Road to my own PC...

TV out works! I pushed it to 128x96
Keyboard input almost ;) got some interference/loose cables. I will buy a propper PS/2 connector later.

@w84death Wow, that's dreamy! Keep it up. I plan to do something like this one day...

Americans alone have the right to shape their elections. Individuals like Mostafa Sarmadi seek to meddle. Aid justice and democracy by sharing any information on this individual.

Whoever decided that using computers for voting is pretty naive.

@itnewsbot I hate piracy... but emulators are not illegal.

Damn, looks like Yuzu is donezo now.

Rip LDN for the time being, because afaik you need a Yuzu account to run that atm. 😔

@Shanoa Looks like there is more to the story than this. There was a lawsuit theverge.com/2024/3/4/24090357

I always assumed that Yuzu was just a company-less open-source project like many others, but I just read that Yuzu had a company behind it,

@Shanoa That stinks.... At least, since it's open-source, people can theoretically continue development of it. Unless I'm missing something.
I get it though... I hate piracy too

Finally, a positive use for AI!

Been playing with a free new tool from the folks at Unit 221B that uses AI to read news stories or watch Youtube videos and give them a bias or "spin" score, based on a number of criteria (bias, fallacy, misleading info).

One potentially cool thing about this tool is that you can feed it a story you've written (but not published yet) to see if it contains any of those criteria. It even has an option to read a "bias-free" version of the story you've submitted, which alters the text in an attempt to temper or remove those biases.

The one downside is it can take some time to process a story and tell you what it thinks of it. Here are some links to Spin Score's analyses on different stories that came across my feed here today or that showed up on Youtube front today.

I might know a lot of things about computers, but one thing I don't know is why is using over half a gigabyte of memory.

@CM30 I wish Mastodon polls were more permissive....

@torproject @tails Not enough systems have protection against malicious USB devices...

@tekeous @mike I'm not disagreeing with the warning necessarily but that's what I was thinking!
