The “Smart Grid” is getting a makeover, but unfortunately, we will get all the unreliable alternative energy (wind, solar) and the high-priority sites like #AI data centers will get all the reliable #energy generated from coal, natural gas, and oil.

@PurpCat @Indigo
>Nintendo famously likes if you use their characters in their games if you're a third party dev and they approve of it.

Which is why I always argued that the Mother 4 team should've gotten official approval from Nintendo/Itoi instead of rebranding it into an original game. Itoi said that he would play a Mother 4 if someone else made it.

@Indigo I'm surprised that there has never been a Mario and Mickey Mouse crossover given that Miyamoto is a huge Disney fan and Nintendo is big enough to make a deal with them, but maybe Disney thinks that Kingdom Hearts is enough when it comes to video game crossovers.

@djsumdog @gabriel You could only download BitChute videos using the Brave browser. It used WebTorrent but only the BitChute server was the seeder.

I don't know what the future holds for Odysee now that LBRY is dead. It is the closest to a viable YouTube alternative, but it still uses a lot of JS from Google (though it's still viewable when disabled), and apparently the CEO claimed that they really don't care about free-speech and they might add stricter content policies once/if they get a sizable user base.

@djsumdog @gabriel Probably should've said "least bad". Of couse, conservative talk show hosts shill it so that's a huge red-flag there, but at least as of now, I can watch their videos via MPV which is why I usually choose the Rumble option when someone uploads to multiple sites.

@gabriel I've heard that Rumble is actually the most privacy respecting video sharing site right now, not including decentralized networks like PeerTube, provided that you either block the third-party JS or watch the videos via MPV.

@Indigo I never played any of the games outside of a demo for one of the winter games on DS back when you can download DS demos through the Wii. I never saw it as a big deal. I was only three years old when the Dreamcast was discontinued and we never owned any Sega consoles, so seeing Mario and Sonic together like this didn't make a big impact for me.

@sun I think more people should start packet analyzing games while the game is still live instead of waiting until the last minute. I feel like people don't start packet analyzing until it is almost too late. Case in point, the Nintendo Wi-Fi games weren't analyzed until mere months before the servers shut down.

@sun @coolboymew You could have the live services federate with each other and compare and copy each other's leaderboards, but it probably wouldn't be a perfect solution.

Nah- he was second. Woody Wilson gave us the FR and IRS in 1913. They needed more apparatus first.

@beardalaxy @SpurgAnon Depends on the optical lens. The one I have right now works fine on my bed sheets.

@waltercool Google, Microsoft, and Apple didn't become monopolies because of the free-market they become monopolies because of the government. Facebook started off as a DARPA project. Google is a similar story. And Microsoft and Apple hold power due to "intellectual property" laws.
