Finally some good news!

Income taxes go back into services that help society. How do you expect a government to fund any of the infrastructure and services that you take for granted around you without it?

The complete removal of bloat.

That one really pisses me off. It’s such a good idea and would have been applicable to almost every game.

I’m feeling a mixed reception obviously. Probably more review bombing in the negative direction by the Gamer™ crowd perceiving it as woke.

Curious to see where this one lands with people.

Thank the gods for these Indian men. They’ve saved me countless times with their simple solutions to incredibly specific problems.

Haven’t tried streaming, but I have Chromecast devices set up with the jellyfin for android TV app to stream from the NAS over LAN to any TV in the house. Basically don’t have any subscription service so these things are just Jellyfin + YouTube devices.

Have got two of my family members onto bitwarden and even that is a lot for the tech-illiterate. Couldn’t imagine Keepass+syncthing.

Ultimately, bitwarden is better than using hunter12 for everything like how they were.

Tell me about it. Skyrim for all its accolades kind of fails as an RPG in the sense that your character can do pretty much everything, but your run speed/jump height is static.

Increasing health/magic/stamina was a really lame way to handle levelling IMO.

It would be a shame if they streamlined the RPG systems even more for TESVI

That’s a really good point. So many of my friends who used silk road would be multimillionaires if they didn’t spend the btc.

Obsidian user as well. I like to think of it that tags are folders.

When you put something in a folder, you have to choose one of the files identities. Tags more or less allow you to assign a file to any number of groups.

So if you’re writing about an NPC in a DnD campaign, for example: That NPC will exist in a certain place. He will be associated with particular guilds and he will have certain moves that you might want to keep track of. You can later easily search by a guild or a move or a place and there will be a link to that NPC and others that share those indentifying characteristics.

A big advantage of zettelkasten is that you don’t need to really worry about file management in the sense of needing to make exclusionary choices.

Zettelkasten users:

This is such a monkeys paw. You have a drive with $500 million USD of Bitcoin, but the drive is somewhere in the local landfill.

Such a curse, I can’t imagine the regret they feel every day getting up for work.

After 10 years though, isn’t it just gone/destroyed? Rain/corrosion would have destroyed the drive by now.

Looking forward to putting this on my Isthereanydeal waitlist for the 75% off barrier. Genuinely one of the top games of my teen years when it came out, but $50 USD is a bit much for such an old game.

Would YouTube get shittier if Google was broken up? I was under the understanding that YouTube is a loss leader service for Google, but I still think its one of the best social media sites on the web. Even when you consider the number of ads (that doesn’t affect a revanced user).

Yeah sure, the *arr suite in general is a bit advanced to set up, even if it can be done in 30 minutes with experience.

Nintendo just doing what they’ve always done is ironically what gamers have been calling for all this time. Just make fun games with no silly BS.

Say what you will about Nintendo’s litigation strategy (its to protect the value of their IP in their mind), but they’re kind of crushing it even compared to Sony.

I think it’s nice to see the popular gamer rhetoric getting it wrong this time i.e. non Kojima remake = bad.

Hopefully it leads to more nuanced discussion in the future?

Docker can be the install method for windows, and the whole suite of these apps. Probably the neatest way to go? Typically one installs this suite on a NAS that’s running 24/7.
