  • I finally decided to go full piracy against big companies

    Jump

  • Just curious. Is piracy your strategy to kill the big companies, since you really want to consume their products but don't want to pay, because of your stated reasons?

    For the sake of discussion, is it not possible for you to not buy products from big companies but also not consume their products?

    Using myself as an example, I hate EA so much I don't install any of their products on my machine. Or I hate Adobe so I don't use it at home (the workplace is uncontrollable). I don't pirate their products as there are alternatives, and I cannot imagine how I may enjoy them since I cannot forget who made them.

  • TIL about Wiki.js

    Jump

  • Is there a good option that can export the whole Wiki into a PDF with hyperlinks to different chapters and such?

  • Blocking releasegroups from Sonarr/Radarr [edit] or rather blocking malware regardless of name

    Jump

  • Take a look at Profilarr. You can set fine custom conditions to block anything you want.

  • It's official: EA is going private.

  • Well, their artists did make additional assets though, even if they may be recoloured versions.

  • Don't forget how many years it went live and the absurd number of expansion packs.

  • Basically Tesla, oof

  • Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?

    Jump

  • You could get GamePass and play Expedition 33 at a cheaper price.

    Also, three examples you quoted are both first person based, while BG3 is not.

  • Same, no complaint for Navi and Symfonium.

  • Server access from China

  • Don't make any connection to your home server, period.

  • Pi-hole client filtering without DHCP?

    Jump

  • I mean, the kids don't need to log in YouTube to view Shorts. What's the purpose of setting up anything account related? I missed anything.

    Jump

  • Don't think you need a Google account to view Shorts, though?

  • Pop it in your calendars

    Jump

  • Honestly, I do not plan to buy it after Below Zero. Now that they did all the evil stuff I guess my decision is well justified.

  • Answering your Homelab Questions!

    Jump

  • I feel like I'm doing something illegal by calling my home a lab. Might be thinking too much ;) Jokes aside, I'm not really testing or inventing anything so I genuinely don't understand where the lab part comes from.

  • New Game Concept: JuryNow – Get a Verdict from 12 Real People in 3 Minutes

    Jump

  • I see. So it's like "Ask a friend" of anything. It's a useful application though, if the responses come quick, with more users joining of course. Say, I got two outfits to wear and I want opinions. If users disclose their nationality, occupation, age group and gender, I'd want to know the responses come from say, all male, then I know people of my gender that have such and such jobs wear similarly so I'll be more confident in choosing the outfit. I still don't think it's a game. You can make it fun to help out others by including daily quest, points system etc. Otherwise, I don't know why I would want to spend my free time on others.

  • Genuine question. Why is this a game? Don't the players just answer questions?

  • Synology could bring “certified drive” requirements to more NAS devices

    Jump

  • Without technical know-how or experience in general using NAS, Synology is a good first-time option. All apps are ready for immediate use. And don't forget the majority of computer users don't even know what a NAS is and they simply want to store files for remote access.

  • When building a home server, could a used/cheap PC do the job?

    Jump

  • You could ask the question for video gaming. Can a used computer do the job? Yes, but you may not be able to play cutting edge / demanding games if your computer lacks the appropriate hardware. It really depends what kind of things you want to do, for choosing hardware that's powerful enough.

    Jellyfin? You need to consider if you need transcoding. Transcode or not makes quite a difference on the hardware needs.

    I don't understand the purpose of some selfhosting

    Jump

  • To answer your question, most people don't have just one device. Do you have only one device? You must have at least a desktop computer and a smartphone? What if you want to have something stored in your computer when you are not at home?

    Music for example. If I don't want to pay Spotify or whatever, and I want to listen to my music on my phone at work and on my computer at home. Other than making two full copies of the entire music library, I think I have to store them on a 3rd location then share it to my two devices.

    If I don't listen to music at home, then you're right, there's no reason to self host anything. I can just store all songs on my phone.

    I don't understand the purpose of some selfhosting

    Jump

  • There are three reasons that I can think of:

    1. Privacy
    2. Collaboration
    3. Accessibility / cost

    Privacy. This is obvious. People don't want their private information to be sold by corporations or scraped by AI.

    Collaboration To share information with others, while maintaining point 1, people have to self host. Say, you want to archive a bunch of photos for personal viewing then you can store them anywhere you like. But if you want to share them with family, a self hosted solution is the way to go.

    Accessibility / cost People want to do things for free. Many applications offer free version or demo, but features are often limited and you can't really customize them to your own needs. In addition, applications often adopt a subscription model these days and people don't like that.
