I totally missed it initially, because there were two Nintendo Directs - Tuesday (40th Zelda anniversary) and Wednesday (the regular one).

Also - at least in my circle - there was a debate about 2D Metroid vs 3D Metroid and maybe that’s a general thing regarding Metroid fans? Idk, I’m not that deep into the franchise.

Also I heard from some something to the extent of “FML not another dread 2”. And I get it. While Dread was generally great, I had it twice send me in a death loop in an E.M.M.I area where I constantly respawned right in front of the E.M.M.I. and the only way to progress was to survive the inevitable (quite unfair) insta-death QTE AND get to the next checkpoint without dying… (Technically I didn’t respawn right in front of it, but in front of the door leading to it, but that door was the only way to progress and after going through you were right in front of that fucker, no matter what I did)

I mean it was only announced yesterday, so it’s not hard to have it missed

I guess it’s a reference to the new Metroid Ravenous. The trailer mentions feasting on enemies and “it’s eat or be eaten” while showing that purple glow.

But yeah, that was my exact “malicious compliance” interpretation, too

My current setup for this:

I own a domain - say homelab.com - and use it exclusively in my internal network.

The public DNS records do only resolve to 127.0.0.1 (as my domain holster doesn’t want me to have no A record).

In my home network I have a pihole running that resolves this domain and it’s subdomains locally (say pihole.homelab.com, proxmox.homelab.com and so on).

For HTTPs: As this server is not publicly reachable, I use the DNS API of my domain host to get a let’s encrypt certificate with the DNS-01 challenge. That way, the internal systems do not need to be exposed to the internet.

Back when Nebula offered a lifetime subscription for a few days, I was debating myself if it’d be worth it. So far, I still have paid more in advance for it than if I had just subscribed monthly/yearly, but I absolutely don’t regret getting it.

They basically used runes in a newsletter for a promotion of a game that “rendered unfavorably on some devices”. Whether it’s a QA error or if it was intentional with “plausible deniability” was debated everywhere a few weeks ago.

I don’t have an 8bitdo controller but I experienced many games being quite picky on Windows, too.

Oh, you accidentally had the sound set to your speakers instead of the head set? Too bad, well ignore that you switched the sound output. Oh, you connected/woke the controller after starting the game? Too bad. Won’t work. Etc.

I experienced way less of this shit since I switched to Linux…
