I'd love to see a modern mmofps, I can't think of anything coming close to Planetside on that front.
That said, I mostly did TR flash zergs when running solo, and VS C4 fairies when my friends were online.
We all kinda dropped the game after the Combined Arms Initiative was rolled out and removed the need for vehicles, as heavies were stronger than MAXes and could solo pretty much all armor without breaking a sweat, and we could break up a hours-long tank line stalement using a sunderer and 3 Archer-equipped engineers. (Multiple tanks and some infantry peeled off to stop us, but we could kill pretty much anything with 2-3 salvos, usually before they found us. The sunderer was mostly just to get there).
I do already use DD-WRT in my home network, but these were meant to provide a network-on-a-budget out in the field, aka. a stand-in for professional solutions which other people should be able to set up too, so I wanted to modify them as little as possible.
WiFi extenders do technically fit my requirements (and I've got them working mostly successful), but, as far as I'm aware, mesh is specifically made for the purpose of having a seamless WiFi device transfer from one tower to another, and where one can form a circle or "spiderweb" pattern with the signal taking the best (distance/speed/reliability) route back to the router - which is what I need.
Ubiquity seems to have gained traction lately, so I'll throw them an E-Mail whether their devices are too smart to be usable too.
Yeah, I even wrote TP-Link an E-mail about this, but they wrote back that that was just how the device worked, that they could not recommend any of their mesh solutions which could provide a stable WiFi connection even without internet, and that they obviously couldn't recommend any devices from competitors.
My image of TP-Link might have taken a hit as result as I believed this to be a fundamental and implied feature.
I'm also looking for a good WiFi mesh, preferably one that can be used with IoT devices (aka. Even without an internet connection).
I tried TP-Link Deca, but the mesh refuses LAN communication if the router doesn't have a constant and stable connection to the internet - A feature I previously believed to be given - making it unusable for IoT and for providing WiFi at remote locations.
The Deck is a pretty nefty device. I used it for half a year as a daily driver, which included everything from gaming to light embedded development. I've also used it as a ground control station when flying my legacy drones, or as a relay for my main rig when tinkering on unhandy equipment (such as accessing my cars OBDII from the warm living room).
I've also tinkered with secured storage on the Deck, but found that LUKS needs the Deck to be unlocked (note: All of the above can be done without disabling the read-only system). I found a somewhat functional workaround using rwfus, which makes an overlay on top of the read-only system, on which I then can install packages such as veracrypt. I also tried NIX to this end, but found it to be way too much work to learn to use proper for my usecase.
And while not really anything mind-bending: I'll be spending the next few days in our summerhouse with my sister to celebrate 'Fastelavn', where I expect to bring my Deck and a Steam Controller for some evening Kingdom 80's co-op.
"Is this 'Critical Error' the reason for the crash, or just another ill-labeled exception?"
I love WINE and it's forks, but man, how can any program produce so many errors during optimal operation? (A rhetorical question, as I believe we all know the tragicomedic reason being Microsoft)
Is that in relation to DHT? Never got quite into it, but if you're using a tracker then I'd imagine the tracker would handle the peer2peer reverse NAT problem.
There's a reason I don't use Spotify. Well, there are multiple reasons I don't use Spotify, but one of them is because I live in an area where stable cell tower connections aren't a given.
I'm a little confused by that statement. Where should locally installed (non-sudo) applications, such as virtual python envs who are accessed by multiple other not-necessarily-python apps or perhaps baloo, flatpak, etc, store their shared data? I'm rather convinced that giving all users write access to /usr/share is a terrible idea.
I guess I should thank you for demonstrating how I'm twisting your words by doing the same?
"Is a woman’s unfertilized egg a baby?" <- That's a trap? Of course a woman's unfertilized is not a baby, nor is a fertilized one until born, since that would usually be defined as "embryo" or "fetus" (if being all pedantic). Though, a woman's unfertilized egg is an "animal product", as is a slice of meat.
Now, I've chosen to use "meat" as a synonym, or over-category, for "animal products". I realize that this generalization might be important for some, so let me apologize for this apparently vital oversight, I'll try to cut it out in cardboard from now on.
Regarding your statement about morals, as I've stated before, the hyperbole would be meaningless if the creator (of the hyperbole) wouldn't find any truth or parallel in it.
I've read your statement as "No vegan would ever say: You're eating meat animal products, but that's all OK!", just a whole lot more demeaning and in perfect spirit of the original post.
And once again, to really cut it out and prevent these misunderstandings of mine, I read your statement as "Vegans will not morally lower themselves to omni standards (edit: /Ethics)".
If this was not the intention behind your words, then I will gladly stand corrected.
That would have been the first statement: "Vegan here, bottom left is a very small but sometimes very loud minority."
That second statement (about the religious killings) was specifically for why finding compromise is not possible for regular vegans. Even if it was a hyperbole, it would be meaningless if not sincere.
"Are eggs meat?" - Yes, that's what I'm saying, I'm not sure how it can be understood any other way.
Though, how can calling somebody a murderous cultist not be considered the least bit demeaning, whereas saying their family should starve is? As per "You wouldn’t say „... I do respect your religious tradition of human sacrifice“" having similar aggressive or demeaning meaning as "I don’t care if your family starves".
Since we're simply talking about being unpowered for a while, wouldn't a simple full format fix/reset all ECC errors? No need to scrap the drive.
Surely a cap/transistor temporarily losing charge shouldn't permanently destroy it!
Anyways, HDD for 6-24 months offline data storage, SSD for always-online data storage, and flash if you're a masochist like me.
