With the hotline and guides you still had to actually play yourself. This is a step further, you just watch the game play itself.

I continue to be baffled how people keep making this mistake. ‘H’ is nowhere near the letters in ‘were’.

Don’t need a license to have the radio or even to use it to listen. Only need a license to transmit.

You’re standing on a soap box on the street corner. My downvote is me frowning, shaking my head in disappointment, and walking away.

We’ve got the Kia Niro Wind and I agree they’re fun to drive. Wish it’d charge faster (capped at 75kW I think?) for long trips, but it’s been more than fine for what we need

I second SWAG. nginx, let’s encrypt, plenty of ready-to-go configs, it’s pretty great

It’s vibes based

I use it as an overconfident rubber duck to bounce ideas and solutions off of in my code, but I don’t let it write for me. I don’t want the skills I’ve practiced to atrophy

Mom said it’s my turn to be Dale!

I used Sync (first for Reddit, then for Lemmy), but the dev’s been AWOL for a lot longer than normal so it’s pretty broken at this point.

Tried Connect next, and it was alright.

Currently using Voyager and I’m pretty happy with it. It’s gotten me back to the old Sync customizations I used to have.

I’d go further and compare this to actors who many times will never watch the finished product. IIRC, John de Lancie voiced Discord in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic but never watched any of the episodes until the fandom really took off. He was surprised this small role he forgot he even did gained such popularity! I’m sure he’s seen a number of episodes by now, especially since he later reprised his role

everything we agree on is an ad would be prohibited

And that’s part of the issue; this assumes that we’ve somehow come to a consensus on what ‘ads’ are, or which are ‘bad’. I can get behind getting rid of obtrusive ads, such as pop-ups and video interruptions, but I also actually like billboard advertisements (As long as they are in locations that respect what’s around them, are legible from a distance (not wordy, I’m trying to drive!), and don’t have eye-searing lights). When I travel, billboards often bring us to some interesting locations we may not have thought of before.

Personally, I’d look at making policies restricting “obtrusive advertising”. I don’t mind the advertising, I mind the delivery.

When my parents bought their current home (middle of a forest in the PNW), they found a decent radon leak coming from the foundation. One of the first renovations was new carpeting, and IIRC they made sure to get the foundation properly sealed to stop the leaks at the same time.

Check out VacuumTube!

Started using this a couple weeks ago in my Google TV w/ Chromecast replacement (Using a Beelink mini-PC with Debian) and it’s so much better than using the desktop site

I can’t believe this picture of the “adapter” I made 15 years ago is finally relevant. Think I was just missing a cable extender so made one myself
