It’s FPGA and plays ROMs so I think it’s just more financially prudent to get a MisterFPGA - a much more versatile system that’s about as accurate. I’m rather confused about most of those single platform FPGA systems like new Commodore or Analogue 64 - do you really want to swap physical media? I’d understand getting this for aesthetics but at this price point? Hard sell for sure.

Couch Potato is pretty much dead, Radarr is the way to go.

Back in the day Sabnzbd was considered slow and inefficient so Nzbget was usually recommended. These days both are pretty much indistinguishable performance-wise and Sabnzbd seems to get more active development.

Current restrictive laws push archival into the grey zone where it’s hard to effectively enforce privacy protections.
According to that latest Princeton study on phenotypes of autism - approximately 37% of autistic population ;)
misk@piefed.socialto Autism@lemmy.world•I'm an undiagnosed, presumably autistic person. Pretending to be one makes me feel comfy womfy.English5·27 days agoYes, this joint and movement is part of Beighton Score which is a measure of hypermobility and a sign of a connective tissue disorder. I won’t go as far as saying that if you’re hypermobile then you’re autistic but I know plenty of autistic people and almost all are hypermobile. When I was researching a hereditary condition that could run in my family (turned out to be correct) I spoke to some I haven’t been in contact for a long time and got surprised reactions like how did I know they could bend like rubber or how did I know grandma could too.

Pretending to be one makes me feel comfy womfy.English12·27 days agoRead as much as you can on autism, preferably written from autistic and neurotypical perspectives. There are things about autism that seem to be common knowledge among autistic people that NTs and science seem to be completely oblivious about. There are also things that autistic people attribute to autism but are result of usual comorbidities.
When thinking about what is normal it is common to be thrown off by what your family is like. Autism is highly heritable and it’s very likely that if you’re autistic then at least one of your parents autistic is too even if they don’t know it.
If you’re after something objectively verifiable on your own then look into joint hypermobility - if you can dislocate some of your joints at will then it’s surprisingly likely that you’re some form of neurodivergent. My mind was blown by some of the recent studies in that area. I wasn’t that angry about not being diagnosed earlier when it comes to how my mind works because I found ways to cope. I was angry because it turns out that there’s a whole slew of physical conditions that seem to be specific to autism that doctors aren’t aware of usually and will never consider because of their own misconceptions about autism.
Once you understand how autism works you’ll know. By the time I got formally diagnosed I didn’t have any doubt about it myself even though I would laugh at the idea couple of months before.
Web browsers are the most resource intensive apps these days. Dedicated app doesn’t have to run JavaScript or ask for UI elements over network so it’s better for both battery and bandwidth.
Reddit is astroturfed to hell, I prefer my posts to come from humans rather than companies trying to game system for financial benefit.
