You may be able to root the LG TV and use https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos, which supports ad blocking and sponsorblock. Or you could install it with developer mode, but developer mode has a limited session time.

I don’t see why you couldn’t. Just connect multiple controllers and configure accordingly.

In my experience using an older android phone for self-hosting, the downside was a lack of ports and I/O. Being stuck with a single USB 2 interface and wifi was less than ideal for my use case.

I ran a Minecraft server on termux and (IIRC) AnLinux once. It worked surprisingly well.

If I am remembering correctly, Australia also has laws that allow the government to force private companies to build backdoors. I think it was the Ass Access Act.

The best part is that pirates don’t need to sit through the bullshit anti piracy messages

1 grain is equal to 64.79891 milligrams. This would be a lethal dose of fentanyl.

Most public schools wouldn’t have the budget to allocate a staff member to create and maintain such a distro. It would also take quite some time to flash to all of the devices.

The management tools built into chromeOS are also mature and very compelling to schools. Most schools don’t see the value of reinventing the wheel when a mostly ok solution that takes no extra effort is already available.

Control pushed me to turn on the one hit kill cheat. After hitting a certain point in the game, it seemed as though enemies would spawn more frequently in areas already visited. I noticed it most in the research sector. Some of the random encounters of hiss dragged on far too long to be fun.

With a map that is easy to get lost in and (side) missions which require you to visit or find several locations all around the map, the random encounters got quite tedious. The random encounters seemed to become less frequent again close to the end of the base game.

Probably not. Although I can’t buy a Steam Deck in my country, Linux is my daily driver on my gaming PC. In my experience, buying games on steam is genuinely much much easier than piracy on Linux. Even just trying to run Windows games purchased elsewhere (such as GOG) to run in wine is much more difficult than steam. There are no other game stores that are anywhere near as good on Linux.

I… think that is a human

I don’t think it is blocked, just down at the moment.
