Just buy an air mouse for $20 and you don’t have to get up to change episodes. Doesn’t help with having to unplug it from the hdmi all the time but that’s less of a hassle if you can just do it once when you start watching and then control everything from the couch.

Or they just made an announcement in 2021 about their existing content management tools and how much they’ve spent on them over the years. That’s how I read it anyway.

I’ve installed many non steam games on my deck, but the vast majority were ones I already had on my PC. I’ve found the easiest way by far is just to copy over the installed game folder to the steamdeck via ftp and add to steam. Only one game I’ve had to do any fiddling with so far, and that was just installing vcc studio dependencies with wine tricks. Other than that everything has worked with zero fiddling.

Also made me think of progesterone.

Dictation in some cases sure, but it’s not really secure if you’re around people, and could also get weird talking to air all the time. I think if ar/wearable screens really want to take off were going to need an entirely new input method. Typing on a virtual keyboard is just so impractical, especially if you’re say on a train or something. I think it’ll be something like what I described, a lightweight wearable glove or fingertip sensor or something, and you input based on fingertip taps. You can keep your hands down by your sides while typing, don’t have to flail about in the air just to quickly google something or answer the text that popped up on your glasses. Or a physical little keypad that can slip in your pocket, but with few enough buttons that you can type without having to look at it, like t9 texting.

Oh yeah, I meant eventually, not with this device. I doubt this will take off honestly, the tech is too new and bulky and expensive still. If virtual environments ever do become prolific though, I doubt we’ll still use a visual representation if a keyboard at all, what would be the point.

I can imagine a return to some sort of t9 style typing where you could wear a thin sensor on your finger tips then tap certain fingers a certain number of times to enter specific characters. People who were used to typing with t9 could do it very quickly and without looking.

You said nothing is really free.

I’ve been using a $20 air remote off Amazon for years now. The tracking is honestly incredible and the device is built like an old Nokia phone. I’ve launched it off the bed or couch hundreds of times, even had the plastic casing bust open, but when I clicked it back together it still works good as new, and it’s even good enough to play simple point and click/mousepowered games on the TV. The front is all media/TV controls and the back is a full keyboard, with a toggled backlight. It’s honestly so much better than any of the media center remotes I’ve used including the apple tv one or the firestick one.

Sunil just had a bad experience with Ubuntu and now he thinks the whole distro is satanic.

How is a timer different from an alarm? Except more pressure to fall asleep immediately? Also just set your alarm for 7.5 hours ahead though?

That’s crazy, I haven’t used Netflix in a while but when I did one of the main reasons was the variety of subtitles/audio dub options. Even when watching from other countries through my VPN for access to stuff that was blocked in my country, it always had English subtitles and usually like 20 other languages, and for foreign language shows you could choose any combination of dubbed/original language audio and any language subtitles.

Actually Halo was the doctor, the shooty guy is called Halo’s monster.

I think it’s more that the pictures being represented as real is what’s damaging though…

Does everyone on 4chan have a humiliation fetish? That’s a rhetorical question, because obviously who else would go on 4chan.

It doesn’t mention diet, nutrition or food even once actually. You’re just full of shit apparently. Or provide a quote from the article?

Acesss to modern healthcare? The ability to hunt with modern techniques/tools? There’s lots of possibilities which is why we need to study things not just make overarching statements and take them as fact. You’re making enormous assumptions with no evidence, which is what you were complaining about with the other person, even when provided with (admittedly specious, but interesting) evidence.

Lifespan for literally every group I can think of has gone massively upwards. Any evidence that that’s due to diet in the inuit case? Any evidence that the diets of the people referenced even changed?

Well documented fact, source: trust me bro

After complaining about actual sources.

I mean the spaceships in star trek, star wars and firefly all have pretty different interiors. Of your idea is to draw in fans of specific shows you don’t really want to have a “generic sci fi” setting.
