Many smart TVs still give you popups telling you to connect to the internet or they simply refuse work without connection. There’s not a very good way to tell if any smart TV you get will do this ahead of time without looking over reviews, and even then many people just connect their TVs anyway so it might not show up there either.
I’d prefer to just have a display that works as a display from the start and not have to worry about it.
A couple follow-ups, are we limited by the rules of the game, or is it like we’re actually living there? Like if I’m in gta v, do i get to pick up a pencil and write a book, is everything in the game at real-life fidelity, or am i stuck with the regular game inputs and graphics?
Am i able to add mods to the game? Can i add new mods after my first startup? I would assume there’s a way to reset or restart the game in case of bugs and softlocks so maybe there’s a hub i can use to do those kinds of things.
I think i might pick gmod + mods. That way i could build some interesting projects in sandbox, play games that people make for it, maybe even watch some YouTube early on before compatibility breaks. I’d also have a 1:1 scale model of the multiverse to explore.
You have no idea what’s happening here, do you?
I hope so. Traditionally the fascist way is to pick off small groups so they don’t have to frog boil as much. Hoping they overstep their bounds and people get pissed and do something.
You know, i really underestimated how much Lemmy users operated on kneejerk reactions with my comments here. I guess there nothing i can do about that though. Seeing this kind of reaction to a perfectly reasonable opinion is just kind of exhausting.
I have a Twitter account that i haven’t posted on in years. I only use it to view posts that my friends have sent me. I keep telling them to stop using Twitter but they won’t listen. My usage, if anything, is costing Twitter money to serve me the content on my browser that does not allow for ads or tracking.
So then tell me, how does it make you a dunce if you have an account and don’t use it, or if you have to use it for business? Consuming content on there is pretty stupid because every alternative is better and not run by Nazis, but just having an old account?
You’re only a dunce if you ONLY have a Twitter account
Edit: Jesus i really struck a nerve here, didn’t i? I was not planning on getting into an argument like this 😕
Very few people here seem to understand how high the bar is to get a violent revolution going.
Your average American upon believing that the revolution has started will shake their heads and maybe have casual conversations with their friends about that crazy revolution that got started while they drink beer at their local bar or bingo hall or whatever, and leave early cuz they gotta get up for work tomorrow.
No revolution is happening without the government making some serious disruptions to those people’s way of life, and even then most of them will just blame immigrants like they’re told.
?? I don’t really understand what your goal is here
*I love using thumbs up in a way that invokes absurdist situational irony by laying out an absurd situation that the other person expects an explanation for, but instead receives a friendly affirmation in the form of the thumbs up emoji, which exemplifies situational irony by subverting the other person’s expectations of what the situation is actually about.
I love using thumbs up ironically. Like is someone trying to ask for an explanation to why i don’t sit down to shit? 👍
I’m not making a claim to the efficacy of capitalism. Quite the opposite, really. I’m saying con men will try to reinstate it so they can put themselves at the top.
I honestly think people will keep trying to sell capitalism to make themselves rich in the same way time shares still get sold when everybody knows they’re scams.

Are you sure? It looks a while lot like the TADIP button
Is it possible for you to modify models? It might be worthwhile to try looking into assets that can be billboarded or are baked down from higher fidelity models.
I don’t know which engine you’re using but many of them have solutions for generating their own LODs (with varying levels of effectiveness) too.
But if finding them fully finished like this is absolutely necessary then I’m afraid I don’t have any helpful information.
My guy, we live in a world where we are required to have a job to live. Most of those jobs are not essential for society to function. Some of these jobs make people happy and passionate, many others are soul grating and awful. This technology makes some of those enjoyable jobs much less lucrative while the product becomes worse. We simply lose things that bring people joy and for what? Like seriously, I cannot think of something an ai can bring to the table that a human cannot in terms of art.
Why would you want to remove the jobs people enjoy and are passionate about just for the sake of it? Why would you campaign to strictly make people less happy? If it wasn’t for the horrible system we live in I’d be all for this kind of advancement, but it does not make life easier, it does not get us better things, and it almost exclusively makes life worse for millions of people with nothing to show for it.
A couple couch co-op games i like personally are:
There’s also:
You can also still play a lot of old couch co-op games through an emulator or get couch co-op mods for newer games (another commenter mentioned Minecraft). There’s a lot of options.
You know, assuming they have a background with years of coding experience and have the necessary knowledge to decompile a program and the necessary free time to reverse engineer the gibberish the decompiler spits out only for it all to be for nothing before they even finish because a new version was released.
