Graphics are out of this world?

Oh I’m not in search of a game, but I appreciate the offer. I’ll take a look at what it’s about anywho, though. Thanks stranger.

This is excellent publicity that convinces me not to even try that game.

Does it have loud, annoying, drunkard camping neighbors that you have to slaughter at 4:46am because your character will crash his campervan the next day if they don’t sleep?

Escapism in this world? Imagine that…

I use one of those coax/Ethernet converters in my house. It’s a 2-story place and running Ethernet was going to be too daunting for a room.

Overall it works very well (I had bad experiences with using network over electrical power). The only thing that will be a downer is the gigabit coax converters seem to be expensive. Since I just had 1 client in an isolated network, 100mbps was fine for me but would hamper your NAS throughout. You’d also need to buy 2 sets of converters for your use case, so that’s potentially not cheap if you’re wanting gigabit from end to end.

Some of the newer wireless standards are very quick, but you’d also need to ensure all NICs are compatible and a newer AP wouldn’t be free.

Perhaps talk to the landlord about splitting the cost of getting Ethernet professionally run in all rooms. It may be the most cost effective solution, but the drawback is you walk away with nothing. The landlord would be able to advertise Ethernet ready infra, so there is some benefit for them to do it.

I wish them luck! Working with passion is the best kind. Hope they are able to maintain it.

FO2 was my favorite game for a long time. Something about the mix of starting out tribal and the way you progress, the bozar, and the wide variety of endings was great.

I got access and you won’t believe this… It’s a game centered around a big pound sign and then two players take turns placing X’s and O’s. First one to get 3 in a row wins. Dude, this is gonna be totally revolutionary.

I agree on Minecraft. For that play style, it works.

Just as long as they don’t hop onto the procedurally generated bandwagon. While I appreciate the attempts at making unique gameplay while focusing less on level generation, those types of games end up making me feel like a hamster on a wheel.

The lesson for those folks selling out to Microsoft? This can never be undone.

I looked everywhere in the box, but didn’t find that color.

Yep, I’m speaking in generalities. Overall, my point is that a homelab doesn’t need something expensive because it may not be heavily used, so most of those features are not necessary. If the guy had mentioned running a business or customers, that’d be a different story.

You even had to qualify your own statement that one has to modify hard drive power consumption to achieve acceptable noise levels.

I had a SIEM running on a mini-pc like a champ. It cost me fifteen bucks and taught me a lot. Build to requirement, not title.

Bear in mind, a system that is built to be a dedicated server will be meant to crunch data. That means 2 things:

• loud fans

• heavy electricity use

If you just want a lab, I suggest getting a desktop PC and loading a server OS on it. Practical hardware experience isn’t too valuable because platforms change and they usually make them super simple to maintenance with lots of online support. Getting a desktop will also save you some bread on initial investment.

Ah the days of counting your action points and watching that first uzzy crit make a raider dance. If only we could get all of that artwork remade in 4k…

Is it me or do they always promise backwards compatibility and then find some cockamamie horseshit at the last minute on why it just wasn’t possible. I might be a little scarred from previous promises (not specific to Nintendo).

But are you sure?

See, what they need to do is update the graphics on 1 & 2. I would definitely replay those, bugs and all. Bozar was of course OP but the way it was so story driven was excellent.

The only issue is the potato graphics.
