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.

Pray I do not alter it further...

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.

Have you tried acquiring the file from 'elsewhere' (see megathread)?

I have been using copilot inside VSCode for about a month. That thing is useful. It really does cut back on programming time. The help you get from this thing, although not 100% accurate, is mostly accurate enough to get you unstuck and keep moving. It is really useful. I have paid 1 monthl at 10$US. It is totally worth it for me and my usage.

I really hope I don't have to start paying twice as much for the same experience.

Ok. This one I like. I felt the cozy scene. This is what art is about. Connecting to what you are seeing in a level that only you understand. That is why art is subjective. Only you know what makes you tick.

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.
