The EU initiative Going Dark has now been launched by the EU Commission. They call it ProtectEU.

It’s a rebranding of Chat Control. New name. Same old propaganda.

The EU Commission’s goal is to “access encrypted data in a lawful manner, safeguarding cybersecurity and fundamental rights.”

The COVID hoax is the greatest scam of our lifetimes.

Politicians robbed us of life, liberty & property, which we can never get back.

Never forget what they did.

Orange Pi RV RISC-V SBC with StarFive JH7110 SoC launched for $30 and up

The Orange Pi RV SBC powered by a StarFive JH7110 RISC-V SoC was first introduced at the Orange Pi Development Conference 2024, a little over one year ago. But somehow, the company first launched the Orange Pi RV2 SBC based on Ky X1 SoC (rebranded Spacemit K1) earlier this month, and has only started taking orders for the O…

@special-boy @LukeAlmighty I think 1 2 Switch and a few Labo games. It's designed to detect hand gestures.

@LukeAlmighty The new joy-cons lack the IR sensor that was present in the OG Switch's right joy-con.

@naught101 @mwl It's already set to 'false' in LibreWolf by default. I just checked.

using #firefox or a derivative? Setting browser.ml.chat.enabled=false turns off the brand-new AI features.

You're welcome.

>i'm definitely not paying for GPS navigation in zelda though lmao

I just realized that it's literally the cut second screen functionality from the Wii U version repackaged as a paid smartphone app.

So let's see here:
>Marginally better graphics
>Games that are enhanced with the Switch 2, but you have to pay extra for the enhancements
>Only compatible with certain microSD cards
>A Mario Kart that allows you to drive in between races
>Even more unnecessary smartphone integration
>PORTS PORTS PORTS
>Deltatroon

The only good things I can say about it are the fact that Nintendo finally added built-in voice chat for their first-party games (not that shitty smartphone app) and the re-releasing of GameCube games.

Funny that when I was watching the Swtich 2 direct, I can clearly tell that the guy on the right with the curly hair was not excited about the thing. He probably agrees with me on this.

$80 for Mario Kart is gonna make the Switch 2 a hard sell. Especially in this economy.

Fanboys having an orgasm over playing Soul Calibur 2 when I can play that in Dolphin with HD textures all day everyday for free.

To be fair I haven't really liked Nintendo much since they screwed over the Wii U userbase with how quick they killed the console's support. Nintendo had great games in the yester year but their new stuff ain't the same.
