This is why I still use 768p as my preferred resolution, despite having displays that can go much higher. I hate that all TVs now are trying to go as big as possible, when it’s just artificially inflating the price for no real benefit. I also hate that modern displays aren’t as dynamic as what CRTs were. CRTs can handle pretty much any resolution you throw at them but modern TVs and monitors freak out if you don’t use an exact resolution, causing them to either have input lag because the display has to upscale the image or a potential performance hit if the display forces the connected device to handle the upscaling.

I would say that I’m glad that I don’t live in Texas but the state I live in has also been slowly following this Nazi rhetoric as well, so it’s only a matter of time before we’re effected as well.

Something that I’ve been confused about ever since people have been talking about this, is that there didn’t seem to be a change of views from mobile devices. Like, I know that adblockers are less common on mobile devices because most people either don’t know they are available or aren’t using browsers that have/support (good) adblockers. But, was there really no noticeable change at all?

I guess that’s cool but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a website that actually hosted MKVs. What are some websites that have MKVs?

I expected nothing less from them. They did pretty much the same exact thing when Japan tried confronting them after they started blocking Japanese retailers from trading internationally. I can’t find the article anymore but IIRC, Japan’s Prime Minister tried having an in person interview with them about it but it was cut short because he stormed out of the room after Visa tried denying everything. I don’t think that the payment processors will ever take responsibility for their actions.

How is Windows 11 SE considered a competitor to Chrome OS? I haven’t heard of Windows 11 SE before just now and, from what I’ve read, it seems like it’s intended for a completely different purpose. It just looks like a stripped down version of Windows 11 that can’t run most applications and is intended for educational use, meanwhile Chrome OS wasn’t made for a specific purpose and is designed for general use.

I once saw someone running Doom on a pregnancy tester, so I’d imagine that it could run Linux as well.
