I joined Plex a little at the end of 23, but only really started adding content early last year. I’m sort of glad I didn’t buy the lifetime pass, given the recent changes.

I’ve been able to share it with so many people (including tech-unfriendly family members). I guess we’ll just have to see what happens next with Plex, unless jellyfin becomes easier to set up for us less experienced home server folks…

I’m out of the loop, what did Devolver do?

Why can’t we have both?

Nice write-up as usual. It’s embarrassing seeing Jobst lose that defamation suit. We all would’ve loved to see Billy Mitchell be humbled a bit. But yeah, Karl did sort of misrepresent his case to his audience.

I hope they get their money back from getting shafted during the Direct.

This is where I’m at: a Synology running a few services like Plex for my family and friends. I’m hoping to learn more and help us all move from walled gardens even further. Some of Synology’s software can feel a little clunky to use but generally I’ve found it to work great despite my limited knowledge.

Shit, you’re right!

I second this opinion. The parties responsible absolutely need to be held accountable but due to the severe nature of the crime you absolutely have to protect yourself.

My devices are cringely named after songs in Haken’s discography.

Desktop is MESSIAH. Laptop is AFFINITY. Phone is NIGHTINGALE. Steam Deck is SHAPESHIFTER. Router (and its WAP) is PORTALS. My NAS is the only one that falls outside of this, it’s generically (last name)NetNAS. I should rename it, but I don’t want to break anything 😅

Eta: changed my NAS’ hostname is ARCHITECT. Nothing broke! Yay for me.

Likely answer is just some fucking assholes. There are some real garbage people in gaming communities.

The jokes in BL/BL2 felt like their own unique jokes, contained within the Borderlands universe, because they were. BL3 had a lot of reference humor, which can be fine, but some of the memes they referenced were 3-4 years out of date and the jokes fell flat and made us groan.

The trailer for 4 was promising, and I only realized on a second watch that it contained no jokes, which honestly I appreciated. I think it has potential, as long as Randy Shitford doesn’t do anything to fuck it up.

Or it’ll be cancelled and never see the light of day, just like that other Sims-like from Paradox.

I just got a deck last week and I’m loving it so far. Been playing Castle Crashers again (here’s hoping the new update comes out soon!) as well as Baldur’s Gate 3 with my wife, which runs incredibly well surprisingly.

If you haven’t played this one yet, I highly recommend it. Very good visual novel.

The writing is really awful but boy the gameplay is fun. It’s certainly the step up from Borderlands 2 that was needed (even though I love BL2 more in every other way)

One of my all time favorite games from a wonderful developer. Haley, my beloved.
