As a general rule for AliExpress, if something is priced too low, it’s going to be garbage.

I’ve relied on Reddit thread advice in the past for getting decently reputable Chinese brands, which has worked well when buying various things (cycling gear, kitchen scale, mini-PC).

Mornings at the gym are the best, honestly. I get the whole place basically to myself.

Anyone know if it fairs better on Android TV these days?

Sweden.

I’d be happy if there actually was any snow, then it gets bright and pleasant outside. Around 0 C and rainy is way, way worse, especially given the very limited hours of sunlight.

Seems unlikely that they will be successful in shutting it down. If that were the case, they would have been shut down over the books already.

Flying cars are too dumb to exist

Dota has less problems with this because the meta played on the map has been allowed to change wildly throughout the years, while Riot have mostly been trying to enforce one single meta (last I checked anyway, which was a long time ago)

Seems like a lot of energy will be lost when transmitting the energy wirelessly. How about we put up some wires that can deliver the energy more efficiently. After that, we can switch out the rubber tyres on asphalt for steel wheels on steel rails, such that we improve the energy efficiency further. This way, we can transport so much more stuff at a fraction of the cost.

Quite literally yes

I have figured it out: many of them.

Great! I salute your rigour in the matter. How many of them was it?

And no, Amnesty did not produce a significant amount of primary evidence. You’re just straight up lying now.

There are 430 hits for “Amnesty International interview” as sources.

Who knows, maybe they just interviewed Adrian Zenz for all of those claims. The joke would very much be on me in that case

Feel free to figure that part out. At a cursory glance, a not-insignificant part was information sourced directly by Amnesty.

Is Amnesty International a fundamentalist right wing organization, captured by Adrian Zenz?

They do cite him five times in their report on the subject, but their report does contain a total of 718 sources.

This is not to say that their report should be treated as uncritically correct, but neither should their claims be dismissed outright because of an anticommunist having been a part of doing research on the subject.

To illustrate - Candace Owens, a well known right-wing agitator and all-round piece of shit frequently speaks out against Israel. This does not, very obviously not, make Israel good.

Water, closely followed by coffee. I adhere to a two cup limit, but by god do I enjoy those two cups.

I mean, you generally decode an asset several magnitudes more often than encoding it, and decoding basically must happen real-time, while encoding can most often happen ahead-of-time. Having encodes be a bit on the slower side if it gains you higher compression is arguably worth it.

Escargn’t

NeverKnowsBest made a video about it, which I think is worth a watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWuokRjedOA

He also pins the blame squarely on Paradox.

Gamedev is notorious for basically having permacrunch so this is the most likely reason

Slay the Spire is excellent on mobile.

dark pattern

This is not what dark pattern means.

Also, I don’t think enabling developer options is required to install arbitrary APKs.
