Please forgive my ignorance. Can’t you shut that shit off? Does shenanigans still apply?

Just a PSA for those who don’t know… no shade against Odysee… I’ve just encountered folks here who don’t know this:

Veritassium and many others on YouTube make their living by the advertising shown on YT. If you’re a premium member, even more money goes to the creator when you watch their content. It’s this very money that allows independent creators to create more / better content!

porkchop ,

Yes to both!

I watch on my television tho

porkchop ,

How so?

  • I enjoy so many cooking shows, tech nerds, and drag queens that post videos that make me happy on YouTube.
  • I watch on my tv primarily
  • I’m so so so happy to support the individual creators who pour their life and so much love into their work, premium pays them more per view than ad-supported views.
  • I share with some friends, and they share their logins with me. Overall, my monthly cost for video services is low.
  • Usenet everything else ;)

Why so negative? Go outside and get some sun, honey

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what’s stopping tech workers still at Google from unionizing?

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted on that. It’s factually accurate. You can easily run unsigned code from anywhere on a Mac, unwalled, no problem. I’ve got a SAB / radarr / sonarr / HASS server running on old hardware with a current OS and… it’s great.

Also isn’t Xcode free? So you can literally “simply“ download, develop, and run

I’m just curious of an example of a game or two you play that’s not available on Mac. There’s some newish tech that allows Macs to virtualize/emulate windows tech including DirectX 12. Not coming for you I’m just curious to test those waters.

(I don’t play computer games, sorry for not knowing)

Looks like CS-2 runs on a Mac fairly well with no extra hardware or virtualized OS installed.

Apple’s game porting toolkit and their M-series hardware is pretty spectacular stuff. Honestly, it doesn’t matter at all that these games are not native as long as they run. And they run seemingly well even on first gen M-series hardware.

I think the point above about being able to run just about anything still stands.

I’ve been curious so here’s a list of tested games that do and don’t work:

Kinda neat ;)

Or help create technology to detect it? Put some money behind that cat-and-mouse game since there’s evidently no way of stopping it.

When the deck emulates switch games, is it also able to emulate going online? Like if I wanted to race someone in Mario kart online…?
