Yeah, Biden did it first, but in his defence, Trump’s idea of “security” was a disused bathroom at Mar-a-Lago sooooo…

Meh, at this point the less either of them know the better.

Ahhh cute sneks. We didn’t have a snake community last I checked but that was ages ago.

Me too! I was remembering the Intel incident when they discovered processors didn’t calculate math correctly and turned a batch into keychains. I still have mine somewhere …

Since you can’t use GPU for rendering or recording, a faster CPU couldn’t hurt and is probably your best bet, but it isn’t really thaaaat old. (There being no other hardware bottlenecks of course)

There are, cough cough I think, ways to decrypt and record HDCP protected streams but I’d imagine you’d have to have a render unit and recording unit in your setup. Sort of complicated.

Ah bummer. That’s most of my software tricks. I’d break out my hardware equipment next step, but that’s pricy.

Not terribly off topic, but I’ve been wondering if cage free or free range has had an affect on the spread of bird flu. Our state banned cages long ago, but we still seem hit hard.

We have a local pultry ranch and last I heard they were hit pretty hard, but I think they are free range. I’ve also had a neighbor with a couple chickens in her backyard have to cull one. Oh, and one report of a cat dying. (It’s really bad for pets)

No.

But why would the richest man in the world care in a consequence-free clusterfuck?

That PC should be able to play a stream just fine. I’d check if there background apps hogging resources and make sure hardware acceleration is active. Scale the resolution down (no point of upscaling 1080p content) and record to a lower resource intensive format, perhaps h.264 vs h 265/HEVC.

Can someone from The Satanic Temple run for prez next?

It’s a thing now I guess. We are what the prez says we are…

Unless there is a fee for vacancies, there is no reason to fill units that are built. More doesn’t necessarily mean available and ownership of large number of properties gives landlords leverage in the market.

The Republicans have a plan and leadership to follow through, rules or not. Democrats are stuck in a system that is stacked against them and I haven’t seen anything but reactionary chaos.

Maybe assert control over their responsibilities, such as federal budget. You don’t need the majority, last I heard, to tell the prez to bugger off out of his territory. Stop handing the president congresses powers.

Edit: I see states are suing to stop, which is a big, big plus, but congress controls the purse. Kick them out or take a page from the Republican playbook and shut down the gov.

I don’t get it. That was… 19 months ago?

It ended a while ago for many of us.

From what I can tell, they are still playing defence. They need to start poking bears. Use the laws even if outnumbered. Show force; show pressure.

“Good” media is disappearing and what we have is filtered through Trump’s jockstrap. Tell us what is happening. Get the word out. We can’t help if all we hear is what has happened.

The rules have changed and democrats are still using a textbook from 1990.

Hell, I’m not politician but I’m more qualified then many bozos sitting fat and happy. Maybe I’ll run. My campaign message will be “Maybe don’t be a dick this time?” Ha!

Challenge consolidation of power, write bills to block it from happening, start impeachment processes, organize protests, be active in community and media, coordinate with states, public service messages, etc.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing

Democrats were caught with pants down. Yeah, it sucks, but it’s time to put the hot dogs away and get back to work.

I do, but outnumbered doesn’t mean give up.

We know. Stop sounding alarms and do something. It’s your jobs and why we elected you. Get off your asses senate democrats.

Go students! Yahoo!

There was a little protest at our local highschool yesterday. You guys were heard!

I feel like all of us are picturing the same exact shop owner right now, never having met them.

Oh, the stories they can tell.

Edit: Whoa, saw the X post pics. Was not far off! Ha!

While I like to agree with that vision of decentralized social media, even here on lemmy we have our own pitfalls. Echo chambers are unchecked and defederation (even justified) happens.

I don’t assume everyone here is a real person. There was a article recently that AI was training “persuasiveness” using reddit subreddits. I have to believe a similar trial exists on the fediverse least I be caught off guard.

Plus, there are a lot of folks here (it seems like a majority sometimes in my personal experience) that are quick to advocate violence/sabotage in lieu of negotiation and debate. That reaks of puppeteering; there can’t be that many arseholes here, right?

I know I have some strong biases that lean towards peace, and I’m confused sometimes why a comment of mine in the fediverse gathers double digit upvotes steadily only to plummet to the negatives overnight. I get old reddit botnet vibes on some topics.

I suppose I want to like lemmy, the freedom, these communities, but it is still polarizing and influenceable by [insert tech/political/financial interests]. I don’t trust this enough to recommend to friends and family, but my presence here makes it a fraction more what I want to be.

We’re going to dedicate money and resources to clean and rebuild another city in another country, make it sparkling and new, and religious war will just disappear and there will be peace forever?

You can’t even do that with our own cities devastated by natural disasters!
