Like can we make this a more vocal opinion that Triple-A studios/publishers are like legally required to offer a version.. Or what is your take on that, especially if you have a similar opinion with a deviation in execution. let me know why if you dont agree too!

I'd love to have and collect DRM free titles that last even after a platform is gone, also ubi cant pull off clown shows like the crew or whatever racing game they just erased out of power tripping spite

I'll start by plugging Harvard's free courses catalog as well as Udemy

Edit: Gonna add 2 more I remembered-

Blender - I wish I had more time to learn it, but I did start the infamous "Donut Tutorial" once!

Watch Cartoons Online - Lots of good older stuff!

A friend from Argentina once told me Argentina keeps its best wines for themselves and exports the mediocre stuff, even at the sake of profits.

Similarly, a friend from Turkey once said he couldn’t find good Turkish olives outside of Turkey because “Turks are terrible businessmen and keep the best olives to themselves.”

These are anecdotal and might be untrue but I liked the idea.

At an individual level, it’s irrational to cooperate in a prisoner’s dilemma yet experiments show people cooperate.

Contributing to open source projects may fall into this category.

Have you observed any obvious behavior that goes counter to profit maximization? Any cool examples?

For some users, the Google Search app on Android is sending out a new style of Weather forecast notifications...

I found my old GameStop receipt from 2006 in my GameCube games.

Man this brings back memories of simpler times.

the company’s Android app, which offers not only search capabilities but also acts as an AI assistant, is riddled with a host of security issues that could expose its users to data theft, account takeovers and impersonation attacks from malicious hackers, according to a report by India-based mobile security company Appknox. One of these gaps also lets anyone access Perplexity’s API for free, exposing the company itself to the risk of losing revenue.

You may remember the origins of the mystery: a fake story from a dodgy source published by the JC last September. The article, under the byline of Elon Perry, echoed the talking points of Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and was alleged to be based on documents uncovered in the Gaza Strip.

It all turned out to be rubbish. After Israeli journalists exposed the nonsense, the JC announced an inquiry. The very next day – 13 September – the paper concluded its “thorough investigation”. A two-paragraph statement offered no explanation of how it had come to publish such manipulated tosh but assured readers that the paper “maintains the highest journalistic standards”. Phew. Just imagine if it didn’t.

The Leveson Inquiry sat for 100 days, produced a report of around 2,000 pages and cost around £5m. A new regulator, IPSO, was the main outcome – a body with supposedly more bite than its toothless predecessor, the Press Complaints Commission, and the power to launch investigations where there are patterns of editorial concern. It can theoretically fine publishers up to £1m.

In fact, in its 10 years of existence, it has launched no standards investigations and fined no one.

You would not guess from IPSO’s most recent statement that the successful mission to plant a story in the JC appears to have owed more to black ops than rota mishaps. Indeed, there is nothing at all about the massive Shin Bet inquiry into the affair, or the political background in Israel.

Lord Austin takes a keen interest in the BBC’s coverage of Israel, recently demanding that executives who oversaw a recent much-criticised Gaza programme “should be sacked for very serious professional and moral failings”. But of the professional and moral failings of the JC he has to date said nothing.

I've been on and off playing witcher 3 the last couple months. Just got to the skelliga main quest where Yennefer tells Geralt to get out of his armor and wear something nice to some social event (which btw doesn't make sense, my armor is way better looking than the tunic options). It reminded me of the quest where Triss asked the same thing so I decided to check online if doing so would ruin my Triss romance.

Only to learn that I had already failed the Triss romance because I picked "We can try again" instead of "I love you" when she was at the harbor. Up until that point the vibes between Geralt and Triss has been "we had a thing in the past but it's no more" so I thought that option was right for getting them together again. I had assumed that had no immediate effect but was just one of many dialogues that eventually lead to romancing Triss but nope, that was it apparently. Much discourse online about how there used to be a bug that let you romance with "We can try again" but nobody's talking about how that's the more reasonable option.

And also I'm just now realizing that Novigrad was the Triss area and Skelliga is the Yennefer area and there will be many quests there to get to know Yen, which makes me think did I do Now or Never too early? But like, once you go to the party with Triss the city is just in chaos so I felt obligated to follow that questline to the end. Also there's the relative low levels of those quests and the way Geralt seemingly gets stranded in Skelliga when he travels there that made me think everything that's not a red skull on novigrad comes before Skelliga story-wise.

