Do we have a non-threads version of the video. Don’t know if it’s cause I don’t have an account but the video doesn’t load for me so all
- Comment on What first emulation handheld would you recommend? 2 days ago:
For me my favourite has been the RG34XX the GBA looking one. Due to nostalgia and the fact that I mostly play GBA games, but it works great for PS1 and SNES etc too.
I value silent buttons and a dim screen since I mostly play at night in bed beside my significant other and thankfully unlike most anbernics, this one is pretty silent compared to most. It could be better but manufacturers seem to not care about how silent or dim their handhelds can be so I often open up mine and mod them with foam and vinyl in specific places. Doing that to this one has made me pretty happy with it, whereas with my previous ones I never even really got close to what this one was like by default. Mostly thanks to them not using cheap clicky switches for the triggers.

You sound fun
- Comment on If fossil fuels aren't vegan that would mean almost nobody is actually vegan. 1 week ago:
Vegan has always been about doing the best you can in reducing the harm you do onto others and the environment as much your able to. Some vegans absolutely will refuse the use of petrol but most will see it as a current necessary evil they have to deal with and just reduce when able to in their current modern lives.
- Comment on What if LGBT adopts a white and grey striped flag to replace the rainbow? Then Florida would have to abolish crosswalks entirely. 1 week ago:
Isn’t the rainbow meant to represent the spectrum. Like how rainbows show the visible spectrum of light?

I miss how good of a character early pierce was. Shame that chevys behaviour made Dan write him differently as time went on.

Ooo ill have to remember to take a pic of any cool benches i see now
- Comment on Google gets to keep Chrome, judge rules in search antitrust case 2 weeks ago:
I moved to DDG because I felt Google results were getting worse. You would search for something specific and instead just get varying degrees of the same article on different sites about it instead.
Then I felt DDG was getting worse in just not always getting what was related, so I’ve moved to qwant.
Other than not always getting geo-related results, the results have been the best I’ve seen in a while so I’ve stuck around for now.

Google pay being shut down is news to me. I still pay contactless with Google pay and also for paying on websites…

- Comment on Our Channel Could Be Deleted - Gamers Nexus 3 weeks ago:
Isn’t this a bit disingenuous to why they originally started to change the algorithm though?
People figured it out and started abusing it by spinning up proxy websites that would just link to the sites they wanted higher up in the rankings. You could argue Google only became an advertising company so that they could regulate that whilst also taking a slice.
I’m not arguing that they’ve since lost their way though.

That’s a good idea to run through it a few times before using it proper, thanks.

Ah so i might be thinking leaving a service running is worse than it actually is then?
The motherboard has two networks ports and a card with another two. There’s also some fibre ports but i imagine I’ll never end up using them haha.
I don’t actually really know much about firewalls at all yet though

Is there a cfw yet or other homebrew? Or we just at the start and they’ve just found the door in so far?
- Comment on This CEO laid off nearly 80% of his staff because they refused to adopt AI fast enough. 2 years later, he says he’d do it again 4 weeks ago:
Because he asks the ai what’s best but the chatbot always treats it as a loaded question and it wants to be seen as helpful so it finds a way to agree yes-man style.

I’m in the UK and was fine for me. Have you left your porn vpn on?
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 5 weeks ago:
Final Fantasy VII Kingdom Hearts II (or BBS depending on the day of the week) Persona 4 Golden
To be honest these three could be different any day of the week. I play more than just RPGs but because these are heavily story driven they stick in the front of my mind more when it comes to these questions.

Best solution would be to not use antiquated systems for testing for human consumption, a method that isn’t even that indicative of how it would react to a human anyway.

Instead you see GPUs release for the same price as, or more than, a current gen console every two years.

Them being told they’re timed exclusives isn’t really the problem being discussed though. Seems weird to invalidate a console having a game just because it’s available elsewhere. If you don’t already have a PC, a PS5 for it’s performance is way cheaper than getting the PC equivalent.

I hope this stops it from being laggy. It’s awful on big picture mode/gamescope

I really liked LMDE. I eventually moved to arch though because I’m a tinkerer at heart. If I need stability without constant updates though, a Debian based distro is my go-to. LMDE for a desktop, or just straight up Debian with no thrills for a server.
