I always find it perplexing when people around my age from the US are talking about technology that I still consider as current and use regularly as if it's this ancient artifact from times gone by that some people have nostalgia for lol.

If only they made it in Source Engine instead of UE5. I tried playing this earlier via Proton and even with some tweaks, all the fancy graphics stuff turned off and everything set to medium/low it runs at a somewhat choppy framerate and has massive input lag :/

Thanks for reminding me why I don't frequent hexbear much.

I've been playing through Augustus/Casar III off and on. I'm currently stuck on Procurator. I like a lot of genres, but my absolute favorites have to be RPG and RTS City Builder. But only the ones that are more complex, where the player has to manage the economy, plan production lines, allocate labor, etc..

I don't really care about AAA games (anymore) but whenever I feel like it I'll watch TGA out of curiosity and because I find the cringe funny.

Not really anticipating anything in particular for the next year. If somehow the new FNaF game turns out to be decent I might get that, but judging from my personal experience with anything post FNaF6 I don't have any hopes or expectations. EDIT: I've been hearing some rumors online that apparently new Half-Life game is in development. If true, I'm really looking forward to that.

Sounds like classic troll behavior.

Based Unbound. Great DNS software.

Based. Fuck Apple and their iShit.

I know right? It's there almost every single time. Why? It's not like it hurts us in any way lol.

I haven’t checked out the state of HURD in a while but possibly that as well

A couple months ago they released an aarch64 port of GNU Hurd and there seem to be at least a couple people working on it.

For smaller binary files it's fine. I use it for my desktop wallpapers. For large binary files there are a bunch of extensions out there like git-lfs or git-annex. Vanilla git can handle binary files up to a few GB IIRC but it gets unusably slow when you throw multiple large binary files at it.

Can't stress this enough, especially if you're a server operator! Any data that doesn't exist in at least 2 different places should be considered volatile. Also keep in mind that the "cloud" is just someone else's computer and shouldn't be used for backup, since you have no control over it and it requires a working Internet connection to access it. Better to get an external USB 3 drive with enough capacity to fit all your most important files; They're relatively cheap (especially HDDs) and last a long time (my personal one that I got years ago has 48524 hours on it as I'm typing this and it's still perfectly fine).
