I am not up to date on all these license debates, but don't you think equating Alpine Linux to "locked down DRM" is just a bit of a logical reach?
Alpine and its components are fully open source, you can make whatever changes you want to them. I am not seeing the argument here.
The people downvoting you have never experienced perfectly regular trees (and don't understand CrossCode inside jokes).
Just being open source is not enough to solve this problem. You would need a record of your "home instance" stored somewhere that all Lemmy instances would always have access to it. Ignoring the security implications of that, you still can't use browser storage or cookies for that storage. In browsers, those storage mechanisms are restricted to the websites that stored them in the first place. Browser extensions have their own storage, so they don't have this limitation.
I can't think of an architectural solution to this problem without a browser extension.
The closest alternative that could be upstreamed is what Mastodon does, which is prompt the user to enter their home instance every time they try to interact with something while not logged in. An upstream solution can never be fully automatic like a browser extension, but this may be "close enough."
They explain it in the video. They already use algorithms to detect if things are buildings or not.
But if their algorithm can't make a determination or is uncertain below a certain threshold, they send it to Maptcha to get a bulk human opinion.
That's not the person I originally asked.
The person I asked actually did reply to me on this thread... but didn't answer how they know all this.
How do you know all of this?
I just want a reasonably priced generational bump over the Index. Most PCVR headsets that have pancake lenses are either obscenely priced, are ridiculously heavy, or have reportedly terrible QA. From what I've seen lately, usually all three are true.
You can get close in features and price with something like a Pico or a Quest, but they lack direct DisplayPort connection, so it's compressed wireless PCVR, compressed "wired" PCVR (which basically uses a networking protocol anyway), or no PCVR at all.
Myself, and I'm sure a ton of other people, are hoping for the Deckard to be "huge" for the PCVR market, just like the Index was when it released. Maybe we're all coping, and we probably even are, but I think a lot of people are generally unhappy with the state of the PCVR hardware market right now.
So all this is to say... I really hope this thing is much better than a glorified flat screen projector.
If you don't want to open this and solder a chip, then no, you can't do what you want.
The closest you can get is to enable AutoRCM, which will cause the Switch to always boot into recovery mode and accept a payload. This skips the need to use a jig in the Joy-Con rail, but you still need to inject a payload. And because recovery mode is just a black screen, you don't have any visual feedback to know if the Switch is actually in recovery mode, or if the battery is just dead.
Your best option is to just boot into whatever OS you use most, then make it a habit to keep it charged enough to not shut down.
However, I do believe they’re entering a very oversaturated market, with the likes of 8BITDO and GuliKit creating high-quality, affordable controllers in the same niche. ANBERNIC would have to aggressively outprice them to get any kind of attention, but only time will tell.
Not really. 8BitDo really blew it with the Ultimate. They confusingly have two different "versions" of it, and neither have the full range of device compatibility that previous 8BitDo controllers had. The most egregious exclusion from the Ultimate was Xinput over Bluetooth. I still have no idea why they decided to drop that.
Its design takes inspiration from a modern-day Xbox controller and is fully compatible with PC, Steam, Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS using Bluetooth 5.3 and 2.4g connection. It can also be connected using a USB-C wire too.
If this new controller has Xinput over Bluetooth, all of the compatibility from above, and a strong battery life, it might be a day 1 buy. It will have hall effect sticks, so this sounds like everything I wanted the 8BD Ultimate to be. I hope there aren't any showstoppers once reviews start coming out.
They've been on some kind of emulation crusade then, because it looks like they just killed Ryujinx:
They just sent out a mass email to users yesterday informing us of this, I got it too. I wonder if it wasn't getting enough attention, or if they wrote this back in June but only just made the article visible.
People need to understand what this will mean from a developer perspective before getting all up in arms. This initiative is more kneejerk emotional than it is realistic.
If you're going to watch only one of these videos, watch the second one:
Ah I see, that makes sense. Thanks for explaining, I learned something from your comment and the other one.
