we’ll get to see who really comes out on top with both performance and power

I can’t believe I first watched that grape lady clip, on a computer, 22 years ago. It was pre-youtube so it must have been on ebaum’s world or literally downoaded from limewire. Still funnay

IsThereAnyDeal.com has been my longtime tool. Sign up and select the right options and they will email you whenever free games are available from various sources, including Amazon, Steam, GOG, and Epic.  It’s also a good site for price-shopping.

Humble bundle went way down hill since its acquisition in 2017. Prices of bundles are basically slightly discounted retail. 

I have a ton of Raspberry Pis and other SBCs sitting around. If generative AI creeps into Alexa, or if they drop the non-AI enabled service option, I’m going to roll my own voice assistant. The amount of AI in everything digital lately is infuriating. I had to spend time to block out AI search garbage on Google this…

Which is why I’m of the opinion that they always deserve a solid nut-kicking.

I kind of excuse Google a bit, because they’re making the OS for many different platforms. Apple only has to write for Apple hardware; same with Roku.

The Dune is a great local media player but a shitty streamer. Advantages: lossless audio, FEL support (they claim anyway; haven’t tested it), the Dolby VS10 engine, and the ability to play ISO/BDMV files with full menu, etc. Disadvantages: terrible streaming app support, crude interface. I do not use it with Plex (not…

I am told the Fire Cube does that now, but I haven’t verified it yet.

Depends on your use case. Roku has a nice simple interface, and it seems to be pretty reliable (looking at you, GoogleTV), but it’s missing some enthusiast features important to me (and other enthusiasts).

That’s why, for me, the only explanation is that it cuts into ticket sales. So they schedule nearby events weeks or months away in hopes that some percentage of people will go to both events instead of just picking one event. And I share your notion that their claim of environmentally-friendly scheduling is completely…
