Hardware-wise, vita is nothing special. It's just an arm cortex device, which means Sony will have much easier time making the runtime works on newer arm processor. They don't even need to port the whole os, just the runtime would be enough. If a bunch of volunteer can make vita runtime from scratch on their own free time (and managed to get various Android games running on vita runtime too), there is no reason Sony which have access to the source code can't do it with less time.

No need for extra touchpad in the rear either. Vita TV didn't have it and work fine without it too.

A few years ago, when people think about peer-to-peer internet, they'll think about providing internet to people who live without access any ISP. Fast forward to 2023, peer-to-peer finally saw wide deployment, but it's used for analytics and ads instead :/

They're might be awful to you, but those people at CRT gaming community would literally dive into a dumpster if they spot a Trinitron/Wega there.

Have you tried spoofing your User Agent to Chrome with a user agent switcher extension? The site might actually work in Firefox.

They want to ban encryption? Let me guess, is it for the "safety" of children?

Is this on KDE or Gnome?

Last time I checked, games that use x11 stutters like hell under xwayland. Has this been fixed?

The approximately equal amount of upvotes and downvotes this comment received pretty much sums up the entire gif wars.

They could at least add Vita compatibility and it'll instantly has hundreds of games available. A shame since Vita itself can play PSP and PS1 titles.

Well, Infosys bills their clients by the hours, so of course they want their employees to work long hours. On the other hand, Microsoft basically (almost) own OpenAI, so of course they want people to offload more works to AI.

I have to disagree here. Everyone is not the same and many people are not comfortable watching porns with other people, or even alone by themselves (e.g. abuse victims, etc). My point is there should be an option to avoid watching those scenes, which is increasingly not the case here because new shows includes them as if there is a "has borderline porn sex scenes" checkbox that must be ticked off in Netflix production department before new shows got greenlighted. Trying to not watching shows with those scenes means not watching most recently produced shows at all.

Action scenes and sex scenes are just not comparable. Watching action scenes usually don't make people want to punch other people. On the other hand, watching porns makes either make people horny or uncomfortable depending on their situation. Also, you can easily avoid action scenes by not watching action shows. On the other hand, sex scenes has creep into all genres these days. Watching an alien movies? Boom, sudden sex scenes. Watching a docudrama? Boom, also sudden sex scenes. I'm not complaining if it weren't for filtering out shows with sex tags basically filter out most shows made in recent years.

IIRC AdGuard iOS content filter works on safari a while ago to block youtube ads, but that was before youtube began its war against adblockers. Haven't tested it again yet.

Trade secrets aren't patented because when you patent something, it'll immediately become public knowledge (not secret anymore) in exchange for exclusive right (no one can use it without your permission) until the patent expires. Coca cola recipe and KFC's secret spices are examples of trade secrets. If they're patented, people would've been able to create exact copies by now.
