For any machines that are too inefficient to be worth continuing to compute with, you could at least save the power supplies for electronics projects. I’ve got some 12V addressable RGB Christmas lights being powered by an old ATX power supply, for example.

Auschwitz, not Alcatraz. Get it right.

Lack of marketing.

Poe’s Law go brrrrrrrt

I mean, it sounds like the number of millionaires leaving did go up. It’s just that there are plenty of other ones willing to replace them.

Explain to us what point you were trying to make by misrepresenting allegations as established fact, then.

Taking less storage is almost the entire point of a zip file. It only takes more space than the original files in pathological cases (e.g. maybe if you’re trying to compress already-compressed data, like a video file).

Enshittification means something more specific than just making a thing worse. It means making it worse in a way designed to exploit or take advantage of the user by stealing their personal information or something like that.

This is more like “value engineering” and “planned obsolescence.”

Unless you’re talking about a really big span – and usually we’re not, since even open floor plan houses tend to be long in only one direction – it’s not that big a difference. A little bit of extra wood for beams and columns is cheap compared to the overall cost of the building.

Retrofitting an open floor plan on a building that wasn’t initially designed that way is expensive, of course, but that’s a different thing.

Considering how much humans are attracted to aliens (both depicted in-universe, e.g. Kirk and green women, and IRL, e.g. female fans having the hots for Leonard Nimoy as Spock), nope, I don’t find it odd at all. Let’s be honest: it’s really just the writers projecting humanity’s own proclivities on the aliens anyway.

BRB, checking archive.org for a minute…

Now I just need to replicate (pun intended) the physical game pieces…

But yeah, I think an LLM / deepfake Martok that responds to your open-ended D&D-style gameplay would be way better. I feel like we might just about have the technology to pull it off IRL!

1. Starfighter, obviously.

3. Sugar Rush and Fix it Felix Jr.

4. Does a tabletop game with an AI video DM count as a video game? If so:

I want to build myself a Starfighter arcade cabinet.

It would mostly run MAME, but also… it could run Starfighter!

Is metasearch really the best we can do? What about YaCy, or something else more like that?

I can only assume it would be something like !moi_evv if it existed.

Sure, but he’s not going to leave office willingly regardless.

Fuck it, write everything in hiragana and katakana.

If Trump leaves office willingly before it’s completed, I’ll eat mine.

probably certainly

FTFY.

Even if by some miracle it isn’t an unsafe, condemned piece of shit, it’s still a blight and a travesty of historical proportions that will need to be corrected by restoring it to the previous design.

NUCs (specifically Intel 8th?-gen or later) are pretty much ideal for serving Jellyfin because the Intel integrated graphics can do video transcoding and the software is actually not very demanding otherwise, so the low-power CPUs are fine.

If you were buying hardware specifically for Jellyfin (i.e. didn’t want to cobble together something used), I’d suggest an N100 or N150-based NAS mini-PC like this: https://www.bee-link.com/products/beelink-me-mini-n150
