  I don’t disagree on a general scale but in relation to this post it isn’t the rich forcing a lot of teams back to work. It’s people in management positions that are over valued and unable to provide an effective workspace without being over their workers shoulders. There’s always the argument the building owners who rent their spaces are the ones paying to get RTO more advertisement space, but in the end it’s the middle class doing it to itself.

  Agreed with this. Started in the CIV world with 5, then a buddy introduced me to Rome:Total War and it was like finding crack. I still like to take over all of Europe at some point once a year.

  Just a heads up OP, the games are limited to regions of the world, it’s never the full globe.

  Yup, Ontario had it for a small community and the people on it were doing great. They’re still just running these programs in other areas to try and find the one with negative results so every country can point to that as their reason to not do it longterm.

  That’s why you keep seeing 100 of these “trials”.

  The double G feature would allow me to pwn noobs in half of the time.

  I’ve learned something new, and also simultaneously seen things in that guys modlog that continued to make me question humanity. Phew, good callout.

  This is the first I’ve heard about Brazil in this type of cyber attack. Is it re-routed traffic going there or are there a large number of Brazilian bot farms now?

  I’m going to be going the free solution route, been trying to find a cheap laptop to turn into my server right now. Do you mind if I reach out about it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dumb question but should there be VPNs operating on both ends, server and client? Or just the client because I’m guessing the server might change the connection address.
