It’s an older Samsung phone, so chances are you may have to use Samsung’s Odin utility to flash the ROM

Honestly, considering how much of a meme Trump’s presidency seemed to be (at least as an Australian that’s what it appeared to be - I wouldn’t be surprised if people voted for him for the meme at the time), having someone named “literally anybody else” on the ballot seems like a great way to get votes if only for the meme.

Yes it was, but in some ways Nintendo still succeeded In what I believe is their goal - to scatter the developers.

By shutting down Yuzu, they fragmented everyone into forking their own copies and competing to become the next Yuzu.

What’s more of a threat to them? One emulator with thousands of contributors, or 1000 emulators with 2-5 contributors each?

The best thing about open source is the pooling of developers and resources. While forking is neither a good nor a bad thing, it does tend to break up the developer pool.

It could take anywhere from months to years if at all for everyone to finally settle on a single fork and get back to the level of developer pool that originally existed - then if that happens, Nintendo can come along and do it all over again, at least untill they don’t see the value in continuing.

True just look at how long project64 v1.6 has been around

Honestly, as an honestly pretty unspiritual Christian, Street preachers make me unnecessarily angry. Because it feels like they’re just bible bashing and aren’t actually doing anything to further Christianity’s goals, despite the fact they think they are. Individuals can’t win people over by shoving their beliefs down people’s throats.

I feel like the only people who listen to these guys are people who agree with them. Most people ignore them in my city.

Yep all you need to do is find a copy of the firmware (you actually can get the latest firmware from the internet archive) and the decryption keys (they’re a little bit more difficult to find, can’t remember where I got them from, but it took a long time for me to find a working download)

I recognise that internet router on the right. That looks like the “smart router” Telstra gives their customers - we have one we used to use back when we had Telstra cable. It’s currently playing the duty of an Ethernet switch for dad’s office.

Hmm by that last link it looks like sync isn’t on the list of whitelisted sites. Granted, it’s not a site, but an app. Seems like we need some kind of authorisation.

I doubt they have the sense of humour for that.

Netflix should’ve realised this would be the end result. The moment you needed 5-6 different streaming platforms to watch all the movies and tv shows you want, was the moment it became easier and significantly cheaper to pirate the content.

None of the big companies that decided to cash in ever stood a chance.

Can’t star trek across the fediverse without multiple space docks.

Just watch for the Klingons on the starboard bow.

I thought blender had a timeline? Or was it removed from a recent version?

And their complete mistrust of the justice system.

Vive la revolution anyone?

I get louder, and I lose much of my profanity filter. Which people used to think wasn’t possible. But that’s it.

A lot of these large over employed places don’t hire for the extra Labor. They hire because it’s a way to prevent competition. Why would an employee leave to join a competitor or create a competing start up company if he’s being paid well to do next to nothing?

The only problem is that’s only financially viable when interest rates are low and investors are willing to give out cash like it’s candy.

Get a thick 2 piece rubber/plastic case. Make sure the edge of the case sticks out significantly from the screen, so when you drop it, it will hit the case before the phone. (Provided you don’t drop it on gravel or something pointy)

My pixel 3a has survived years of this. And I haven’t needed to replace it yet. Sure the plastic is scuffed to hell and back, and it ads significant thickness. but it’s yet to fail in protecting my phone. And I’ve never bought a screen protector for it.

Mid roll ads are fine if the video was made with midrolls in mind that the midrolls actually happened at the times the maker of the video has set them up to happen.

Sure they are selective about which videos have ads, but not when the ads come on.

YouTube, with no adblocker or premium subscription has basically become an interrupting cow, making noise at the most innapropriate time and then you have to wat-MOOOOOOOOOO-ch the ad, then you rewind 10 seconds to get your cont-MOOOOOOOOOO-text back. There needs to be a legal limit to the number of midrolls you can stuff in a short space of time.

I’d rather watch a series of multiple consecutive midroll ads placed at a prespecified time than a random number of ads scattered at completely random intervals, Ruining the flow and mood of the video.

Its frustrating af.

“what! A chastity belt? ughhhh that’s going to chafe my Willy!”

There’s no way windows would’ve deleted your dual boot partition, your Linux bootloader? Yes ive seen it do that a hundred times over, but I have never seen it overwrite an entire Linux EXT4 partition. The only time it would do that is if you installed it after installing Linux and did a reccomended install instead of a custom install.

I wonder if that means there’s a loophole in the bill.
