My vote is universal Blue and its spins like Bluefin or Bazzite

I think it’s hilarious with the market for Linux handhelds this hot that these companies are still like “ew no thanks”

Can you tell if an AI is being trained on these Lemmy instances? How would you detect it and stop it?

💯

Large language models are going to replace search. Naturally concise recommendations are easier for humans to interact with than a swath of web pages. The problem that you get here is this is going to disincentive the creation of new web content outside of the walled gardens we already have. The walls are just going to get higher.

Hell yeah brother. Started playing Hades 2 on my custom chimeraOS PC yesterday in the living room. I absolutely love the experience. I’ve been considering getting that Hx100 PC from minisforum and running bazzite on there to replace my custom PC for a smaller console like footprint. The time is nigh!

My favorite trick to reviving old computers is trying to find ways to get them to run off of solid state storage. It really makes a huge difference. You will be surprised by how much more tolerable classic computers are when you no longer have to deal with slow storage mediums.

Mind you this doesn’t make them modern levels of fast and you no longer get the satisfaction of hearing the hard drive grinding away when you open a window but thems the tradeoffs…sigh…

The same reason a movie theater owner can’t show Pee Wee’s Big Adventure every weekend. Value is derived from exclusivity. Exercising your “rights” to a work means preventing anyone from having access to the work unless you are paid when and how you want.

Is there an alternative way to register a domain that cannot be seized? It seems like domain seizure is the one thing that enables internet censorship. Is there some sort of block chain base registrars out there? I’m genuinely curious.

No bueno

I wonder if this age of consolidated net access if Google, Facebook,Twitter will be for or against this.

Time to invest in some foreign VPNs.

I just saw a similar post here

Rem4 has the energy of a movie that was made because James Cameron walked into Capcom main offices, met with the presidents, stood in front of a whiteboard and wrote “Resident Evil$” making sure the s was notably a big red dollar sign $. Everyone applauded and then they made whatever the hell they wanted.

and I love that about it.

(Note: this is basically how we got the move Aliens 1986)

Are there alternative firmwares available for shield?

The weird thing about these remakes is that they keep cutting and remixing content from the originals with mixed results. Resident Evil 3 was a good example as it’s almost a whole new vision for the game (I do acknowledge this came with a lot of shortcomings).

When I think about what Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth has done, I understand that it’s a sequel that turns the remake genre on its head. I think this is a more interesting way of approaching it.

When people debate whether it’s good or bad is almost a moot point. If someone “remade” Devil May Cry and it was a top down turn based RPG like FF tactics, I wouldn’t care as long as it’s good. ( I didn’t hate D.M.C. and it’s weirdly 2000cool aesthetics)

I may or may not buy the new one, I just want the option to buy the old one too.

Don’t worry, Nintendo will make a switch 2 and all the problems will be fixed!

I think immutability is the point of this particular distribution. There are definitely some kinks but conceptually I really like what they’ve done.

I’m curious, what apps are you having issues with specifically?

Oh my … That’s awful. I’m just discovering this myself. Even IGN put out an article https://www.ign.com/articles/near-bsnes-remembrance

Maybe the blue ray box should have an entire SSD in them or some kind of NextGen Compact flash as long as it’s a standard format and not a proprietary format like a switch game. You can buy blank CDs, DVDs, SD cards and there are standards in place to make them readable by entire fleets of devices.

It’s harder for games but I’m coming at this from a games preservation angle.

Games keep getting bigger and require installation to drive to effectively load assets quickly. I really envy the ability to not have to perform an installation to the device. If your game was simply its own storage device again then you could have that plug and play like experience back and also have that ~4GBps read that even the cheapest NVME drives can offer.

I have DVDs, but I also have MKV files, and I have the ability to go between these formats. I suggested something like flatpak because a universal physical media image format for games would be just one more way to easily preserve content offline indefinitely and neatly keep it pretty platform agnostic.

That was my train of thought. I know the likelihood of this being done by a real company is slim to none because of DMCA and over engineering another format is pointless if they can force everything to be download only IRL but I would like to push back and I can’t easily archive all this stuff forever on an ever growing 48TB Nas on my home. I would like offline ownership and convenience please.

If it’s going to be too expensive for a company to put Alan Wake Two onto physical media then I’d like a way to do it myself so it continues to work when epic decides they want to pull a Warner Bros and rip it off the internet forever and claim it was a loss to get tax breaks. It would also be cool if it didn’t have to install and it just started.

I understand the difficulty involved with that but we’re halfway there with software running containerized on Linux.

A man can dream.
