- Comment on While we eagerly await the second coming of Steam Machines, it's worth remembering what a gloriously awful mess Valve got itself in over a decade ago 12 hours ago:
You think Gabe Newell hates Microsoft so much that he has his company contribute to Linux and open source, simply out of spite?
- Comment on Steam Machine is huge for indie development 18 hours ago:
I was gonna say before reading your last sentence, the Steam Deck definitely could have accelerated this. It’s extremely accessible while doubling as a computer powerful enough for development. It’s pretty great they’re offering dev kits for the new Steam Frame, too. It’s really going to bust the scene wide open.

I don’t like to make fun of where people live, because everyone has different circumstances. But it is severely mind-boggling that people who do live in rural, less economically-inclined areas think that a narcissistic, city-slicking conman has their best interests in mind. This person may remain in that mobile home forever while Trump and his cadre of billionaires continue to siphon them for every penny, and that’s depressing.

Castle Crashers my beloved! Those games, plus games like No Man’s Sky still receiving free updates 9 years later. Made by real humans with no shareholders to please who are passionate about the games they create.

finished after 4 years - Comment on Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other? 1 week ago:
I think it was more prevalent when there were “console wars” i.e., fans of Xbox, Playstation, or Nintendo would shout at the other two about how great their system and games were. Some of it was probably marketing, some of it was overly excited and fanatical people making arguments for a thing they like. Generally, PC gamers get to enjoy a little bit of everything, from PC ports to emulators to their own exclusive swathes of games, but the label of “PC Gamer” feels marred by the idiots over at r/pcmasterrace.
Nowadays I’d be very surprised to see this bickering, considering how cross-platform everything is now. Playstation games are on PC, Xbox games are coming to Playstation. Nintendo is… well, Nintendo.
- Comment on What exactly is the reasoning behind Satan ruling Hell? 1 week ago:
I prefer some of the Gnostic interpretations of Lucifer, or Satan, where he attempts to introduce knowledge (gnosis) to Adam and Eve by way of the forbidden Fruit of Knowledge in an effort to ‘awaken’ them. Meanwhile, God the evil Demiurge does not want Adam and Eve to truly know what lies beyond Him, forcing Satan out.
- Comment on My own copyparty instance 1 week ago:
I don’t mean to add to the discourse here or to keep giving you hypotheticals but, while learning to self host is fun and cool, you really do not want this thing on public Internet. Even if you can delete files to prevent uncouth things, what if someone uploads something while you’re asleep, or away from your computer? Do you have others monitoring the instance to take down CSAM or other illegal material? What if someone uploads malware and it executes on your machine? If you must leave it exposed, you should allow only family and friends to access via a strongly passworded account(I think that is configurable with copy party).
If you really want to expose services, try a media server like Plex or Jellyfin. You don’t want strangers to upload things to your machines.

I’ve seen a few of OP’s posts and they’re really strange but what you linked is just eugenics. Get fucked, op.
- Comment on Why do so many boomers and even some gen x believe so peristently that if you dressup and show up in person anywhere you will get whatever you went there for? 3 weeks ago:
Congrats on getting your dad to change his mind, even if begrudgingly.
There are so many people in his generation that simply do not understand what this job market is like, what navigating Indeed or LinkedIn is like, or how people apply for those jobs anymore. Very little human interaction happens applying for jobs these days.

Alternatively, imagining arguments you could have, and coming up with responses in the shower.

I played the demo for Crossworlds and it holds its own very well. I’m not sure I want to drop 70 big ones on it though…

Thanks for this info.

I specified locally hosted/managed because we’d like to avoid clouds and subscriptions. I don’t really want to divulge details but this is mostly for home security against a specific individual, and this person might be inclined to attempt logins into a cloud service. From my end I’d just set up a wireguard tunnel and us it to remote into some kind of server/NVR at my sister’s house.

I hadn’t heard of Tapo, and while TP-Link scares me a little, it looks like it could also be integrated into Home Assistant for viewing. Does the camera record over the first-recorded data when the SD Card gets full? Do you use the TP-Link/Tapo app for local management? Thanks for your response.

If another kind soul comes through with a good suggestion, I’ll try to remember to tag you! There’s got to be something out there.

Welcome to the lemmyverse! You probably want to post this in a community like !casualconversation@piefed.social rather than a theme community like this one. Make sure to read the sidebars on the comms to understand the rules before posting :)
