Thanks Ukraine, for putting them to good use.

Thanks for the info. I got it running really easily, I thought it would be harder.

I have been meaning to play The Dig for ages, so I'm glad I finally have it on a portable platform.

Oh, I hadn't considered running DOS games, I would love to play The Dig on there. Does it suspend well?

Free games? I only run custom firmware so that I can play my backups. Same for everyone, right?

Child endangerment is explicitly a crime.

True. For me it depends on how optimistic I'm feeling that day.

I would assume he is being funny.

What happened?

Post comments on Lemmy!

Just kidding.

Shoplifting is a victimless crime. Like punching someone in the dark.

Too real.

It might be funny if it didn't feel so relentless and mean spirited.

So glad the nationalistic Britain hate came over from Reddit.

Oversimplifying it was my point.

In every single art discipline there are ways of creating with very little effort. You can point an iPhone at your nephew and create a photo, but you can also spend weeks stalking an animal for the perfect photo, or a natural phenomenon that rarely occurs. You can arrange the composition of a portrait, spending hours getting the lighting right. That's ignoring the post-processing that can consume a crazy amount of time.

People think that because the technical side of photography is more accessible than in the past, there's very little to the art.

But consider a random stranger's phone. What are the odds that there's a single photo on there that you would enjoy looking at, let alone having a print on your wall? Probably very low.

But then compare that to a professional's portfolio. There's going to be a huge difference, because a professional has the eye for a good photo. And people will happily dismiss their work because it only took 1/64th of a second to capture, and they'll ignore the insane amounts of work that went into honing their ability.

As I said, every single discipline has low-effort works. The very idea that photography is by it's nature so low-effort that it's not worth copyrighting is incredibly short sighted.

That's like saying "All you do is push 'Render' and 'Toy Story' comes out."

I think it was the instance referenced in the RIF goodbye message. That's what got me here, anyway.

I use the Pixel 7 Pro

I love it. The cameras are unparalleled, the software is excellent, and the experience is pure. Battery life isn't nearly as bad as people say, but it could be better.

Last few phones: iPhone 5c, Galaxy S5, Nexus 6P, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 5, Pixel 6 Pro

Worst was the 6P, because it bricked itself (though I got a few hundred dollars back in the class action lawsuit), but it was excellent aside from that. iPhone got a dead pixel within a month, but they replaced it, Galaxy was sturdy but software was awful. Best was Pixel 2 XL, I still use it as a backup sometimes.

I get a new phone every year if the trade-in deals are good.

I have the Pixel Watch and Pixel Buds. I mainly use the Sony XMs though for headphones.

I have a 14" MacBook Pro M1 Pro. Got it for the insane battery life, but I'm mostly a Windows/Linux user still.I have an iPad, it isn't bad, but I miss the affordable Android tablets of old (Nexus 7 rocked). I don't have any desire to move to iOS.
