Yeah, that's fair. There's also plenty of other things that are bad for you in similar ways, like ultra processed food. Maybe the better way is to regulate the production and trade so the harm can be reduced, like what the FDA does.

Libretube still works pretty good if you self-host your own private instance. You still need to use HLS though.

Artist: designs really cool visual for gamers to see before launching

Sony: "Oooo, free ad real-estate!"

That was my interpretation too. Still lawlessness, but for the police.

What is even the grounds for this? You can't call election interference on a private company because of a preference for a candidate. That's like if Harris wanted to sue Fox News for a bias towards Trump. Private companies are allowed to have biases.

It is also completely possible that the supposed preferential treatment may be due to public opinion and news reporting. Kinda like how if you lie a lot, people call you out on it, but that doesn't make it illegal that they don't call out your opponent equally as much.

I love how this video explains the differences between the voting methods. It's what made me prefer STAR over RCV.

Low IQ: it's not a straight line

Medium IQ: it's a geodesic on a sphere, so it is a straight line

High IQ: it's not a straight line

Lol, it took me a while to realize it's the compiler essentially saying "how high".

Since the only way to obtain a WiiU gamepad is to take one from an existing system, this development will help revive old systems without taking from the limited WiiU gamepad market.

Skip to 2:28 if you just want the development info and not the context and history.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's not enough to delete the files in the commit, unless you're ok with Git tracking the large amount of data that was previously committed. Your git clones will be long, my friend

Lmao, that's putting it lightly.
