In 10 days on January 1st, the Texas Law [SB2420] that requires an ID to download ANY apps onto your phone using the App/Play Stores, goes into effect.How do we bypass this, is it just over, should we all just switch to dumbPhones soon???...I know that theres F-Droid, and you can use the Aurora Store to bypass this (maybe), but some apps refuse to work unless you download them from the Play Store now, and I heard that sideloading will be disabled in 1-2 years, so it seems like its over.>tl;drOnce this law goes into effect, users located in Texas who download an app on the App/Play Stores, will be required to confirm whether they are 18 years or older, by showing their ID.
>>107614681WTF?
>>107614681Looks like they're interfering with interstate commerce. Nobody is required to have an ID, so making it a prerequisite to doing business is fundamentally flawed.
>>107614681burgoids just love shooting themselves in the foot to own the lib they hallucinated huh
Reminder that California is doing the same thing. A law, AB1043, passed with unanimous approval that if you host your software on any website or app store, you have to write the software such that it relays the user's age back to you every time they launch your software. And you have to log it EVERY SINGLE TIME. It doesn't actually require ID, but that's because the OS vendor is required to store that information in a non-user accessible location and of course they have to get your age any time you run anything on your computer.
>government IDs for every app downloadSB2420 requires age check only for new app store accounts, not every download, retard. Existing accounts are fine. Sideloading is not mentioned at all in it either. Even with all of that, it's already being fought in court since it likely violates the 1st amendment.

Can somebody in Animebytes check to see if they have a complete Blu ray rip for Mobile Fighter G Gundam, including the extras, and if so if it's the JP or ENG BD set or both?Screenshotting the releases and their descriptions for me would be extra niceI'd check myself but my account was suspended for inactivity and I don't have time to wait 18 hours in the IRC to get it restored right now

What do they have people need to share around online other then maybe reuploads of streams, and why would that require the secrecy of a PT?
>>107615569Nobody is going to do that.

Dumb people are going to be dumb.I have an acquaintance who I've gotten into two AI arguments with. She's a firm anti AI person, despite never having used it. She tried to tell me how AI works, even though I've literally made machine learning programs before, and also tried to tell me that it's "SLAVE LABOR!" But in the same breath she also says "AI is just a word guesser."I kept trying to calmly explain to her how AI actually works, but she called me a "techno machine God worshipper". I left after that.Dumb people are going to be dumb.It's really too bad everyone has an equal voice on the internet. It gives these dumbasses way too much weight.
>>107615202>The "word guesser" part is better understood as the keyboard the AI has to interact with us. It is entirely optional; it does not need this to comprehend information. Just think of it like this: if you had a "neural link" to your computer, you could disconnect the keyboard and mouse and still use it.Current AI (mostly LLMs) does not "think" unless prompted, so this is completely wrong.

What's the best PC controller on the market right now? My wired Xbox controller from 2015 works fine but I wanna go wireless
>>107613228>no gyroWorthless.
>>107613432>removable batteriesUsecase?
>>107613160Wired is always better. I have a razer wolverine that has worked well for years. I do have an 8bitdo snes controller that I use for my ipad but I don't see a need to use it on my pc.
Gamesir Cyclone 2's often $25-40 and is a no-brainer in that price range.8Bitdo Ultimate 2 Wireless is also good if you're a dinput+steam input enjoyer and want extra shoulder buttons.Bigbig Won Rainbow 3 has four extra buttons and a Dualsense Edge input mode that also lets you map them all freely with Steam or DS4Windows.For non-power users, the newer budget (<$30) releases from Gamesir, 8Bitdo, Bigbig Won, and Gulikit are all good too. Third party symmetrical layout is still cursed unless you just want something budget (Tegenaria Lite), best off waiting till next year for the Steam Controller 2 and Gulikit TT Pro.

OkayI have an ancient toaster that's 15 years old now. I can do some web browsing but stuff like YouTube struggles. I can watch 480p on YouTube. Anyway,someone please tell me what kind of videos I should download for watching movies.1080p anything is no go most of the time. I can handle some 720p videos if they are like divx. Divx movies play well for me. Other than divx, what else? A lot of mkv videos make my computer shit itself and struggle to not crash. Nevermind watching it
>>107614021any media player is much faster than using bloated and slow web browsers for playing videos especially on old hardware where it takes very long time just to load the webpage

>>107614071doesn't fix the core issue and isn't required on such hardware.if he's struggling with 480p playback on a browser you aren't getting 720p60 and beyond by just switching to a media player, and he'd still be using his whole cpu to do that while his perfectly fine h264 hardware decoder (which can do 1080p60 no problem) is sitting idle, very half assed pointless workaround.what a retarded excuse to shill your shitware, kys.
>>107614150>while his perfectly fine h264 hardware decoder (which can do 1080p60 no problem) is sitting idlemedia players do hardware decode better than web browsersand youtube on web browser defaults to av1 which is the reason why it struggles with 480p software decodingyou seem like a low iq brainlet who can't even formulate a consistent argument and having your first half of your post conflicting with the second half
>>107614492>media players do hardware decode better than web browsersNo, you need to enable hardware acceleration and https://github.com/erkserkserks/h264ify (literally what mpv and trannytube does)mpv streaming support is shit, it's only good for local playback. ikatroon, you know this shit too, but won't mention it because it's another reason to NOT use your closed source botnet discord trannyware.

I was trying some cinematic close-ups of thick women feeding the viewer the other day, even calling them buxom resulted in the boobs being half-hidden in NBP... Image-1.5 is actually lewder, but it's worse at handling certain poses.>>107615589>High-angle shot, looking down at a stunning 25-year-old Sicilian woman with a voluptuously zaftig, thick, and curvy silhouette. She is a cat-girl with delicate, furry black cat ears and a long, matching feline tail. She has long, straight jet-black hair with a sharp, blunt-cut fringe (bangs) framing her face. Her eyes are a piercing, deep sapphire blue, looking upward toward the viewer with a gentle, soft smile. She is wearing a festive Santa-inspired red velvet bodysuit with plush white faux-fur trim and a matching belt. A heavy burlap sack overflowing with colorful gifts is slung over her back. Art style is a masterpiece by Haruhiko Mikimoto: delicate pencil and fine ink line work, ethereal watercolor washes with soft gradients, luminous skin tones, and a nostalgic 1980s/90s high-end anime aesthetic. Soft, dreamy lighting, highly detailed eyes, elegant and painterly texture.
