I don’t use Luna, but this matters to everyone: Amazon is removing individual purchases and streamed access, and that’s simply the latest example of how “buying” digital games, films and TV now often means temporary access controlled by platforms.

I ran compsize on my debian box. Most files on my btrfs drive are around 20 GB. Almost all are uncompressed. I have 6000 files and 221000 regular extents.

Is that too much fragmentation? The ideal case is 1 extent per file.

I am reading around 100 MiBps from the drive out of a theoretical max of ~119 MiBps on a 1 Gbps line.

edit: On a local read I am getting 130-150 MiBps which exceeds the 1 Gbps network. pv /path/to/file >/dev/null

Today’s game is some Twilight Princess. I went and got the Master Sword today. I have to say it’s probably one of my favorite Master Sword pulls. It’s still no Ocarina of Time (the soundtrack and ambience leading up to it just sells it for me) but it’s close. I didn’t really care for the little mini boss before it though. It was a lot less exciting.

After that I made my way over to the Arbiter’s grounds. It’s a very chill trip up there surprisingly. I was expecting something a little more action heavy but outside that desert part it was chill. I didn’t really care for that temple though leading up to it. I’m not sure what it was but it just felt like it was there to gate the Arbiter’s Grounds.

Also: fuck this puzzle in particular. Absolutely miserable. I hated it. Maybe I’m just tired but it felt like floundering about until I got the right combo.

Anyways, after this I’ll start the Arbiter’s Grounds puzzle. I’m hoping I’ll make quick work of this one and won’t put it off a bunch like the last one. We’ll see though.

I want to migrate my photos from instagram to pixelfed. Is it possible to modify post addition date? Or only way is to self host own instance and modify on database?

If it the only way, I would be happy to donate to existing one and ask admins to change dates… I dont see the point of creating new one

I want to start with self hosting something available from internet. Currently I have jellyfin, nas etc but everything is available in local network.

My biggest concern is securing local network. I thought i will run application on separate server, I will use small vps as proxy, but Im not sure if it will be enough

Just a little article from me today. I've been enjoying a few cyberpunkish things recently:

• Psycho-Pass
• Dark Rain
• Cyberpunk 2077

...which reminded me that there was a semi-recent effort at bringing the classic Blade Runner PC game from 1997 to a new era of gaming. It didn't land very well (everyone hated the smoothed graphics nonsense they did for it), but on a subsequent update they did fix that.

Anyway, that recollection led to me installing it on my OLED Switch, which then made me appreciate the atmosphere and environments, the beautiful backgrounds and so on. The backgrounds in this game are truly top-notch.

SO, if you'd like a little rambling about how Westwood went against the grain when 3D gaming was really taking off, and instead focused on a point-and-click adventure, then follow the link as per usual:

Why would they want to speed up conflict resolution when they can keep the money for every person that gives up?
