What a pathetic, desperate move.
If you ever needed evidence that Spez is completely incompetent, or that Reddit are totally willing to milk users for every cent with zero remorse, this is it.

Well that effectively and succinctly summed up my general distaste for Twitter and Twitter-alikes.

They renamed wefwef?
Edit: They renamed wefwef.
I’m in the same kinda situation as you, I need some storage but need it to be expandable, want to run some docker stuff, while I could (and have in the past) build and maintain something like that from scratch, I don’t want it to take over my life and I want it to be easy to maintain. My previous NAS was fully set up from scratch on FreeBSD, it was pretty good but was a lot of work to get it right.
So I set up an Unraid server on a parts-bin server as a kinda compromise between a fully DIY and just buying a NAS. Meant I could use some old stuff I had and some cheap components rather than paying out hundreds for a NAS. Slapped in some shucked drives and some old NVMe drives (took the opportunity to upgrade my gaming machine, so used the old stuff for this), now got 42Tb of storage and 2Tb cache.
I have to say it’s bloody fantastic. Was a bit on the fence about a paid OS but it’s cheap, the UI is solid, and thus far totally worth the money.
Alongside about a dozen services running in containers, I’ve got an Arch VM to satiate my DIY cravings, which suits me fine because I can do what I want with that without messing up my file storage/services/etc.
Teams works fine on Firefox.
Adblock plus is shit compromised corporate crap. Use uBlock Origin.
2097 was cool for sure, and I used to listen to a lot of the music that was in all the games and bands the designers had done artwork for.
I love the design in wipeout 3. I know it’s not for everyone. It was the same designers as 2097, and a deliberate choice by them to try to create something minimal that would feel like a real racing league. I think they did a fantastic job. I love that there’s no logo. I love that some of the text is huge and angular with no antialiasing and some is tiny and heavily antialiased, I love the pixel perfect selection boxes. It’s so fantastically on point as a grown up evolution of 2097.
If anything, I think it holds up better today than it did at the time.
Also touches like the birds on the first track are fantastic.
(Btw I’m not talking about the special edition where they made the text bigger and uglified it significantly)
I’ve been playing Wipeout 3 via an emulator on my steam deck, it’s fucking great. Well, the difficulty curve is brutal but it’s great fun and stands up today. The design elements are still fantastic.
No.
If you’re alive then you’re totally be within your rights to choose who to voluntarily help or donate something to. Don’t like the look of that homeless guy for whatever reason? Don’t give them money. You can be as racist or misogynistic or otherwise generally cunty as you like, and as long as it’s your personal money/time/organs and you keep quiet about your selection criteria you’re unlikely to have a problem.
However once you’re dead, if you want your dickish restrictions honoured then you have to write them down somewhere. And any organisation set up to manage organ donations that agrees to facilitate such restrictions is likely to find themselves on the pointy end of a discrimination lawsuit at some point.
That site has some nasty adblocker-blocker, so I guess I’m not reading that article…
