misk@piefed.socialOPto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•Silly PS1 Licensed Games | Sean SeansonEnglish6·6 days agoYou’re in for a treat then, this guy’s back catalogue is massive and very entertaining!
It’s FPGA and plays ROMs so I think it’s just more financially prudent to get a MisterFPGA - a much more versatile system that’s about as accurate. I’m rather confused about most of those single platform FPGA systems like new Commodore or Analogue 64 - do you really want to swap physical media? I’d understand getting this for aesthetics but at this price point? Hard sell for sure.

Couch Potato is pretty much dead, Radarr is the way to go.

Back in the day Sabnzbd was considered slow and inefficient so Nzbget was usually recommended. These days both are pretty much indistinguishable performance-wise and Sabnzbd seems to get more active development.

empiricalanecdotal evidence is a type of logical fallacy too.
misk@piefed.socialto Technology@piefed.social•RFK Jr. wants a wearable on every American — that future’s not as healthy as he thinksEnglish1·8 days agoSlippery slope is a type of logical fallacy. You’re jumping from something that could be „let’s subsidise MiBand straps” to a full blown surveillance state.
misk@piefed.socialto movies@piefed.social•Noah Centineo Attached to Play Rambo in Prequel Movie 'John Rambo'English12·8 days agoSo the chronological order will be:
- John Rambo
- First Blood
- Rambo: First Blood Part II
- Rambo III
- Rambo
- Rambo: Last Blood
Perfection. I just hope they do a sequel to Last Blood too.
misk@piefed.socialto Technology@piefed.social•RFK Jr. wants a wearable on every American — that future’s not as healthy as he thinksEnglish1·9 days agoThat’s an anecdote again though. Nobody is talking about forcing people to use them either, or at least I hope so because you never know what Yanks come up with these days.
misk@piefed.socialto Technology@piefed.social•RFK Jr. wants a wearable on every American — that future’s not as healthy as he thinksEnglish51·9 days agoThe argument made is anecdotal and subject to self-selection bias. In general basic wearables for everyone sounds like a very good idea, even if it’s coming from the worst people possible.
misk@piefed.socialto Technology@piefed.social•It Took Just 24 Hours of Complaints for OpenAI to Start Bringing Back Its Old ModelEnglish8·12 days ago“I woke up this morning to find that OpenAI deleted 8 models overnight. No warning. No choice. No ‘legacy option.’ They just… deleted them,” one user on r/ChatGPT complained. “4o? Gone. o3? Gone. o3-Pro? Gone. 4.5? Gone. Everything that made ChatGPT actually useful for my workflow—deleted.”
The user wrote that 4o wasn’t just a tool for them: “It helped me through anxiety, depression, and some of the darkest periods of my life. It had this warmth and understanding that felt… human.”
So, it looks like we as a society have now outsourced taking care of mentally ill to a sycophantic text generator.

Current restrictive laws push archival into the grey zone where it’s hard to effectively enforce privacy protections.
misk@piefed.socialto movies@piefed.social•‘Highlander’: Dave Bautista to Play Villain Opposite Henry Cavill in Amazon MGM’s RemakeEnglish2·13 days agoI haven’t heard of this before and now I wish I didn’t because I can’t wait. I was burnt out on reboots but have recently seen a few that made me less bitter about them (Naked Gun, Rescue Rangers). Turns out you just need competent people who have genuinely good grasp on source material and Cavill looks like one.
Maybe they’ll do sequels this time? ;)
