It actually means a lot for average people. Only because you are not able to comprehend some things, does not mean you are not affected by it. But feel free to keep on using Windows XP.
Yep, I know, that‘s why I was looking for people who are the owners of the trackers and just need someone with decent bandwidth. Other than that it is just a game of patience.
Yeah, I will keep on using usenet and just would use torrent as a supplement or additional source. Mainly only interested in movies/shows and games. But to be honest, I don‘t mind seeding other stuff for a couple of weeks, but will eventually have to delete it to save some space for the things I really want.
Maybe there are some screenshots on some old IDE drives or chatlogs of IRC, but I‘d have to invest a lot of time with low chances of finding something useful. So please, don’t trust me blindly. I know that trust has to be built first and that private communities can be fragile at times. So your questions are very valid and relatable :)
In Switzerland, the ISP Init7 is offering all their connections for CHF 777.- (USD 861.-) per year and you just get the maximum speed, which is currently 25/25Gbps. This provider is well known for fighting for net neutrality and being against any censorships or mass surveillance. I just love them very much and wish that other countries would have such awesome ISP‘s as well.
Technically yes, but I don‘t have the nerve and time to manage it properly and I wouldn’t want to host a mediocre service. Also legal stuff etc is making many things complicated.
Then I‘m still curious what kind of provider you are talking about, because I simply don’t understand it. Could you maybe send me a pm with the name of it?
IPTV - I use a UK centric provider that costs £30 GBP every 3 months (Equivalent to 10 GBP a month). This gives live TV (sky), Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime and a few other bits and bobs in this price. You also get a backup stream so if the primary goes down you can still use your IPTV.
First of all, thanks for the effort you put into this guide, this is super helpful for a lot of people.
What do you mean by „This gives (…) Netflix (…)“? With IPTV you just get an MPEG stream. But with Netflix you want to select the media you want to watch. So how would that work?
I understand both sides. Busy people love to save their game at any point in time, as they might get interrupted. But I also understand the point from the devs and I also like it sometimes when I cannot save constantly.
Obviously both sides could now be less stubborn. Busy people can just pause the game and resume later to just exit the junction and the devs could implement a quick save feature.
Dear game designers, how about you let the user decide what they like most, a very easy or hard game? Usually with difficulty settings, only damage/health numbers get modified. But you could also enable quick save in easy mode, and disable it in hard mode. Take a look at the difficulty settings of Grounded. Easy to implement and you automatically reach a bigger user base.
And while we are at it, busy people sometimes cannot play games for a longer time, let’s say 4 weeks. After 4 weeks I have forgotten all the controls and game mechanics again. TV shows play a recap if a new season comes out. You should do the same. A super short introduction of what happened story wise and how the controls and game mechanics are working.
Oh, usually I‘m very sensitive with things like that, but have not noticed any lags/stutters and I‘m someone who immediately sees when the screen is below 120Hz. I use Garuda on my gaming pc and Debian Sid on my old Acer notebook, both with Nvidia GPU‘s. Hopefully they will release a fix soon. Did you already try nouveau? Or KDE 6?
Thanks for this very helpful response. The way you describe it makes absolutely sense and I will use this as a guide in the future.
