Most games I’ve played have had 3 or 4 players, which is about perfect for most systems. The one time we only had 2 players, we both rolled up 2 characters each and played them simultaneously. It was actually really fun!

I’m still learning myself, but am planning to use NetBird instead of Tailscale to access my VMs and apps without exposing them to the web. So far, it’s been pretty easy to set up.

This exact thing has happened to me on c/selfhosted. Made a post asking for help on setting up my storage for a proxmox vm and got a couple helpful replies before the mods removed it, simply because I failed to mention what software I was planning to host in the VM. Pretty silly, and I think it hurts the community by removing those helpful responses.

Remember when Newegg was cool and going after patent trolls?

Is Mordin Solus from Mass Effect 2 morally gray or horrible?

I’ll check him out, thanks!

I haven’t, but will give it a shot. Thanks for the rec!

The movie this is from is Miracle Mile, and it’s so good. I encourage anyone in Los Angeles to watch this at least once.

That helps, thank you!

Thanks for the clarity! I’ll give this a shot when I get back home.

“Okay, you can put your clothes back on now.”

If I recall correctly, the game already had plenty of auto-pause options that essentially made combat turn-based. Am I misremembering?

Bookwyrm has been fantastic at cataloging all of the books I don’t read! Man, I miss having an attention span.

You son of a bitch. I just spent way too much money thanks to you.

Is there any meat this man can’t jerk?!

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines I didn’t get around to playing this game until about a decade after its release, and I seriously don’t understand who could find that game enjoyable except 13yo edgelords.

I feel like dancing! Wiped my SPI, installed the OPi Debian to my eMMC using dd commands, and I’m back in business.

I give it 1 week before I break it again trying to do something stupid.

For the uboot, I think I tried both of these: https://github.com/schneid-l/u-boot-orangepi5 https://github.com/orangepi-xunlong/u-boot-orangepi

I’m not sure what exactly changed, I used the same SD card, the same OPi image, used Balena Etcher to burn the image to the card… this time it booted into the live image from my SD! It’s a start!

Now I’m just trying to wipe my SPI of UEFI, reinstall uboot, then do a fresh install of Debian and try again with PXVirt.

I actually think it’s a better deal if it’s missing the battery and priced accordingly. I’d much rather buy a fresh replacement battery myself than rely on the iffy battery that comes with a used laptop.
