    What is the more ethically-minded decision to make?

    That's the point. You're making an already hot area (not the inside of your house, the general area around your neighborhood) hotter by using A/C. But there's really no way around it, we either use it or leave...

    What is the more ethically-minded decision to make?

    A/Cs also generate heat to produce cold, so no, the energy consumption is not the only drawback. You're also actively making the (already hot) area hotter by using A/Cs. That said, just use your A/C, but try using solar power whenever you can.

    ArticBase, a tool to broadcast your 3DS games to an emulator, has been released

    You're jumping through way too much hoops to bypass a legislation that can be altered way more easily. If it ever becomes an issue, they'll just include it in their "law" Trying to use to common sense to circumvent laws, specially corpo-mandated ones, is not a very fruitful endeavor. As for the...

    Asus reveals the ROG Ally X, with better battery life and more "repair-friendly" design

    The Deck is still the king for a while in cost/benefit ratio and pure gaming performance, but I'd rather buy a GPD or Ayaneo products for the superior overall performance and usage as an actual PC when needed. I'll be getting an used Ayaneo 2 pretty soon. They (Chinese companies, at least)...

    The Meme Box

    No need to mix up all that. Just show a WoW screenshot with a decent amount of addons. And WoW has no tutorial :)

    GitLab has taken down the Suyu Nintendo Switch emulator

    Is there a problem in using a self-hosted version of GitLab for your hosting?

    GitLab has taken down the Suyu Nintendo Switch emulator

    This will keep happening as long as they keep using "pop" code hosting. There are so many DMCA-bully-free hosting options, that are themselves free to host too, that I really don't understand why people working in grey areas insist on using github/lab. A single google search will give you tons...

    Leak claims a PlayStation 5 Pro will launch later this year

    1 - You really don't need a Windows license for anything. 2 - You don't need any furniture either. I use my PC connected to the same TV as the PS5/Switch (both of which barely get some use these days), with a wifi kb+mouse. 3 - PS5/XS are definitely more value for your money when considering...

    Nintendo sends DMCA notices for "syspatch-updater" homebrew app by iTotalJustice

    TBQH, all we need is a Github alternative hosted in a country where DMCA can't reach. That's it.

    Fanmade PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening remakes the game in HD, with widescreen support

    To each their own. I find it unfun for this setting in particular.

    Fanmade PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening remakes the game in HD, with widescreen support

    After reassessing my experience with the game, it's quite simple really. You have to keep returning to locations you've been previously to look for secret passages. Then it dawned on me: The combat aspect is way too simple, which can be a plus to some, but it's a complete turnoff to me...

    Yuzu emulator shutting down, paying Nintendo 2.4 million in lawsuit settlement

    I can't believe the lead dev assumed people wouldn't pirate using emulators. That's unreal. Either way, what a sad day for the emulation scene. Here's hoping we get worthy successors in the future, for both dead emus. P.S.: Keep being a complete joke, US legal system.

    Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.

    @BigOnYa, Lol I bought a new USB card reader thing on AliExpress last month for I think like 87 cents. Free shipping from China... It arrived it works and honestly I don't understand how it was so cheap.
