That’s pretty much what they did anyhow, just with way more steps.

Have you installed it on an NES yet? Because that kinda happened: https://www.tomshardware.com/software/linux/you-can-sort-of-run-linux-on-an-nes-demo-shows-a-unix-like-os-running-completely-on-the-nes
“Fiscal conservative” was always just a reputable seeming veneer for “we’d rather let poor people die than tax the wealthy at the same rate as everyone else”.
It’s not bad if you have money. Southern Italy is getting pretty toasty, though.
And board game players!
I’m sorry, but yes. She couldn’t resist my encyclopedic knowledge of self-hosted streaming options.
All spouses can be taught to use Plex or Jellyfin. It just takes the right approach and some determination. Mine is now sailing the high seas with the finest of us.
Does it look purple to you too?
Little Grandpa story time:
Ponies are generally nicer than horses, but I was raised believing ponies were angry, vicious little assholes. My father was bucked off of a pony in his twenties, causing him to break a rib and paralyze half of his diaphragm. Being the actual asshole in this story, he never stopped to think that maybe he was too heavy and too drunk for a pony, so he spread pony hate throughout his life. I want angry ponies as I dislike my father and on a primal level think they’d keep me safe from people like him, like two pissy, grass eating charms to protect against narcissists.
But how else will they get a bigger house? Nicer, larger yacht? More private jets?
Like, I kinda understand the “more more more!” mentality. As my income has gone up over the years, there’s always something more my monkey brain tells me I should want. A nicer, more comfortable car. A new video card. Two angry ponies. You know how it is. I tell it to shut up because I have more than enough already.
I’m not a sociopath, though, so at no point has my monkey brain told me to enslave others so I can have nicer stuff.
I’m so sorry. I’ve been in a similar situation and I know how it just makes you feel gutted. I’m glad you’re free of someone like that, though.
I had a co-worker who bought into the NFT scam hard. He even had a virtual room on his phone to display his multi-thousand dollar “investments”. He collected all his favorite Avengers or some shite.
Guess how much they’re worth now.
I used to love Breyers. Remember how their claim on a tub of ice cream tubs was ‘only X ingredients’? Now it reads like a chemistry experiment and tastes similar.
That’s what we did. We were told the negative criteria were frequent driving, night driving, and all the driving BS you’d expect - hard stops, fast corners, etc. The company used a phone app, so we only installed it on my phone, had it disabled most of the time, and enabled it once or twice a week for a painfully slow drive to the grocery store just around the corner.
We had an amazing score which resulted in… No discount! We actually paid more. We got some bullshit low percentage off which was simultaneously offset by a mid-year rate increase. They claimed they had to reevaluate our rates any time they added a discount. Total bullshit.
Here’s my setup. We own a 65" LG G3 and I often game on it. We sit about 4 meters away. I’m a PC gamer and run a 3080. For what it’s worth, I have 20/10 vision (although the trade-off is I’m a bit far sighted).
While I can see a difference between 1080p and 4k, it’s pretty minimal for both 3D and 2D, to the point where I have to be looking for it. When I’m playing a game, it’s not really noticeable at all. It’s a bit more noticeable up close but I never have cause to sit just a meter away. This has all been confirmed by my wife and multiple friends and family members who have checked out our setup prior to buying a new television or done the same comparison themselves.
We even did a fun experiment (I’m a scientist so I love experiments). We ran the same game in 4k or 1080p with otherwise identical graphics settings, but with the resolution chosen at random by someone else, and tried to discern the resolution at our normal sitting distance while playing the game as we normally would. The results were equivalent to choosing randomly.
Lastly, a friend was all for buying an 8k television prior to my 1080p/4k demonstration. They now have the even larger 77" version of my television and, at about 5 meters away, the difference is still pretty minimal.
So I happily game at 1080p with the settings cranked up.
Good point. I’m curious how the total amount of energy and resources utilized to grow, harvest, and char algae compares to direct CO2 removal. Ultimately, I just want something that works without generating another issue.
There’s a ton of misinformation on this post and some of those spreading it seem to be vigorously doing so.
I’d be unsurprised if some .world’ers crash the comments with liberal hot takes.
I did my part and am now a vassal of Lord Torvalds.
Marketing is truly the worst. A friend of mine studied psychology and his classes were inundated by industry trying to convince them to go into marketing.
You can’t interface fairly and honestly with people. No, you have to use how their brains work to trick them into buying your products!
