Scraper can grab video game maps and manuals automatically as part of it’s process if you want them for older games.

The whole cart and horse thing

I also wouldn’t say it’s sketchy. It’s just the overall political leaning of a lot of Lemmy is relatively left leaning and having those measures in place kind of demonstrates the vibe the instance is trying to create.

The level of censorship is going to be different depending on your instance and where you are posting to. A lot of instances are managed by individuals or small teams out of passion. They can do as they please and don’t have to pander to everyone for commercial appeal like Reddit or Tumblr. If someone doesn’t like what they’re doing they can join a different instance or create their own.

Instances can defederate from each other over these differences. A lot are defederated from the instance Exploding Heads because of their alt right content for example. From what I understand you can also report content to the administrators of your instance if it goes against their rules and I think they can remove it from appearing on your instance (or block the user that posted it). This isn’t going to stop it from appearing elsewhere.

Hell yeah. I tried to train one to feed me misinformation and encourage bad habits like drinking and driving and it was a lot more fun and lively than anything else I’ve seen

Yeah I feel like having control over the things you use is definitely a big part. Something that really hampers my enthusiasm for AI is that so much of it is out of my control and generally disconnected from me.

Having AI that I can modify and run locally on my devices seems a lot more sci-fi than something that can relies so heavily on the Internet and rigid responses.

Sorry about the wait. I kept forgetting to post it when I wasn’t on mobile!

I find it’s a lot of those ideal use cases I find futuristic. The RISC V architecture and Briar are kind of similar. They’re really neat and I could see some cyberpunk style uses for them but the drive for their adoption and the level of it just doesn’t seem to be there yet.

I’m glad they aren’t planning on releasing incrementally upgraded devices.

Retroid makes a lot of handheld emulators that are decent quality but it feels like they release a new model every few months that’s just slightly better than the last. It’s an easy way to feel cheated and hesitant about what you’re buying.

I feel like that really depends on how you view futuristic.

I think things with colored e-ink displays, USB C chargeable AA batteries, handheld emulators, 2230 NVMe drives, and USB C power portable displays are really cool but I feel like their availability these days has made them lose a bit of their futuristic luster. They would have blown my mind when I was a kid.

More niche products like Meshtastic and ESP32 Marauder devices are things I view as futuristic (and can be found for under $100).

Yeah. I feel like the headline also misrepresented the extent of what happened.

But the firm rejected claims about the extent of the damage caused by the unnamed individual, saying they “contain some exaggerations and inaccuracies”

Is probably the key takeaway and a good summary of what the article is about

I don’t think it’s a bad idea. I’ve used a lot of controllers in the past that have felt worse than the controls on Anbernics handhelds. If they are willing to switch things up and breakaway from the typical from the typical Switch Pro controller look a lot of third party companies use I think it could be cool

Carol and the End of the World is a show I just started and I seem to like it so far. I’m not sure how I didn’t hear about it. The animation style seems similar to others on Netflix but I can’t put my finger on what shows specifically.

I also watched all of From. It was okay but really gave me typical Netflix drama vibes. Like Dark and Yellowjackets. I don’t mind it. I’m kind of just along for the ride but twists and plot progression feel kind of forced or awkward. It’s a bit hard to explain

Valent is a KDE Connect Client for GTK desktops and I want to see if I can get it to work with my living room PC. It’s basically so I can use my phone as a mouse.

I’m also reinstalling all my Starred Valley mods on my Steam Deck after I installed Bazzite GNOME on it. There’s about 50 I think and there’s a lot of dependencies that apparently prevent me from just downloading them all from my Nexus Mods download history page and raw dogging them into my mods folder.

For those that want some additional details Brodie Robertson created a video on what was happening 3 weeks ago on how things were going into the lead up to this. Here’s the link. It’s 16 minutes long and kind of funny. It shows how mismanaged things were from the beginning

Two - and I don’t mean this in a snarky or dismissive way - you might believe you’re good at reading emotions, while not being as good at it as you think. I don’t know you, so that could be way off base, but it’s definitely something worth having a think about.

I’ve been thinking about this for a few days now since you commented this. I honestly think you might be right and it’s a kind of stunning realization for me.

I feel like it’s really present in my romantic relationships. There’s a lot of times I awkwardly handled things or caused something to veer off in a bad direction. Even now I’m still really bad for asking people I date if they’re mad at me whenever they’re upset and I don’t know why for example

I’ve got three monitors

Here’s another photo with details

Thanks for your response. If you don’t mind me asking what kind of negative reactions did you have regarding your diagnosis?

Were they dismissive or said it must have been incorrect?

I can’t really imagine people making jokes when they find out someone is autistic in the way they do when they find out someone isn’t straight

What kind of records are there for things like that in the US?
