You do sound a little batty, as a matter of style.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade tells oil tankers to go through the Strait of Hormuz: "Show some guts and go through that strait and do it"
20·23 hours agoI’m not sure I really want my tax dollars to be insuring oil tankers traveling through a war zone.
I’d rather my tax dollars insure sick people.
Plus, who would be dumb enough to believe that Trump would ever hold up his end of a bargain like that?

10·1 day agoTo be 100% fair to Disney and Marvel, I’d say it looks more like a new Air Bud spin off where he’s also a cop or something.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Lead Lemmy developer [email protected] Appears to Have Had Their Account Compromised After Moderation Actions Raise Serious Concerns
8·2 days agoSure, but we allow people to power trip by giving them power in the first place. People choose to use Lemmy and participate in lemmy.ml, directly or indirectly; that gives the maintainers and admins power.
Now, I don’t see eye to eye with the tankie crowd. That’s fine, whatever. But I can still appreciate the creation of Lemmy as an open software project.
Ultimately FOSS gives us agency. I don’t feel that the creators of Lemmy have any power over me personally. They’re not very significant, but I do appreciate their project.

Also, to be fair, the software isn’t necessarily problematic like the moderation is. No point throwing the baby out with the bath water.

Technology@beehaw.org•We’re Training Students To Write Worse To Prove They’re Not Robots, And It’s Pushing Them To Use More AI
16·3 days agoAI checkers seem like a stupid and lazy way to determine if a student used AI to write their paper when the teacher could simply sit down with the student to ask them about the content of their to paper.

Technology@lemmy.world•New York considers bill that would ban chatbots from giving legal, medical advice
361·3 days agoThis reads as a way to protect white collar industries from the effects of AI without addressing the root problem–that AI does not actually think, and that it is little more than a meat grinder full of scraped data.

This doesn’t really say much that they haven’t said before at this point. Hopefully Steam Machines win out in the long run.
Must have been terrifying. Glad you’ve been given a clean bill of health now! Stay vigilant!

I don’t have the Analogue 3D (N64), but I do have the Super NT (SNES), and while it is a pretty expensive way to play old games, it’s also one of the best in terms of accuracy and image quality. It’s basically the best SNES money can buy, so you have to really love the platform to spend that money over simply emulating on a PC.
The price is also not that bad compared to modding original hardware or buying decent upscalers. I don’t know what a HDMI modded n64 runs these days, but I remember seeing them at $600 back in the day!
