im tryna get a mini pc and make it a streaming box, but i of course need a remote but the ones that actually look comfortable seem to have microphones in them, and i don’t think that i will take it apart to remove the microphone. So should i just not care since im gonna use it on linux or is there an easier way to remove/break the microphone?
also does the lg remote with the motion controlled cursor thingy work on every tv or does it need to be an lg?
thank guy
Today’s game is Halo MCC. I played some 8v8 PvP with a friend. It felt good to be back playing Halo. Halo to me is that game that just feels right to play. I could come home and turn it on and it’s like this deep seated feeling that everything will be okay, because I’m in my place. I think it’s fascinating that a game can produce that kind of effect.
TF2 is like that too. But Halo seems to have captured my heart more recently, with the benefit of my friends liking it.
Anyways. 8v8. I love this game mode because it’s so large it feels like there’s always something to do. One minute you could be charging the enemy base. Get blasted. Then be fending off an attacker at your own base. It’s so full of action, I love it.
I found out for the first time ever that you can drive the elephant. I assumed there just wasn’t a way too drive it. It’s really cool that you’re able too, because I’ve always loved sort of mobile fortresses in gameplay. So having one in Halo is awesome.
I ended off with a 8v8 Assault game on Rat’s Nest. Not my go to map for assault but it was still great fun. I should really play social games more often to get that full 8v8 action, because I miss out on it when playing with my small group.
Maybe I’ll bring them along even to join me. We will absolutely get our assess handed us, but 90% of the experience is chilling and having a blast with my friends so I’m just happy to have them there with me.
EDIT , footnote : I dug through my memes folder and decided to repost some shit.
Look at me. I am Stamets now.

77 yo guy in Florida sits in front of Flock cameras for hours, holding up a strategically placed protest sign. There are social media claims the man was arrested. But that looks like misinfo. Police talked to him, but journalists found no arrest record, plus,
Police have said that his protest is legal because he is not damaging or tampering with the cameras.
Gunn uses a 12-foot pole from his pool and a broomstick to extend it. He attaches the sign to the end and positions it in front of the camera lens. So anyone accessing footage from that Flock camera will only see the sign “Down with the Flock.” He is careful to choose only Flock camera locations where he won’t obstruct sidewalks, WUSF reported.
A man of the people. And of the pedestrians!
Anyone in or near St Pete should buy this guy free lunches.
From the Verge, Americans are cheering for vigilantes who take down Flock cameras

Naked self-interest disclaimer: I want the best config for the --output option, one that sorts downloads into folders, respects playlist order etc., and never ever displays the string NA, no matter which extractor is used (I mostly use youtube and bandcamp).
edit: here’s my own:
-S res:720
--embed-metadata
--embed-thumbnail
# maybe that'll speed things up
--concurrent-fragments 3
--buffer-size 16k
#
--output "%(channel,playlist_channel,uploader,creator)s/%(playlist)s/%(playlist_index,playlist_autonumber,video_autonumber,autonumber)03d %(display_id,title,id)s (%(duration_string|_)s).%(ext)s"
--sleep-subtitles 1
--sub-langs "en.*,de.*,fi.*"
--embed-subs
Any suggestions on improving –output…
This is a working fish farm in Creative Mode, that houses all 13 types of in-game fish.
Today’s game is Assassin’s Creed 3. I’ve been putting this off for a while. Mainly because all I’m really doing right now is finishing the last 20% of my last save. It’s mostly tedious work, collecting the damn feathers and stuff. But I’m making good progress. The collectibles are almost all done. And thankfully they’re no where near as bad as say, Unity.
While grabbing a view point I approached this lake and noticed this game’s oceans are uncomfortably barren. Like not in a bad way. It looks fine for a body of water in a Xbox 360 Era game. But there’s something unsettling about an open flat field of blue water. I kind of like it to be honest.
Another thing I like, this Waterfall? Had a chest behind it. Love me some hidden chest waterfalls. There’s something so satisfying about checking behind a waterfall to find a chest or like a cave or something. I hope there’s a few more because I’d love to find them.
Anyways, to end things off because there’s only so much I can talk about with collecting collectibles, I wanted to talk about this field. Absolutely horrid for parkour, obviously. But I love fields like this. There’s something about it that feels perfect for the setting that makes it feel like a perfect fit. If only there was a way to make it a good parkour area too
