    COVID-19 / Coronavirus Pandemic

    I just love being a member of a forum that is so stuffed full of qualified doctors, virologists, political scientists and sociologists. Not to mention lawyers.

    Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Please stay safe, y'all

    Given that it took more than four years before anyone took any notice of the side-effects of Thalidomide, I am somewhat sceptical of any long-term side effects of any new vaccine - particularly one that will be rushed out as fast as these will be.

    Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Please stay safe, y'all

    We need to start taxing people who diet, because they're not buying cakes like the rest of the population and thus depriving the bakers of their income.

    Where are we now?

    I would. but... y'know. It's Linux. That thing's fine for handhelds and raspberry pi's but it's just not ready for desktop work yet, you know?

    Does the Pyra have something similar to IME (Intel Management Engine)?

    IME is a consequence of creating CPUs for the American market I'm afraid. It's almost certain that AMD also has backdoors for the NSA/CIA the same way that Intel does, but generally chip manufacturers are not allowed to disclose that they have inserted them. This would also highly likely include...

    Can I just interject here: 69 pages. Nice.

    GPD WIN MAX ANNOUNCED

    I might be having one of these regardless tbh. My Pocket 1 is dead but was woefully underpowered right when I needed it so... Edit: Anyone else thinks Linus is looking rough as arseholes these days?

    Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Please stay safe, y'all

    I have not yet seen anyone wearing a mask here. And yes, we have the lowest infection rate in the UK here, for some reason.

    GPD WIN MAX ANNOUNCED

    That screen resolution looks a lot more sane than trying to drive the 1920x1200 of the GPD Pocket 1 with an Intel GPU. Hope it runs well.

    Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Please stay safe, y'all

    Probably because of the fear of reprisals. He's already being hailed on social media as an asshole and people are directing serious amounts of bile towards him.

    Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Please stay safe, y'all

    Yeah, he's a gonner. Interestingly, this popped up on my feed: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/somethings-right-here-folks-look-usa-2009-h1n1-virus-compared-cavolo And there are some interesting points in there regarding the hysteria as compared to the (currently) much more deadly H1N1 outbreak...

    Nintendo Switch

    Mt biggest gripe is not being able to dump my carts to a huge uSD card so I don't have to carry them around. As soon as this thing has flashcarts in league with the old NDS carts, I'm straight in for that very reason. As it is, I'm buying more online but I keep getting boxed games as gifts.

    Release Stunt Car Remake

    Played in Win10. Hit F9 to increase the frame rate - at what I assume is 60fps the game is unplayably fast. Dropping the framerate makes the game slower, but obviously the framrate is crap :) Any chance of a fix for this?

    That would be a shame, this place wouldn't be the same without our Klumpy.

    Vegetarian Awareness Month (October)

    I guess that's what you get from a bunch of tech nerds :) "we might be able to start growing plants there" indeed - and what happens to the flora and fauna that have evolved to live in a desert if the desert simply... isn't? But no, let's discuss instead how to get that power to Europe instead...

    Vegetarian Awareness Month (October)

    You can add in, of course, that the human race as a whole is pretty stupid. As the old adage goes, imagine how dumb the average person is, and then realise that half the population of earth is even dumber than that. I was chatting on social media a while back, and someone said that covering...

    GPD Pocket

    Yeah, Gearbest didn't reply and GPD don't handle repairs.

    Vegetarian Awareness Month (October)

    You also need to make sure you get your veggies locally grown too - so that means pretty much seasonal only. Anything that requires shipping is, in the current climate (ha! DYSWIDT?) almost as harmful as mass meat farming and production and arguably so. Oh, and chocolate should also be avoided...

    Vegetarian Awareness Month (October)

    The main problem with diet is that the development of our habits has overtaken our biological evolutionary rate. We're evolved to eat both meat and veg - we have incisors at the front of our mouths specifically for tearing flesh, we have molars at the back for grinding plant material. We need...
