That’s me as well. It’s night and day.

I think at this point I still prefer D3 to D4 (maybe also nostalgia?). I do think that D4 will improve given enough time, I’m hoping. But it’s sad that I paid full price for a game that, not only is expensive and has battle passes but will have yearly expansions on top of it.

I’m not made of money blizzard…

EU is usually very pro consumer but not long ago there were (and there still are) some shit takes on piracy and stuff.

I don’t think they’ll ban VPNs though. It’s not pro consumer and it’s anti-privacy which EU is also very strong on.

Both. Sim card for my country’s provider. eSim when I’m abroad for cheaper rates.

Great redemption but they did close the servers so I kinda feel like that’s a whole new game hahaha

Also, FFXIV has been great for a long time now I think… NMS had more incremental updates with improvements for longer I guess. Maybe that’s why that’s the first thing on my mind when I think of any game redeemimg themselves.

Nevertheless still an amazing improvement on FFXIV.

Impressive, but imo still not as good as No man’s Sky redemption.

I use it on steam, for this exact purpose. So it shows in using it. The more people are using it, the more people get aware of it.

If all these people downloaded it directly and not from steam, this post wouldn’t exist :)

Auto updates is interesting, didn’t even consider it, but it can be both a pro and a con I guess…

Yeah I must say vulkan would’ve been sweet. But apple is big enough to mane metal work I guess… Time will tell, but I’ve never been closing to jumping aboard the apple train. Even though it kinda feels weird to me just thinking about it haha

I am a PC/Android user, always have been. I am a hard apple hater, I’ve tried to keep up with the new devices though, and I’ve also repaired them in the past. I hate apple mostly due to just not liking to be locked on my device (lack of customization but that has been getting better AFAIK), the fact that the phone feels boring, the overpricing, the not friendly right to repair, the stupid lightning ports (Thanks EU), the “elitist” feeling…

But god damn are these new SOCs making me reconsider… I was already very pleasantly surprised with the Mac computers recently. I think apple silicon is just waaaay ahead at the moment. If competition doesn’t catch up somehow soon, I think apple’s monopoly will only grow.

Also, AMD over Nvidia. Not saying it’s better, but I’ll always go team red. Just like Apple, I hate nvidia’s business practices.

Yeah, I’m honestly concerned since my parents’ political views changed radically the last 5~10 years or so. They were super loving and caring. Now they’re very “paranoid” about things that shouldn’t really leave them that stressed and xenophobic bordering full on racism. Overall gender related topics topics, random news on Facebook, immigrants…

I think that, if my parents that were so understanding and caring about everything and everyone, can somehow have their opinion change drastically in 5-10 years, what’s preventing that from happening to me, or my generation, down the road? I’m not trying to say that every gen X or boomer thinks that same way though. But a lot of them have grown more “resentful” I guess…

Yeah, computers and Internet aren’t their expertise so maybe they’re more likely to fall for fake news and clickbaity titles designed to infuriate them and generate views.

But who knows what’s coming? Maybe there’s something else coming up that my generation will be too “boomer” to understand. Maybe we’ll fuck up everything without even noticing we’re doing it until it’s too late. Maybe I’m just being too paranoid myself.

My parents are (early) Gen X. In general I don’t think you are transparent or ignored. I’m not saying this isn’t your case though.

I appreciate my parents and even though they are “outdated” on some stuff, I value them immensely. For instance, if it wasn’t for my dad I likely would never have gotten into omputers. And that would’ve led me not have my current job (probably). I owe everything to them.

In fact, in my country at least (not US), I’m pretty sure Boomers + Gen X make up the majority of the voting power due to declining birth/death rates. (These stats are 100% pulled out of my ass, so they can very well be wrong.)

So, if anything you’re the ones who hold more power (again, in my country at least).

What I’m trying to say is, things aren’t as black and white as this stupid memes make them seem. We’re all collectively messed up somehow. :)

I wonder if in the future, millennials and gen z will become the new boomers and gen X.

That will make me kinda sad. I just hope we don’t go down the same path…

I think I haven’t slept as little as these past few weeks. 🥲

Get off work, play NMS for 3 to 4 hours and have dinner. Join my brother for BG3 co-op. Look at the time and suddenly it’s 1am. Start getting stuff ready to leave only to get lost on some side quest… When I finally have enough it’s 3am…

Hey!

What do you mean you can’t co-op? I’m playing with my friend and we’re actually a party of 3

I’m on steam, he’s on gamepass on PC, and his SO is on gamepass on xbox. So considering all this madness works, I don’t see why you should have issues :(

Let me know if I can help you somehow :)

Currently playing Baldur’s Gate 3, 2 player co-op and it’s been an absolute blast.

Recently a friend started playing No Man’s Sky and I joined in to help him get started and give him some tips… Only to get re-addicted to it myself so now I’m split between BG3 and NMS 🥲

That’s a great question… But I have no clue if its exposed or not. The thing is, apparently they fixed it in a way that it should, in theory, work out of the box.

HomeAssistant should be running on 8123 if I’m not mistaken.

I’ve tried [virtual adapter]:8123 (not at my PC atm, don’t know the op by heart sry) localhost:8123 and 127.0.0.1:8123
