Having it open source, does not make it good. I think I'd prioritise making it fun, try to.make a profit, and then open sourcing it. I don't think having it open source will help you sell copies... you might sell less. Make your money first, have a feasible business strategy, so you don't go bust. Then try to keep the game alive vis open sourcing it.

I think we found it. Something worse than pineapple on pizza.

Others have done a good job at explaining what this is. Though, a quick tip.

If you’re ever unsure about what a component is, do a quick search for what those chips are. In this case, I see several Asmedia asm1061. In 5 minutes you should know more about that component.

Cloudflare is a decent service, with really good security. Plus, with their tunnelling feature, they’re helping to keep you private. If you just pointed your A record to your IP, that’d be visible to everyone. Instead, your A record is just visible to Cloudflare. Plus it’s handy if you’re using them to forward a bunch of services onto the net. Not to mention all the other security features you can use. DNS records by design, are not private.

Swing alignment to Evil. Prepare a Children of the Corn adventure, themed to fit the particular patron.

Depending on your server, and how you install you might have a bad experience. I’ve had issues where it wasn’t finding the film/series metadata, having plugin issues, and being incredibly slow (slow UI when anything is being done, slow scanning folders, slow loading saved metadata, etc). Jellyfin, like a lot of open source software, feels like jank. The devs know about a lot of issues, but they’re swamped with so much, with this big of a project.

People criticise Plex, rightfully so with some of their bad decisions, but it still works better. For me, Plex runs so much better, and without issues. I won’t be moving away to Jellyfin in the foreseeable future, but I’ll be glad when I am able to.

Yes, I would. Worms don’t get workers rights.

Honestly, I don’t even remember it being that funny. I haven’t gave it a second thought since its release. The power of social media marketing, I guess.

If you’ve never seen Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, I’d encourage you instead to take a look at Shaun of the Dead, and Hot Fuzz, both really good movies.

I mean… welcome to the internet. It’s not just Reddit, but most social media, and some “news” sites.

Due to its proprietary nature, finding software that can properly read those files can be tricky.

LibreOffice is the usual go-to for folks wanting an office suite, that respects privacy, and FOSS. It can read docx files, but it can mess up formatting. Still, for many it’s the preferred choice. It’s got the best reputation.

Now if formatting REALLY matters, take a look at OnlyOffice. It handles those MS formats so much better. It’s not a bad suite, but it’s hard to beat the good reputation Libreoffice has gained.

 

Hi all. I was wondering how iOS handles Contacts images, when it comes to encryption. It would be simpler without ADP (Advanced Data Protection), but I have it enabled.

ADP end-to-end encrypts your images, but contacts still uses the legacy (less private) encryption methods. So what happens with the photo tied to the Contact? Is it encrypted, or not? I’d assume as it’s Contact data, it gets treated as part of everything else the Contact holds. I’d just like to know for certain, hence this post. Bonus points if you can provide a source.
