Depends on how dumb a TV you’re talking about. You may need to downconvert the video signal to something the TV accepts.

My current project is getting a bunch of old consoles connected here:

TV supports Coaxial, Composite, S-Video, and Component. So most of the consoles can just connect directly.

The Xbox One is HDMI only, so I need to downconvert that:

#MAYBE I WOULD!!!?

You can control what programs open on boot in the task manager. Teams was one of the first things I disabled.

Still infinitely more likely than if Republicans win.

Looks pretty generic, like King of Fighters…

I think smarter people than me will have to figure it out and even then it’s going to be a war of escalation. Ban the bots, build better bots, back and forth back and forth.

Some news sites had an interesting take on comments sections. Before you could comment on an article, you had to correctly answer a 5 question quiz proving you actually read it.

But AI can do that now too.

Sure I can… See? (waves hand) :)

Had an NES, SNES, and N64 back when they were new, never cared for them. Traded in the SNES and games for the PS1, traded in the N64 and games for the Dreamcast. No regrets!

I’m not sure what you mean by “dark patterns” in this context. Isn’t this just marketing?

Is it that the more expensive choice is pre-selected? That the discounted price is likely just the real price and it’s never sold at the higher price? (that one got Saatva in trouble! - https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/open-lawsuit-settlements/11-5m-saatva-com-false-advertising-class-action-settlement/)

Allentown?

Nah, photo just looks like it.

Top left looks like allspice berries.
Top right are whole cloves you need to grind yourself. They’re like little sticks otherwise.
Right hand side are whole star anise (you know, the ones that look like stars.)

All good stuff to have around, but I wouldn’t call those three at least “exotic”.

Not sure on the rest.

Wow, I’m 97% certain I saw this Star Wars knock off on TV when I was a kid but could never remember what it was. Thank you for this!

Oh, but it’s what passes for transparency on the Saturn. :)

Yup. Sega had it figured out and enabled Fishbowl Head in Virtua Fighter Kids, but it was out of the reach of 3rd party developers.

Particularly interesting in that the Saturn had known problems with transparencies.

Start with Soul Calibur and Phantasy Star Online, and Metropolis Street Racer, I spent more time with those than anything else.

It’s worth noting that the system is easy to emulate, I have it running on my Steam Deck.

Soul Calibur, Phantasy Star Online.

Colecovision was the bomb. Couldn’t afford it, but it was great!

Sounds like Patreon with extra steps…

This isn’t an argument, this is just contradiction!
