  • These days games often allow you to individually change the difficulty which I make use quite often when I feel a game is becoming too much of a hassle than a joy and I still want to know how the story continues or see what might be coming.

    I don't think I have used a classic cheat in a long time. The last time I actively remember was The Sims 3 (I guess) and it kind of killed the game for me because suddenly everything was possible without any challenge and even a normal playthrough felt like I was missing something.

  • Good to hear. Now buy an external HDD or a device of your choice and copy the files there and store it somewhere safe. One backup is no backup.

  • You may want to change the title and include the word "protection"...

  • The traffic is really suspicious. Have you by any chance a health or heartbeat endpoint which provides continuous output? That would explain why so little hits cause so much traffic.

  • It is an open alternative to MS365 developed on behalf of the German ministry of the interior and distributed as open source software.

    If I remember correctly it is not an independent development but it is based on existing software and integrating them to build a consistent service.

    I think it combines Nextcloud, Element, Jitsi and some other projects.

  • It sounds like a few sixty year old engineer(s) got some managers to sign off the release of the source code and decided to do the most out of the lack of resources they had available. I have no problem with them using AI to write a press release. No one is going to read it anyways in a few weeks of time - but the release is there forever (within reasonable limits).

  • The community edition allows me to have multiple sites, multiple users and is way easier to set up. If I ever need additional features like funnels I would need a subscription for both - Plausible is less expensive.

  • Just a word of warning for everyone: The free self hosted version is heavily limited. I will stick with Plausible which may be simpler but also doesn't want to push me into a subscription.

  • It would be fun if it was a C64 type Joystick... 🕹️

  • I have an Ouya and an original Steam controller…

  • I don't say I want to encourage that. All I want to say is that this might be a similar situation to the "satanic panic" in the 80s and 90s which in hindsight feels stupid and a thing of the past.

  • I understand that. But to be honest the value of these cards is in most cases much lower than the purchase price - so the real value is not what these cards are worth but the fun you have / had collecting them and playing with them. And I am willing to believe that the same fun can come from digital assets in a game. You're right that the company in charge can end this any time they want but usually this happens when nobody is playing it anymore. I don't like this development either but I nevertheless can imagine that a Fortnite gift card can bring the same joy as a booster pack of MtG.

  • While I agree that this is not a good thing, I have to say it is not much different to for example Pokemon cards. Sure you could sell physical cards - if you're lucky maybe even without loss - but I don't think it is so much different.

  • My home server is currently in the center of the house, but I want to move it in the basement. I was looking into ethernet based coordinators, but there are so many. Does anybody have a recommendation for an ethernet capable alternative?

  • But it also means that 2025 most likely will not get patches anymore.

  • Make sure to get some that mimic battery power loss at the end. Some models just shut off when they are empty and others slowly reduce the voltage so that battery indicators on devices are able to pick that and display a warning to change batteries soon.

  • I would love to have an overview before I install an app what it might cost. Play store lists at least minimum and maximum in-app-purchases, but the information is not very visible and I cannot filter my results based on it. And if need to pay for a subscription on the app website it will not be reflected at all.

    Developers should be forced to provide an outline what you get for free (if they decide to advertise/sell their app as free) and what the different payment/subscription tiers include.

    Of all places Microsoft Windows Store does it quite well for some apps (like MS Office), but also does not enforce it for all apps.

  • Yet it should be noted that while 90% of games could run on Linux sadly only about 3% actually are running on Linux…

  • There is also iMike78/nest-mini-drop-in-pcb which - although through putting in a new board - will hopefully make the Nest Mini speaker HA Voice compatible.
