Same, but a lot closer to 2 decades. But I still pickup humble bundles from time to time. Now i finally have a device to go through them.

I have the OG deck, 64GB self-upgraded to 512, and don’t have the Asus one. Ally wasn’t launched back then but there were quite a few Ayaneo ones.

My thought was this, I’m not sure you’re old enough to live through iPod days, but non Deck ones seems like the non iPod mp3 players. There were plenty of choices, cheaper (at least per GB). But 3-4 years down, when you simply need a battery replacement, which one do you think you can the replacement of? Or just look at accessories, cases, skins, etc.

You can get hundreds of performance comparisons all over youtube, I personally don’t think it matters as much. You’re not going to maxed out all the settings on either. They both can play recent games pretty well.

I’ve been using https://utteranc.es/, same concept but using Github issues as comment. This is interesting, especially if there’s a way to handle each user’s instances.

That is an odd take, I mean, if there are still new games release on Switch in 20 years, then sure? Switch definitely has better chance on having newer games than DS in those time frame.

The reason for my question: I don’t want to own obsolete hardware in 10 years.

In that case, why not wait for the next gen? I have my Switch since 2018, I think, it’s still the first gen one, that can be modded without hardware. I’ll continue play it as long as there’s a game for it. The only way to have the most time of a hardware is to get it when it’s new, right?

Paying somebody for streaming film and TV shows that they have no hand in producing, and thus not supporting new productions — same as I can download for free myself? — that makes no sense to me

It makes sense for me. The one i’m using is $20 per year. I just think of it as convenience fee. It has netflix features but for all movies and tv shows.

unless you stay permanently offline, but at that point you might as well just mod your Switch anyway.

I feel like that’s the point of this cart. Hard modding is near impossible for most people. The choice is sending your switch to random person to be modded, which I doubt it’ll be cheap. Or just get a flash cart.

None that I’ve found has anything close to SponsorBlock for youtube, in theory it could work, even SponsorBlock has open issue for it.

The problem is, a lot of podcasts are using dynamic ads insertion, which means the ads are added on the fly when user download an episode. Ads length could be different from person to person, and there’s a possibility of empty slot too, where the podcast unable to sell the slot. “We’ll be back after this short message,” and jump straight into the next segment. No ad.

Gmail to MXroute when Google threatened to pull the grandfathered free Gmail custom domain thing. Got their lifetime plan, easy enough to configure so outgoing mails don’t get marked as spam. However, the major downside is it’s still using Spam Assassin as spam filter.

Downloaded Control from Fitgirl, but turns out I already have it on Epic.

It’s not obsolete, it’s very good, still is. Just that Flask and Django both built on top of Python. So if it’s like late 90s or early 00s. Definitely before either Django / Flask. Python isn’t the new and thing of 2022.

Isn’t Wordpress powering like 40% of the internet? PHP isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

For me the weirder part of that meme is Python in 2022?

Weird, I don’t have that. Free user for years.

Is the free version of Spark not good enough? What paid feature you need?

I signed up for MailRoute lifetime* account when Google threatened to pull the grandfathered free workspace account.

It’s fine, I email using Spark everywhere anyway. Spam filter could be better. Other than that, everything is back to normal.

You’ve got it. it’s the setting in the server.

By default, it was on “internet only”

Thank you, and everyone for responding!

Personally, I’m just using Simplenote. Just the other day there was this post.

“Where do I find servers and bots and pack numbers?” It’s as easy as using a xdcc search engine. http://sunxdcc.com/ has both a search and a list of networks. (DCC is Direct Client to Client meaning no files pass thru the server and XDCC is a version of DCC that allows large files to be transferred.)

Thanks for this. Was on IRC since before Napster, Kazaa, etc. Torrent was the one that took me off IRC. Nowadays I just don’t know which server and channel to join.

I have a dated opinion, it’s probably still true, but compute power is much cheaper now.

If your player doesn’t support the format, Plex will transcode it on the server – which is extremely slow if all you have is just a junk pc as server, while on Kodi (or what I personally use, Infuse), you can use any file server, like smb, and they’ll just play. No fuss, any lags will definitely be a network issue.

It has browser extension for Firefox and Chrome, iOS and Android app. On Mac it can even unlock the master password with touch id.

Personally the android app could be a lot better, although I’m not sure if it’s the app problem or just how Android handles password input from another app that needs fixing.

If you’re comfortable around *nix stuff: pass. Open source, free forever, you can “host” it with Github private repo.
