  • Honestly if you're comfortable with Linux I just built my own at this point, but if you're not then obviously don't take my advice

  • Also played Oblivion years and years ago, and I can agree and think you put it best. "It turned out as well as it could have". Because to anyone complaining here, any and all changes anyone here suggests the team obviously thought the same things, but there is obviously a balance. Change it too much and hardcore original fans are pissed. Don't change it enough and new fans are pissed because it's too old. No matter what people were going to be unhappy. Gamers are some of the most negative people I've met.

    I see a decent remaster, I see gameplay and motions have been updated, I see a lot has been updated without changing the core game too much. It turned out as well as it could have.

  • I feel as though the combat is much cleaner in my book. Yes it's based off a 20 year game, it's not going to match the witcher in sword play, but it's not annoying anymore to me.

  • Beyond selecting a proton version it was no more difficult to set up than any windows game. Deck hardware I've heard issues with, but I'm not surprised. The deck is essentially a mid level right from about 8 years ago. The remaster struggles on my 3090. I was finally able to get 60fps after tweaking graphical settings for a while, but none of that was because of Linux.

  • It stored passwords in a csv what do you mean I was hacked?!

  • Whoops I zipped them up and put them in a few s3 buckets and kept it on my computer. Oh no, well, you know there's so much that goes in what do you expect.

  • Upvoted, I hope someone can help you here. But also a bit of condescending, it's been solid as a rock for me on linux :D But, seriously hope you figure it out, it's frustrating having a new game not work

  • Let's hope other studios get worried. We do have power if we all collectively work against a company.

  • I loved the first act. It was so much fun to be there and run around. Then I was so disappointed when the second area opened and I realized oh, so I just... Do the same thing again? Like exactly the same? By the end I was just bored

  • Seconded, only pain do you find. I even tried with an exfat drive on the side, but that had it's own pile of headaches. Don't try to. Perfectly fine dual booting, but just pick and choose on Linux until you're reading to fully switch.

  • Definitely. They talk later about how it's one of the largest breaches of trust walking in on someone's use of it.

  • Unfortunately true. Still worth calling out though IMO

  • God I'm getting sick of the repetitive posts saying the same thing. I'm a human being. I run an instance. I am personally liable for whatever crap my users post. Damn right I'm not going to allow Tor or vpns, and my instance will absolutely take down something if it could land me in trouble. I'm not going to have the feds bust down my door because someone wants to make a bonkers statement.

    That's the joy of federation. Anyone can go and spin up their own instance. There are cloud providers that have a single click option to set one up for you. Go forth OP, be the privacy focused VPN tor instance. You take the personal responsibility on yourself and then come back here and post about it.

  • The problem exists of how do you get files to the server. Again for a big video file you need a place to have the original accessible for the entire duration of the transcode, and you need a drop point to place the file when it's done. And if you're doing that, more than likely you have something like Plex or jellyfin, so why not just hook it up to your existing file locations?

    I run jobs all the time from my cluster, but the issue always comes back to persistent storage. Where are the files you need to act on, and where should the finished results be placed? You're trying to skip those important steps here.

  • I'll ask the question why do you want something hosted, if you don't want the files to be on the server too, or at least accessible via a mount. There's a couple projects who do that for a reason, you can't just upload an 80gb video file through a web interface simply. For home use it makes more sense for it to be connected to some sort of nas and you point it to the file on the nas, and then point where on the nas you want the output file.

    As written, I don't think you'll find a lot. I think what may serve you better is finding a server solution that watches a directory and then runs transcodes based on pre defined templates, and spits them back out in a known location.

  • Holy yikes batman. That's a lot of trust and open ports right there to the public internet. Not to mention running a tor node is incredibly risky for the hoster personally. Individually these projects are good, in one bundle I'm heckin suspicious.

    Edit: it's just a relay node at least, but still, this is targeting inexperienced people to run a bunch of containers, and I don't think the risk is fully explained there.

  • No, they were only in talks. MS does not currently own discord.

  • People are trusting Discord way way way too much
