Almost everything about OW1 is now back in OW2! 6v6 is back, loot boxes are back. You can even play the OW1 metas if you want, though they pretty much only show just how much better the game has gotten over the years.
I’ve been playing OW1 since launch and have really liked OW2, my only complaint was that they were making playable heroes unlockable, but that was fixed a long time ago.
I’m just speaking from personal experience, friend. I understand someone will probably have a list of like 10 links of counterexamples handy but I can say with fair confidence they probably haven’t affected me. Hell, my original joycons actually still work, though I did buy my Switch a couple years after release. And I’m not simping for anything, I will 100% change my stance the day Nintendo starts screwing me over 🤷♂️
At this point in the world I just want to reward one of the few companies that has yet to screw me over. Everything I’ve ever bought from Nintendo still works to this day, and I’m generally expecting it to work forever. No one else is making products like that, it’s all short-term shareholder profits-- who cares about the customer? If you want to pay what garbage is priced at, you’ll get garbage in the end.
I get your point, but I’ll probably end up paying that. The exclusives are pricey but I almost always end up playing them for 50-100+ hours each, so I can’t really complain 🤷♂️
Does the lamination make it impossible to see the watermarks? Because that seems like a legit reason to reject them. Even if the system is flawed with this restriction 🙈
I love hearing about all of these stories the day after I decided to set up a tailnet. No issues so far but who knows. At least now I know to check my DNS config 🙉
Are hardlinks directional? I thought they just resulted in 2 identical files that point to the same physical drive space, therefore only taking 1x disk space.
Once I realized Radarr was making those, I basically just mass-hardlinked my old torrent movies directory to my radarr media directory and used the import page.
pretty new setup but so far I’ve got
symmetra - synology dsm (nas)
junkrat - intel nuc main server
need to name my desktop/laptop now and maybe networking gear. thinking ramattra for the router and zenyatta for the bridge
Awesome thank you, this is what I ended up setting up today. It’s a bit of an awkward solution for now, I would very much like to use it for its ad blocking functionality but I’m unsure if I want to make it my only DNS provider while I’m still migrating services over to the mini PC and messing with the server config. I had set up Pihole years ago and my wife ran into problems using some apps on her phone so I think I’d need to be more proactive about making sure that’s working this time around too.
Thanks for the advice, I didn’t know a reverse proxy was what I was setting up though I’ve seen that term all over. I think Caddy is likely in my future but I already have basic access to my home network through a Wireguard tunnel for now so I was hoping dnsmasq could solve for my case without getting too fancy or exposing any ports. I think I should probably try to learn about reverse proxies more generally to figure out the next steps forward.
I’m a new selfhoster and reached the limit on what my DS923+ can handle after setting up an Immich instance (on top of qbitorrent, radarr/sonarr, plex). So I picked up a mini PC this week and migrated the Immich stack over (pointing to an NFS mount for the NAS!) and now it’s running super smooth 🙌 Now I’m hype to move over more services and eventually start separating out media services from mission-critical stuff like photos when I have another machine handy.
I wanted to set up local domain resolution for my devices in order to stop having to visit sites with the local 192.168.1.x IP, so I started following some guides to run dnsmasq on the mini PC (Ubuntu Server) and add entries to /etc/hosts. It was pretty easy to get working OK, but for whatever reason the DNS doesn’t seem to be working on a fresh boot. My local workstation can’t ping the custom DNS entries for my devices until I sudo systemctl restart dnsmasq on the mini PC, after which everything works fine, which leads me to believe it’s some weird boot order problem? I’m trying not to screw with it too much before bed, but hopefully I can figure out what’s going on this week.
This was my first thought on reading the thread 🙈 I’m so glad I knocked that out when I was like 11, no way my mid-30s ass is staying focused enough for a challenge like that now.

This was an interesting read for me the other day, pretty much exactly what you’re describing: https://www.wired.com/story/i-went-undercover-secret-onlyfans-chatter-wasnt-pretty/
Head First Design Patterns really helped me untangle the spaget
Shapez2 went into EA a couple weeks ago too, I’ve been waiting for Factorio DLC anxiously but this Satisfactory release took me by surprise. It’s such a good year for factory sims 🕺
I had put down Satisfactory earlier this year when starting T8 but I think the full release has rejuvenated my interest, I’m hype to finish the game now 🙌
Yeah casual guilds don’t really have those issues because the requirements for skill at low raid tiers are so lax. Honestly the game kinda lends itself to toxicity when you play in 25-man groups, and it only takes a single person messing up in a mythic raid to ruin the pull for everyone. When it’s like that, isolating the “problem” player is going to be pretty common, and people tend to be more elitist and toxic in general when they are hiding behind a computer screen.
That’s not to say a high level guild can’t be positive and supportive, though. One of the things I like about watching RWF is that most of the high level guilds seem to have such a tight bond, and they never point fingers over a single raid wipe. They’re all in it together and come up with ways to compensate for each other’s weaknesses. But it probably helps that every player is highly invested in playing absolutely perfectly, and I’m sure getting a guild to that point requires aggressively cutting out a lot of weak links along the way 😐
Part of the problem is that UA is such a massive airline, odds are any alternatives would involve quite a bit of sacrifice. Not many people would be willing or can afford to take an extra 2 layovers or 50%+ extra travel time or cost in order to get to where they want to go 🫤 That’s not to say I won’t try my best to avoid UA though, I was already sick of them after my last trip and now I find this news.
+1 if you can have automated checks do part of your reviews for you, it’s a win. I never comment about code style anymore, if I care enough I’ll build it into the lint config
well this is just great, literally yesterday I upgraded to a new Brother printer after 14 years with my old HP laser printer. I may have to consider returning but damn I’m so happy finally having automatic duplex printing and scanning. Honestly the amount they are pushing a subscription toner service had me kinda skeptical already, just seemed really weird from a company everyone has been touting as so consumer friendly
