cool, never using them again

this is what progress looks like

While like other have said, extensions do work, I wouldn't expect zen to prioritize extension compatibility. I've been following development and it seems like a personal project

There's also readwise reader which is better in most ways. Not open source - but also not pretending to be either

Great. I support dbzer0 over the reddit bootlickers any day of the week.

Aw dammit, was hoping it'd be the TV series. That shit rocked

I mean it's just kinda gimmicky so with this added issue I just can't support it.

Racknerd. I have two VPS with them for a total of $25/year. not as feature filled as any of the big players but it's dirt cheap. Found them on https://lowendbox.com/

So an alternative will pop up right? At this point pirating nintendo games is a moral obligation

This one is definitely a famous troll. I've seen this image without the frozen meme tacked to the bottom plenty of times

I know this isn't strictly related to patient gaming, but I think it fits the ethos of this community and I can't think of a better choir to preach to.

The director of Dragon's Dogma II made the following statement regarding limiting or removing fast travel

Just give it a try. Travel is boring? That's not true. It's only an issue because your game is boring. All you have to do is make travel fun

I think this is fairly compelling. Though I will say, I don't think the answer is to limit fast travel. The real limitations developers should be placing should be on filler quests that have you traveling from point a to point b and then back with some slight pretext as to why you're doing so. It's not fast travel that's the issue so much as mission design and the manners in which the player is compelled to cross the game world.

Metroidvanias are a great example of how to allow for fast travel while still making traveling around the game world compelling. The latest Metroid, Metroid Dread, was really fantastic in this aspect. You have this sense of progression and exploration even as you're backtracking.

Would removing fast travel from Metroid Dread have made it any better? I don't think so. The inclusion of fast travel feels thematic. You have to work for it so it feels like an achievement to unlock. It augments the game.

So in short, I agree with some of the sentiment expressed, with regards to lazy gameplay design being boring. I disagree with the opinion that fast travel necessarily is boring, or causes lazy desing.

 

This looks like an amazing little box that can do almost anything. I'm wondering how people feel about the pricepoint

$679 early bird

$839 msrp

I'd love to grab one to use as a router/firewall, plus run any homelabbing containers I have on my NAS.

How's the value proposition stack up? Price looks great to me considering the cpu and connectivity it offers.

Edit: Additional info

serve the home sponsored video sponsored but still really really informative. There's a section near the end going through a tons of ideas of how to utilize the pci slot, including epanding nvme storage, external sas, extra networking etc. seems you can get over 40gb extra throughput from that port.

Forum thread for pci slot compatibility

Today I discovered a tool called OrgPad which has a lot of potential. Unlike all the major players in the mindmap space right now, each node isn't just a heading, but an actual piece of content, with a title. Each node can be expanded or collapsed so you can focus on what you want to while maintaining context.

It's also got an amazing interface that's incredibly polished.

I've also just discovered TheBrain, which is also a delightful mindmap tool, but the cost is prohibitive at around $20/month just to sync across devices, the interface isn't as slick as mindmeister or xmind, in fact it looks ancient. But it's very powerful and feels really good to use. It also has the benefit of making notes a first class object instead of a tiny icon on a node which the more popular mindmaps do. But the win goes to org mode for being superior in most ways, at a fraction of the cost.

 

For example, the following had been posted and I saved them for later, but now they're gone, and searching for the same doesn't result in them.

I can only think of 2 things but would love clarification if any one knows. 1. they found a virus or something malicious in a release, or 2. they got a dmca or copyright takedown

Both seem somewhat unlikely R2R has a really good reputation, and there's enough on audioz that if copyright stuff could get anything taken down, the site wouldn't exist at all.

I just finished using this guide to get Blocky set up. Part 2 shows how to set up the grafana dashboard.

I was inspired to set up blocky instead of the other more popular alternatives due to his other video showing that blocky has the best latency of all

blocky vs pihole vs adguard
