  Exactly, GOG has no control on how you use it, for all intents and purposes it’s yours. You can even borrow the game to your friends if you want. I love GOG, hope they nvr go under

  Youjo no senki has more isekai quartet seasons than actual seasons. I say isekai quartet is now the main Youjo no senki series

  Reminds how Diplomacy is not an Option is seriously hard even in the lowest difficulty “walk in the park”, they really should nerf it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah, that was a few years ago, its 50% on every thing now, literally looking at the price on aliexpress as I write this, R$29 earphone with R$14 tax

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Even products bellow 50 USD are getting the 50% tax now, and xeons dont have igpu, I prefer to buy an intel with igpu to do hardware encoding/decoding, more efficient and I heard it gets the job done really well (jellyfin says to absolutely not buy AMD APUs for hardware decoding btw). For hosting I actually have pots 80 and 443 open on my router so Ive been using caddy and duckdns with no issues.

  Which hard drives have you bought btw?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Been using duckdns with a caddy reverse proxy, no idea what I will do with the server tho

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I sure hope my system does not draw 350W!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks, I might go with what I listed tho I still ahve no clue about intel motherboards

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for being the only one here that is actually commenting on hardware choices, everyone else is trying to convince me to try stuff I already tried haha

  I might just splurge and get one of those drives afterall, hopefully they go on sale at some point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah, might look into that after I ahve it up and running thanks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Luckily electricity isnt TOO expensive here but I will keep that in mind thanks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not an option, a friend sent me a box with a few snacks and even that got taxed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, 7200 version of those drives are all over 400 USD here, my poor bank account

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Will stream over the internet and being in a developing country a lot of devices can’t even handle h265 so ltos of transcoding. Will also host foundryVTT and maybe some game servers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I live in a developing country, when libraries/business and other places get rid of hardware its because its literally useless, Im talking single core 32bit cpus useless. I made this thread so I hopefully wont make any mistakes hahaha

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No need to think, I mention in another comment that we have 50% tariff on all imported stuff. And I’m not buying 10 year old stuff for that price lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, might do just that then, thanks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What would be some options for NAS drives? The ones I found were quite expensive to the point I think it would be cheaper to just replace damaged drives and run them in RAID. Was also thinking about using a M.2 drive to run programs on and HDDs for file storage, I wonder how beneficial and how hard it is to do that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah, dont think the dedicated GPU will be necessary, most posts Ive seen clain that intel’s igpu can handle multiple 4k streams, tho I could try to find a cpu with the 770 instead of the 730? Not sure how much of a diff it would make tho

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Its my first server but not my first pc, so I know I can use a 700W PSU with no issue except most of them have the highest efficiency at around 50% so less potent PSU would be ideal in the long run, if not only to save money on electricity bills but also for the enviroment

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Does matter what you write unfortunately, they checking everything now. I plan on buy new so I can get longer warranty

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  a laptop would extremely limiting as far as storage goes, I prefer not having to add a NAS later. Thanks for the info tho

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, sadly not an option otherwise I wouldve gone for it right away, most of my family would never buy desktop pc hardware for anything

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First server: Buying hardware in a developing country⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Government started taxing imports by 50% a few years back, buying from other countries is expensive and means I get no warranty, worst of both worlds sadly

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CODE VEIN II — Announcement Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My biggest problem with the first game is the difficulty curve. I think it peaked at the second zone if I’m not mistaken, then it goes up and down like crazy, last boss was a joke for example. Love the game tho, hope they can fix that for the sequel

  Crime Scene Cleaner is such a great game

  The one thing a Dune game must have are scary sandworms, if it was like any other death nobody would care about them, so I agree they should destroy all your stuff. People need to fear the open sand
