TSMC already has a functioning US fab

More or less. It's the CHIPS act

Holy shit, they read Snowcrash and The Diamond Age and took the absolute wrong conclusions from them

A competent, fun-to-play game that does nothing new doesn't suck IMO, thus the distinction.

Saying anything that doesn't do something new or exciting sucks is a pretty bad take IMO.

Like you wouldn't say a new horror movie sucks just because it's about a serial killer holding a family captive in their house and there's like 50 movies with that premise already, y'know? Execution counts and Valve is still amazing at execution, is my main point. They would absolutely make a fun game that feels intuitive to play with great level design. It just might not necessarily be anything special in terms of mechanics. Mechanically I haven't seen much new from them since maybe Portal 2.

It won't suck because Valve playtests the hell out of their games, but it might be bland/old fashioned feeling. The biggest issue with Valve is that they've really lost their edge. They used to be this young scrappy company that would innovate as easily as breathe, but over time they've begun to become so senior-heavy that now they just foster promising talents more than actually produce games.

Dying is probably worse than being born, but both kinda suck

No, they want you to either be an accountant or pay Turbo Tax. No free tax filing

Yeah, over at !nottheonion@lemmy.world

Ladybird and Servo are both in Alpha, but worth keeping an eye on.

Weird, I heard it was piss

That's a lot of psychic damage in one comment

If you're on mobile, the app Streamyfin for Android and iOS is fantastic. Handles downloads, transcoding, great UI, and it even integrates with additional third-party tools that enhance it further, like Jellyseer.

You'll want to delete it from the CLI, then. Try the unlink command

Delete one

My Lemmy instance, sdf.org, is a computer club founded in the 1980s

As a lefty, no I wouldn't. If our government is a dictatorship, then this would hardly be an example of seizing the means of production, just a change of hands from one unelected dictator to another.

Still, funny mental image.

Moonlight works great on Android. I'd recommend a cheap AndroidTV streaming box that has an ethernet port, like the onn brand Walmart streaming box or the latest Google streaming box. Anything like that will work great. You just need an ethernet connection for low latency and a box that has Bluetooth (effectively all of them) and/or USB for controller, mouse and keyboard connections.

This is cool, but historically we've been able to microwave frozen mice and hamsters back to life for decades. Still can't do it with humans, though. You'd need to heat them evenly enough and quickly enough, which grows exponentially more difficult as you scale up in volume.

Unfortunately they've become immune to irony

I quite agree, but it doesn't reduce the irony even an iota.

For some background, I grew up in a rural farming community filled to the brim with highly religious conservatives who all claimed to be oppressed
