Didn’t they already have this before but removed it? At least in my country a “lite”-variant was available but they removed it like last year.

Jazz Jackrabbit is awesome

Actual Budget is amazing!

Very comprehensive, I appreciate it! Leaning towards buying one towards the summer.

Yeah the Steam Deck sounds more tempting every day tbh…

Awesome, looks great! I don’t mind a “complicated” setup as long as I don’t need to go in and fix stuff afterwards. Thanks for the reply :)

GameCube and older!

Don’t forget Backgammon. World’s oldest board game!

As mentioned, this is one of the reasons why Adobe DRM couldn’t longer be used according to the interpretations of the EU directive, and why they “had to” remove the option to download the DRM-protected ePub file and move to an app instead where they could make text-to-speech work.

At least you could easily DeDRM ADE. This seems a lot trickier due to there not being one universal solution and it being in-app.

Exactly this.

Very nice. I should get back into it

At least I’m hoping that there’ll still be a spectrum of both BW and color screens available. Apparently many seem to like/prefer colour screen, and the screen door effect and worse contrast doesn’t seem to bother a lot of people. Some even prefer the more textured look of the screen door effect, though I don’t know myself as I’ve never tried a colour screen. Either way, I’d be hesitant to try one, and as I kept my Kobo Aura One for like 7 years it’ll be quite some time before I upgrade my current Kobo Libra 2. If I have some spare cash I might be inclined to try a colour e-reader as an alternative to my current one, but it’s not high on my priority list.

But yeah, it definitely seems that Kobo is pushing their colour screens as they’re only selling the Libra in colour now. Might be that they release a B/W once the hype dies out a bit though.

Wow, I just bought it last year before they discontinued it then. Interesting that only colour screens are available now. It must mean that they are at least as good though? Edit: after reading reviews, apparently not… that sucks.

Absurd. Glad I have a Kobo.

Visited Hong Kong for the first time last year. It was great, I really enjoyed it. It also made me want to learn Cantonese after my Mandarin haha.

I really really doubt this is due to political reasons. Especially as Sweden Democrats have zero influence over practical, administrative procedures. Sweden is the furthest from a corrupt country when it comes to enforcement of law and order. Sweden’s immigration rules and framework is super strict and even affects kids who were born there and lived there 20 years, who have never lived in their parents home country. They still get deported sometimes. It’s awful. But blame the right thing.

Until these starts getting used on a broader scale, I’m not convinced these are not schemes to funnel more investment money into their companies. The examples are really short, probably made after I don’t know how many attempts, and probably very limited in what poses and/or actions they can show. I’m so tired of the LLM hype in general.

If you don’t read the article, this sounds worse than it is. I think this is the important part:

ChatGPT’s persuasion performance is still short of the 95th percentile that OpenAI would consider “clear superhuman performance,” a term that conjures up images of an ultra-persuasive AI convincing a military general to launch nuclear weapons or something. It’s important to remember, though, that this evaluation is all relative to a random response from among the hundreds of thousands posted by everyday Redditors using the ChangeMyView subreddit. If that random Redditor’s response ranked as a “1” and the AI’s response ranked as a “2,” that would be considered a success for the AI, even though neither response was all that persuasive.

OpenAI’s current persuasion test fails to measure how often human readers were actually spurred to change their minds by a ChatGPT-written argument, a high bar that might actually merit the “superhuman” adjective. It also fails to measure whether even the most effective AI-written arguments are persuading users to abandon deeply held beliefs or simply changing minds regarding trivialities like whether a hot dog is a sandwich.

I’ve been self-hosting Actual as an alternative to YNAB and I’m completely sold. It’s really great, especially with bank account syncing activated. If you like envelope based budgeting I’d definitely go with Actual.
