The road isn’t a better option but issues with grass in residential areas:

• Tree roots and other trip hazards
• People parking their 5 giant SUVs and pickup trucks on them (this can happen on sidewalks too, but it’s often worse)
• Dog shit that is less visible
• Road design is usually more hostile when there aren’t sidewalks since they don’t even consider the existence of pedestrians
• Sometimes it’s not grass so much as mud, particularly when flooding has occurred recently (which has gotten more common as climate change has advanced).
• Running on a sidewalk (or road) is better for reducing injury despite grass feeling softer (since it’s more uneven).

And on the larger sidewalks you can ride bikes on them relatively safely.

Can you imagine a world without influencers?

Owned by a man that is trying to elect Donald Trump, who is famously opposed to renewable energy.

Yes. See: https://www.elevenforum.com/t/specify-target-feature-update-version-in-windows-11.3811/

Or try InControl if you can’t get the above to work.

But yes, Im pretty sure my little server I use explicitly for jellyfin will be fine

I’m not sure why you wouldn’t use Linux for that. You can make some arguments against Linux on the desktop (although I don’t agree) but Linux as a server has been clearly superior for a long time.

It’s like a page of high-school level ranting gibberish. I suppose that is technically a “platform” but not what people are typically thinking of.

Perplexity seems to work but I don’t like the idea of AI giving me “facts” since they are mostly based on other AI posts

It helps that it gives actual sources, so you can verify them. But yeah, not helpful if all of the sources end up being AI posts.

It’s just more visible since downvotes and upvotes are shown separately. On the old site, that hasn’t been the case for years.

Can any of these work without some idiotic third-party account?

If you’re just talking about WMR devices (and not VR in general), then no, they don’t require an account. The Reverb G2 is the most supported by Monado (and has the best hardware), but I’d try to get the V2 revision. And the cable is a common failure point, so could be an issue with a used purchase.

Looks like Monado is our only hope. Pathetic support from Microsoft but hopefully it will be fully supported in Linux in the next few years.

And they are not even the only comedians doing this. It’s basically a trope at this point.

If it’s the case that the only evolutionary reason for large breasts is to better attract (some) men, that would be interesting.

It’s not like large breasts are more common than not large (unless you mean anything larger than nothing at all). I suspect there was a random mutation, and it didn’t hurt their reproduction chances but it didn’t help either. So you end up with a variety of breast sizes.

Worrying about the water use of almonds when animal agriculture is right there is absurd in any case.

I’ve seen it go down in some cases on VPNs, so it could be a matter of time (or they’ll find a solution again and the back and forth will just continue).

Youtube isn’t just a thing people use to waste time, but a source of educational content. That actually matters, and there isn’t a good alternative to much of it.

That being said, I agree that people could at least drop it (or reduce their usage) if they are just using it as a time waster.

Or they manually create their own typography engine using ed, the standard editor.

Or emacs with org-mode.

The drivers for your card needs to support the required extensions, and the hardware needs to support the particular codecs as well. So if you don’t have already have encoding/decoding support for the given codec with OGL etc, this won’t add it most likely.

The main benefit is that application devs won’t need to add multiple hardware decoding/encoding APIs, and can just target Vulkan. Cross platform support in particular is currently a mess due to the different APIs on Windows/Linux/Mac, so this will simplify things greatly. Eventually, driver devs will be able to just support Vulkan too, but that’s a long way off.

As someone who already has a Deck, I’m more keen on this. The Index was very expensive and only had a limited run. Mind you, the Index is expensive in general and I hope they aim for Quest level prices this time around.

The NoDerivatives part is concerning. Is he trying to prevent forks?
