It’s about the data. It’s always about the data.

Oh cool! A search engine that’ll give you fake URL’s!

Yeah I’m not going to hold my breath. They might just add the EA app back in after an update.

Oh no, what ever would we do without the tweets from game developers? How How will clickbait articles survive? On the plus side, they’d get a lot less death threats for updates to their games. And we wouldn’t have a new news article for every fucking tweet that gets made.

I edited my original post right when you replied, my bad.

I dunno if you can do that much remotely, honestly. I kinda feel like something might have corrupted? What kinda system are you using? Any more details you can provide?

Does your router have an app or way of letting you remotely see if the server is even showing on your home network?? It could be a physical disconnect or Ethernet port failure, or NIC failure maybe? A reboot wouldn’t help if the issue was related to something like that.

Edit: Actually, re-read your post and thinking about this again, what I said wouldn’t make sense…

You could have some sort of corruption causing an error in the appdata, preventing it from running. Might be a RAM issue.

You could ask instead of taking a stealthy photo… You do know how to talk to people, right?

Yeah I don’t get the argument either. Sounds like some Microsoft-bros not wanting to see a 3rd option for OS’.

I get that. And I self host the things I care about. But for the average layman? I don’t see self hosting as a real option. Unless you are decently tech savvy, and have an aptitude for troubleshooting, most people aren’t gonna put in the time or effort of initial setup. Even if maintenance is minimal once it’s running. That first leap into self-hosted is daunting.

I think of it this way… would I expect my dad to be able to do it? Absolutely not. And my dad is decently tech savvy for 70.

Don’t think they mean sharing data. I think they’re referring to sharing an equally regulated digital environment. That could totally be done without sharing info, but following equal practices.

Really at this point, the lack of regulation is already killing the Internet. Google search isn’t search anymore, it’s ad delivery. Reddit and Facebook are ‘news’ for a huge majority of people. Amazon is essentially the only online retailer people have available, and where other options exist, Amazon uses it’s leverage to make those other experiences just a bit worse. All of these companies use their size and monopolistic weight to prevent competition and by extension worsen consumer options and create worse experiences.

The digital market is doing what any market does, just a lot faster.

I have been using my LG OLED TV as my gaming monitor as well for about 2 years now. Haven’t had any issues with burn in on mine. I run the pixel refresh utility once every few months, and typically don’t play a game for more than a 3~4 hour stretch of time, so I think I get enough screen variety that it hasn’t been an issue.

If you haven’t run the Pixel refresher tool, try giving that a go for a few hours and see if it helps with your burn in. It could just be ‘stuck’ and not actually burnt.

As far as the LG, I mainly picked it for the VRR and 4k120 HDR support. Games look great, and It’s also my main TV for movies, which also look great.

Helldivers 2 on higher difficulties has me hitting 15fps sometimes. It’s so damn tough to play on steam deck because of the quality, but it’s honestly amazing it runs half decent at all.

Tbh, part of being steam verified requires booting directly into the game and not going to a launcher for the game. So this does get them over that hump.

I’m happy the options are still available at least, as somebody who’s currently using my steam deck to play Fallout 4 at 1080p on a TV, I need to be able to modify the settings when moving between playing on the device and on a TV.

Yeah I’ll be picking this one up.

I almost feel like making shitty mspaint versions of popular Nintendo game box art and upload them to steamgridb to use unironically for my library.

Not familiar with the nextcloud side of things, but I just pulled all my photos from Google photos and imported them all to Immich. I’d imagine if you just have a folder full of images, it’d work the same way. During the Immich setup, you can designate an import folder. Point that import folder at your photos folder that you want to bring in. Once you have Immich up and running, you can use the terminal and run an import from the command line on that import folder. You’ll have to make an API key for the CLI to use, but you can make that in the settings. Immich doesn’t currently support mass importing from inside the UI, so this is the only way I’ve found to do it. The import ran fast for me though, went though 125gb of photos and videos in about 5 mins.

I’d hope so. It ran fine before.

Doesn’t work for me. I tried this with my little brother after setting up family sharing. He used to be able to play my games on his account when I wasn’t playing. Now he can’t even do that anymore. Family sharing sucks now.

Just you wait. They’ll offset the tip with a “Driverless vehicle delivery” fee.

For real. My server always finds media within minutes of being posted. Granted I primarily use Usenet, and only BitTorrent as a fall back, but even still, piracy has never been easier for me.
