Then use a desktop app instead, this is absolutely useful for me to host on my homelab, I can convert from any web connected device.

But I want to trust randos with my file conversions! 😡

It will if it detects the requests and blocks them

Crowdsec is what stops the intrusion.

I made the mistake of looking at comments on one of the steam news articles.

Would depend on what reverse proxy you’re using, I saw they replied with Caddy, I set it up using Traefik instead

Fair enough, it is annoying having to go to each individual discord to find answers.

Their argument (from my recollection) mostly revolved around their lack of control, they were upset that they could no longer delete all their content off nexusmods.

The sad reality is the reason it was brought forward was due to how frequently mod authors would throw hissy fits and delete their mods.

Wabbajack (precursor to collections and I’d wager still superior for Beth games) mod lists frequently ran into this issue. In many cases it equated to many many hours of work to fix, assuming it wasn’t an essential mod.

Thunderstore is actually excellent for its ease of use, making a mod list to share with a friend is as easy as export profile code.

Where it absolutely fails is any kind of conflict resolution, vortex has it but mod organizer imo is way easier to use (and consistently works) in that regard.

Not to argue on the drama, it was stupid and I fully side with nexus on their reasoning.

I miss slack every day, teams is getting better but… Ugh

I don’t think it will effect scalping in the slightest, just lokm at how GPU prices skyrocketed and scalping was even worse of a problem. The scarcity increases demand and therefore increases how much they can charge.

Potentially.

I have on the same windows install gone from 7 to 10 to 11 without much issue. There were several win 10 updates that fucked with my setup more then the upgrade process.

It’s still a thing unfortunately, one could argue they’re attempting to make modding profitable for modders, but of course they get a cut too.

I currently use Bazzite on my old laptop, just wanted to try out immutable distros and I like to stream games from my rig to it sometimes so completely functional steam was a nice addition. Plus learning about flatpaks and app images over installed packages has been interesting.

Then on my servers Debian/Proxmox and usually Ubuntu server in LXCs for more updated APTs then Debian, though I mostly run docker for my web apps rather then native APTs.

I work for a company that has a java program that functions on Linux but is nowhere near the level of support provided for mac/Windows, so I’m the Linux guy for our dept and when a customer is running into issues on a distro I’ll spin up a vm on my homelab and see if I can rum through an install and get it functional.

So far the only one I literally couldn’t get installed was Slackware lol I even figured out how to get it functional in ChromeOSes Linux subsystem.

That’s a great point, yes, the majority of my podcast listening was on my longer drive before covid then I was wfh for a while but also moved closer to my eventual office.

I’m general I heard the podcast ecosystem is in a dire state, post covid numbers dropped a lot seemingly.

It’s funny because I used to listen to podcasts way more frequently before covid, but I’ve sorta transitioned to long form videos instead of straight podcasts.

To be clear, I mean the musical instrument.

If you seriously don’t get it, keyboards for music are electronic and many consider it to be an evolution of Piano since you can do much more with it due to the electronics.

The comparison being (Piano) hard wire/cable headphones are an older form of tech, and while absolutely they have a good use (particularly where low latency or higher quality audio are concerned, I would know I own a pair of studio quality sennheisers) in situations where you do not need those things, and instead want more flexibility, wireless headphones (electronic keyboard) are perfectly serviceable (amd have massively improved over the last decade alone).

Therefore it always makes me laugh a little when people constantly complain on new devices that it’s missing a headphone jack. It’s like complaining that the new keyboard from Casio isn’t a piano.

I understand why people miss the headphone jack, I did too for a while, but honestly wireless earbuds are so much more convenient anyway and the sound quality has improved quite a bit to my ears over the years.

Right, I guess I meant if it necessarily requires internet access to notify, how does it send the notification when it can not reach the internet.

I have uptime Kuma and use ntfy to alert myself for various things, but if I can’t access my server for any reason, the likelihood I’d be alerted first is very low.

How do you get alerted from uptime Kuma if you can’t access the site though?

It’s more like a new keyboard comes out and people all complain that it’s not a piano.
