Escape Academy or similar type of escape room/puzzle games might work.

Slay the Spire 2 has a good co-op option. And technically any digital boardgame (ticket to ride for example) would meet your vibes.

Maybe a little more intense, but Rayman Legends/Origins are pretty cozy.

Any of the Lego games would probably work.

Peak has an “easy” setting that just makes it a goofy teamwork based game.

I was looking into how cost effective it would be to upgrade/build a new rig - from my research I think you’d struggle to make a new build that runs 4K/60 under $1000. I feel like the steam machine is maybe $100-200 above a similar build, but that ignores things like size/wattage/CEC

I use Audiobookshelf as the app support is great (allows downloading offline versions and progress syncs when you reconnect to internet). This works amazingly well with my Boox Palma 2 since it runs android.

I don’t download a ton of books, so I just have some simple Python scripts for organizing the content.

I am certain this is an area my self hosted solutions lack, but still happy to share.

For me accessibility is the most important, and I have family that’s not technically savvy, so vpns/Wireguard arent great for my use case. So I use a reverse proxy to expose certain apps and have fail2ban configured to block/ban ips that misbehave. This essentially blocks people trying to guess accounts and I’ve been toying with some ratelimiting. However, as many will say, this is not a very secure system and I should monitor my local traffic more to be aware of bad actors.

At the end of the day though it’s really a battle of ease vs security. Reverse proxies provide easier access, but more risk compared to things like vpns. Also, SSH should be setup for key only (no password) and should never be exposed to the public internet (so no reverse proxy).

I’ve been tempted by things like authentik, but how does that work for things like apps and tv sticks (roku / Chromecast)? Or does it really only work for browser based applications?

What story can you even tell from this show in 2 hours? I feel like a lot of the payoffs in the series happen after really long setups and developing characters, I’m not sure a movie works for that format.

I’ve heard rumors it may be 2029. I think the real issue is how do you make a more powerful system without a ridiculous price given current costs. Its probably much better for them to wait given no one in gaming can afford the equipment for better performance right now.

Audiobookshelf, Its designed for audiobooks and its folder structure is unintuitive, but it’s got the best website and apps of all the ones I’ve tried (including kogma).

I messed around with a couple of different approaches (Calibre web, kogma, etc.), but the best all around experience I have had is Audiobookshelf. Kogma is probably better if just doing manga, but Audiobookshelf has worked the best for hosting comics/manga/ebooks. The only real annoying things is the folder structure. I’ve needed to use some scripts to reorganize/rename files so it handles them correctly.

Thanks for sharing. Largely just commenting to share support due to the large amount of AI hate you’re getting. This seems like a real app solving real problems (although personally I use audiobookshelf for syncing even if it’s hit or miss on actual ebooks).

This is why I don’t think Newsom will make it through the primaries, he likes to talk the talk, but rarely actually backs it up.

As with most AI/LLMs it’s about how much error you can tolerate.

Translating basic info, sure the user can infer any slight mess ups. Translating jokes, idoms, tone, cultural differences, etc. is hard assuming you even got the original text right.

For me, it’s worked out for plex. What it offered at the time was more than worth the price and I’ve felt a little bad about it being a once and done payment.

That being said they’ve hurt some of the good will with the changes they’ve made, but also I imagine they’re struggling to find a sustainable path for development.

If looking for a good “actual fox” game I’d recommend tunic!

I thought the game was okay. Combat was a bit wonky and the story a bit hard to follow, but do to the length it may be worth it. Especially if your into occult magic/cthulu themes.
