Please stahp the mergers and acquisitions already pleeeeease.

I like both ff7 remake and rebirth… FF16 is devil may cry. I like devil may cry but not like this… I still bought it though.

Price drop put the 7900x at bargain bin prices and I bought that instead.

In the modern game industry, you get hit with layoffs even if you do well so it doesn’t really matter what the quality of your product is in the end… You still get laid off.

This is why being a wizard is illegal in Dragon Age.

I was too busy seeing alien: cromulant a second time.

I hope Bungie realized that if they make another free to play shooter that it will cut into the profits of their other free to play shooter.

Maybe they can try something smaller, more original, and riskier and see if people will buy that. Shorter development time, tighter budget, minimize the scope of the first title and see what people will buy. Leverage the fact that you have all this game tech, expertise, and capital and make three smaller projects that do not compete against the core product directly and come to market quickly.

Honestly when I think about it, this is just what Mac Users have been doing for years. It’s ok to have different devices that do different things.

With that being said, I know my journey with computers was me breaking a lot of stuff and installing software I shouldn’t as a child. If they want a windows PC, make them come up with the build. That’s the best way to share your hobby.

Data hoarding is a truly unique experience. Just my two cents

• raid is not a backup. Don’t use raid5 unless you’re using a filesystem like zfs that checksums your data. Raid5 is vulnerable to scenarios with a “write hole” that leads to bit rot.

• split up your dataset into smaller more manageable datasets so you can more easily back it up in different ways like external drives, cloud storage, etc. You can then limit the dataset size to never exceed the same of your backup target.

• snapshots, use them. Snapshots in your filesystem can make your backups more manageable by only sending the differential data as opposed to something like Rsync which may need to rsync an entire file.

I use ZFS and have found that compression with ZSTD works pretty well for getting extra use out of your disks but unless you have a lot of RAM and some special metadata NVME disks, don’t use reduplication as it will be a serious performance impact.

Now if you aren’t using a FOSS system like truenas and instead you’re using a system like a qnap off the shelf, the qnap hybrid backup and sync manager has a really elegant solution for doing policy based differential backups to back blaze b2 storage. Not only does this give you a copy of your data, you also get immutable points in time archives of your data.

Good luck in your data hoarding endeavors!

Good to know. I won’t buy it. Yoho yoho I guess

This is old news but I do often think about the flaw in Tim Sweeney’s strategy to try and bully apple and Microsoft into making their platforms work his way.

Honestly Epic should have got in the Linux bandwagon years ago so they could provide their own hardware.

How unremarkable

Please, just shut it down.

It’s funny to me that we are not looking at the market beyond Sony Microsoft Nintendo.

Retro gaming handhelds for emulation are on the rise and large swaths of the market are gravitating to them. There is growth in gaming but it’s actually a growth in piracy. No one likes the new stuff.
