It is actual compatible hardware though. And the opl chips etc are no longer made.

For myself emulation and FPGA are fine. But for speed running or any other number of things, actual hardware are important.

This is actual hardware. Yes simple arm cores can pretty faithfully emulate much of this. But that’s emulation. These are bespoke devices, built from actual old chips. Offering a level of comparability and predictability emulation can’t always achieve. It isn’t for everyone.

Adrian Black ended up with a non functioning unit sent to him by a viewer that bought one. The seller rather than pay for postage for the broken one to be sent back to China just told them to keep it and sent them a replacement instead. Adrian ends up troubleshooting and fixing it but you can get a pretty good look at everything going on inside and some of the old chips involved.

I criticize US imperialism all the time. Not even a warning let alone a ban. So I don’t think that’s the case.

There are some nice people. However that does not negate the glaring issues with the instance.

For admins, yes. I was pointing that out in the picture of the responses I posted. But not for General users.

This Dessalines?

Creeping the admin logs to find out who dared down vote him.

Gonna put this out there. Ended up in a thread on ML the other day. The poster/admin got a little unhinged, over 4 down votes. 4. Took to the admin panel to see who dared down vote him. Convinced he had been the victim of the tiniest not swarm ever.

It’s troubling behavior for anyone with power.

Most often I’ve seen instances use as super communities. Largely revolving around a bigger topic. KDE runs their own with their own subcommunities for instance. They are far from the only ones. Just the one I use the most and a came to mind first. Having your own instance slap server allows you far more control over your communities then just hosting on someone else’s server. But from an end user perspective very largely transparent. not even being noticeable oftentimes.

What if we took the CEO/middle management tax off every step in the process. Or made use of economies of scale to cheaply and efficiently provide people with a desirable comfortable standard of living. That could be guaranteed to them. Basic shelter, food and education completely taken care of. Empowering them to further themselves as much as they want to. And being free to work where they want to as much as they want to. Not forced to persist in a toxic environment for a paycheck that is still inadequate.

Yes, I just hope it goes better than the whole Microsoft deal. The next president turned around and basically undid all the work of the Clinton administration.

Yes I think that’s what they’re calling it now. They used to call it something else. But it generally works everywhere windows works. Though I don’t have very many windows machines myself and much prefer KDE connect. But there is something similar. Apple has one too. But it strictly only works with iPhones.

You will get no argument from me there. I used the one on Windows a couple of times. Wasn’t all that impressed. But the one on KDE is the one I use most myself.

Microsoft has released something similar for Windows. I believe it’s called Windows connect for phone? But it does exist.

I was unaware of the CMYK support. So sounds like maybe apart from gamut tools etc. It’s getting fairly close these days which is good to hear. I’ve generally just been using it for drawing and painting with a little bit of editing. Though I still feel more comfortable editing in Gimp at this point.

Krita is heavily oriented for digital painting. But it is a very solid editor too. The interface took some time to get used to. Though I like it.

But absolutely, good is subjective. It really depends on your needs. If you’re looking to edit spicy memes anything could work. If you’re looking for non destructive workflow GIMP and krita are starting to implement that. And if you’re looking for traditional publishing specific support, good CMYK, gamut, etc. Not so much to my knowledge? If you just want familiarish… Gimp these days can imitate the classic Photoshop interface okay.

I know right, it’s almost like they’re two different people. gasp Wait a minute they are!

Also, I wouldn’t call might makes right heavy philosophical lifting. There are less objectionable bits that Engles contributed. But some of the worst bits that led to the authoritarianism and brutality common in Marxist leninist structures is pretty strongly attached to him.

Are they mirroring trump rhetoric. Or is trump regurgitating talking points from his fascist idol. And ML are just so cultish, indoctrinated, anti West that they couldn’t not attack the west. Even if Russia is more clearly in the wrong on this issue.

It’s more likely than them actually supporting trump. Honestly I think the only possible way you could say they support trump. Is that they understand that trump would destroy Western society and they approve of that. No matter who gets hurt in the process. Well actually when it comes to leninists it’s all about hurting people in the process really.

Do it on a 3 strikes basis. They don’t ban an account in a single offense. And therefore shouldn’t do that to account groups either. It’s not perfect. But it’s much more forgiving and fair.

It could be. It’s not. But it could have been.

And do you have any proof of that? I’ve not seen anything of the like. I’m Marxist myself. Just not Leninist. I have no major issues on world. I tend to get downvoted about equally from capitalist to leninist. Up voted too. I’ve not noticed any anti-left trend. Anti ml? Sure. But they are not left in any meaningful sense beyond nominally. Authoritarians always ape populist political trends. In order to take advantage of society. Hitler did it, Lenin and Stalin did too. Though, unlike Hitler, I believe Lenin actually genuinely wanted a good outcome. Despite his bad ideology.
