The Amish?

It’s because people are so used to tasting it in sweet foods.

IMO, where vanilla really comes into its own is in very small amounts in savoury foods.

Have you seen the AI-free DMG shader in RetroArch? It’s in shaders_slang/handheld/gameboy.slangp.

RetroArch already has excellent AI-free shaders for DMG-style, MGB-style, Gameboy Light-style looks for black and white, dot matrix games, and a GBC-style look for an excellent, all around LCD shader, along with countless excellent CRT shaders and presets.

You can find them in the shaders_slang/handheld folder.

DMG: gameboy.slangp

MGB: gameboy-pocket.slangp

Gameboy Light: gameboy-light.slangp

GBC/general LCD shader: authentic_gbc.slangp

We already have Xenia and Rexglue for 360 games and xemu for original Xbox games.

It’s not a black box since it’s FOSS, but it is indeed monolithic.

I still use systemd since I find it easy to work with and I’ve been using it for many years.

It’s also worth noting that the Linux kernel itself is monolithic and does not exactly follow the UNIX philosophy, but I’m not aware of any stable microkernels with the same level of functionality as Linux.

KiCad takes around 5 minutes to learn and is some of the best software for designing schematics and PCBs.

Falstad is great for when you need simulations of schematics and don’t want the headache of trying to use KiCad’s built in simulation tools.

Both are FOSS.

So this must be the Antifa I’ve been warned about… by the fascists.

I certainly did not fall for the propaganda as an American myself. As far as I know, most people didn’t, and people who didn’t like Obama for trivial reasons such as racism already didn’t like him regardless of the name “Hussein”.

Republicans also complained about Obama eating dijon mustard and wearing a tan suit. This is because the Republican party actually agreed with his policies for the most part. Obama called himself an 80s-era Republican around the middle of his tenure.

Who is “we”? Obama was born before Saddam Hussein got any kind of political power.

It has the TIA, which is as close to a picture processor (and also audio synthesizer) as you can get, but due to the 128 bytes of RAM, there was not enough RAM to form a framebuffer, hence the need to race the beam.

Interesting things that are not on the list:

• Farming equipment
• Motor and electric vehicles
• Computers (including laptops)
• Video game consoles
• HVAC systems and equipment

Not sure if smart TVs fall under “electronic displays”, or if they just mean commercial displays when they say that.

You can disable ACR on your TV by disconnecting it from the internet.

That screenshot is specifically from the Atari 2600. You can tell because sprites that are next to each other are offset by one vertical pixel, which was a common effect used to help with hardware limitations.

It’d be nice to have extremely niche communities that are active. I just don’t want to have bot accounts or paid propagandists on Lemmy like what Reddit currently has.

I understand social democracy very well and I don’t think it’s a good system because the capitalist class ultimately stays in charge, which will inevitably lead to corruption and the slow reverting of social services. I used to be a social democrat myself around when Bernie started to run for president the first time, so I understand why the premise is popular.

My idea of socialism includes:

• Workers owning the businesses they work for with no exceptions, which eliminates worker exploitation and enshittification
• Having a hard wealth cap (both realized and unrealized) of between $10-50 million tied to inflation
• A universal basic income that is enough to thrive, which will allow people to persue hobbies and become entrepeneurs without fear of failure
• Having all basic necessities be guaranteed and universally available without means testing (healthcare, housing, utilities, food, etc.)
• A universal right to dignity and privacy (eliminate mass surveillance both from governments and from companies, police and prisons must treat people with respect, similar to the Norweigan system)
• Create a government organization that publicly audits code to ensure that neither malicious foreign or domestic actors have the ability to hack into computers to the best of their ability, and have a state bug bounty program for all open source code
• Have the government own essential infrastructure as voted on by the people (public infrastructure, prisons, the military, schools, etc.)
• Have a more direct form of democracy, eliminating representatives in favor of direct voting on legislation wherever possible to aid in abolishing corruption
• Eliminate the Supreme Court’s ability to unilaterally enact laws
• Public funding of elections where representatives are needed, along with a new voting system (RCV, STAR, etc. depending on what mathmeticians agree represents the people best for each individual scenario)
• Ban all advertising, especially political. If any individual is getting paid to speak in any form that is not directly advertising, who pays must be disclosed or else face prosecution
• Ban all for-profit news organizations, excluding independent outlets who receive their funding from small-dollar donations
• Ensure that nobody is above the law by allowing the public as a whole to sue individuals and organizations, even if they were not directly affected by whatever crime has been committed

And that’s just what I came up with and is by no means comprehensive.

The difference between it being an option and it being mandated is that when the level of greed we see today is allowed to exist, then it will exist, and power will slowly and inevitably be taken away from the worker class.

There are also multiple types of socialism, and socialism doesn’t necessarilly mean government ownership specifically. Check out Professor Richard Wolff’s excellent lectures on the topic.

Not a movie, but a TV commercial.

Jack Black starred in an ad for Pitfall on the Atari 2600 when he was a kid.

New Speedy Fun Way.
