Loved Shining Force since I watched my brother and his friend play all night after renting it from Blockbuster in the early 90s! I’ve played 1 and 2 a few times over the years and always had fun.

I got 10,000 seeds of Oriental Nights alyssum for $10 and planted them in a couple beds thanks to this comment :)

Looks right to me, thank you!

Lovely, anyone have an ID on the flower species?

I really tried to like Battlespire as a kid but didn’t make it far. Major disappointment after Daggerfall! I didn’t even know there were mobile games, glad I missed those.

One must start with Arena, of course.

Ditto. I just farted to look into this yesterday and found the trash guides. It was pretty incomprehensible and I gave up. I hope to come back to this thread later and see that someone has explained how to set this up simply.

I really wanted to play this game but I couldn’t handle the phobia stress!

I had such a frustrating time getting onto that site and trying to figure out their karma system after I made it in. Nothing I actually wanted to read or listen to was available until you reached a certain level of upload. I downloaded all the free leech stuff but nobody downloaded it from me. It was a huge waste of time and I gave up eventually.

Looks like iterative waterfall

But product make money… and we want money now.

Just checked on my pi4 with 4GB of ram that has been running beautifully as a NAS with 2x10TB USB drives mirrored, *arr suite, and Jellyfin for a couple of years, only 250mb of RAM free. I’m glad I splurged and got the 4gb model.

You don’t want a swap file on the SD card as excessive writes will kill it rather quickly.

I’ll take an 8 bay NAS with Thunderbolt/USB 4 for the best of both worlds. My only problem is that I’m very sensitive to sound and I don’t want spinning hard drives in my office.

I understand your concern based on how corporations tend to run these days, but this is a lot of speculation. It’s good to be skeptical though.

My guess is that they want to use a single account across more services unrelated to GOG, akin to the way google SSO works for gmail, YouTube, drive, etc. If the account is owned by a subsidiary that might not be possible for other subsidiaries to use the same account per data regulation rules.

I’m very happy with ansible-NAS! https://ansible-nas.io/

It takes some extra time to understand and configure up front on another computer, but once you do, reimaging the server in case of problems takes a single command.

That’s great. It’s been chugging along beautifully with no downtime for me too. It’s just that one failed update attempt, losing internet and network while it was down, and needing to go Ethernet directly into the box to do the snapshot rollback late at night made me afraid to try again. Last night it took me two hours to update everything , first proxmox 7 to 8, then OPNsense needed 4 rounds of update and reboot but each one was seamless.

I’m also on ZFS with two primary mirrored drives. Do you have to check zfs status regularly to see if a drive has failed? Or is there some kind of warning system when logging in via SSH?

I’m thinking of turning my rarely used windows gaming PC into a proxmox host with a Linux gaming VM for my next adventure.

Edit: realized it was a whole node that failed, not just a drive. Cool setup! I’m not there yet. I’m curious about your setup, what’s between the modem and the router?

You just described my setup of about a year. I’m struggling to update opnsense, last time I tried it just stopped working and I had to restore a snapshot from proxmox to get it working again. If anyone reading this has any suggestions I’m all ears!

Just updated proxmox and opnsense with few snags and it just worked. Phew.

If you’re only accessing the server remotely via Tailscale and no ports are open, is it necessary to have the server on its own isolated VLAN? I like accessing my server locally most of the time and via Tailscale when I’m out and about.
