I guess I’m a dummy, because I never even thought about this. Maybe I got lucky, but when I did restore from a backup, I didn’t have any issues. My containerized services came right back up like nothing was wrong. Though that may have been right before I successfully hosted my own (now defunct) Lemmy instance. I can’t remember, but I think I only had sqlite databases in my services at the time.
I use it most days, even as a PC/web browser connected to my TV. I play any classic games or anything not graphically intensive on it. Anything with a medium-level of graphical intensity I’ll use moonlight to stream from my desktop in the next room over. If it’s a particularly beautiful game, I’ll play it on my gaming PC directly, since I have a really nice OLED monitor hooked up to it directly.
I have a 9-5 job as a software engineer. Though really I can stop working whenever I’m done with my assigned work. I usually stop around 3 or 3:30.
Very nervous for this game. The Stars need to be better if they are going to stand a chance against Edmonton.
As today is the beginning of the third round, and there should only be one game per day from now until the end of the season, the bot is going to be making an individual post for each thread instead of having all of the games be comments on a combined thread for the day.
Thanks, I’m considering not. People here are very unwelcoming and elitist. Even more so than reddit, which is impressive.
Exhibit A: All of Lemmy. Seriously, this entire place, especially this community it just controversy and outrage. It’s so boring.
Mega Man Maverick Hunter X and Mega Man Powered Up are my two favorites.
Disclaimer: I’m a huge Mega Man fan.
I think we should rename this community “gaming controversies” because that’s all that’s ever discussed here.
WOOOOOO!!!
I respect other people’s choices in what to consume, and I expect the same respect in return. I have no problem with people being vegan or vegetarian. In fact, most people I work with are from India and are vegetarian. We eat lunch together most days and no one has any problems with each other.
Unfortunately most vegans I know are extremely pushy and judgemental about their diet/lifestyle. They do not respect my choice in what to consume. This used to causes some preemptive judgements on my part, where I would get defensive immediately about my dietary choices, because I assumed they were judging me. Over time I have learned to control this reflex.
I can only assume that many people have had the same experience as me, and jump to the same conclusions.
I read that the devs didn’t make this choice. Apparently Sony did.
That’s a really interesting thought. We do still have issues where we get like Ken then Terry (or Mii Gunner then Mii Brawler) back to back, and for people who don’t like that type of characters, its a bummer.
Each character having a list of groups that they belong to, then not allowing players to play a character in the same group consecutively would probably be a huge improvement. I would need to be careful to make sure too many characters aren’t excluded, though. It would be tough to get right, but I think it would be really good.
I made a random character selector app for super smash bros that makes you play through every character before it lets you repeat a character. And it won’t let two people play the same character at the same time. My friends and I like playing random characters, but we kept getting the same characters over and over again, sometimes even in the same colors (online only). I got frustrated one day and made the app.
It definitely livens up our game nights.
I have heard an idea floated around that the companies that make these types of automation devices would pay massive taxes on them, and that tax would pay for UBI. I’m not sure how the math works, but to me that sounds like the ultimate endgame. Then we can all enjoy our lives without needing to do tedious or backbreaking work.
If by “a while” you mean 1 month, then sure. There were tons of conspiracy theorists saying that the world was going to end on April 8th due to the solar eclipse.
Different strokes, I suppose. I have never cared for graphics in a game. I don’t care today, I didn’t care when I was playing Super Mario World as a kid. I care far more about gameplay, tight controls, and later in life I started caring more about good narrative. The best looking game in the world wouldn’t keep my attention if the controls felt like garbage, or if the gameplay was just plain boring.
Mine are named after fictional robots, computer programs, or AI. It started with my wifi being GLaDOS for 5 GHz and Wheatley for 2.4 GHz. I thought it was funny that everyone could immediately tell that Wheatley was the slower one. Over time, I continued the trend. My gaming PCs are named after characters from the Mega Man X series (desktop is Zero, laptop is X, steam deck is Sigma). My macs are named EVE and WALL-E. My server is named Sibyl System (from Psycho Pass).
I don’t care much who wins, but I think it would be cool for McDavid to break the points record. It would almost be cooler if he broke that record and lost, because that would be a really fun trivia question.
