  • I have an LG OLED from ~2016 or so. Burnt, especially green. I kept it pretty even for wear, until I uh..I was playing Mario 64 ROM hacks, went to sev for a Slurpee and forgot to turn the TV off. Luigi's hat burnt into the screen in his sleeping idle animation and that was that. Took less than half an hour at that point, the panel was already worn out by then for that to happen. Now it's the workout room TV. Yeah it was very pretty, especially useful for 4K CRT Royale retro shaders. Not worth the price unless you got ample cash to burn as I consider these panels disposable.

    I went with LCD again after that. MicroLED 75" with local dimming. It's fine, good enough. You see the dimming zones while web browsing text heavy dark themed websites like this one, but it's not a deal breaker for me.

    Personally I wouldn't buy another until local dimming zones are way way more numerous and smaller on cheaper models. 1000 nits is enough, uncomfortablly bright sometimes now with HDR on. 120hz VRR is great, don't need more. Don't care about 8K. Or I guess if OLED became impossible to burn, or take so long I wouldn't care. At least a decade, without having to mitigate the issue by hiding task bars or using lower brightness etc.

    I don't want to worry about it.

  • If you found your SO others AI porn would it offend you if the their fantasy was nothing like you?

  • I'd only be mad it was AI generated.

  • What's your opinion on manga, manwha, and manhua?

    Jump

  • Same as any other form of media.

    I like some of it, and I REALLY like a few standouts.

  • Echoes back to the Facebook leaker

    There's no bar too low except that which receives continuous ceaseless push back against people who push things like this.

    There isn't enough push back to matter. So the bar lowers.

  • Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women?

    Jump

  • Zero women have tried to make one so far regardless of how many would use a new instance. So it can't be all that in demand.

    I think it naturally would occur if Lemmy grows in size. There's not many people here to begin with.

  • Trump exempts smartphones from reciprocal tariffs after market rout

  • The stupidity is truly breathtaking.

  • There’s No Coming Back From Trump’s Tariff Disaster | America was the world’s economic anchor. Thanks to the president, it may never have that role again.

  • Just watch. I really don't think more CBC money will drown out the enemy who owns the majority of the media we consume. Australia is in the same precarious position under Murdoch.

    Edit: by just watch I mean leading up to the next election after Carney majority wins this one.

    Or the next Australian one.

    Jump

  • This right here why I plan for the very real possibility of the downfall of Canada eventually too, unless Carney foes something to deal with our USA media consumption and get them out of our news media corps.

    There's a lot of bravado and patriotic feelings being projected outwardly right now sure, but Maple MAGA would've been in charge if the USA didn't have their election first.

  • Meta whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams says company targeted teens with advertisements based on their ‘emotional state’

    Jump

  • Well, it's a smaller community. Eventually I'll recognize a lot of you, and I assume the same of me. So I try to keep it real.

    That idiom really dates me, huh.

  • Idealistically I'd say their millennial parents failed them for having that ignorance to begin with, so yes they should know better.

    Realistically, you're not wrong in your rebuttal.

  • I was just venting really, I'm not actually surprised this isn't common knowledge. My bar for humanity already had tunnelled through the Mantel during covid, I think it's in the outer core by now.

    I don't disagree with anything you're saying either.

    You're right she may not even need it. I mean you're obviously paying attention. I'm not worried.

    Have a good life, all three of you or more.

  • I think that's true in general, but not why I was downdooted.

    My guess was the downvotes are people assuming I don't think it's worse to manipulate children vs adults and that I was somehow okay with it apathetically.

    I'm also an asshole occasionally when I see frustrating and disturbing things like this, so my kneejerk response is maybe where I fucked up.

    I really need to get into the habit of letting a post stew in preview for a hot second before I let loose my mental vomit lol because I sometimes get my ass kicked for not communicating what I'm actually trying to say effectively.

    Edit: Lemmy has been pretty kind to me for my clarifying edits when I do this to myself though, so thanks guys. Like this one :)

  • Steam does what Nintendoes and Nintendon't

  • I'm just referring to possibly outdated package repos which may not have kept up with the forks and all the drama, but I could be easily wrong with outdated info. I haven't touched my steam deck in a couple months :p

  • That's how targeted advertising works yes. Not much of a reveal there?

    I guess people need the obvious pointed out, and yeah fair enough.

    Before I get dogpiled: I'm not defending them. I'm saying it's sad people actually think or thought the bar was higher than this. You can tell me Google, Xhitter, whatever did the same and I'd say the same thing. You're the product. You. Are. The. Product.
