Basically, yeah. The example used in the video was about immigrant students potentially being doxxed by a conservative planning to give a speech at a university, with the "white moderates" being okay with this (not taking the "bluff") as a part of their strategy. The point being that "weaponizing or disregarding students of color is still racism."

The same kind of applies here. The commenter was using palestinians as a tool to attack the people they disagree with, completely disregarding the palestinians in the process.

I had to unsub from them during the pandemic. Too much existential dread and they just kept piling it on with video after video lol

That happened with Windows 8 and Vista as well. There was a running joke that every other Windows release was garbage when I was growing up.

I just started Astro Bot a couple days ago. I'm completely hooked, it's so much fun. Looking forward to the new Zelda as well.

And started a co-op run of Baldur's Gate 3 with a friend who hasn't finished it yet. I can't get enough of that game. Got into the modding scene recently too.

I'm out of the loop, what's the deal with dolphins?

I guess we'll just have to eat the rich now to find out. 🤷🏻‍♀️

You know, for science.

I recently set up LineageOS on my rpi4 for this. With that setup, I think you'd be able to use the Android version of Moonlight. I haven't used Moonlight before though, so not sure how good of an experience that is on Android. Since the official images didn't support Android TV, I ended up using this version. Performance is a little slow in the menus (and very slow in the Twitch app, but that's also true on the fire stick). I'll probably give rpi5 a shot at some point in the near future to see if that offers better performance.

Bluetooth game controller works quite well (a little too well, the box notifies me when controllers are trying to sync), and works with apps like RetroArch and Jellyfin. I think it's supposed to support AirPlay or whatever the Android equivalent is too, but I haven't tried that. I also had to install gapps to sign into YouTube, but most other streaming apps I tried worked without it. Some of them require specific Android TV devices though, so a 3rd party app store or side loading may be needed for some of them.

I originally wanted to use Plasma Bigscreen with Waydroid, but I ran into the same problem of not being able to find an Android TV image. I did try building it myself, but that was taking too long so I eventually gave up.

open_agb_firm is another option for GBA games. Seems to offer better performance, particularly when it comes to audio. I played through Pokemon Emerald with that recently, and it was the only way I could avoid the distracting sound issues.

Be excited about OpenAI's approach to research

Damn, guess I don't qualify. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Why do this? Sorry if this is too harsh, but this is a downright terrible idea. AI in it's current state is just fancy word prediction. It isn't accurate enough to use for news.

Judging by your other comments, you also don't seem to understand what is left wing. The US Democratic party is not left wing. They support the capitalist class just like the right. So if you use news sources like that, your entire project will have a right wing bias.

And that's even besides the point. Why the centrist stance? It's incredibly stupid to think that both the left and the right are equal. One side wants people like me dead while the other doesn't. Where is the middle ground there? To only half kill us? To kill only half of us? Is my desire to live and be myself too extreme to support?

Rethink this.

Temtem.

Extremely predatory design that tries damn hard to force you into micro transactions. And once you do, you have to spend so many hours to get what you already payed for. On top of that, the endgame is almost a completely different game with a different target audience than the rest of it. I regret all the money and time I wasted on it. Had to hide it in my steam library to get myself to stop as well. That kind of predatory shit should be illegal imo.

Stay away from that game, especially if you have any past issues with impulse, micro transactions, and/or addictive tendencies.
