Wine is entirely doing it I think, my understanding is the runner is just a fancy configuration tool that makes it easier to get specific things running. Wine has reversed engineered so much and it works great, but sometimes you may need to set several config values to something for a particular app to work right. Imo getting the current office suite running is probably more impressive than any non-game app out there. It’s using wine on hard mode.

You have buttons on your website, which write data somewhere that matters, without any authentication shielding them from being clicked by unexpected bots/people? If no authentication, this is bound to happen bot or otherwise.

Primarily because it makes your setup easily repeated and able to be quickly stood up on new machine

I use a RPI 5 for this purpose but it’s hard to recommend it at this point. Some videos play just fine but others struggle and drop frames. Seems totally random at times. I can promise though that 4k will not play watchably. 1080p is the max you can do and like I said, even that can be iffy. It was mostly a fun project to setup but also annoying at times due to concerns with ARM compatibility, but I really wish the performance was better. If I could smoothly watch 4k without being tracked all of it would’ve been worth it and then some.

Edit: if anyone has a good recc for a power efficient and budget friendly mini pc, I’d love that myself.

So I figured out what film this is referencing but what does this caption have to do with… Anything?

So thousands of people show up in person to just watch screens? That’s funny if so

All true. It also is annoying that many times some douche stood on a stage and excitedly announced 10-15 year old tech products/features as if they were groundbreaking and they are met with some of the loudest applause you’ve ever heard.

Apple is fucking garbage every day of the year. So? So is every tech company. Apple just lies the most about being good, so it’s understandable they’d get extra hate from informed people.

No I understand. I don’t think anyone is implying that because mushrooms aren’t plants that it makes veganism bullshit. My response came from a place of me wishing things like that could be discussed without the black and white thinking. I haven’t heard anyone discuss that. And I have a feeling the knee jerk reaction would normally be defensive.

It also kinda seems like his headphones aren’t working. The guy has recorded a lot of music with decent vocals. In fact I used to really like the band primarily due to the vocals. Something is wrong here to the point that I almost wonder if it’s fake.

Edit: watched it again. This must’ve been a joke. There’s no way the dude thought he was singing this song acceptably

No one said any of that here.

I guess you’re going for hoardes of people vomiting like in that one family guy episode. Might work.

Yeah. I think it comes down to the absolutism. They almost certainly ate some amount of meat/animal products themselves, but once they arrived at their current principles, they have no more understanding for it. Rather than remember that they too had to learn/work to get to their understanding, they see you as an enemy for not sharing it. Of course I mean if you offer even the slightest pushback.

I’ve reduced my meat intake by a lot and I agree with what you wrote here. If vegan food was widely available everywhere I’d probably eat WAY less animal products. But dozens of vegans online have given no shits about that, whereas a reasonable person would, and would have some level of empathy toward not being 100% with them on everything they say in terms of applying the knowledge. I totally get wondering how a person could acknowledge animal suffering and still participate in it. I’ve examined myself over that one hundreds of times now. But it’s the reality, it’s where I’m at. And I should be able to talk about it without an automatic assumption that I’m a thoughtless monster who is trying to tear down their worldview. I’m not. Is this about me personally? I’m talking about so obviously yes it’s sorta personal that I have these unpleasant and unproductive conversations on the Internet sometimes, but I truly would rather them not happen for anyone else either. For the toxic assholes who really do want to tear down veganism, they’re worse people, but I already knew that. For the vegans spewing hatred at all the “carnists” I expect better and I think I’m right to. They changed their lives for a good reason. Now why the fuck can’t they talk about it the majority of the time? It’s frustrating.

That’s fine. You’re not able to understand that I am not against you. I’ll block you now to avoid this in the future.
