Apparently the Switch version runs so shity on the Switch, people hacked the Switch and put Linux on it and ran the game in Yuzu emulator which had better performance than running natively in the Switch OS. Maybe that’s more of a knock against Nintendo however.

There's a reason we aren't as harsh on the Steam Deck. Actually, a couple. in c/[email protected]

Charts like that are great, I love to see them. However, they need to have a year for the inflation-adjusted dollars else it’s nearly meaningless when referred back to.

Why Is Everyone Trying To Assassinate Certain Politicians? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I suspect it has something to do with hearing this a thousand times while growing up:

If you could go back in time to stop Hitler, would you do it?

And the very real parallels to the things that has surrounded a certain politician and Nazi rise to power. But I’m pretty stupid so I could be wrong.

Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up

Why are there so many streaming services? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 16 hours ago

I went to physical media (legally acquired) and spent countless hours format shifting to self host (Jellyfin) and never looking back. At this point if I can’t buy it, I don’t watch it.

People who pirated in the late 90s and early 00s what is the most dramatic change from then till now? And if you had the power what would you bring back? in c/[email protected]

[USA] With Chevron Overturned, Does That Limit DEA Drug Scheduling? (lemmy.ml)
 

With the recent overturned Chevron defense by SCOTUS, I was trying to find some good. DEA’s Drug War is arguably bad (not looking for that conversation here), so does Chevron overturned make their Drug Schedules weaker by law and can be more easily challenged and overturned?

[Bug] [iOS] Settings Reset Periodically (lemmy.ml)
 

For some reason (I’m suspecting after an app update?), sometimes I open the Voyager iOS app and all of my settings have reset. I browse in compact, so I know right away something is off because the post images are huge. I did visit vger.app inside the app browser inside Voyager app, maybe that did it?

Post sorting methods seem broken recently (lemmy.ml)

Hi all, a few weeks ago I started noticing a change to the active and hot sorting methods. They show stale topics and I miss the boat on conversations. Seems like something changed and just curious if it’s just me or if others are seeing this too?

3D SBS Rip-Encodes (lemmy.ml)
 

Ahoy mateys, I’ve sailed the docs and rode the forums but I need some help on how best to rip and encode a 3D BRD. I’ve managed to use ffmpeg to create a kind of SBS video but it’s wrong and there’s a green bar between the feeds. What is the magic sauce I’m missing? Makemkv is what I used to rip.

Anyone have some one-liners or tips in the documentation that don’t suck?

The US’s latest attempt to chill speech online, KOSA-a bill to effectively force everyone to identify themselves to online platforms-is picking up steam and looking like it will pass the Senate.

I keep seeing removed in a lot of comments and posts and my question is why is that?
