Nobody wanted XP without Space Cadet Pinball

I went to PCPartPicker and tried to assemble a similarly spec’d PC, not with the absolute cheapest components, but definitely from the lower end sorted by price, it came out close to $800.

I guess if Valve can price it at that and be smaller it might have a market, but if much more than that people are better off just buying a PC.

P.S. Since Valve is not buying retail I think there is room for lower than that, and it’d definitely be welcome, but I’m not sure Valve will make that decision.

He said Acer, not ASUS, customer service is great.

Agree with the other 2 replies that hammering the dyndns server every minute is excessive and you should only send them updates when your IP address actually changes.

You should also check the TTL on the primary name server (the dyndns server) and the DNS server you use (likely your ISP’s DNS server).

The dyndns server probably has it configured right and it should have a low TTL like 5 minutes or below, but sometimes the DNS server you use can be a server that ignores TTL and caches the result for longer than expected. I don’t think this is the problem if multiple of your friends are having the same problem but it doesn’t hurt to check.

Yes, now I remember hearing this news, it is an incredibly shitty state of affairs that user functionality is sacrificed for some imaginary potential harm to the interests of big media companies.

If only some TV makers would break rank and add DisplayPort inputs to break HDMI’s monopoly in that space and make them more humble……

I wonder why only HDMI 2.0 on the Steam Machine, 'cos RDNA3 is capable of HDMI 2.1 and you need it to go over 4k 60Hz (I know it says 4k 120Hz for the Steam Machine’s HDMI but I suspect that’s either 4:2:2 color or DSC if it is really HDMI 2.0).

Gamers’ Nexus video says it’ll be laptop-type memory and upgradable.

Well, you do have the Gabe Virtual Boy.

Ironic Microsoft doesn’t have enough electricity to power their hoarded gpus.

I doubt there is a law against an individual buying a bunch of supermarket coupons and handing them out to SNAP recipients outside the store, but I wouldn’t put it past this administration to find some way to sue that person if someone does that.

Just a follow up, it is fixed with this pull request. I think piefed.zip has already deployed it and it is working for me now.

Thanks @[email protected] .

Thanks, so Voyager is showing the posts in the order the APIs returned them? I guess I’ll play around with the APIs a bit and see if there is a difference between lemmy and piefed.

FWIW, pinned posts do show on top on piefed’s native web interface.

“We won’t be able to rebuild the party if I don’t get everyone’s help, from all generations,” she added. “I will scrap my work-life balance and work and work and work and work.”

“scrap work-life balance” doesn’t sound like a correct thing to say for a leader even if referring to oneself.

I wonder if economics has anything to do with this trend worldwide. When people have to worry about their next meal every day they tend to get frustrated and finding something or someone to blame, rightly or wrongly,is a way to vent that frustration.

With more and more wealth concentrating at the top 1% it stands to reason that the population that feels frustrated is increasing quickly.

Would they explode like pagers?

Why was there no mention from Steam that they have belatedly sent out the emails? Were the people who wishlisted the game still not notified? This is no way to fix a issue.

The problem seemed to have fixed itself today. I see an update for voyager is available in browser but I have not updated yet, still on 2.39.2. I don’t see any update on iOS app store, but 2.39.2 is working.

There was no announcement of change on piefed.zip but perhaps something changed there? I’m not sure. I have not received additional notifications since last time I replied.

EDIT:

I went into dev tools again and it seems piefed.zip did not return 404 this time.

I deliberately did not clear the notifications (I could see them if I use piefed directly but I did not mark them read), I’ve received a few more notifications since then but there has been no change in voyager, still getting the same error consistently.
