If anything, it probably encourages more real sales from would be pirates who like their message.

For this project, that’s maybe intentional lol

The headline makes it seem like everyone’s been holding off until it was under 5 figures to get.

“Why can’t we get one?”

“Just wait, the price is falling, Timmy”

I installed it just because of this post and

Wow you weren’t kidding

Can confirm, kicked several objects and people while in VR, still unsure how many were real

Problem is Oracle sometimes just hates people, so declines all attempts to get the Free Tier.

I know from experience

Well deserved, haven’t play it a lot personally but friends are very much still raving about it after playing for 20+ hours, so well worth it.

I believe back when it was in beta a good few years ago, it was a remote PC, but now it’s only whatever games are on the service, with more added about every week via licensing them. You do, however, bring your own games, that part is right, just you can only play the ones you own that are licensed to be run on it.

As someone who took maths in university for two years, this has successfully given me PTSD, well done Lemmy.

To echo what others have said, I’ve been running a personal/friends only matrix server for about a year, and have found it, though difficult at first, to be stable enough to use as a universal messenger combining discord, messenger, WhatsApp and others in one app. It’s very convenient.

A VPS is a Virtual Private Server, basically a cloud computer that you rent access to and can use it for whatever you want. Primarily, people use it for hosting websites/services that need to be on 24/7, which it can be since they are typically in massive datacenters, but they can have other uses.

Not an answer but noticing you username and the question do not go together at all threw me there, respect

Can’t tell if I like the bird or hate it

100% agree and am baffled at the lack of remote play for any network, since that’s something that would make this product a lot more worthwhile, though still at a premium I can’t see many people paying for.

How to unsee meme

Honestly, right now it’s Overwatch 2. Probably Stockholm syndrome at this point, but the game can still be fun to just jump into for 30 minutes for me.

Agreed, I hoped back into it a week ago just to try it out, and felt as balanced as it was, so no complaints

For something such as PiHole, your main machine may be overkill honestly. It can run on literally potatoes (or raspberries). That being said, if the price of keeping your machine on is not an issue, it's perfectly reasonable to run something on it whenever it'll be needed. If possible, potentially a smaller computer like a Raspberry Pi may work for this, or even a small online VPS (cloud server).

Hey, it’s been a while, but just wanted to say that following this fixed my instance, and numbers are now normal again. Thanks! 💛

I’ll do the same :D

…accurate

...I made it xD

Really good game, but the player base is quite small so this is understandable

For me, something like PiHole for DNS-based Adblocking, as well as potentially a Wireguard/OpenVPN installation (via PiVPN potentially) for an easy adblocking VPN combination. Depends on the available bandwidth, however, but some lower powered applications, even up to a small personal Matrix Synapse server could be viable on 1GB Ram if not abused.

I use them essentially like folders of chats, similar to discord having many rooms in one server, so I for example have a space for External Servers (I.e federated chats in other homeservers), a Personal space with chats only I can access, etc.

Mine, though it says 202 users, is only actually 2, me and a test account, cause it got botted due to me leaving open registration. Luckily found out about 10 seconds after it started, but still, annoying. Though yea, just myself on here for now. :D

It's kind of the same thing as a Raspberry Pi/Mini PC, though can be seen as more reliable (since someone else is being paid to make sure it doesn't, or you and potentially many others will complain), as well as typically being very scalable if you require more power later down the line, as opposed to buying hardware for yourself. There's many other reasons, but those are some of the main ones.

I still haven’t, but I’m going to right now! :P
