The industry calls this “clientelling”

i mean, the food is bad by several measures. But I agree that it's just a normal bite for a guy who doesn't want to deal with getting messy on camera. It probably tastes good.

Is OP ChatGPT?

I am not nearly cool enough

Yeah, see that's the thing that I think people don't really understand about americans. They won't. I will be essentially excommunicated. I already mostly am because I don't use Facebook or Instagram. Cutting off decent messaging by leaving imessage without at least maintaining RCS would really cut me off.

I tried to switch from iPhone to Pixel 10 Pro Fold with GrapheneOS, but I needed RCS to work. Unfortunately, even installing Google Messages and allowing it permissions wouldn't allow RCS to work for more than 36 hours before I had to go through the whole install and allow process again. I would be willing to cut off all Google services, even banking apps and whatnot, but I need RCS to work. I'm unfortunately an American and cannot reliably expect my friends and family to use an app other than iMessage to text, so I need RCS.

Will Motorola provide some GrapheneOS compatible RCS client? If so, I am likely to switch.

Yeah! Sabrina is way better than Taylor!

They are spineless bastards, but the news does not have have an obligation to broadcast this dude's opinions. No freedom of speech was violated in any sense of the words

 

Playing FF7 with my kids and we ran into this chump working for shinra who is now surprised they’re doing a terrorism

 

That is all

Hey all!

I currently utilize Debian and used KDE Plasma on my old computer as a Plex server, RetroNAS, and also run protonVPN when i need to use it for downloading files for Plex to server on my network devices. The only problem is, I have to leave a keyboard and mouse plugged in for when i need to use it, but don’t have much space in the corner it stays in.

I happen to work for a touch screen company and have a glut of touch screens laying around my home office and I’ve got a VESA mount in the corner this PC lives in, and one of my spare touch monitors can go there. Unfortunately I’ve had trouble with touch friendliness with Linux distros. I’d love to find one that can support my usage needs with just the touch screen. So an on screen keyboard, and support for scrolling web pages (Wayland?) and other scrollable areas would be stellar.

Does anyone have any suggestions on a distro that would be great at this kind of thing? My PC uses an intel chipset with integrated graphics, if that matters.

 

I made this video review of a new aftermarket VMU for the Dreamcast. Infinite virtual VMUs!

 

I currently run windows 10 on my main desktop PC, and also have a steam deck that I sometimes use in desktop mode instead of my desktop. With the way Windows is going, and the way Linux Gaming is dramatically improving, I might consider ditching Windows, at least for the most part, on my next PC build. What would be the best distro to use for gaming, with casual use as well? Any suggestions?

 

Heard about these on the CRT Podcast by RetroTech and ZezRetro. Seems insane, I’m really curious about them.

Edit: changed link, hopefully it works now?

 

I love this video and how it reveals how displays work, it’s really enlightening if you’re interested in understand a bit of why CRTs look great for old games!

 

Love this little guy! Clear picture, very little CRT whine, super adjustable, and excellent scanlines. Just an adorable and beautiful little PVM.

 

My wife got me this silly little plastics phone holder thing because it looks like an old CRT and she thinks it’s silly that I love them so much.

 

I figured folks who are exploring both Kbin and Lemmy might enjoy subbing to both to get a mix of fediverse CRT love!
