It’s been patched for ages. I’ve certainly been using it daily since around August or September of 2023 including all day today.

Revanced is your friend

I was gonna say Jet Set Radio Future too. I absolutely love the cel shading art style. Will check out Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, thanks

Thailand is full of western roid-heads and they have a decent online presence. Vigorous Steve on YouTube is a good starting point

Judas goat! Judas goat! Judas goat!

None. I use Premiumize with Plex for fast downloads and a Netflix style interface once I have the content. And IPTV if I want to watch movie channels

I use EPG dot best. They’re an EPG provider who give you lots of detailed information about each channel and show/movie and nice clean logos and everything.

You can filter large EPG files from your IPTV provider into much smaller ones that only include the channels you actually watch. The smaller EPG file means that the app uses less RAM on my Nvidia Shield too

It’s not free and it’s kinda finicky to set up, with a weird workflow, but it works well once that’s done

If an app asks me to rate it, or checks what my rating is going to be before sending me to either a feedback form or Google Play, depending on my response, then it instantly gets a 1 star review

Nut rice, gawd

Surely this is satire?

I suspect that these big corporations were advised by banks and the government to scale back work from home policies to avoid triggering a real estate market collapse in cities by vacating expensive office space en masse. This could cause defaults by landlords and a housing crisis as workers no longer need to pay premiums to live near offices. An exodus from cities would crater housing markets, which would severely damage the overall economy. Thus corporations are pushing for office returns to shed some staff but also to avert an economic crisis, despite the cost savings of remote work

Looks like Cinnamon is the way to go, thanks. I’ll give it a spin tomorrow, thanks for your help

Plenty of good info there, thanks for the thorough response. I’ll probably go the live USB route, which I’d forgotten was a thing. That way any hardware issues should be apparent pretty quickly

Yeah, there’s definitely a big sunk cost thing going on too

Absolutely, this return to office stuff has been an absolute gift for CEOs wanting to downsize, it’s the perfect fluffy PR way to turn the thumbscrews. Factor in the popular idea that you’re a slacker if you don’t work hard all the time and you basically have public support too.

I’m sure plenty of people will just suck it up and view the past few years as a very extended break from office nonsense and commuting hassle, but enough will jump ship to fill quotas

What version on Linux is most like Windows? I’m not a gamer and nearly everything I do runs in a browser so compatibility isn’t going to be an issue, but any time I’ve tried to migrate over it’s been a nightmare of weird errors and non-stop troubleshooting

Have you tried Pi? It’s pretty amazing!

And Claude might help with your writers block if you ask for ideas

I travel a lot and I swear I’ve never seen the same shower design twice. There’s so many different freakin’ ways to deliver a stream of water to your head and they nearly all require some level of finessing. I’m assuming it all stems from an 1800s court case about patents but fuck that judge and everyone involved that day

Exactly, it’s total garbage. I’ve been training the algo for years, no way I’m giving that up

I leave it on, the suggestions are good as far as I can tell. What’s everyone’s beef with it?

I don’t get the YouTube hate in general. It’s much more interesting than Netflix or TV so I’m happy to pay, although I pay Argentina rates courtesy of subscribing while connected to my VPN and I use Sponsor Block to skip the in-video ad reads. It still counts
