Which highlights how dumb that setup is (by which I mean using cookies for settings). The privacy-friendly search engine compromises your privacy with AI when you use a private browser

Metroidvanias are at their core based on having areas closed off without specific abilities, while open worlds are about having the worl not be closed off. I don't see how you can make a game that attempts both without failing at being good in either domain

But who knows, maybe it'll be a Breath of the Wild moment for the series.

At least Zelda was already pretty close to open world with most of their entries. Metroidvanias don't really work as open worlds as a genre

Yeah, the bike section looked horribly boring.

And even though there's some classic 1st-person gameplay, we all know Nintendo is going to push for tons of traversal on the stupid motorcycle, which will kill the vibe for the whole game.

They specifically mentioned multiple questlines breaking and blocking progression in addition to several smaller bugs yet they still gave the game an 8/10. I get that IGN reviews are the softest of balls to hit, but that's ridiculous for even them

Nintendo's patent lawyers should be reported to the bar association over this. These most recent patents are atrociously bad and could probably get the lawyers sanctioned

To call that dumbass palworld AI SLOP

Found the Nintendo fanboy. How do them boots taste?

Give eternal passes to Sony and Microsoft, but the pikachu/Mario guys are the villains…???

Obvious red herring. People yell about the bullshit Sony and Microsoft pull all the time. Have you ever considered that all 3 are shit?

You are calling me the "dumbass", here? 😅 Both logic and philosophy say this perspective is wrong

If you've ever taken a philosophy course you'd know you're completely full of shit.

Your whole comment belongs on r/okbuddyretard. Not that I should have expected any better from a Nintendo bootlicker

Yet it doesn't seem to negatively effect the score

Nintendo is suing Palworld over patents they filed AFTER Palworld released, and said patents are so broad that many other games also technically violate said bullshit patents. Nintendo is the one in the wrong.

Eat my entire ass, bootlicker.

Though I'll admit that secular organisations rarely have the knack for creating the kind of organisation that churches have

That's because secular organizations generally aren't looking to make giant cults that they can coax 10% of their income from

I wouldn't. IMO there's 2 options: they're lying, or they're lying and they're dangerously crazy

I got this cart racer a few days ago and ended up spending a whole day playing. In terms of mechanics, I think it gives even newer Mario Kart titles a run for their money, plus it has mod support so players can make their own tracks, characters, and vehicle options. And the base tracks are nothing to scoff at, they work for both novices and speedrunners, with parts of the track unlocking as laps are completed

Over the past few months I've been thinking about what would be the best way to help me and my parents improve privacy and data storage.

With all the posts with cluster PC's recently, I'm wondering if the best option is to make a couple of NAS's with Raspberry Pi's with RAID, keep one at my place and another at my parents' house, and syncing their data with 2 private folders: one for myself and one for my parents.

But that opens up a few more questions. How to sync the data to match? Syncthing? Kubernetes? Should I go ahead and add Nextcloud to the Pi's? Should I make the Pi's expandable so other services can be added later, or plan to hook up a separate Pi to handle that? What else could I be missing?

 

As the title suggests, over the last couple of days there's been an influx of doomer comments over the SKG petition. While it's fine to disagree, I'm finding it suspicious that there weren't comments like this posted a week or 2 ago

 

Currently getting my first media server set up, and I'm wondering what the best directory would be for all the stored files. For reference, I'm working with Ubuntu server to follow the guide I'm using.

Mainly, I'm wondering if I should migrate /home/ to my RAID array, or leave /home/ where it is and create a new directory on the RAID array. Currently the server will just be for my use, but might expand it for others to use

I'm looking into building my first NAS/Jellyfin server, and one thing I keep wondering about is whether I should try and make it work as a Sunshine server to stream games to my TV via Moonlight.

On my current desktop, I mainly do this for emulated games or former console exclusives. That being said, I'd rather not use my desktop as a server, hence wanting to cram it into a NAS/Jellyfin server. Is this a good idea? Or should I drop it and keep the media server separate?
