in theory voting through mail would be easier, but in practice it's a nightmare. i needed absentee ballots for two elections when i was away for school- one arrived late and one didn't arrive at all! much easier to just do in-person voting in my experience
everyone is quick to takes sides here but to me this just feels like a sad situation all around. i can see why the original translators thought that closing the repo was essentially revoking permission. i can also see why eadmaster saw the GPL license as explicit permission, and that closing the repo meant they weren't working on it anymore. i hope cooler heads prevail because it would be a loss to the community if anyone involved were to take their ball and leave

wow. that definitely adds some layers, considering Sam was the one who figured out how to fix the timeline and Teal'c was the one who executed it. and that he doesn't tell the others anything that happened. poor guy :(

oooo baby i love your wayouns, every dayoun...
the article is more about AAA games than consoles, and i agree with the article's takeaway. graphical improvements have been an Emperor's New Clothes situation for about a decade for me now. the reason we have those hundred hour AAA games is because with today's technology, the only advantage big studios have over indies is sheer volume of content. people are starting to wise up to that more and more and those studios will have to find a different way to justify those massive budgets and price tags or simply go under
as for consoles, though? i think the average PC gamer underestimates the value of things Just Working to the vast majority of customers. PCs themselves are having a tough time against smartphones and chromebooks and computer literacy is decreasing from gen z to gen alpha as a result. the seeming failure of the newer xbox and playstation has more to do with the aforementioned dying AAA market and the fact that they've become dumbed-down gaming PCs themselves instead of Just Working. the Switch successor will probably not be great but still sell gangbusters because Nintendo is monopolizing the market on Just Works, even if just barely!
if it's just a phase, we can simply modulate the frequency of the subharmonic phase generator. and reverse the polarity of the deflector dish if that doesn't work
i'm really interested to see where this goes. i feel like a lot of the dorks (i say affectionately as a dork) who use the fediverse and people who do this kinda shortform video are two circles that don't touch, so this could very well die on the vine- no pun intended- or it could give the fedi the jolt it needs to enter the mainstream
i totally get that, although being able to resub to all the same categories beats starting from scratch entirely somewhere else. my experience at fedia.io has been great so far
i'm not sure, i'm sorry. i just use the web interface as a PWA
kbin has a few extra bells and whistles, like it can also do mastodon-style "microblogging" and custom themes per user. it's since ceased developement but mbin is a fork continuing it. other than that, the experience is the same
hell i went one step further and abandoned lemmy entirely for mbin

Neither are perfect because Christian Athiests includes people who are "culturally Christian" as that can include clergy as an authority and rituals, and Jesuism would include splinter religious groups and is very easily confused with the Catholic Jesuit order. hopefully it's a starting point though!
you're getting downvoted but you're not wrong. N64 emulation has been as good as it'll get for a long while (remember, we were playing N64 games flawlessly on the Wii, which itself is now retro to many!), and compared to older consoles with quirky bespoke hardware, the benefits of hardware emulation like FPGAs over software emulation are diminished for the N64 to begin with. if you do want to go the FPGA route, Taki Udon's MiSTeR Pi is cheaper than this and can load any number of cores instead of just the N64. ultimately you're paying a premium for an experience that's either as good as or worse than a plethora of cheaper options
the first Pokemon game i owned was XD on the GameCube, and like any good kid i overtrained my starter and ignored the rest of my team. i evolved Eevee into Flareon and Fire Blast quickly became my favorite move, killing anything and everything in just one shot. it only has 5 PP, though, so things started getting tough once trainers had six Pokemon. i eventually reached the Ground-type boss and never did get farther than that lmao. but my soft spot for Fire Blast still remains!
oh hell yeah
