I’ve felt that the introduction of micro transactions was the beginning of the end of videogames. There is no reason to push boundaries inside of an industry as an artist when it is so heavily commoditized down to your basic attention in seconds.

I think maybe we need a little history to understand how we got here from gaming meaning gambling, to pinball, to “video” gaming, to Electronic Entertainment as a whole to realize where the boundaries are supposed to be.

Deceptive business practices need to be put in check. Consumer protection needs enforcement otherwise there would still be lead in everything you touch.

Who needs artists pushing boundaries when it’s legal to sell heroin.

Came here for this comment 😄

This definitely seems like open AI wants to use us as a botnet to scrape the net for them.

This is a trash take.

The thing LLMs can effectively replace is Google search (and other search engines). Microsoft is shoving copilot down your throat because shoving Bing up your ass was harder when it was already full of other shit.

Ironically they blame their own children too

It kinda looks like an interposer

Altera has been selling the Cyclone 2 for a minute now. I have DE10 nanos and MisterFPGA systems. I’m curious to see if the cost of something like the Agilex is going to go up or down and if we’re going to finally see it in retro emulation.

Not verified, steam deck players = free beta testing.

It’s free real estate.

I keep recommending BazziteOS but Jorge Castro over at the universal Blue project has a really good point “Most people don’t install their operating systems” and that plain fact is what stops people from moving to Linux.

Valve has momentum because they are selling you a system with the OS already on it. Sell more gaming PCs with pre installed Linux on it and the support will follow. Valve’s first attempt at getting Linux based gaming hardware out there failed but that didn’t stop them and the real push is coming this time.

If you do install your OS (most people here have once or twice), try Bazzite out. I’m running it on the minisforum Bd790i with a radeon 7800xt and it works great!

Cool. I was just looking to see if someone had a guide because I’m trying to understand the pitfalls of doing it this way and I’m curious if anyone else has opened up Jellyfin to the world.

Does anyone have any helpful guides on setting up jellyfin with a certificate so they can privately host it while also keeping it secure and up to date? I think if using docker it would make sense to use compose and configure traeffic proxy and use let’s encrypt for certificates.

Plex takes care of this for you with their cert and authentication systems. I feel like if user management and secure authentication is easy to set up then that is the primary reason to leave Plex. If I can just hand out accounts to anyone whom I would like to access my instance with ease then my family members could easily access it.

If one was to host from the home, using something like tailscale to host it online with forwarding a port would also be ideal.

Thanks

I just want to make sure I read this correctly. It says that if you’re a Plex plass holder already that remote streaming changes won’t affect your service. This means that if I have the lifetime subscription and host my own server than users whom have not payed for Plex pass can continue to access this server without issue correct?

I saw this movie this weekend. It was ok. There were a lot of missed opportunities and unexplored plot points. The film consistently stumbles just to keep the pace up. It had enough story to be a limited TV series but it was condensed in a way that made it feel rushed. With that being said I enjoyed the acting and cringed actively as I watched on in horror at what effectively is unironically already the world we live in.

This is True. I spend most of my gaming time on Bazzite with a 7800xt Nitro+ GPU. Works great 10/10.

I’ve bought two AMD GPUs in the last two years but I still have three Nvidia GPUs that I use. The cost of moving everything over to AMD is high so it just takes time to get rid of old hardware as a best case scenario.

Honestly this is exactly the product I was waiting for minisforum to make. I think this is actually a pretty solid move.

I met Bob Camp once and told him how these images of Ren and Stimpy are burned into my brain from childhood. His reply was “We call them Gross-Ups!”.
