Reply to comment by MahLilThrowaway in TIL the original 1881 "Pinocchio" was a dark story that included the puppet's execution by hanging for his bad behavior (which included murdering Jiminy Cricket) by foodtower
In the very first version, yes. But shortly after new chapters changes the story. He was now hung by some bandits, but he’s a living wooden doll, he doesn’t exactly need to breathe. So he just hangs around for awhile, then escapes. In the end he finds Geppeto after a long journey, Pinocchio finally learns to stop being such an ungrateful little prick, and they live happily as father and son.

Yeah it uses the Nvidia solution that’s being discontinued. But maybe the moonlight devs will be able to keep it supported somehow.

You know, I was thinking about Moonlight on Apple tv for the higher resolution. I guess that’s no longer a consideration

Would you say it was an upgrade? I don’t have any specific complaints with the steam link hardware. My wired connection works well with barely noticeable lag and not too bothered by it being capped at 1080

I hear the Apple TV 4K is solid

And the Steam Link hardware is no longer being produced. I have one, it’s great, but it’s not like valve is releasing better versions

I watched the trailer and was immediately annoyed by 8 gorgeous diverse teens in a cabin.

Reply to comment by LemonPepperSniper in TIL that when Weird Al wrote I Want A New Duck in 1985, he went to the library and researched ducks for a week by ElderCunningham
Study for a week probably really means he went in an hour here or there a couple times that week and read over a few books. The dude didn’t spend 40 hours in the library like it was his job
