Says game size is 60GB for PS4 and 80GB for PS5 respectively. Feels good man. Personally I am disappointed the game isn't 300GB of content but I will live.

~~The RCE exploit recently leveraged publicly in Dark Souls 3 is not able to be leveraged on PlayStation 4, 5, or Xbox consoles. Neither will the console versions of Elden Ring be able to be exploited. There is no vector to either trigger it or to gain elevated remote privileges.~~

~~Some people have been exhibiting paranoia that the exploit could mean more delays. I was already skeptical of such fears but this news from Lance is another good sign that the game will release on time.~~

I see this being mentioned a bit in American media. I understand why this can happen. Capital does not want to pay living wages to the working people and workers do not want to work for pennies. There is no such thing as labour shortage, only capital not willing to pay.

But if people are just walking away from jobs, how are they affording subsistence? I have seen restaurants being closed because they don't have workers. So it is not only people who can afford savings who are quitting.

I can't phrase the question very well but the bottom line is this: I don't understand. So any insight you might want to share is welcome.

Just want to listen to that lofi stream while studying.

Hello.

When I use Conversations for communicating with my family (all for us are using a public server right now), the battery usage is very low and reasonable. But after joining a group (specifically Prosody's group so I can ask question there), the battery usage becomes very high (about 20% of the battery is consumed by Conversations according to Android's metrics).

Is there anything I can do about this? I was thinking if I can join the group on desktop but not my phone, it would be ideal. But this information gets synced across devices. So I end up joining the group and then leaving when I am done.

Any suggestions for this?

I want to stop using WhatsApp because I fuckin hate it. Does anyone use XMPP regularly? It allows encryption so I was considering it.

The consideration is whether I will have to self host it or I can use some publicly hosted instances (like how there are open Matrix instances). Also whether it has support for desktop clients that run natively on Loonix without electron.

Please share your thoughts if you have experience. Feel free to suggest other alternatives too. I won't mind that.

I personally use passwordstore.org with a git repo on a personal VPS. But I wanted to set up a password manager for my boomer parents and looks like Bitwarden is one of the better options out there.

The problem is that the free tier sounds a bit too good to be true so I am worried that it might just disappear or discontinue one day. Any idea if this fear is unfounded or not?

If you have been using Bitwarden please share your experience with it. Would like to hear.

I use one called X-Plore. It's actually very good. Even has a WiFi server, conpressed archive support, etc. but the downsides are that it's close sourced and some features are behind a paywall (though IMO they are worth it).

So I was thinking of moving to some free or open source software. Any recommendations?

I gave it a go last night and it is way trickier then I expected. Simple things like setting options are not very convenient at the moment. I also tried to get packer.nvim running but the README was not very helpful.

Looks like I will be sticking with init.vim for some time.

Haven't tried it yet but it looks super neat.
