If you have romantic feelings for someone it means you want to be romantic with them, but you can choose not to be due to other reasons - like previous trauma.

It's insanely powerful yet sips power like a raspberry pi.

It has a full OS that is mainstream so it's easy to find any help you need.

It's the best bang for your buck machine on the market.

It can run everything you want a home server to run.

Do you disagree? Why?

Try doing your work maybe?

There are lots of people online who think they are smarter than they are haha

Doing it this way is super simple and comes with many benefits and pretty much zero drawbacks. Another huge benefit is you can then sign up to backblaze personal computer backup plans which give you unlimited data backups for like $10 a month. I currently have my entire media library along with my entire Mac Mini hard drive (over 40TB in total) backed up in backblaze. To do that with a NAS would cost me thousands of dollars a year.

Who cares how it looks to others. If you have to have the last word then don’t block them.

[–] FreedomAdvocate 1 points 25 minutes ago

Same. I tell some idiots that I’m going to block them and then just stop replying and enjoy watching them chuck a tantrum haha

Unfortunately pretty much every single mod hides their username on the mod logs, and usually give the most vague ban reasons possible.

Do those communities not have mods? Oh they do? Report them if they’re breaking the rules then. If they’re not breaking the rules then you just need to harden up.

You need to harden up even if they are breaking the rules though.

You don’t get to make that decision.

It’s not your content when you’re posting it in public forums. It’s public content.

If you want to be able to see when people spread “misinformation” about you, don’t block people.

But they’re not being harassed because they can’t see it…..

[–] FreedomAdvocate 1 points 46 minutes ago

But if you don’t see what they’re saying, why do you care? How does it affect you?

What you want is to be able to silence them because you don’t like what they’re saying, ie censorship.

 

This is my first time using ArkOS - are there any settings changes that people always make first when setting up a device with it? What GUI do you like? Can you download different ones?

I've recently moved from using my PC to emulate retro games to a R36S (game boy style but with 2 analogue sticks as well) handheld and have fallen in love with having them in a portable device.

I'm looking at purchasing a bigger and much newer and more powerful device so was looking for advice on things like what the pros and cons of some popular devices are, what OS people prefer, what emulators people use, etc. My R36S is running ArkOS which is ok.

I'm thinking a clamshell device would be nice, but a Switch-style would be fine as long as the controls aren't too snug. As close to "full size" analogue sticks would be ideal too, I hate and can't get used to tiny ones like on this R36S or sliders like on the 3DS.

Don't really have a set budget. Would like to be able to emulate up to and including Wii U via Dolphin if possible, but I know that's pushing it. PS2 or DC level would be acceptable too. Alternatively a really good "up to and including PS1" device would be an option.

Some that I've seen that look good:

  • Retroid Flip 2

  • Anbernic RG556 (I think the 557 isn't getting very good reviews)

  • Retroid Pocket 5

  • Anbernic RG Arc (because the Megadrive 6 button controller is the GOAT of the 8/16 bit generations.

  • Anbernic RG CubeXX

 

X has received executive orders from the Indian government requiring X to block over 8,000 accounts in India, subject to potential penalties including significant fines and imprisonment of the company’s local employees. The orders include demands to block access in India to accounts belonging to international news organizations and prominent X users.

X is exploring all possible legal avenues available to the company. Unlike users located in India, X is restricted by Indian law in its ability to bring legal challenges against these executive orders. However, we encourage all users who are impacted by these blocking orders to seek appropriate relief from the courts.
