- Comment on PC port of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Ship of Harkinian, gets a huge Randomizer upgrade 1 day ago:
The instructions are trying extra hard to avoid any semblance of acknowledging the existence of piracy to keep the Nintendo lawyers away. Annoying, but necessary and understandable
- Comment on Civilization 7 Outlines Crucial 1.1.1 Update as It Struggles to Compete on Steam Against Civ 6 and Even the 15-Year-Old Civ 5 1 week ago:
I’m not paying $120 Australian for it no matter how improved it is
- Comment on What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread 1 month ago:
I ended up just adapting my composes to run commands, on my desktop I don’t mind having to manually start them at boot, I could easily make a simple thing to just run at boot and just say
podman run <container>as most of my containers depend on others so I can just start the child-most container and it’ll start them all. I just have some shenanigans where I use one container as a VPN for the other ones, which is a bit messy if using rootless. I’ll have a look into the links and see if there’s anything new in there I haven’t seen before but yeah, nothing unsolveable I’m just needlessly putting things off lol - Comment on What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread 1 month ago:
I more mean replacing the runtime etc, I’ve got some running on another machine and had some difficulty wrapping my head around the subuid and subgid stuff, so in theory I should be fine but it’s an irrational worry lol
- Comment on What's up, selfhosters? - Sunday thread 1 month ago:
I’m eternally sitting here putting off migrating my homelab from docker to rootless podman due to some rather janky patterns I use. It might be super smooth or it might not so instead I just wait in endless decision paralysis
- Comment on Civilization VII gets a mixed reception on Steam, Firaxis say they're listening and put up a small roadmap 1 month ago:
I think I paid like $5 aud for civ 5 including all SLC, which was my first foray into civ so its definitely given me unrealistic expectations, but meeting even halfway would be way more palatable
- Comment on Civilization VII gets a mixed reception on Steam, Firaxis say they're listening and put up a small roadmap 1 month ago:
The game is also like fkn $120 Australian for the base version. Ain’t nobody got time for that, I’ll give it a look when its comparable in price to the existing titles
- Comment on NAS Hardware selection 1 month ago:
I did the opposite and used it as an excuse to upgrade my main PC, with the parts that got replaced being inherited by the new server.
Perhaps an unwise move due to it not being optimised for power savings, and looking at your particular use case it wouldn’t be a smart move.
Depending in where you want to have this NAS, one of the more important factors to consider is how quiet you can make it. If you only have a few HDDs they’re not too loud, but ssds are silent. It can also be worth getting some good fans and making sure you can mount them in a way that doesn’t cause unnecessary vibration to have it be real quiet.
- Comment on Fucking Optus doesn't provide ipv6 over cell. And starlink has cgnat. 2 months ago:
Aussie broadband have cgnat but will turn it off if you ask. I don’t pay for a static IP and I’ve not had it change in 5 years, but I can pay $5 a month to guarantee it
- Comment on The soundtrack occasionally gets stuck in my head all these years later 2 months ago:
Pfft, icicle pyramid is better
- Comment on Microsoft is scraping Word and Excel data to "train AI models" 4 months ago:
Wonder whether they would ever scrape vscode or whether they expect that particular cohort may take less kindly to it
- Comment on Bunnings told to destroy 'faceprint' data after landmark ruling on facial recognition use 4 months ago:
I just don’t have a reply when some actual degen replies with “yes.”
- Comment on Bunnings told to destroy 'faceprint' data after landmark ruling on facial recognition use 4 months ago:
Doesn’t always work, but I ask if they shit with the door open. If they say no, I argue they have nothing to hide, everyone shits
- Comment on Selfhosted alternative to Spotify 5 months ago:
I’m also loving finamp, I keep meaning to try building it on desktop when I have free time, but also keep forgetting
- Comment on 2024 Self-Host User Survey Results 5 months ago:
I don’t want to accidentally cache some no-no content that gets me turbofucked by the law, sure I could probably defend if it ever came up but that’s a stress i dont even want the possibility of having in my life
- Comment on Ryujinx Switch Emulator Removed After Nintendo’s Request 5 months ago:
I’m sure that would have followed if the threat was insufficient. Not like they haven’t litigated before
- Comment on Ryujinx Switch Emulator Removed After Nintendo’s Request 5 months ago:
It would make me immensely happy for Nintendo to be labeled a vexatious litigant. It’ll never happen, but let me dream damn it
