Unraid, mostly due to the flexible arrays.

That's a very succinct rebuttal... I like it.

I host some private stuff on mine, hidden behind an authentication service that is. But because I just use a wildcard no-one can really tell what I have hosted - the same login page occurs for every subdomain, regardless of whether it's actually wired up to something.

That doesn't help with services you wish to make semi-public (like a lemmy instance) though.

I'd definetly recommend GitLab too - but it's not lightweight.

RGB!!

More seriously, "gaming headphones" are almost always actually "gaming headsets", ie they have a mic. Good music headphones without a mic don't fulfil the requirements of quite a lot of gamers, and normal headsets are usually calibrated for voice and not immersiveness in games.

I really wish someone would teach these companies how to count.
My only guess is that they want to hide the insane amount of COD games there are.

Of course - I get that. I'm a programmer myself.

But it does have to be said that there's little excuse for not doing it anymore for heavy applications, especially games. The tools/frameworks/engines have vastly improved, and people know (at least roughly) ahead of time what work is going to slog the CPU, especially in the case of a AAA studio.

Note: I'm only referring to relatively modern games here - anything that's older than when multithread really took off gets an automatic pass - it's not reasonable to expect someone to cater for a situation that doesn't exist yet.

At least with Spotify, you don't specifically buy any songs.
GOG is the only good egg in your list. Shame their Linux support is awful...

It'll be a long time before anything can reasonably generate that kind of resolution. Streaming is almost definitely out, and the GPU required to run a game at that at anything but minimum settings...

That said, gotta look to the future I guess. Gotta wonder if there's any tangible benefit to going over 4K, unless you're nose is up against the screen anyway.

[-] shadowbert@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately, there probably would be. Hopefully it would be less popular, but some people just non-ironically think that way. Disturbing, but reality.

You couldn't be more wrong.
He is an international treasure.

I don't see anything mentioned about calls... kind've a big part of discord.

Is it supported?
