I see a lot of news of it “coming soon” and leaks, but not an official release. Do you have more info?

I don’t think that’s very Lemmy of you to post a link to a reddit comment.

want to see a world where content creators are simply paid by the hour, while they work.

Do you? Because that’s how game developers get their ideas crushed in favor of yet another game as a service that nobody asked for but makes stock holders happy.

And for alternative creators, who would pay? Do they need to be churning content as a job and not because they are inspired?

I get the idea, it’s just that seems hard to pull off

I would pay to not use PowerShell, but I’m a Linux user so I don’t need to :)

I really wish they get to the point where we can expect long term with no breaking changes. I love it but I have been burnt twice, which is not a lot, but it was very annoying both times

I hope they get to release v4.6.1: “It doesn’t even matter”

When what happened to me, I had Chrono Trigger. Shortest 12 hours of my life

Well, they kind of gave it away with the name…

Ok, I’ve never heard about that. I might run some form of stress test just to see better.

Portable software worked in the past, but I don’t want IT calling me… A third time.

What you are saying in the first paragraph seems more about cooling capacity rather than the computer taking more power than the power supply can handle. I might have misunderstood, but that’s what I don’t see happening with the charging brick. It does happen with the usb-c hub that’s integrated on the monitor. It barely even keeps the battery with normal work, while my previous x13 (integrated graphics) had no issues regardless of task.

I don’t know the power in idle, I can’t install anything, not sure if I can check. If you know a way let me know and I’ll try.

My Lenovo P1 with an i7 and a Nvidia 4900 and a 230W adapter is wondering what you’re talking about.

Not a myth. Better batteries might have better safety measures, but none is inmune. It might not have happened to you but I’ve seen it happen in several high end/expensive brands already.

For simplicity, I have it in regex format

Jokes aside, Nintendo, EA, Ubisoft, Nintendo, Activision-blizzard and Nintendo are the ones that come to mind.

If indi and plays well on deck, I’m generally on paying.

I did use it in the past! I should check it again. I didn’t like how the multi user was planned (basically independent instances), but was long enough things might have changed.

Good, once I can trivially not follow instructions between updates I’ll check it again.

This is not a criticisms got immich, once they are in the stable phase I’ll try, just I don’t have the time to be checking the notes every update just in case.

My stack is very large, I rather use sw that requires little to no micromanaging.

I love immich, but I’m going to settle for something that doesn’t require to modify the compose every couple of months due to breaking changes. Trying to apply changes for two breaking updates in one go killed it for me.

I’ll check this one for the time being

I see your point, but I don’t think this would qualify as decentralized. It went from 1 to maybe 8 players depending on where you are, but they are separated and closed. Each one of them is centralized, it’s just that there are several competing ones. Each one is taking away their shows or making some third party ones exclusive, so the more there are, the less vale each provides.

And of course the issue is that each one has to be paid separately, so there’s a economic incentive to participate in as few as you can.

With Lemmy for instance, you might want want an instance that’s very connected with others, one that’s quite closed and focussed or even create several users or even spin your own instance to have it your way.

To be fair, for me the fact that they content is now spread across many subscription services is the problem more than Netflix’s price or current quality.

Once I set are services, torrent and jellyfin for all of the others, I’m not making exceptions for Netflix

What streaming service is adding pop up adds on movies or shows you have purchased?

They could easily start charging a monthly subscription to not have ads pop-ups in game!

No, they could not. Regulators would stop that very quickly. Steam is large enough that would be noticed.

Now, tell me what the other stores have to offer? Epic has the same issues, but with less games and more crappy launcher. Gog is DRM free… But those games you can get DRM free elsewhere too. The rest have very limited catalog and little features.

In the end Steam is big because they are doing things better by most players standards. I will be extremely happy the day the competition starts doing something aside from “being the underdog”.
