So you're telling me I COULDN’T make a film by just buying 100 iphones?

@gruber is mister 000000 PIN Kanye still on the loose?

In nearby to China you have to use this app just for booking a hotel, or a taxi, or shit. Elon thinks his $44billion purchase of Twitter will be the same for white people. Fat chance.

This is getting sporty.

My M4Pro Macintosh can keep up, but it’s a task with the emotes!

@rosyna should I do it? I do have a spare iPhone

@octothorpe true … the machines should be willing to deal with 720

@octothorpe eh maybe I’ll try it again later on

@octothorpe Hmm that is a good question.

I believe all the connections are DVI-D single channel.

@octothorpe I assume it's a 16:10 resolution rather than 16:9, although that's not quite right either …

@octothorpe I have no idea why it doesn't work, but that the Nintendo isn't happy with the display, which is 1680x1050

Aaaaaalmost 1080p …

@octothorpe You and I are alike. Years ago I bought a switch № 1 with some money from my grandfather's estate.

I didn't play it much. I am now trying to adapt it to an old Apple DVI display … and not succeeding … (possibly a mismatch of resolution)

@octothorpe It seems a lot of people were upset about the re-design (I don't recall why)

@octothorpe my friend Ilias was very against the DonkeyKong redesign until he got the new game and now he's for it! He is on twitch at "airstreamers”

I have not yet seen a Switch2 in person.

We know for sure who's gonna be the forty … ninth? president …

@octothorpe haha, shows what I know, huh!

All these assertions are true, but it confirms the POTUS is an idiot

Incarcerated people “cherish the ability to keep a favorite letter or a child's drawing in their pocket to pull out when they're having a bad day," EFF’s Cara Gagliano told Law360. "That's not possible with San Mateo's digitized mail policy."

Quite a lot of “performance core” activity considering I'm mainly doing a lot of windowing across 2 large screens …

All these confetti effects on a large web browser window are easy for a Modern 2024 M4 Mac mini to deal with. On my 2nd hand 2014 Mac mini, it is ruinous. On my 2018 Mac mini it's probably okay [that machine is in stasis for a while].

Why is it so hard on the computer? Or since it is, why is it allowed at all? Surely other people have bad computers!
