5·10 days agoI use LibreELEC on a mini-PC for my home TV. LibreELEC is a Linux distribution that runs Kodi and is pretty good for a media centre straight out of the box. I use a Rii Mini K25 remote (with a dongle) to control it: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B06XHF7DNQ
The downside is I can’t control the TV itself with this, but this can be sorted out with a USB IR receiver (like this: https://amzn.asia/d/0hvzkP93), LIRC (https://lirc.org/) or something similar, *and a universal remote. On my to-do list lol
I have a DHCP reservation for the TV itself and it’s blackholed on my network. The only reason it’s connected at all is so I can monitor what it tries to do.
Edit: Also need a universal remote for the IR solution so it can talk to the PC IR receiver and the TV IR receiver separately.
That’s part of the trust problem though; when I have a $10 note in my pocket, I trust that it will still be $10 when I go to pay for my coffee later that day.
If I get $10 worth of Bitcoin out of an ATM in the morning, I don’t have that same faith in the afternoon. It might be $7, it might be $3, it might be $15,000. That volatility is exactly why I can’t trust it as my standard currency.
That’s a perfectly healthy & grounded view, my friend. :) Apologies if I came across as pushy or like something that “should” be done. It’s awesome that it doesn’t impact your daily life!
Drugs are certainly an adventure and hit everyone differently. Sometimes the adventure is life changing, be it bad or good.
Wishing you the best too! Hope it’s been, and continues to be, an awesome night. Thanks for the wholesome exchange <3
Hey, just in case you haven’t heard this before - maybe book an ADD/ADHD test if some of the indicators resonate with you.
I have a diagnosed friend who also said the same thing about stimulants not having the expected effect. It’s apparently common for drugs like cocaine and MDMA in people with ADHD.

Nah, it’s older than that, it’s 1-2 episodes ago. The first episode of this season was in July, and the Master Debater episode was early August. The last one was about City Popup Store, Labubu, exploitation/manipulation of children via social media, and tariffs
Given the Master Debater episode and the events of this week, the next episode is probably going to be wild!
Windows NT 3.1 was one of the first 32bit OS’s.
It’s the memory address space for the hardware - 32bit can work with 2^32 memory addresses (bytes) while 64bit can work with 2^64 memory addresses. In terms of what that means for your gaming PC, it basically means a 32bit app can work with up to ~4GB of RAM (2^32 = 4,294,967,296) and 64bit can work with up to 18EB (2^64 = 18,446,744,073,709,551,616).
What it means for the survey? No idea, but if I had to guess - it’s either emulation of a 32bit OS or app (like a VM or something)… or a large group of people desperately need to upgrade from Win NT lol