When I first heard that you need to choose between Triss and Yennefer in this game choosing Triss felt like a no brainer since she's been around the last 2 games and declares she'll never leave Geralt's side in the last one. And it rubs me the wrong way how Geralt acts all hot around Yennefer unprompted but doesn't act warm around Triss even if you try to. I get that Yennefer was his wife or whatever in the books but like the last 2 games still happened and in the beginning even Yennefer says Geralt and Triss had a nice thing going.

So do I go back to end of now or never and change the answer? Do I go back further and leave novigrad when it was in chaos? Even further before the questline began?

But also also while looking up how to not fuck up romance I read that apparently Yennefer's endgame quest is amazing and Triss's is an afterthought.. and I do want to play the good quest instead of the bad one..

In my journey to self hosting and Degoogling, one thing I've missed is being able to access my phone on a computer. Is there a self hosted solution that allows syncing between text messaging and a PC/web interface?

I don't necessarily need a sophisticated Features like customer management or automation. I just want to access my messages from another device, and of course have a server based backup. The ability to reply to messages from the computer is a plus but not necessary. Is there a good option for this?

While the original ZimaBoard shipped with Intel Apollo Lake processors that were already more than four years old at the time that the board launched, the ZimaBoard 2 is powered by a current-gen Intel Twin Lake processor that should bring a significant boost in CPU and graphics performance. The company says users can expect a 200 percent performance boost, even though the new model runs cooler and quieter and uses less power while idle.

I thought a lot about buying the first version of this. Glad I waited. Very cool. Homelabbers: have some gear lust to start your weekend. Happy Friday!

They brought them out front and center at my local supermarket, and either they are selling like hotcakes that are constantly being replenished.... or literally no one is buying.

This week has been a doosey.

Hey all. I'm hosting a Docmost server for myself and some friends. Now, before everyone shouts "VPN!" at me, I specifically want help with this problem. Think of it as a learning experience.

The problem I have is that the Docmost server is accessible over internet and everyone can log on and use it, it's working fine. But when I try to access over LAN, it won't let me log in and I am 99% sure it's related to SSL certs over LAN from what I've read.

Here's the point I've gotten to with my own reading on this and I'm just stumped now:

I've got an UNRAID server hosted at 192.186.1.80 - on this server, there's a number of services running in docker containers. One of these services is Nginx Proxy Manager and it handles all my reverse proxying. This is all working correctly.

I could not for the life of me get Docmost working as a docker container on UNRAID, so instead I spun up a VM and installed it on there. That's hosted at 192.168.1.85 and NPM points to it when you try to access from docmost.example.com - that's all dandy.

Then, I installed Adguard Home in a docker container on my UNRAID server. I pointed my router at Adguard as a DNS server, and it seems to me that it's working fine. Internet's not broken and Adguard Home is reporting queries and blocks and all that good stuff. So that's all still working as it should, as far as I'm aware.

So, in Adguard Home I make a DNS Rewrite entry. I tell it to point docmost.example.com to 192.168.1.80, where NPM should be listening for traffic and reverse proxy me to the Docmost server... at least I thought that's what should happen, but actually nothing happens. I get a connection timed out error.

I'm still pretty new to a lot of this stuff and have tried to figure out a lot of things on my own, but at this point I feel stuck. Does anyone have advice or tips on how I can get this domain to resolve locally with certs?

I can provide more info if needed.

Cheers all!

Edited 19 April 2025 to add: Thanks for all the tips and suggestions everyone. I'm not 100% sure I fully wrap my head around what was going on here, but I did end up getting something working. I am going to continue looking into alternative solutions if only for educational purposes.

For anyone in future land who stumbles on this looking for help with a similar issue...

I'm not 100% sure what did end up fixing the issue, but I'll remark on some things I did here. Check my comments in threads below to see troubleshooting steps and advice from others.

This bit is specific to Docmost itself, but I ended up switching the APP_URL variable from https to http. This change allowed me to login to Docmost over LAN using the IP:Port of the service itself, though my browser was of course warning me that the connection was not secure.

It may be just because I restarted my PC between tries, but upon trying it again tonight, the domain resolved when I entered it into my browser... but the issue now was that it was just going to the UNRAID login page rather than getting proxied by Nginx (which as a reminder, runs in a container on UNRAID system).

So I decided to spin up a different Nginx Proxy Manager container running in a VM on a different local IP, and pointed my Adguard Home DNS rewrite entry to that IP instead of the UNRAID system. Once I configured the NPM at that IP to proxy the address to Docmost's IP:Port, voila! It worked! My friends were able to access Docmost at docmost.example.com and I was also able to access it at the same URL on my local network, and we were using the service simultaneously without issue.
