I wasn't recommending it for that?
I said that it wouldn't be good for streaming apps, like Netflix, and the previous comment was asking about Plex specifically.
Not for the shield, but there's a Chinese device, Ugoos am6b+, that you can install coreelec on.
Coreelec is a linux os designed to run kodi, add a plex add on and it can play almost anything.
Any dolby vision profile, including the one that can usually only be played on bluray players. Any audio including TrueHD, dolby atmos, and DTS.
Sucks for streaming apps sadly, so you'd have to get another device like Apple TV or something.
It could be, but making a game about alternate time lines with Paul atreides is not the setting I would choose for a dune MMO. It sounds like it would be a fantastic single player game setting.
Personally I like the idea of MMOs but have yet to find one I actually like.
Sounds like something a nazi would say.
And if they wanted their own little naziverse on the fediverse nobody could stop them, but compared to every other social media platform most of lemmy deplatformed and banned nazis, while they get privileged status on Facebook or Twitter.
Oh they tried, they got banned and any instance they spun up got defederated.
Turns out they don't like just each other very much. And those instances did not grow on their own.
This would be so much more interesting if it wasn't an MMO.
I actually decided to cancel my ChatGPT subscription since it started to be so useless, for code generation, and writing help.
I'm so far pretty happy with Claude, but I've only used it Friday.
Like one of the things that it would do is give me wrong code, I'd fix it, give it back the corrected code to add something else, and it would remove the corrections and other things it added earlier!
I think at that point I'd mail a certified letter and cancel whatever card it's on.
That probably wouldn't work but one can dream.
It's still free, just under a different plan named lite https://www.realvnc.com/en/connect/plan/lite/
Yeah it's annoying and shitty, but it's not so bad.
It's mostly an issue in rural and suburban areas. The grocery store closest to me feels like it's price gouging (Safeway) , and I try and go to other grocery stores for bigger trips like Wegmans or H-Mart.
Meat is especially bad, like $10/lb for ground chicken bad. Meanwhile at H-Mart it's $3/lb.
Supermarkets should have cheaper prices, but now that they have formed a monopoly of just a few companies they are not.
Small shops keep supermarkets competitive, without them they become monopolistic.
Spoilers, smartphones. Smartphones are what happened in 2012.
