Why are the ARR a bad idea for a VPS?

Yeah storage suck on mine but you can get a seed box for storage and run the apps in the VPS. But that’s another subscription.

Have you considered a VPS?

I have one that is pretty basic but works very well for about $4US a month. Mine runs Ubuntu 22.

As a consumer we can use our choices where we spend to lead companies one way or the other. Spreading the word to not buy something is “doing something about it”. How effective it may be here in Lemmy, probably not very much, but it’s something.

The issue is that there is only 1 industry. And the end goal of ALL developers and companies is making money. The more the better. When other pools start seeing that pissong in the pool leaves them more money, than they ALL will start designing their games around this. It is this design choice that will infect pretty much all other games. The precedent it sets affects the whole industry.

And like you said before, the only way this is not an issue is if it does not generate additional money for them so that no other pools try to imitate. And this will only happen if nobody buys them. And this post is trying to dissuade those buyers so that this does not become rampart and then all games have it.

Extra credit for correctly using affect!!!

I think the analogy is that it sets a precedent. Now the other companies see how you can pee in the pool and folks are either cool with it (buy) or are on the other end (not buy but meh). Now the pool standard is piss filled pool and we will never have a chance to get into a clean pool anymore.

If you want to take a swim you have to do it in a pissed soaked pool because we never complained or did anything about it.

You have my ax!

This looks really cool. A proper metreoidvenia + prince of Persia action. Let’s wait for reviews, but keeping my eye on this one for sure.

So I used bings chat bot to summarize the article to the same length as the other bot and this is the result (you be the judge) :

!Carlos Vasquez, also known as Rattlehead, is a professional gamer who relies on sound to play Mortal Kombat. Carlos, who is completely blind, started playing video games at the age of six in 1992. He was diagnosed with a type of glaucoma when he was 11, which slowly took away his sight. Carlos relies on hearing the specific sounds of the characters to make his attacking and defensive moves. He is able to pick up on the distinct sounds of the characters and use them to his advantage. Carlos found that most mainstream games were almost impossible to play without gaming accessibility features. Back in his 20s, Carlos was able to play some fighting games, and in particular Mortal Kombat, because he was able to pick up on the distinct sounds. For example, he recognised that the character who started on the right side of the screen would grunt at a slightly higher pitch than the one on the left. This allowed him to work out which character he was playing¹.

Weird list…

My money is on Baldurs Gate. Haven’t played it but the hype is real. And this is a public vote so…

Nicely said! I had the same feeling but just didn’t know how to put it into words.

Every single person I know or meet uses WhatsApp. About 90% of the businesses I interact with use WhatsApp Businesses. My whole family uses WhatsApp.

Moving to another system is going to take a lot a lot of work.

Say it with me… M O N O P O L Y

That dude with 800 hours saying it’s OK lol

This game is a solid 10. Really addictive and balanced. Very well done.

Man this looks awesome. Such a great idea to get Omni as guest character in MK. Fits perfectly.

I have a water container I need to take care of in my house. An ultrasonic sensor hooked to my raspberry 3b uploads the collected data to my vps that later serves an html through Flask to show the water level. It has a few alarms so that I can take action at the appropriate time. The ultrasonic sensors HC-SR04 suck and I have to replace them quite frequently. Other then that it works really well.

I played the first one pretty much at launch and I finished and liked it a lot but the backtracking killed it for me. It was just way too much walking around ignoring mobs because I had fought them so many times every time I walked back to town. I know they fixed this somehow on later patches. Hope they bring along all the QOL updates the first one got.

This was pretty funny. Very well acted. Subbed.

Question: If I were to buy a PS Plus Essential subscription code for 12 months, how would I be changing that to premium? Would I be charged after putting my code in? Do I now have two different dates on when Premium ends and when essential ends?
