I’ve done the tape thing before. It was a little bit of a pain but not that hard.

That’s why you run a couple rounds of preclear to stress them and then run a fresh smart report.

It’s not just that. If the Pi Foundation has to make a choice between fulfilling an order for 100 pis for a company so that the company can keep making products and meeting payroll vs. 100 hobbyists that want to make their own one-off project, which is the more moral use of resources?

Yeah, those companies should probably not have chosen a pi board to power their products but that’s only noticeable in hindsight.

You spent four paragraphs describing your unusual and unique set up and then asserted that your setup isn’t actual either of those things. I think you just don’t realize how out of the norm your requirements are.

The HA android app just passed one million active devices. Saying “Ha is already not working today.” might be true for you but it’s obviously not true across the board.

There’s lots of EA games in particular that can’t be bought on PC anymore. The old Tony Hawk Underground and Tiger Woods Golf games are probably the best examples I can think of.

Great name! Matters of taste aside, I think the old name would have painted the project into a corner in lots of ways. I will definitely be watching this with interest. Is there a /c I can sub to yet for news?

I’ve been using it for maybe a year now and it’s been rock solid. Highly recommended.

The internet is still young.

In what world is 40 years “young”?

This is going to make it impossible for any technical help communities to take root. The fact that the whole thing can just go poof completely turns me off from using something like that.

Any random person is at least a hundred times more ethical than mark Zuckerberg.

Good. People should delete all of their Meta accounts.

It seems a bit like:

“You hired a cop!”

“Ok, So?”

“Fire them!”

“No…?”

“FASCISTS!”

I’m not a fan of cops either but this just seems really silly.
