...What? This is Redis. Linux doesn't really benefit from this (aside from being an OS that can host Redis)

Maybe look in the settings. There is a hotkey option to save the last X amount of time (where X can be customized)

I have no experience with Windscribe other than that I recall looking into them when I was personally looking to replace Mullvad.

All I can offer is that their pricing is pretty much on par with ProtonVPN, who I have found to be very solid.

Proton also has a free tier, though I'm not sure how well P2P works on it.

difficult and/or illegal.

I don't think using a VPN gets you out of the illegal part, lol.

...okay, but how is Quest 3 usage not the same as Index usage? I'm not sure the comparison really makes sense.

100%. They're the only ones making a decent rotisserie chicken these days, and it's only $8!?

$10-20 is what that VPS costs at a cloud provider. You could also dockerize and use a container service like GCP Cloud Run combined with cloud storage within that budget.

I'm not a big node guy, but I also kind of doubt nodejs would fail to handle 10RPS on 2gb of memory. I guess it all depends on what the requests are doing.

Average FPS in the benchmarks I'm looking at seem to be 30-35, with 1% lows around 25. Sounds pretty standard for many console games. Especially handheld (switch Zelda games run at 30fps with huge dips, no?)

I use a VPS from RackNerd for all kinds of things (my personal Lemmy, for one). Have had it for two and a half years or so with no complaints.

Nothing like castrating half of the family tree because of that one time your brother tried to break up your empire!

You can just enter a fake Microsoft account and password. When it doesn't work, it gives the option to continue with an offline account (or at least whatever version I installed did)

Mostly just poking fun. It came off as an odd flex (laughing at people who choose to pay for media) while also repping software that has features locked behind a paid tier (a subscription, at that)
