I approve of that but I don’t know how it is a change? I have already been refusing to consider games because they have Denuvo listed.

Sometimes it is pleasant to defederate from an instance, especially if nothing of value is lost.

Luckily I encountered this while I was still in the return window. Goodbye. I will never buy another Microsoft product.

Oh, yikes, that does seem poorly-designed for the majority of use cases. Thank you for taking the time to write that up and recommend alternatives, I really appreciate understanding it better.

Wait, if not Matrix, what is a good software for this? I thought it was preferred for having an E2E encryption implementation.

That is why I wrote specifically “long dungeons,” yeah. Those are simple and short, all the same little floating skulls, maybe one treasure that is a mild head-scratcher to get at. The boss fights in there are barely distinct from each other. It feels cheap compared to previous releases.

They did put all those tool puzzles into shrines. But they are one-offs and simplified. It takes longer to find a shrine than to solve it. And too many of them are just “fight this same little spidery guy again.”

The whole experience strikes me as Zelda for people who hated the majority of the content in previous games.

BotW is just not a Zelda game at all. It is a very mid outdoor walking simulator with fetch quests. I don’t care about the breakable weapons, even. I want the collection of tools, the long dungeons with puzzles using those tools, and the bosses vulnerable to those tools.

Proxmox sortof mangles the kernel and I find it frustrating to use from the command line. (I have also blown off my foot once or twice.) I would use Incus instead. Incus doesn’t require its own distro, so you could install it on an immutable distro.

If I were purely running VMs that didn’t need access to USB hardware I might go with XCP-ng.

Is the answer not chattel slavery?

AFAIK the government cannot take it seriously because the board of the FEC, like the Senate, is 50% Nazis: https://www.fec.gov/about/leadership-and-structure/

Thank you! It sounds like a really interesting tool. I’d like to have a VPC sort of setup for my devices that I can connect to externally. I don’t think I need the mesh aspect of it, I’d likely just have one VPN act as a hub. But I’ll definitely look into this more. If it does routing for IPs a bit more conveniently that’d be worth it to me.

That’s very interesting. Once you connect something to your mesh you can access the rest of the mesh by IP? What is the gateway in that case?

What do you have set up for mesh VPN?

But it seems like there are other easy distros with lenient requirements that don’t try to force Snaps and ads on their users.

The way Fedora has immutable set up allows you to layer packages on top of a base, and your home directory and etc are both writable. It might be less of a pain in the butt than you think!

I will be DIYing everything for the rest of my life because that’s apparently the only way to hire someone who gives a fuck.

Anything that keeps maps in local storage so you can use GPS while offline is somewhere between very helpful and lifesaving. Sounds like Osmand is in there.

Organic Maps lets you download also. I got it specifically for backpacking because it enabled that. It certainly has been worth the $0. I should probably donate something each trip.

That kind of contribution seems like a lower level of effort than making changes to source code.

But that is literally why we have many of the definitions accepted as standard today.

The sheets in the motel room, that’s insane. A while back I read something like a stalker caught a reflection in someone’s eye at a train station, that’s horrific enough. But I would have thought being indoors is relatively safe. It is like impossible to put out video content at all without being vulnerable.
