containers get bad rep because docker and all the mess it causes, but every process, or at least most, in the system should use containers in one way or another. it’s a shame this is nowhere close to normalized and doing it is messy

ps2 had very good horror games, like the silent hill saga, fatal frame saga and some hidden gems like haunting ground and rule of rose. there is also the resident evil outbreak games with the online patch so it’s possible to play them in multyplayer mode.

there are also many good action games like the devil may cry saga or many jrpgs like the persona games or the disgaea games.

honestly, ps2 had so many games that it’s hard to list just a few. there was lots of slop but also lots of interesting ideas there. some games got re-releases later for more recent consoles so there are better versions but most of them still hold up

wiiu was a complete mess because nintendo didn’t really knew what to do with it. it tried to market it for (i remember there were conferences where the highlight was fifa or some “grown up” game) while trying to keep it’s usual family friendly userbase. it tried to move away from motion controlls (again, trying to appease gamers) while also having a very interactive gamepad without many games using its features. even the most popular games failed to sell the console so nintendo decided that they will try to slowly delete its existance from collective memory and re-released almost all the games for the switch.

i don’t doubt the name problem was real, but i also read of things like this on the ps1/ps2 transition so i doubt it was as bad as many make it sound.

backups will depend lots on your setup and how far you want to go with it. if you use filesystems like btrfs or zfs you can copy snapshots (across different computers, multiple disks in the same computer, across the web). there are tools dedicated to backup like borg that tries to simplify the whole process. if you want to diy, you can use rsync to do checksumming and copying only new or different files. you can even do snapshot-like backups with a bit of effort.

regardless of the method you use, keep in mind backups are for when things go wrong. ensure they are accesible to you whenever you need them (physically accesible, you have the keys if you chose to encrypt them, the hardware is in good state, things like that). people tend to recommend to keep at least 3 copies in two different formats and one in a different physical place (also known as the 3-2-1 rule) in case you loose two copies at the same time (in case of natural disaster for example).

i have never understood why using agab was ever accepted as trans possitive language. like, it’s litteraly the type of language transphobes use to categorize us

the whole definition of being trans is that you don’t agree with the gender you were asigned at birth!

that one is atrocious but another thing i also find nasty is the amount of disk space new games need. sure, buying more disks is way cheaper than getting more graphical power but downloading +100Gb for a game I might just play once feels like an incredible waste

games should have a lo-fi version where they use lower textures and less graphical features for the people that cannot actually see the difference in graphics after the ps2 era

pretty much every pressident since 1992 has made statements about supporting indigenous people in one way or another just to backstab them with worse reactions. AMLO was specially bad since he did use them as political platform and then continue the common opression every other pressident had done.

Claudia has said many things that sound good in theory but my trust in politicians has complately run dry. this reminds me of the san andres accords, which looked really good but the government decided to betray them bad

will stop seeing posts even if they follow them

wow, is this real? like, what type of social media is it that you can block your own follows without even telling you explicitly. I get the idea of wanting to get automatic block of specific stuff (even if I don’t agree) but having blocklists take precedence over something you actively opted in for makes no sense at all

decided to try supertuxkart again after dismissing it as a bad game years ago. surprisingly, it’s quite entertaining. it still have very rough edges but it’s actually fun to play for a bit

i have a weird thing where even if i have enough time, i just keep finding things that i need to do before leaving. they are usually simple to do but brain defines them as urgent so i cannot just push them for later and they keep me from actually leaving the house until it’s late. this becomes worse for things i don’t really want to do but have to, so i think it’s like a subconcious way i have to cope with the anxiety of leaving or something

i just learned not so long ago the concept of “man cave” where they have rules like “no women allowed here” which in my opinion, sounds everything but het. but for some reason, it is considered very manly and very het

i watched the first 3 ones and the funny part is that I cannot recall a single thing about them. i don’t have good memory but I usually remember the biggest plot points or the impacting scenes and for these ones there is nothing other than data. it feels so weird because it means that they didn’t had a single impacting thing that the brain could keep.

i wanted to watch the new one but it’s hard to commit on something i know it’s going directly into oblivion

scream of independence

this is probably the first time I read this in english and sounds rad. it could be the name of a metal band or something

this was not my idea of gender abolition but sure as hell I would welcome it

That is literally eco-facist rethoric. Stop trying to shift the blame away from capitalism when it’s obviously the problem

can someone explain how does these beds are supposed to avoid people having sex? I cannot see a single thing that woud even be a problem for it.

also, is not that beds are a requirement for sex, but that is a different discussion

are they finally adding professional sex at the olimpics?

I hear “Lucho, no estas solo, carajo” which would translate to “Lucho, you are not alone”. Lucho is a way of referring to people called Luis (Luis Arce being the president’s name) and Carajo would be something close to “damn” as a possitive expression to accentuate the idea (not really sure how to translate it tbh)

unbound is a software that you can run anywhere to have a caching dns. opennic is a project of dns servers you can connect to to resolve dns records (think in google dns servers but run by the community). two different problem spaces. you can even use both at the same time
