I think it's far more destructive to allow a child to play a sport that basically guarantees that they'll end up with massive brain damage.

If cars, alcohol or weed caused 75%+ of the people who used them to have massive brain damage then it'd be unreasonable to allow people to use those too.

And that's good. We still had UI/UX standards in 1999.

Interestingly it refuses to install on Windows 11 ARM. Portable version works fine though.

A nuclear weapon is a tool in a tool box. And nobody's used it since WWII for a good reason.

Why would they need AI to do any of those things? Wrong statements should be caught by editors and fact-checkers.

It more sounds like you're wanting people to shoehorn in AI where it doesn't belong.

Your decade old Kobo is going to be a better reader than this. Kobo Nickle or Koreader will render epub a ton better and faster. Do this if you want the smaller size. It's not an upgrade in anyway.

It’s still nowhere near as good as Poweramp but I’ve found Jewelcase to be better than Doppler.

Not nearly as extraordinary as yours.

Don’t buy the weapons maker’s N64. Buy Analogue’s or a real N64 if you want to play your cartridges.

Em dashes are hardly ever used in modern literature. Sure, it's a tell that people aren't reading late 18th century to early 20th century literature, but that's not the same as not being big readers.

Viwoods AI Paper mini and Supernote Nomad if you want 8” Android. They’re primarily focused on the writing experience but they will run most Android apps and Koreader.

The downsides are that they are expensive and the Nomad does not have a front light.

It really isn't more complicated. These are mostly the excuses that 19th century Western European scholars used to deny the Eastern Romans their Romanness, because they wanted to place themselves as the inheritors of Rome.

First, The Roman Empire was always bilingual. Greek always held sway over the eastern half and Latin over the western half. Once the west is gone, of course you'll switch to primarily using the language that most use. The Irish didn't stop being Irish because they primarily speak English now, for example.

Second, the only states that refused to recognize the Eastern Roman Empire as the Roman Empire were the states that were descended from the German invaders and that was because they wanted to claim the Roman mantle for themselves. All of Islam called the East Romans, Rum. As did all of the rest of the world when they had contact with them.

Third, the switch to Christianity had already happened by the time of the split in 395.

Fourth, Rome hadn't been the seat of power for many Emperors since before the Third Century Crisis.

Fifth, states lose and gain territory all the time.

Read The New Roman Empire by Anthony Kaldellis. If you want to read more about this.

Is the United States become a different entity when it moved its capital between Philadelphia and Washington DC?

That was moved in NT 4 actually.

Wake me when any TV streamer besides the Apple TV 4K can stream a high bitrate 4k HDR video from a Plex server because I sure haven’t found anything.
