It's worth playing just for the Darth Vader slaughtering of Wookies, imo. But yeah, the rest is pretty bad.

I agree. I'm this case it works out for me since I'm under the 3 user limit.

From a new fan, I found that 3 had the coolest environment. New Vegas bad much better gun mechanics. And 4 is good, a lot better than reviews I read made it sound. And the Nuka Town DLC was a lot of fun.

I chimed in on the vote for Seafile on this thread. But I think it's worth trying NextcloudPi image to see if that does what you want. I've been presently surprised by how well it works compared to my experience with the AIO image.

Came to say the same. Unlike Syncthing, it all syncs to the server and only downloads to your various devices when you want it to. Vital for my small SSD on MacBook Pro. Syncthing can do similar but requires individually selecting files and folders to ignore, which I did not want to do.

Pseudoregalia is on sale and actually super fun. Sort of PlayStation 1 graphics with cool traversal/parkour with a thicc bunny/deer lady protagonist.

I yoinked Undertale and Fallout 76. I just finished FO4, before that was New Vegas, and 3 before that. Finally got hooked on Fallout after years of trying and just not jiving. The show motivated me to try again.

What's crazy is that I tried NC on my server, which is a HP Microserver G8 hosting 13 total services. And it ran like crap. Tried the standard and AIO versions. On a whim tried NextcloudPi on a Pi4 and it has been awesome! Web interface is still pretty sluggish but I use apps that sync to NC most of the time like:

• Quillpad for Google Keep type notes and checklists
• Floccus for bookmarks sync
• Deck for Kanban
• Gnome online accounts for desktop and laptop connection with documents

So far it's been flawless. I doubt it would run well with more than a few users though.

You can get a free Seafile Pro license if you create an account with them. Limited to 3 users, iirc. That's what I've been running and really using it to keep stuff on phone, desktop, and laptop reachable from any of the devices. I love it.

These laws don't help when it's insanely easy to install VPN clients on pretty much any device kids have access to. I have Adguard Home on our home network with the malicious and adult websites blocked. But still had a conversation with my kids about porn. And it turns out one of them had already been using a VPN on his phone and PC to bypass the local restrictions. We talked about it more, about being a good and safe "netizen" while discussing how unhealthy porn can be. I'm not anti-porn, but there is a lot of mistreatment of the people making it and can lead to some unhealthy misconceptions about sex and intimacy.

I played a little bit last night and had a bit of difficulty avoiding things with my "heart". Do you use the analog stick or the touchpad? I'll have to play with control settings tonight and see if I can not die so fast. :)

I haven't! I'm excited to see what's in store.

Ooh, I lost track of that one. I remember seeing the trailer but it was at least a year ago and completely forgot about it. I'll definitely check it out!

Micro Mages is so good!

I have. it's a solid resource. Was mostly hoping to some specific homebrew games to try before buying.

I did not know that. Might have to double dip. I have it on switch, but encouraging Linux game ports with my wallet seems worthwhile. Plus it wouldn't be the first time I bought a second copy of a game....

It needs to be!

I'm running Pop!_OS. I tried Mint and EndeavorOS. I found that I don't like vanilla gnome, and while I appreciate KDE, it's too Windows-like. Which is contrary to what I'm trying to do by switching to Linux in the first place. So Pop is perfect for me.

What a garbage take. Use what you want, homie.

Seafile is great. So fast, and unlike a bunch of these options, won't sync everything to each node. Everything is reachable from each device with a client, but only downloads what you want from the server. If Syncthing could do that without needing to do a bunch of "ignore" manipulation, I'd switch. But for my needs, Seafile is where it's at.
