I don’t want to admit how long it took for me to realize this was upside down. But it was too long.

I moved to Lemmy because of the 3PA shutdown but very early the native apps and mobile web experience kinda sucked honestly. But I’m really surprised how much the apps have progressed for Lemmy in a very very short time. The experience is getting very close to Apollo and the communities are growing rapidly. This is also very anecdotal but it does seem there was a bit of a brain drain from Reddit given the quality of comments here and the apparent lack of quality posts and comments there since.

I remember Best. Basically the same as Service Merchandise. Write the item number down, go to a old 3270 terminal (think green screen crt), order the item, and wait for it to come down the conveyor thingy… good times.

Well shit… it seems the recent rash of enshittification continues. I didn’t realize Plex was doing this so I guess an exit strategy is required. Thanks for the heads up.

I would trust a google product any further than I could throw a single one of their servers. Well except for gmail. That one has been around a while.

I’d say this community is for all gaming including questions like this so you’re fine their in my opinion.

I own a ps1, ps2, ps4, and a ps5 so apparently I don’t like the 3 🤣 so I can’t answer your question about connectivity.

But my answer is if a game system plays games you like, you can find them, and isn’t too expensive I’d say go for it. The library for the ps4 is still huge and I have a psvr so I play it regularly. The older systems were for my younger boys who got into some of the older retro games.

Tl;dr I’d say go for it.

Man Texas becomes more of a fascist shithole everyday.

There are going to be some very interesting studies done about whether or not this is a good thing or not. I can easily see both sides of the argument. Ultimately this is a mental illness that needs to be dealt with but I’m curious if these images could be created to allow

As I can attest after playing with pfsense for years, GUI or not, if you don’t know what you’re doing you’re going to have a bad time.

For me personally, command line gives me a better understanding of what’s really going on. But then again I’m an old Unix nerd. But once I know what’s going on, I prefer the fancy GUI.
