I believe I posted something similar to this before:
Big tech playlist:
1. enter deregulated space
2. abuse deregulated space
3. lobby for regulation in deregulated space
4. own the regulated space (with regulations they helped write) forever.

So I ran some basic functionality tests with my new 8bitdo adapter.
First step was pairing with my xbox one controller. I didn't know if it would even pair, since I didn't pick the wireless controller for use with this device. It appears to have paired successfully, I just needed to press the pair button on each.
It's been inconsistent whether you need to repair all the time. It seems like maybe once you're paired on each OS or device it's happy? It seems like I had to pair once on linux, windows, and android, but switching between them seems to keep the pairing.
Second step was testing windows joystick support. It looks like it shows up in the game controllers page of control panel and all the appropriate stuff works.
Third step is testing xinput. I tested Cyberdimension Neptunia and it worked just fine, same as if it was the xbox pad working as it normally does.
Fourth step was testing in linux. I fired up linux and started Hotline Miami, and the game worked correctly. I also discovered that steam big screen mode works too.
Fifth test was on a lark, tried connecting to my R35S+ handheld through the otg port, but it had no effect. I didn't expect it to work (so far only wifi has worked), but it was worth a try. So far the R35S+ has only really supported a wifi device on the otg port so it isn't a surprise.
Sixth test was on my Galaxy S10 phone using a usb c to usb a adapter. It paired and I was able to do some limited controls using the gamepad and buttons. One surprise occurred when I opened final fantasy 7 -- when I opened the game, it seemed to recognise the gamepad and let me play using it.
So that's pretty interesting for now. I bought it to use on a Playstation Classic, and it looks like it'll be great for that purpose. Future testing I'll want to try is pairing multiple controllers at once, and whether a playstation or wii controller paired will run using the xinput protocol so you can use it like an xbox controller.
So far, I expect to buy a couple more, seems like a great product at a great price (25 canuckistani kopecs)

I grabbed one of the black ones, I picked it up for my playstation classic once I realized how much cool stuff you can do with that unit now.
Heads and shoulders better than the microsoft dongle so far, even just for the reason it works on stuff other than windows 10/11

My 8bitdo USB wireless adapter just came in. It looks like it'll connect nearly any wireless controller to windows, Linux, or switch. I'll let everyone know how it works out, particularly on Linux because one thing holding me back from Linux gaming is my wireless Xbox adapter which doesn't seem to be supported.
I'm at the drug store and they ask "do you want to donate 2 dollars for women's equity in health?"
Now keep in mind, I live in country with universal healthcare.
If half my income and 14% of every purchase that I make isn't enough to get equity in women's health, I don't think another two bucks at the drug stores quite going to do anything. Maybe it's time to take away the bottle, you're drunk.

It's tough. People who know what theyre doing want an air gap, but:
1. Suits really want access to information about the process right fucking now so you need at least a dmz at your head office, and
2. Municipal water systems tend to be spread out over miles and miles and so to get connectivity for example to a lift station you need all kinds of infrastructure to connect between everything or you use a public internet connection at a fraction of the price.
Municipal water budgets, in spite of how crazy expensive municipal water is, don't tend to be that high and so if they can save some money by doing things the easier way they will.
Of course, that doesn't mean that everyone needs to throw their plcs directly on the public internet. At the very least, there's absolutely no reason why those remote sites can't be connecting back to the main plant network using vpns that are at least several orders of magnitude more secure than the systems they'd be protecting.

If you think about it, you feel richer while you rack up debt because you can get whatever you want, but when you pay back debt and rack up savings you feel poor because you can't get the things you want, but the one activity makes you poorer and the other makes you richer. A surprising number of millionaires drive 10 year old Toyotas.
It's really easy. Just have everyone sell everything and go into debt. Net worth drops, GDP goes to the moon.
GDP is the movement of money, not the wealth of anyone so you can have greater wealth with lower GDP if people end up accumulating weather and not spending it, or a higher GDP and lower wealth if people spend all their wealth (particularly on consumable garbage from china)

One of the chapters in the Graysonian Ethic is "failure is an option". It talks about a time in my life where I thought because I was smart (and everyone told me I was smart so I didn't realize how retarded I actually am) everything would come easy, and people said you couldn't possibly fail in high school because it's designed to push idiots through, so I didnt barely even show up. Surprise surprise I flunked out of school and learned that failure is in fact an option, and it sucks. I spent a huge amount of effort just not having to graduate a year late.
So that's a danger of being called high IQ, you think you're too good for the work and destined to succeed.
Of course, there's also the fact that a PhD may not make as much as someone with a common skilled trade. They may be socially higher on the prestige ladder, but prestige doesn't pay your mortgage.

I've had ark survival evolved in my steam library for 2 years but I don't remember playing it even once. I should give it a shot.
When I point out that the people who are calling everyone Nazis 8 months ago are now calling for the destruction of israel, I get all kinds of people explaining to me how ackshually the Jews are Nazis. Which is just funny, I don't care who you are.

There are civilizations out there that promote cousin marriage, civilizations out there that reject cousin marriage, civilizations out there and that want to even if you avoid cousin marriage keep everyone together as a clan, and civilizations out there that avoid because of marriage and also try to spread families out in a nuclear structure. It should come up absolutely no surprise to anyone that civilizations in a clan structure that promote cousin marriage are going to have extremely high levels of inbreeding. It's the intended purpose.

If you look at a graph, prior to World War 1, the state made up less than 5% of GDP in many countries. People were willing to fight and die for their countries even if they didn't fully understand what they were fighting for. Today, it has recently exceeded 50% in many countries during COVID, and they can't recruit soldiers for love or money. I know the world is more complex than one variable, but I don't think it's unrelated.
One thing that a lot of more recent people in GPL projects really can't stand is the fact that free software means people can do with free software whatever they like, and it's no longer your job to police them (outside of ensuring they comply with the license).
People you like can use the software. People you don't like can use the software. People can use the software to do things you like. People can use the software to do things you don't like. It's no longer your business, and it shouldn't be -- Too many people think they're entitled to stick a finger into your computer, and also that they're entitled to stick a finger into the way you live your life.
