I don’t think you can stop then from spawning, but a bunch of boats can effectively capture them until they despawn. I’ve seen a more complicated raid farm design that uses them to help them off of afk players in the kill box.

It’s funny how well linux works with printers, no stupid hp app, no configuration. Just hit print and done.

Spoilers, smartphones. Smartphones are what happened in 2012.

I wasn’t recommending it for that?

I said that it wouldn’t be good for streaming apps, like Netflix, and the previous comment was asking about Plex specifically.

Not for the shield, but there’s a Chinese device, Ugoos am6b+, that you can install coreelec on.

Coreelec is a linux os designed to run kodi, add a plex add on and it can play almost anything.

Any dolby vision profile, including the one that can usually only be played on bluray players. Any audio including TrueHD, dolby atmos, and DTS.

Sucks for streaming apps sadly, so you’d have to get another device like Apple TV or something.

It could be, but making a game about alternate time lines with Paul atreides is not the setting I would choose for a dune MMO. It sounds like it would be a fantastic single player game setting.

Personally I like the idea of MMOs but have yet to find one I actually like.

Sounds like something a nazi would say.

And if they wanted their own little naziverse on the fediverse nobody could stop them, but compared to every other social media platform most of lemmy deplatformed and banned nazis, while they get privileged status on Facebook or Twitter.

Oh they tried, they got banned and any instance they spun up got defederated.

Turns out they don’t like just each other very much. And those instances did not grow on their own.

This would be so much more interesting if it wasn’t an MMO.

I actually decided to cancel my ChatGPT subscription since it started to be so useless, for code generation, and writing help.

I’m so far pretty happy with Claude, but I’ve only used it Friday.

Like one of the things that it would do is give me wrong code, I’d fix it, give it back the corrected code to add something else, and it would remove the corrections and other things it added earlier!

I think at that point I’d mail a certified letter and cancel whatever card it’s on.

That probably wouldn’t work but one can dream.

It’s still free, just under a different plan named lite https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/plan/lite/

Yeah it’s annoying and shitty, but it’s not so bad.

It’s mostly an issue in rural and suburban areas. The grocery store closest to me feels like it’s price gouging (Safeway) , and I try and go to other grocery stores for bigger trips like Wegmans or H-Mart.

Meat is especially bad, like $10/lb for ground chicken bad. Meanwhile at H-Mart it’s $3/lb.

Supermarkets should have cheaper prices, but now that they have formed a monopoly of just a few companies they are not.

Small shops keep supermarkets competitive, without them they become monopolistic.

“This is the first demonstration of high resolution up-conversion imaging from 1550-nm infrared to visible 550-nm light in a non-local metasurface," said author Rocio Camacho Morales. "We choose these wavelengths because 1,550 nm, an infrared light, is commonly used for telecommunications, and 550 nm is visible light to which human eyes are highly sensitive. Future research will include expanding the range of wavelengths the device is sensitive to, aiming to obtain broadband IR imaging, as well as exploring image processing, including edge detection.”

That does not sound like an Infrared camera.

Uh no? Cars have functions, and very real material costs that digital art does not.

How long until someone hacks a way to get some of those working anyway

To me it actually felt like a regression.

One of my favorite things in skyrim/oblivion/fallout 4 was environmental storytelling, and this just has none.

I just want to know when it’s going start being fun.

It’s not gas that’s making it dark, its dust, small particles made out of some combination of iron, silicates, carbonaceous materials, and other elements.
