously?

I get the sentiment, but only a significant technologically literate society would really appreciate the need for greater control over their devices and actually possess the skills needed to modify and configure them.

Greed isn’t limited to any one economic system, I fear.

oh damn, I’ve never seen one in person, but I don’t really care about judgment by others, so if I could get some prescription lenses on those, that’d be ideal.

A manual focus version would be cool too. I don’t like the idea of having yet another thing to charge.

Just imagine if the eloquent words of the founding fathers were the norm of the type of content you see on tik tok. If that were the case, I would have joined a long time ago.

I don’t regret not deleting all my comments. For me, It’s a mishmash of helpful/comedic/observational comments that I don’t care that they have sold off for use as training data.

But, I just got shadowbanned, because of my VPN or something, so they aren’t getting any more!
