It’s a desktop tower. People are sad when I offer monitor KB and mouse for $20 more.

I’m thinking of bumping up to $50 so people can feel better about talking me down to $35. I don’t like to play games, but people seem to care more about getting a deal than a fair price.

Yes, I have a basement full of computers with no storage. The plan was to put 120 GB SSDs in there and sell them for $40 each. 1: That’s no longer possible. 2: nobody wants to buy them for that price.

No confusion with audrino.

There appears to be many wireless options available. While there is no off the shelf option available, you may be able to automate connecting to the Wi-Fi of the cam and pulling the files from a Windows share. From there, you could put the files on a share for a service like photoprism.

If the only way up interface with it is through an app, and you don’t have an old smartphone to run the app, then you could consider running an android emulator.

Are you buying a cam or borrowing the same one? If you are borrowing again, you know the model? That will help us give better advice.

No, she needs it.

She’s a hobbyist photographer, so she does take many pics. I’m planning on setting her up with storage space on the NAS. Also, clearing her chart history was a big deal.

That’s why my wife wanted a new phone. It’s a s21+, so the only upgrades with more space are $$$. Anything free is the same size. We transferred her photos and it was full again in a month.

She had to go delete her old conversations to make significant space.

I work in IT. People will often casually dump their hardware because it’s now working the way they want.

Mechanically, it would make a great hack and slash like Devil May Cry.

It could also be fun if done well like The Witcher.

Sadly, for every success like The Witcher, there are 20 Wheel of Time games.

I think I might have one I can’t use. Might be 2 TB.

I bought it as an experiment to use with my NAS, but my SAS card is running in SATA mode and won’t recognize it with an adapter.

If you or someone wants to have me ship it to you (you pay postage and send me the pdf for the label) PM me.

Hah, if you are near Cincinnati, I have a system with 6 SATA ports I just rebuilt for $30.

Look, if you were looking to have more options handed to you, you are in the right place!

TrueNAS is a great diy option. I have it running on an old box of mine. The one real caveat is that you will need enough hard drive slots (don’t just hang them unless you go full SSD), 4+ SATA ports or add in a SAS card, enough PSU to handle all your drives, and enough memory.

I am running one SAS card and 16 GB of DDR 3. Since the attached image I have taken pics of the serial numbers and labeled the drives.

Wow, this is a GameStop ad dressed up as news.

Also, buy 2 get one is fine, I guess.

CS 2026. Comes with the latest dossiers on real operators. Features American terrorists.

I’ll be excited to play it when yuzu2 is released.

Not taking piracy, as I have purchased all my switch games. They just play better on PC.

Actually, you could totally have demand for that font set.

I was considering how copyrighted material can still be generated after writing that, so fair. If you fed in work a and made the same modification to each piece then it would just be a modified work a and not actually new work b.

I hear you, and that was my first thought reading through the article.

According to TFA:

While games using English can rely on system UI fonts, cheap commercial fonts or open-source options, the sheer number of characters used in Japanese means high-quality fonts are extremely difficult and expensive to make, so few affordable alternatives are available. This is what made LETS an important service, but its revamped pricing and limitations have now put it beyond the reach of a good chunk of developers.

Maybe there are alternatives out there, and I think a crowd sourced open font would be a great idea. I personally have no idea how to go about organizing a project of that scope.

Also, tbf, my answer was more emotional bitching than a serious take.

I will gladly replace dishwashers with dishwashing machines if they are energy, water, and cost-efficient, but I don’t believe we are discussing artisan dishwashing. This borderline association approaches sophistry, so I think it is much better to discuss the use of art and the corporate hoarding of artwork.

Monotype does seem to pay font creators well for royalties.. My frustration is the aggressive pricing models, the growth of monotype to where they own the whole market (per tfa), and the way they are demanding payment for fonts without checking to see if there is an existing license..

Basically, I will encourage and pay for fair business practices. Squeezing people for cash pisses me off. I’m not knowledgeable enough to pretend to create a free font set in this manner, but I would advocate creating tools that would fuck up the market. Open fonts would be great, but again tfa says that it’s too complicated of a data set for that, and the market is too small for independent artists.

Lastly, my answer wasn’t a valid solution. There are plenty of legal and social hurdles to it.

Not a fan of generative works, but this seems like a clear place to use it to fuck shit up.

Nih.hira.term.aigen.ttf Nih.katak.term.aigen.ttf Nih.kanji1.term.aigen.ttf Nih.kanji2.term.aigen.ttf Etc

Not the fault of the prompter if the resulting fonts appear to resemble licensed fonts, which are often slightly different copies of each other anyway.

Generative works cannot be copyrighted, so it would forever be in the public domain.

The only drawback would be that you would have to announce that you used slop in your game.
