You’re right. on both counts.
my main PC hosts nothing, everything else is always on
sometimes I remember I’m self hosting things
my scsi controller needs to be entered during boot to manage raid. it also has an external battery that needed replacing (which cost more new than just buying a new card … with the exact same battery) so if you’re not in verbose boot mode figure that out and see if the controller is telling you which function key it needs.
figuring out this old stuff is most of the fun in running it, I would sell it as scrap before actually hosting anything on it.
I have a HP Proliant DL380G7, basically the last server with a front side bus, and all the comments about it where about power per watt.
and they’re not wrong.
I just don’t think this is the community for old servers like this, self hosting is very much a practical consideration and the money spent on electricity running anything useful on these old things is better spent on a raspberry pi or stand alone NAS or something.
I use Wayland instead
if you’re running a single instance of a game it’s already there. (I multibox so fuck me I guess)
if you’re waiting for native support it’s a chicken and egg scenario, your best bet is to switch asap and show developers there’s a market.
they don’t bother me
probably because they would have to back down of pretending they require specific hardware I’m not going to buy.
so I can read full colour comics on an e-ink e-reader then?
the day will eventually come that I need to replace my kindle and I assume e-ink will be full HD by then.
Honestly if an e-reader doesn’t last you decades you’re doing something wrong.
believe it or not, right to jail, right away.
I got my first mac a few years back off the side of the road, a 2009 imac that didn’t work. I went to a lot of trouble to find and install the most up to date mac os I could get on it for the challenge and because I’d never used a intel mac before.
Believe me, they absolutely did just flick a switch. everything about steam worked fine until the day it didn’t even load up. removing support is one thing, actively bricking your product is a total scum fuck move that is just common practice in gaming now.
are we still tipping our landlords?
I multibox a certain game and that is something proton simply can’t handle. It’s only designed with a single game in mind so each instance runs it’s own layer which quickly eats up resources that are never freed up.
if I’m ever forced to upgrade my base system I guess the first thing I’ll do is try my game in a windows VM
software as servitude
How many diverse representational check boxes are drug out on the street and shot so they can sell their uninteresting dross in China?
They don’t have values they have a marketing strategy; and it’s because of that marketing strategy that those check boxes are totally 1 dimensional, boring, and replaceable.
Actual diversity doesn’t look or feel like a personal attack.
Go watch She-ra and tell me the gay dads aren’t integral to Bow’s character and try to tell me that isn’t the exception to the vast majority of cardboard cutouts whose ONLY character trait is a single DEI check box.
You just made an enemy for life
