- Comment on "The goal is to provide what we can": Elder Scrolls Online Crown Store undergoing changes due to "team bandwidth" in wake of Xbox layoffs 2 months ago:
They could delete the crown store and I might consider playing it again. Tbh I was ok with a subscription on its own, its all the other crap that kills my interest.
- Comment on Microsoft makes more job cuts as Xbox gets a reset with four studios going elsewhere 2 months ago:
Does anyone still work at Xbox anymore
- Comment on Simple GOG client for Linux Minigalaxy version 1.4.2 is out now 2 months ago:
Does it do anything that Lutris doesn’t? I usually download gog installers for both Linux and windows games (often from my phone and rsync it across to PC) and use them interchangeably on Linux with Lutris and you don’t even notice a difference once it’s installed.
- Comment on SKG Publisher Warning — browser tool that warns you when a publisher kills games 2 months ago:
So the same thing with physical, the shop could be told to stop selling and distributing it.
Also don’t gog usually only stop sales rather than distribution from existing purchases?
- Comment on SKG Publisher Warning — browser tool that warns you when a publisher kills games 2 months ago:
I have bought a game on gog, how can the publisher revoke that game from me now that I have it?
Not aware of any games on gog that are always online
- Comment on SKG Publisher Warning — browser tool that warns you when a publisher kills games 2 months ago:
Do any games on GoG exist that can be killed by a publisher?
- Comment on Expect RAM prices to stay high with Micron locking in deals for 5 years 2 months ago:
I don’t need to buy a more powerful PC if I don’t want to. I could game on 2GB just fine. I game on 32GB because when I bought it I could afford it and wanted to, but it isn’t a hard requirement. Still running an RTX2070 and see no reason to upgrade, when it dies the lowest spec GPU will probably be an upgrade.
- Comment on Expect RAM prices to stay high with Micron locking in deals for 5 years 2 months ago:
At this rate I suspect by 2035 I will be running a pi zero 3/4 as my main PC.
- Comment on Expect RAM prices to stay high with Micron locking in deals for 5 years 2 months ago:
Surely if the bubble pops then micron are doing great as the deals are already agreed, but that RAM won’t be worth what companies paid for it either. What would they do with it, try and sell it off to recover some of the cost of the RAM they no longer need?

No wonder his men followed him so gladly into battle. He is our leader by day, and lover by night.
- Comment on Uses for stalled mead? 3 months ago:
Certainly sweetening other drinks seems like an idea. Maybe more as a mixer than to back sweeten though.
- Comment on Uses for stalled mead? 3 months ago:
Yeah too much sugar at once is the likely cause of it.
Next ferment probably going to be cider. Let the yeast recover a bit.
- Comment on Uses for stalled mead? 3 months ago:
Could be, or at least blended with it. The previous batch at a lower target ABV did work with the same Lidl own brand of honey but each batch they sell could be different too, or HFCS still ferments up to a point.
Either way its a lesson for next brew, just a matter of what to do with all I have left.
- Comment on Uses for stalled mead? 3 months ago:
Tried and didn’t get far. I do wonder what type of sugars it has, it was the cheapest Lidl honey I could get. So not sure on the quality of the honey. Also used quite a lot of it. IIRC the previous batch that fermented dry in a couple of weeks or so was targeting 7.5% and this was 15%. So that is also a likely reason for it.
Want to try an apple mead again, but sweeten it a little after it’s finished. Maybe berry meads too. Seems to ferment a lot easier which is also a benefit.

- Comment on What's your contingency plan for the apocalypse? 3 months ago:
Any tips for trying to catch fish for food? UK here and everything is written like it’s a sport instead. Plus it’s usually for freshwater where you need licensing and permissions but I live by the sea.
Caught a couple of crabs before but that is about it.
- Comment on What's your contingency plan for the apocalypse? 3 months ago:
In most of those situations I have bigger problems to deal with and can always restore from backup later.
If it’s so serious I don’t even have backups left then it doesn’t matter anymore.
- Comment on Volkswagen knew what they were doing 3 months ago:
It was a pretty good one, but yeah nothing to do with VW this time.
- Comment on Oh god... what have I become... 6 months ago:
Always need fresh leather and organ donors.

BDSM relationships still require consent
- Comment on Self-hosting minecraft 1 year ago:
Its been a long time since I played, wouldn’t the best protection from that just be not broadcasting the server to the open internet? Never had an issue with servers that were technically fully open but only telling friends about it. I suppose whitelist is better than security through obscurity though.
