I just started playing WoW again and I don’t feel any pressure from the supposed “dark patterns”, or having to buy this stuff (which I can’t, because I’m not in the US). It has zero effect on my gameplay. WoW is fun and addicting in a sense for sure, but there are way worse MMOs when it comes to this. Just look at any Korean MMO, like Black Desert Online. I’d even argue ESO is way worse than WoW when it comes to monetization.

I also like their very picturesque cabin picture with a rainbow haha

It seems weird FBI would post misinformation regarding how “they” are spending the money

Endless growth will kill us all. I can’t tell you how much I detest these “concerns”.

Great explanation, thank you! Hamachi brings back memories haha

Probably just me that’s confused. I thought Tailscale was similar to WireGuard but much easier to set up. So one connects to the services directly, and not just the general home network (like a VPN) where you then enter whatever address you need to access the service?

How’s the power draw on mobile devices?

Very interesting. Didn’t know this was a possibility. I don’t need anything now but thanks for offering, might get back to you

I mean, most high-end phones today doesn’t support SD cards so this can be a reason why to selfhost.

Yeah it’s for sure an issue in the rest of the world too. Not discounting that

I really dislike this argument. Just because it’s “their country, their rules” doesn’t not make it an issue? Especially when it comes to privacy concerns. Privacy concerns are universal. There are a plethora of serious issues that are not defended by “national sovereignty”. If that was the case we should just turn a blind eye to North Korea, right?

For a while? Our business used it until … this year. It’s finally EOL this year.

No one ever questions these things. “It’s for the kids!” is the one argument that’ll lead us all to damnation.

Hasn’t RSS support been dropping these last few years? Last I heard was that RSS was dying, though I don’t know how true that is.
