  • Epic CEO Tim Sweeney says new multiplayer games are failing because players have no reason to leave their friend groups, touts Unreal Engine 6’s cross-game features as a solution

  • The hook for me is the lack of respawn numbness. Something about insta respawn shooters just turns my brain off and lulls me into boring mental stagnation as I throw myself on the gears. It's the high longer term stakes that are the interesting part. Failing in the heat of the short moment, and thinking back on what you mightve done better. But you'll never experience that exact situation again, so you just try to carry your lessons forward. It's a different pacing that keeps things novel and memorable

  • To each their own, but i enjoyed every second of my several years playing PUBG. It's the same hook as Ironman style high paranoia solo games like Project Zomboid or many others. High stakes, ambient stress, and extremely quick and sudden failures that hone your instinct for next time. I enjoy single player games and many other genres as well for different reasons/goals. I dont think the royale/extraction genres are just fundamentally faulted like you suggest

  • Safely exposing services to the Internet

  • Posted in a similar thread

    My baseline is a public VPS with Pangolin/Crowdsec installed. I have authentik as a login system. Pangolin let's me put authentik in front of any service so they have to log into it before it gets to the service in question whatsoever. This is different than the app itself just using Authentik as the OIDC provider. Helps give a bit of peace of mind with the services which themselves might not be security focused. Also, these pangolin routes are able to block anything outside my country by rules, so that trims a good portion of attacks as well.

    Some things don't like that authentik layer in front though. Audiobookshelf's phone app for example cant handle it. For that, I route those domains through cloudflare tunnels. Their tunnels do a good job blocking lots of attacks, so not having authentik in front is more acceptable.

    But then there's jellyfin that doesnt want to be on cloudflare tunnels and doesnt want authentik in front. For that, I just have it on my pangolin side with only crowdsec helping. Not ideal, but best I can do without making my grandma install a VPN on a raspberry pi in so her TV can connect or some shit.

    And lastly, I have some private services like forgejo that don't like authentik in front and only I myself care about. I tailscale to those rather than exposing sometimes.

  • a faith in man’s ability through the experiences of his reason and judgment to increase for himself and his fellow men the amount of justice and freedom and brotherhood which all human life deserves.

    And then he went right ahead and continued fucking with Cuba. Lol. Doesn't care about freedom or human dignity to determine their own fate. Just cares about the profits the companies lost when Cuba decided it wanted it's country back for it's own people after the colonizer era. All talk. Full of shit when it comes to actually treating other humans with respect.

  • Music just isn't good anymore

    Jump

  • Ditto. Im constantly finding new stuff. I think we all get a favorite music era for free since we start with none, but you gotta think about it and try to keep adding more. Takes approaching the new stuff with different points of view. New music often isn't good for the situations you listen to your original favorites. Maybe you started with electronic dance. Ambient music isn't gonna fit that goal and needs a new mentality and space to appreciate it.

  • The first publicly open instance

    Jump

  • What youre talking about is having an app refer to authentik to find out who a user is.

    Internet -> audiobookshelf -> asks authentik who it is

    In addition to that, you can set pangolin up so that it doesnt even hit that app in the first place at all unless the user is already signed into authentik.

    Internet -> pangolin makes user log into authentik before forwarding along -> audiobookshelf -> asks authentik who it is

    So if the app in question has a security vulnerability, its not a problem because no one even gets to the app at all to begin to try to exploit it unless they've logged into authentik first.

    Only other thing I think I need to add sometime is some VLAN separations?

  • People who are staying on Plex, have you tried Jellyfin? What about it do you not prefer? (real question)

  • Solidarity. New people are being forced to deal with this enshittification wave. We may be immune to it (for now), but the more people involved and excited about the alternative the better it'll be. Yeah, I got mine... but we can also be involved in something better.

  • I think the thing is, every news cycle there IS a few people who's time has come. And so jellyfin is brought up

    I say this as someone who has a plex lifetime and is still using plex. I appreciate everyone getting riled up and passionate, because that means the fallback will be that much more polished when my time comes.

    You sound like someone pulling up the ladder and yelling at the people below to shut up. Anyone new to the space is dealing with this absurd $750 lifetime price. Of course they're yelling

  • Best I've done so far is crowdsec + pangolin geoblocking to just my country. I cant install tailscale subnet routers at all my friends to get their TVs to work. Non starter.

  • Donetick is what I use for this kind of stuff. Still needs a bit of work on the OIDC systems, though

  • Looks like a cool idea! I could see the mappings getting out of hand real quick if you actually braindumped everything in there. I think it needs some more collapsing functionality so i can close sections when im not focused on them.

    True, everything is everywhere and this aims to put everything in one place.. but that can be equally detrimental to ALWAYS have everything in one place. I guess you have some "control" in how far you put things from each other, but probably needs more tooling besides that for organization and especially "archiving".

  • Yeah, mine never reconnects the game audio to my Bluetooth if I ever lock it. I have to quit the game and restart it for it to play audio again. Really makes it frustrating to use on the go, which is all I use it for

  • What about the next generation of kids that want to play old classics, or just plain ol patient gamers that never got to it? If it's just people that have private personal backups, then it'll eventually die with them and be lost forever to time.

  • How do you mateys and folks deal with the sheer amount of music available out there?

    Jump

  • I use Plex for my music, which has a lot of mechanisms that help me process new stuff.

    For example, I have a smart playlist that only plays things I haven't heard in a year. This is my "Frontier" playlist to hear new things. As I listen, I rate stuff with stars.From there, I then have smart playlists that only play highly rated things I haven't heard in a week or two. Depending on my mood, I'll either listen to my frontier playlist, or my liked playlist.. with other playlists further scoping on genre as desired.

    All these playlists filter out things that are lowly rated if I've heard them more than X times.

    I generally shove anything/everything anyone recommends into the pot, which then naturally folds into my frontier playlist which then fold naturally into my liked playlists. I've discovered quite a lot of stuff I never would've predicted I'd like this way. From there, I'll look at recommended artists from the bands I have and like and add those as well.

  • Thanks for the insight! Does running this in a docker container help limit the damage at all? Seems like they'd only be able to access the few folders I have the container access to?
