Thankfully, at least recently, most devices have settled on only a few standards. And some older devices can be modded to work with newer ports. I know rhere are some mods to add a usb-c port to the 2ds, and from what I understand they’re not too difficult to do.
True, but thankfully there are a lot of choices in that space, and it’s constantly growing. And if there aren’t, a lot of times it’s possible to make one (or buy someone’s) using an esp32 or similar. Zigbee, zwave, and matter devices should all be possible to run local only.
Absolutely agree. Bethesda games have always been “go fuck around and find random stuff to do” games to me and I’m having a lot of fun so far. I enjoy just “living in” the universes they make. It took me over 100 hours to reach the main stadium town in Fallout 4 because I would go off and explore waymarkers and make my own fun. And that’s a place you’re supposed to go relatively early in the main story, IIRC. I would certainly not call it a 10/10 because it definitely has problems, but none have gotten in the way of my enjoyment so far.
And I can understand why when you abuse the word “literally” like that. What you mean is that she’s figuratively Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter. /s
It may be more difficult than a relatively static price, but if they can figure out how to charge it, they can figure out how to display it. Any ISP sites I’ve used have you put in zip code anyway to view services. There’s no reason they can’t set it up to show the exact fee rates per area. I know you said you’re not defending them, but “it’s hard” isn’t really an excuse.
I liked them fine enough the first time through the game. But I absolutely loved that I could disable them for my second playthrough. More customization like this is a big step forward.
If I already had a Tesla I don’t know that I’d sell it because of him, but he was one of the major factors in me not even considering them when I was shopping for my EV. The other reasons being shoddy quality control, shitty practices, and dumb design decisions. All of which probably stem from him anyway.
The critic vs audience score divide is pretty telling for some movies. Ant-Man: Quantumania and both Venom movies come to mind as movies that were critically panned but had pretty high audience score. They’re nothing spectacular but still dumb fun movies.
You don’t buy a company for their servers or employees
Clearly he didn’t buy it for that either, since he chucked those out the window shortly after purchase. Pretty sure he spent billions of dollars to shitpost and create a safe space for nazis.
Stringing them along and wasting more of their time and money was the not a dick option? I’d say that’s the be more of a dick option. I’m all for walking out on a shitty job, but it sounds like their worst crime was not giving you as good an offer as somewhere else.
I use something called What’s Up Docker to check for docker updates. It integrates nicely with Home Assistant, so I made a card on my server state dashboard that shows which containers have updates available. I’ll check every so often and update my docker-compose files.
Agreed with this, they may want the setup but have no interest in managing it, no matter how simple you get it. If you do it for them you might be setting yourself up as their permanent support.
I’d gauge how interested they actually are, and make sure they’re willing to learn enough to follow basic maintenance routines.
I watched the video and what they showed certainly looks impressive. The level of detail in actions, variety of gameplay, immersive first person perspective, and visual details all look good. I hope the game looks and plays as good as what’s shown and actually releases sometime soon, but I’m not holding my breath. Even if you ignore all the baggage the game has, gameplay trailers to games still in development are lies more often than not. I stopped following the development like 8 years ago, now it’s off my radar until it actually releases.
