    Ozzy Osbourne AI avatar will be 'tasteful,' son says after fan backlash

    Jump

  • Who even would anyone want to talk to him? I mean I remember that awful MTv series about the Osbournes like a decade back and Ozzy was not very coherent then, why would anyone want to have a chat with something that resembles that? He was an influential musician, but that doesn't mean he is a wise person to have a chat with.

  • Capitalism is a parasite that needs to be eliminated

  • I guess it is also cheaper to get artificial flavour instead, bit sad.

  • Sorry, I find it hard to believe that these bananas are not instead sold slightly cheaper for uses where the looks don't matter. E.g. for processing into foods where they essentially just get mashed, like yogurts with banana taste or whatever there is. Also selling them to Zoos as I am sure animals don't care either. Is that really not financially viable?

  • The Steam Deck OLED's price hikes have killed its status as the best deal in PC games hardware

    Jump

  • I think this is unnecessarily inflammatory focusing on the Steamdeck. Did Valve increase price out of nowhere? I am guessing not. Did they on purpose delay their Steam machine launch date? Again, I guess not.

    We all know the elephant in the room for this, which will also cause pretty much all PC hardware prices to go up. By the time that happens the Steam deck will probably be again a good deal, since just everything goes up in price right now.

    Edit: since the article compares this to current price of the Asus ROG Ally, mark my words, in the next 6 months they will also have to increase their price.

    Edit2 later: everyone has seen the news that the Steamdeck sold out again even for that price? If it weren't a useful device for that price, it wouldn't sell that well.

  • We know. No one has.

  • Steam Deck back in stock, with higher pricing

    Jump

  • Daaaaaamn. If I didn't have one already, I would not consider buying it at that price anymore. And I got the cheaper 512 gb model.

  • Is Plex really Self Hosting?

    Jump

  • Have you mined the minerals though?

    Or to put it in another way "to truly selfhost you need to start by creating the universe".

  • Suggestion for the custom filtering

  • Woah, interesting, I will try this out. Thanks for looking into it and giving a detailed explanation!

  • is it true that linux cannot run on a laptop without any SSD ?

  • Darn

  • I my Raspberry PI got Linux running on an SD card. Thats not SSD either, is it?

  • We've gone too far

  • Looks very very cool and I am 100% certain after about 5 minutes of looking at it you had enough.

  • 'Incredible' milestone reached as Sweden becomes a smoke-free country

  • It is less harmful for bystanders in the least but should totally be banned alongside smoking itself.

  • (Completed) Steam keys for patient gamers

  • Aw man, I live in the wrong time zone! Still glad you did this!

    Mostly bummed that Hollow Knight was on there! But I am looking to buy it at the next big sale anyhow...

    Whoever got Hyper Light Drifter, you are in for a fantastic time. My second favourite game I played the past few years.

  • Suggestion for the custom filtering

    Jump

  • Thanks, I had a look and it is really inconsistent for me how the filters work. How do they kick in when I add a new one, do I just need to swipe/reload and it should work? Doesn't seem to work for me.

    So I made one for "test post" and you are right, they got filtered perfectly. Then I thought the phrases I wanted to filter include brackets and percentages, maybe there is a bug with that? Made a test post myself then, which got for some reason immediately filtered even though it did not match any filter I had still. So I unhid it, tried filtering for part of its title but I cannot get it filtered. Is it because it was filtered before and I undid that?

  • Anybody here who made a custom Gameboy at a workshop in Tokyo?

    Jump

  • Thanks! Totally get your perspective on this, I would definitely not expect this to be same price as if I just did the research and shopping myself. I guess the upcharging is that someone is there to help you out and for people who would normally not think of doing something like that.

    Can I ask you another question, how does it work with games on old Gameboys, are you forced to keep buying old cartridges or is there some way to load ROMs into these. They don't have any storage on them, right?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I think that is a good assessment, I found a video and edited into my main post.

  • Thanks, appreciate all the info!

    I found a video of a blogger going to one of these and it sounds a lot like you describe, for a second one could see two extra ports on the left side which looked like a usb and maybe hdmi port? But batteries seemed still an option too somehow, not sure. Have a look if you are curious but it is a 13 min video, so maybe not your thing to watch.
