You can use a USB hub dongle which passes through power via USB C with a Google TV (4K) device. That's what I do for mine to connect it to the rest of my GbE VLAN via wired ethernet connection and avoid Wi-Fi packet drops when streaming or casting 4K HDR content. A dongle is also handy to connect any USB web cam so I can use the TV for large family video calls with the grandparents in the living room, via Android apps like Google Meet or Zoom.

Here is the one I use that also has a combo headphone jack with GbE Ethernet and passthrough charging, so also nice for Moonlight gaming on modern android 120Hz HDR tablets where I don't want to use low bitrate HFP Bluetooth for discord calls while also listening to game audio and music. Note, when used with the Google TV, I don't use the USB Hub's HDMI, opting for the Google TV's international cord to maintain Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) functionality.

In your opinion, what's a good example of a well written Solarpunk story? How about another one that is at least well known in pop culture?

I'd say "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" could be one good example. Perhaps a little more post-apocalyptic, but it's got all the markings of positive change, societal sustainability, and environmentalism, along with futuristic sci-fi world building. Both the anime and manga are fantastic, but I guess not too prominent in Western pop culture.

Are there graphic artists who can't digitally draw using this kind of prompting to create online comics or manga yet? This would be really cool for writers who can only storyboard, but are not yet skilled enough to draw and paint every panel by hand at the rate they can write. From this Lemmy community, portraits and still poses seem plausible to green screen with this technique, but I imagine more dynamic motion or action scenes would be harder to choreograph with splicing together multiple characters and perspectives.

How do the floors in the upper structure handle the sloping incline of the geometric shape? Is there just a lot of closed off volumetric slivers between the planes of the floor and ceiling and shell, or is there only one or two floors, with the upper floor having a larger rising canopy?

The publisher is WebToon. Looks the the first three chapters can be read online via a web browser without an account from the link. But the rest of the series now seems to require an account, but are still free with adds or one chapter a day. You may find a boot leg mirror on your average online manga scaner website.

Before or after becoming a zombie?
Because here's a good story on the former:

Zombie Wife | WEBTOON In a remote cabin in the woods, a man named Milton lives a quiet life with his wife, Shauna. Everything is what he could have dreamed for!... except for the zombification of his better half. But despite this, Milton does not give up the future he dreamed of. Is he the most devoted husband ever or is he just plain crazy? https://www.webtoons.com/en/thriller/zombie-wife/list?title_no=5972

Got a link to the ticket about some modules? I think that must have been inconsistent behavior I've been observing when attempting to stage them from my super project.

Got to have watchtowers for those pesky rock climbing mongolian assassins. A nice smooth brick surface slows them down and slips them a bit like heavy beatles clamoring up glass. /s

Can you listen to music or watch a movie while on a discord call using the hands-free microphone in your Bluetooth headset? Full duplex audio still halves the nominal bitrate for both the microphone and media playback audio; same as when the HSP/HFP protocols we're first showcased in 1999. It's ridiculous, especially now that very few flagship devices still include a headset jack.

You should cross post this c/science_memes ! Instead of cooking the average paper for call deadline, it's nice to publish something funny every once in a while.

Just like modern cars... I wish there was some kind legislation that would limit phone-home telemetry to emergency service telecommunication frequencies, and be opt-in only. That way any OEM operating under commercial cellular frequencies would thus be unlicensed, and subject to FCC violations and import bans. Like what OnStar was originally pitched as; only auto dialing to 911, and 911 only, if you were unresponsive after airbags deployed. OEM couldn't use the telecommunication frequencies for anything other than networking with emergency service endpoints on the same VLAN.

Anything recorded by the vehicle would be required to stay on the vehicle due privacy regulations, like the black box recorder for warranted forensic investigations. OTA updates could also be distributed offline for users to download and flash via USB, like any motherboard bios, so transactions would be write only.

I used to watch a lot of anime, but after I got through all the classics up to the late 2000's, more modern titles never held my attention quite as well, so I shifted to manga for more interesting story lines with great art work. But delicious in dungeon has been so good that I find myself rewatching season 1 and anticipation for the next, rather than risking my suspense by reading the source material instead.

 
 

Reminded me of this meme from a while back:
