That’s the nail in the coffin then. I’m pretty happy that I didn’t spend a single cent on this now. And I thought about it a lot

    Imho the price is justified. By raw numbers it’s a beefier steam deck for + $30.

    Oh, and you get a dock that increases its power.

    piyuv,

    By raw numbers I have around 500 games on steam and there’s a huge sale every 3-4 months. Deck is also a pretty capable computer and runs Linux. Deck can run games from many platforms, not just steam.

    intensely_human, do games w EXCLUSIVE - Ubisoft Wants to Change the 'Far Cry Formula' with Far Cry 7 and Maverick

    Thank god.

    I was so disappointed at the mechanics they brought in with FarCry 3. The ability to tag an enemy and have them be visible through walls until they’re dead is ridiculous. I was horrified when I saw it repeated in 4, and then realized it was a permanent part of the franchise.

    FarCry 2 is one of my favorite games.

    I wonder what will happen with Choice. Without it I’ll be down to a VPN and one other subscription (Peacock for wrestling for the curious). My VPN (PIA, you curious people) was bought out by a Chinese company if I remember correctly, and just recently announced a price increase. It wasn’t a whole lot, but it’s not a direction I enjoy, so I’m already rethinking that.

    I digress, I know Humble of old already died, but it will be a sad day to see it gone for good.

    warm,

    This is about their game publishing branch, not the store.

    Cadeillac,
    @Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

    That’s what I was hoping, but it still has me nervous. The store is probably profitable, but the bundles have never been the same

    warm,

    Yeah, doesn't bode well. Turned into your typical greedy company with the IGN buyout, as much as they could within the limits of keeping old charirty values.

    mosiacmango,

    Check out mullvad for a vpn. Not the cheapest, but immensely good and ethical. They have been audited and walk the walk.

    If you know your way around a Linux terminal, or can follow simple terminal instructions, I always recommend folks host their own OpenVPN server. $5/month for a digital ocean instance and now I never have to worry about some provider hiking my VPN prices or snooping on my traffic.

    I was already planning on moving over to Linux, and can get around enough. This is amazing info, as I’ve moved more into self hosting and didn’t even realize that was an option. Definitely something to look into once I find a permanent residence. Thank you!

    You are awesome friend! It won’t be anytime soon. We lost our place to a fire and are getting by in motels for now. Everyone survived and a lot more than expected was salvageable, so we keep moving forward.

    At some point I’ll throw my old parts together into a Linux server. I was just hosting everything on my main rig, which obviously is not ideal. I’ve seen a bit of discussion on both sides of docker, do you have any input one way or the other?

    Hexarei,
    @Hexarei@programming.dev avatar

    Ah, I’ve generally run my VPN primary exit node in a public cloud infrastructure host like Digital Ocean or AWS in order to provide a separate public IP from the rest of my stuff, and not give out my home IP to public Wi-Fi and such.

    I like docker, as long as you use a good orchestration tool it’s a good way to declaratively define what should be running on your server, using a compose file or similar. There are a lot of benefits to the overhead of learning it, including running multiple instances of the same service on one machine without conflicts, and the ability to force your hosted apps to store all of their data in nice neat packages you can easily back up with something like Duplicity or Volumerize.

    I actually run my containers on a small kubernetes cluster using VMs running k3s atop Proxmox, with persistence handled by a hyperconverged ceph cluster. All probably very overkill but it’s fun to play with and performs incredibly. Most folks can get away with a single server running containers with simple docker compose.

    Thank you so much for the info. I love learning

    szczuroarturo, do games w Steam Is Run By Fewer Than 80 Staff, Lawsuit Docs Reveal

    That actually makes a lot of sense given the fact that i havent heard about massive steam data centers. I suppose they just rent their servers from data centers around the world. Which actually is very suprising. I imagine at their scale making their own data centers would save them money.

    Actually i just think they must subcontract a lot of their daily operation. I refuse to belive such low numbers are enough to even handle the complaints from stolen shipments and broken devices not to mention all the other complaints. It is more than enough to actually develop the platform but surely not to handle day to day operations.

    Excrubulent,
    @Excrubulent@slrpnk.net avatar

    I suspect subcontracting is how they get around the lasseiz-faire nature of employment there. There’s a famously open policy where nobody tells anyone what to do.

    But I imagine that policy can’t extend to subcontractors. There it’s “here’s money, make the servers happen”.

    phx,

    I remember reading that having a version keyword in your user alias would cause issues with steam, and it was actually because it was a blocked word on CloudFlare where they store/pull a bunch of steam data from
