I definitely forgot to add a password file when I upgraded through ansible and locked myself out of the DB. Also locked myself out with the private instance + federation setting combo. Still enjoying it, though!

I understand you are in other arguments in this thread. This wasn't meant to be one of them. I just got a kick out of you using "10 years", "nowadays" etc for a game that is 20 years old.

It's the same energy as these kinds of memes

Surprised I'm not seeing any other self-hosters in here. Having seen the de-federation drama, it's nice to know that I can federate with anyone I want, regardless of if they are federating with eachother.

Obviously it comes with the administration side of things, but I really don't mind.

We’re 2024 already?

So we are. That kind of makes the 10 year statement a little more silly, no?

Half Life 2 is just shy of being 20 years old.

Anyways, I enjoyed how old you made me feel with this comment 😅

if you have been gaming 10 years and only play AAA.

Half Life 2: A 2013 classic.

Database name is the database name, not the table name

User is the user for your database. Look up how to create new users in phpmyadmin. You should be able to grant or revoke different accesses in phpmyadmin as well to achieve an account which can only read a specific table (search for information on grants)

Lastly, Id like to suggest you not write your own security techniques (auth, etc). Look up best practices and use them (JWT, OAuth, Session cookies, etc).

I was super confused thinking those tweets were in response to this news story.

They're using a window manager over a full DE, so it's likely the usual case of preferring minimalism to the very complete desktop environment (which many consider bloated). I'm a window manager person myself, but I've been giving KDE a good honest try for the past couple of weeks. It's definitely very nice if you want the full DE experience.

Is this recent? I've played a bunch of games on Linux with my friends on Windows. Just had to do the required finagling found on ProtonDB

This. No diss to Endeavour, but Arch is just as easy using Archinstall

I'd have to look there to know 🤷

TBH, the only times I've visited since this whole thing began have been from Google searches. I miss a couple of subs, but I think Lemmy/Kbin will fill that void in due time.

Just tried with GPT-4, it said "Sure, here is the letter A 2048 times:" and then proceeded to type 2048 A's

The stack overflow survey showed 33% of devs are using MacOS. You won't (or shouldn't) be roasted for recommending a mac.

Oh boy, Chimaera Linux and ChimaeraOS are two different distros, huh?

Have you updated recently? I only started having issues today.

I believe this all boiled down to issues with ownership (SquareEnix / Nintendo). Seems they've worked something out, though!

I'm unbelievably stoked for this game (also the Super Mario RPG remake). Super glad to see them playing with the Mario formula.

Surely they can't survive after this, right? Like, people can't be okay with this.

TMNT Turtles in Time. So overlooked. It is 100% unapologetic video game music, and it kicks holy amounts of ass.

I was having a look at the neutron when they announced the proton. Held off to buy the proton. Now the neutron is discontinued (or just expensive?) and the proton is still not available 😭
