- Comment on Xbox: "Price Increases Are Never Fun For Anybody" 3 days ago:
yup they’ll go the route of Sega. The writing has been on the wall with the Xbox Division for awhile now that I’m honestly surprised they’re still trying to “make it work”.
Xbox was a weird one. I haven’t used one since the 360 and honestly I couldn’t even begin to tell you what the next console in the line was after the 360. was it the series x? was it the one? I dont’ know. I mean after buying like 5 360s because of red ring or whatever why would I continue that idiocy?
- Comment on Everyone should have a home server (or a friend that has one) 3 days ago:
I use Bitwardens self hosted option, VaultWarden, that I run in a docker. works fine. I use it with the bitwarden CLI since I’m using QuteBrowser on all my machines. I then run a weekly backup of my vaultwarden to an external ssd.
Beauty of it is that it will also work with Bitwardens extension on chrome or firefox. So if I’m on another machine and I need access to my PW’s I can just install the extension, add my self-hosted vaultwarden, then remove it when i’m done.

- Comment on Shortly After Xbox Game Pass Prices Spiked, the Page to Cancel Game Pass Subscriptions Was Overwhelmed 4 days ago:
it WAS a good deal early on. Also when they introduced their partnership with RIOT and it would allow you to unlock all the characters in LoL that was a very good deal if you were a League player.
but the price increases and what have you…meh. it was good to get access to some games and not have to pay full retail for them. I’m thankful I didn’t pay full price for Starfield and just played it on gamepass but there would be months on end where there was nothing on there worth playing.
- Comment on WoW dies with the Lich King 4 days ago:
Shadowlands was where I finally stopped. Playing since day one I’ll never forget when I decided to stop. I got the the “fairy land” part of the expansion, was running my Orc Hunter through and then I just stopped and asked myself “What are you doing?” It wasn’t fun. It became a chore to get through the content to the eventual gear grind at the end just like ALL the previous expansions.

I took a few months off from playing EVE Online and decided to go back this week and…it’s dead? it feels dead. I don’t know what happened in the span of the months I wasn’t playing but now it seems like there are zero corps recruiting or it’s the same handful of corps and theres’ nothing going on in game. Just feels, dead.

- Comment on How to manage docker compose apps? 5 days ago:
I run Akkoma, Navidrome, Searx, valutwarden, RomM, Forgejo, wireguard, RDP, and a few other things all via docker. Honestly I just keep everything in their own dir and just have Yazi on my server to make it easier to manage. I don’t auto update anything, it’s all manual updates.
I’m probably going to slap Watchtower in there to just make things easier. don’t really need to over think it in all honesty.

- Comment on The Video-Game Industry Has a Problem: There Are Too Many Games 1 week ago:
It’s not a problem for me just because of the cost. I want to play Expedition 33 but I’m not sure I want to pay $70 to do so.
I’m happy just playing my old ROM collections or booting up Cyberpunk or whatever. but now I just can’t justify dropping $70+ on a game anymore.
sigh, I’ll probably just end up going back to EVE Online.
- Comment on The Video-Game Industry Has a Problem: There Are Too Many Games 1 week ago:
please, don’t. I’m on another 3 month break from EVE and I don’t want to go back just yet but….please…don’t I’m tired boss.
this has been my life since 2003. EVE, take a break, EVE, another break, EVE, so on and so forth.
- Comment on What's your favourite menu music in a game? 1 week ago:
either Sonic Adventure 2 or Doom Eternal.
Sonic Adventure 2 is just silly, it’s like a 10 to 15second loop of a slightly different version of the main theme but it’s got this like added guitar (I’m not a musician AT ALL) that just really kicks it up a notch. hell I even have the mp3 of it that i’ll listen on loop for a few minutes.
Also the original Apex Legends menu music and character selection music was VERY good.
- Comment on Can someone find a redeeming factor about this game? Like anything good about it. 1 week ago:
I believe it was released on the C64 a couple days before Halloween and then on the NES and every where else shortly there after so yeah, just before Christmas.
But I mean that was just a common thing for the early to mid 80s when it came to videogames. Just get something out before the holidays with a hot franchise on the box and who gives a rats ass what the game is about or if it’s even any good. it’ll sell.
- Comment on where to move for cheap VPS? 1 week ago:
I have OVH for dedicated but I’ve also used their VPS and they’re great. They leave me alone, don’t hound me for anything, cheap prices, reliable as I’ve never had issues them. can’t complain. They’re Euro based but they have servers near me in Montreal so I use that which is great when I put my VPN on there cause now I get student discounts everywhere since my server is at McGill University.

It was a rush job.
The NES and pretty much all home versions of the game were essentially ports of the Commodore 64 game which was the original version. After the films release Colombia Pictures was all “holy shit, we have a hit, we need to capitalize on this ASAP and keep pumping out merch while he’s hot”. Colombia then went to Activision and offered them the license. Colombia Pictures didn’t give a rats ass about the design, the content, or anything the ONLY stipulation they had was get a game out on as many platforms as possible and get it out like yesterday. So what you’re playing on the NES is a grand total of a month and a half of work when at the time a game would typically take 6 months to produce.
It’s not supposed to be good. It’s not supposed to look good. It was simply made to so that something with the name “GhostBusters” was on the shelf in toy stores and sold. and it sold VERY well. it was one of if not the best selling Commodore 64 game of all time…most pirated too.
- Comment on Australia’s under 16s social media ban could extend to Reddit, Twitch, Kick, Roblox, Steam, GitHub, YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest, Discord and even dating apps 1 week ago:
to those wondering “why Github?” because it’s not about protecting 16 year olds doing pull requests it’s about getting YOUR data/IDs. They don’t know whose under 16 or over 16 to access said sites so they need the IDs of EVERYONE. that’s all this is. it has nothing to do with protecting kids.
If I was a government or some firm that harvets Data I would absolutely drool at potentially having a source that is Github to get said info. I would LOVE to harvest info of developers, coders, etc.

- Comment on Google just broke *all* third-party web clients, including yt-dlp; a full JS implementation is now required. 1 week ago:
it’s just annoying having to constantly update my greasemonkey scripts to try to find the ONE that actually works.
like the ad skipping script I had just stopped working the other day. While it WAS skipping ads google decided that “oh you’re skipping ads? cool, we’ll just keep throwing them at you endlessly”
So they’ve FINALLY figured out the add skipping thing and now if you’re speeding through/skipping ads they’ll just serve them endlessly to you.
