I can’t speak to the others, but I have a couple 8bitdo controllers and they’re fantastic. If the aliexpress listing is legit, I’d go with that one, no question.
I’ve never heard of the other two brands, but cursory googling doesn’t sound promising for them.
Awesome, thanks!
This little thing looks very interesting. What is the battery life like? Is the handwriting-to-text stuff only viable in specific apps, or can it be used in place of keyboard input?
I would probably use it just like my Kindle, keeping it in airplane mode until I actually need to download something (or in this case, upload notes).
Oh man. That looks fabulous. I may have to give it a go some time. Can’t do it tomorrow, but one day soon…
I’m with you. Maybe it’s because I’ve never had truly good homemade stuffing? It’s always a weird, damp, spongy mess. But that box of Stove Top, ready in minutes? I’ll eat the whole thing by myself. It’s also great to have an extra box to go with the leftovers, especially for the sandwiches.
Just a cheap and reliable bucket to rsync my local backups to. I’m leaning toward Hetzner, but was checking out filen after your suggestion, too.
An over-complicated solution I was tossing around with some friends was to set up a cheap NAS at our respective homes, and just rsync to one another. Then we can just sneakernet the drives if we need a recovery.
I’m in the same boat, actually. I’m hosting at home, but want to set up off-site backups, and am looking for something cheap and reliable.
As for the actual process, rsync is probably the best method. I just need to find a good host
I know you can register a google account with an external/non-gmail account. However, you can’t transfer the workplace accounts, or reassign them to other things. Once you close your workspace account/subscription, they’re vapor.
If there’s a way to do it, that would be fabulous, of course!
honestly it’s baffling that I’ve spent 30 years on the internet and can understand so little of it
100% agree.
Honestly, I had to google it, too :D
As far as I know, they mean “Personal Video Recorder” in a fashion similar to “DVR”/“Digital Video Recorder” like the one your cable company provides. It’s a little misleading, imo, because it doesn’t do any recording, but I didn’t come up with the name, so who knows.
Sonarr (and the other 'arrs) is just a management tool. From the servarr wiki:
Sonarr is a PVR for Usenet and BitTorrent users. It can monitor multiple RSS feeds for new episodes of your favorite shows and will grab, sort and rename them. It can also be configured to automatically upgrade the quality of files already downloaded when a better quality format becomes available.
At a high level, you tell it where your current tv show episodes are saved, and add new shows as you want. It then automates the process of searching and downloading. But you still need to have an indexer and download client. If you’re not able to find shows searching your current tracker/indexer, Sonarr won’t have any better luck.
Finding a good source of the media you want is the most important part. If you’re not comfortable with installing and managing your own server applications, the *arr stack could be overwhelming at first. The wiki I linked has a lot of good information to get you started.
Unfortunately, that’s not an option. I’m going to continue using the same email address, and I don’t want to continue spending the $30ish a month for services and storage I’m no longer using.
This is the first I’ve heard of this remaster. Absolutely adore this game. And I appreciated the work Nightdive put into the new System Shock.
But seeing the screenshots for Dark Forces… it very much looks like a half-ass job using computer-assisted upscaling (possibly some sort of generative AI, too). I’ve played the original using DarkXL/The Force Engine, and I feel like Nightdive is just reproducing this (albeit with “new” cutscene artwork).
I would love to be pleasantly surprised.
Worked for me, too. Thanks friendly stranger :)
Seconding this. Frigate is great, and I’ve been running it on an ancient Debian box with a coral tpu for a few years. The only dedicated camera I’ve had has been at the front door, but cams I’ve used for testing and “goofing off” have been great at motion detection and object recognition.
Yeah, they’re a skip to endgame content. But they’re not any kind of “instant win.”
The couple types of pvp aren’t tied to your character level, and the most difficult raid content is best run with a group that you practice with. If you’ve never played, simply grabbing the game and one of those packages isn’t going to give you an immediate edge.
XIV is sort of a single player game with a bunch of coop boss fights.
And, not to be cliche, but you can play through the entire first two arcs (A Realm Reborn and Heavensward) completely free, with no real limitations. The only things locked out of the free tier are the more social aspects, and any content above level 60. A handful of jobs are locked, but there is a ridiculous amount of content available for free.
I’ve played a few other mmos and hated them all. XIV is something weirdly different. And the overwhelming majority of the community is chill and friendly.
I’ve been subscribed for a while. I don’t think I could ever go back to another launcher.
Combined with Tapet for subtle geometric wallpapers, my home screen is a dream.
The android tv app is why I switched to Emby. I mostly liked jellyfin everywhere except the one place I would use it the most.
A few of the fixes for things that strongly turned me off were added as feature requests, but the devs seemed to blow them off as unnecessary or “impossible” (even though the “impossible” is done in every other android tv app, including Emby). Their perceived attitude really turned me off of it.
