I regularly emulate Switch games on my RoG Ally Z1E, and it pulls it off so fucking well, I haven't touched my Switch since I got the thing (it easily runs every title I've thrown at it at 60fps+higher res, plus I have the ability to mod games if I need to.)

I can't imagine it'll be too difficult for them to emulate Switch 2 games, assuming Nintendo don't catch on to emulation developers too early.

Here in Australia, there aren't any bullshit field sobriety tests - the breathalyzer just comes out and you get tested. If you blow over, you then wait 15 minutes if you produce a lower reading, before trying again. If you still blow over, you then go to the station to get a proper test done before the police can legally prove anything.

There are obviously freedom-based downsides to mandatory roadside testing, but if the alternative is the kind of shit in this story, then I'm happy with our system here. Never had an issue with it myself... unless we're talking roadside drug testing, which is flawed as fuck, and most of the time produces a positive result the day after, leading to a loss of license. We literally have 'road safety' billboards along our highways plastered with the tagline "get caught long after the high is gone."

Australia is so fucking behind the times in so many ways, it drives me insane.

Cool, please do.

It's sad to see the number of comments here that still seem to be stuck in the misguided 80's/90's/00's mindset of 'nuclear power in real life is just as depicted in The Simpsons.'

Happy I stuck with my older Samsung dumb TV. Great screen, decent size, flat enough to mount on a wall, and does everything I need it to do regarding hooking up my little i5/8GB baby office PC turned media hub. I don't care that it's only 1080p, looks just fine when I'm in bed and watching movies on it. Even when smart devices were first becoming THE thing to have, the idea of having to download updates for my TV got me thinking about the more nefarious aspects of such tech the future may hold.

I think a lot of it comes down to me just not being very materialistic, or needing my household devices to be internet ready with installed apps and no way of managing permissions or data harvesting. Even my cars are older, and were made well before integrated SIM cards and constant data collection, and I've no plans to upgrade any time soon. I guess I just never 'got' the appeal of having a smart device that wasn't just my phone (and even then, I barely use any apps on my phone outside a web browser (which eliminates the need for most apps anyway) and the camera.)

You couldn't pay me enough to go back to that cesspool. Three years free of it, and have only experienced positives. As another user also stated, I've got social media blocked on the DNS level, as well as no longer using reddit.

Kbin and Lemmy are pretty good, but I still limit my usage.

No, and the answer isn't policing speech. The block button exists for a reason. Use it.

Legitimately yes. You can call me whatever you like.

The very same AI that shows pictures of black people with dreadlocks when asked to show a typical viking also has a braindead response for a question involving Hitler and a guy who posts retarded tweets and regularly pisses off his shareholders? I am shocked.

AI is still so ridiculously tainted by bias and the relative infancy of the tech.
