Libelec (kodi) is fine if only playing local media but its use for anything else except realdebrid is extremely lacking. On the plus side it will run great on an Rpi5 and if you go that route you can probably even use your TV remote because Libelec has excellent CEC support.

Jellyfin/Plex is something your TV also probably has an app for, so you wouldn't even need a media center, just a media server.

Plasma Bigscreen is making slow gains, but in a couple of years will probably be the definitive Linux media center PC.

Also a bit unconventional, but Bazzite can load directly into Steam's big picture mode. From there you could set shortcuts for Jellyfin or Plex HTPC.

They seem to be working on uh, syncing all the sync features. There have been some updates recently.

My understanding is that it wasn't so much his "choice in tools" it was privacy concerns surrounding that choice.

I think CWA is the one to watch. It's progress has been slower but steady.

Crazy. It had a meteoric rise.

I guess CWA is the one to use now. In a way I'm glad the space will have only a single major player.

Ah cool, I'm not surprised. The Skyrim modding community is insane.

I think it could be cool for background NPC dialogue in big open RPGs like Skyrim. Imagine if townsfolk could have realistic conversations and interactions like bartering over good, etc. Nothing major or plot-dependent, obviously. Just something more natural than a handful of repeated, scripted and prerecorded phrases.

I would compare it to ray-tracing. Ray tracing means the artists don't have to plan out every single light beam, and the result is actually more realistic than if they had. A tactfully used LLM could mean they don't have to plan out every line of background dialogue and also achieve a more realistic result.

How is this vs NewPipe?

What you're looking for is called an "Alternative frontend". I'm not aware of a working one for Facebook but it might be worth searching around!

Wow that's hilarious, when I saw the headline I thought of SFA but I didn't realize it was literally mentioned in the article.

I think score aggregators are stupid in the first place and I feel bad for anyone who looks to them as a deciding factor on if they should watch something. The entire point of reading something from a reviewer is that you get to know what that person likes/dislikes. "enjoyableness" is not some numerically quantifiable thing and at best you'll just e chasing some bland average.

weird how many hoops you are willing to jump through to discourage anyone talking about the gays in a positive way 🤔

protip next time you want to LARP as a non bigot, don't call it "nutrek" that's a dead giveaway

man it's just crazy all the boxes that have to be checked in order to celebrate lgbt representation! its like the bar is set impossibly high! ugh! so crazy.

Obviously you are not a bigot and think representation is a good thing too! thats why it sucks that everything has to be just so perfectly aligned in order to celebrate it! ugh!
