I take my shitposts very seriously.

  • Games you've given honest tries for and just don't find fun

    Jump

  • You're approaching the game from the wrong angle. Progression doesn't reset because there's no mechanical progression. The only way to make progress is to uncover more of the story so you know where you should be looking in the next loop, or how to get around an obstacle. It's a metroidvania of information.

  • This is where the RTFM mindset is important. If you encounter an issue, there's multiple decades' worth of information on the internet that will most likely immediately provide an answer.

    The location of installed files is determined by long-standing conventions that were in effect even before Linux was released... but I won't go into it. You can read about it yourself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_filesystem

    This is my point: do you need to know this? Nine out of ten cases, this is not useful knowledge. I'm a sysadmin and even I don't need to know where each program's files are located. You should not be interacting with these files at all. Let a package manager do that.

  • At the same time, I've seen people use their Steam Deck as a server.

  • To delegate the responsibility of securing login data to a company better equipped to deal with it (in theory at least). You can also use an external OIDC provider.

  • Sony Pulls Back From PlayStation Games on PC

    Jump

  • Destiny is on life support, Hunters Gathering is dead on arrival, Marathon's future is bleak, Concord is Concord, and the one studio that could've printed them easy money is dead because the sorry excuse of a circus that is Sony leadership really wanted a live service God Of War title. Gee, I wonder why sales are low.

    Jump

  • Tailscale. Create an account, put the client on the LAN device, put the client on the remote device, log in on both, you're done. It bypasses NAT, CGNAT, and the firewall through some UDP black magic fuckery. As long as the router allows outgoing connections, it will work.

    If the factory resets cause the router to lose connection to the ISP, though, then nothing will work.

  • LXC Jellyfin Container and Tailscale

    Jump

  • Tailscale Funnel will let you expose a host to everyone on the internet. You'll need the Tailscale client running on either the Jellyfin host or a reverse proxy pointing to it. Tailscale itself will act as a reverse proxy with TLS encryption, plus a DNS server.

    Exposing a service to the internet will always present some risk. You should definitely run your LXCs as unprivileged, unless needed otherwise, to mitigate the potential damage if an attacker escapes the container, or put the services in full virtual machines.

  • LXC Jellyfin Container and Tailscale

    Jump

  • external access

    Do you want the Jellyfin server to be accessible from only within your tailnet, or anywhere from the internet?

  • I agree completely. There's only one chance to make a first impression. The final ad slot of TGA needs a worthy game that the audience can be excited about, and putting the most generic, most corporate-looking game there felt like an insult. Kind of like this absolute flop.

  • Highguard will permanently shut down on March 12th.

    Jump

  • Not a lot, just enough to get the feel of the game, but also to realize that I'm not the target audience. In some ways, it's similar to Counter-Strike 1.6 or Team Fortress 2 back in high school: if I have a group of friends and an hour of free time, then sure, I might hop on. But I won't be investing the time and long-term effort that an extraction shooter expects of me.

    The moment to moment experience is good. Bungie haven't forgotten how to create a tight FPS experience. But the game needs both longevity and a healthy playerbase, that's what concerns me. Fans of hardcore extraction shooters already have Tarkov and Hunt, and casual players already have Arc Raiders. It takes something exceptional to move players out of their "home" game.

    Jump

  • I don't see how this would be a grift. Tencent's funding seems to have been contingent on some kind of metric, and they pulled out because Highguard fell short.

  • Highguard will permanently shut down on March 12th.

    Jump

  • Marathon is probably life or death for Bungie. Sony can't exactly afford to put out a mid game after spending so much on the studio... and "mid" is exactly what Marathon felt like. Just like so many copycats during the battle royale boom.

    I don't think it will fail (or if it does, not as hard as Highguard), but unless it manages to stand out from the Tarkov/Arc Raiders/Hunt: Showdown oligopoly, it won't bring in the numbers to please Sony.

    Jump

  • By "dev team", I'm guessing you mean the artists, designers, programmers, and testers; the people who spent the last five or so years actually creating the game. Yes, it sucks for them. Their years of work have effectively been thrown in the trash because of Wildlight's management. I hope they find better work soon, and I hope the management become personae non gratae in the industry.
