    Everything about it seems usable but only 32gb of storage is a total dealbreaker imo. Android itself will already take half that space and you will struggle not filling up the dozen gb with apps and downloads. Remember, not everything can be moved to an SD card.

    It’s about as good as you can get for a new phone at $100, but in this case I’d just recommend buying something second hand or spending more to get something good.

    The graphical user interface.

    A million times this. Not only did they popularize the ideas, but MacOS’s UI design was so ahead of its time that it’s barely changed since then. It was by far the most polished operating system at the time. Old Apple actually was innovating while the market was kind of stagnant.

    MacOS Leopard screenshot

    This screenshot was in 2007. The competition was Windows Vista. It’s a night and day difference. I had this version of the iMac at the time and was super impressed, even if I did switch back to Windows a couple of years later. Looking back at it, it still looks quite “modern”.

    I’m so excited for it, been following it ever since Garry Newman said he started working in source 2. It looks much more powerful than Gmod ever was. Too bad the way to get into the closed beta is a complete nightmare (you had to enter a raffle every day and have maybe a 1/700 chance of being selected)

    I’ll be the first to buy it as long as they don’t mess up the monetization and turn it into something like Roblox. But I trust Newman, he hates that stuff as much as I do.

    Shoutout to their dumb devlog videos too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2L6xF5POhNU







  • I’m not saying there’s no such thing as artistic nudity, I’m saying that believe it or not Twitch ISN’T a curated art museum and believe it or not people DID use it in bad faith to make pole dancing streams, strip teasing streams, streams where they generate nude AI images, etc.

    Believe it or not, it isn’t a hard problem when people act in good faith. Rather than just immediately noping out because a bunch of assholes

    That’s hilarious, because calling everyone who doesn’t agree with you an asshole isn’t a good faith argument




  • First of all, it was under Twitch’s version of “artistic nudity” which is part of why they rescinded the statement

    And you either allow something or you don’t. Part of the reason this whole fiasco happened is because Twitch wasn’t very clear on what was and wasn’t allowed. If you allow artistic nudity paintings, what’s going to stop people from saying hentai is just artistic nudity? Or AI generated porn, like the article was talking about? It’s a pain in the ass, and Twitch isn’t the place for it despite the discussion anyways…
