I wish scan and go would be more common.

  1. Bring your own bags.
  2. Scan and bag items as you go.
  3. Check in at register and walk out. I've got two little kids and it's the best way. It's a shame that only Walmart offers scan and go in my area and it's behind a subscription.

    Nintendo eternally sucks but the Yuzu team handed their asses to the lawyers on a silver platter. Taking donations is one thing but a paywall to play the latest big first-party games is legal bait.

    Emulators have been a coding exercise that came with a nice side benefit. Devs were deliberate about separately the work from piracy. Then a group like Tropical Haze makes money on writing an emulator and release a 0-day update that runs Tears of the Kingdom.

    Emulation isn't a place for entrepreneurs.

    Thank you for the advice! I hadn't thought about this in a prod vs. dev scenario, so this is really appreciated. I will keep things simple on one device.

    Advice about upgrading hardware (lemmy.world)
     

    Hello! I'm upgrading my home server and am looking for some advice on how to use all of my available hardware.

    My server runs off of an old 6600k with DDR4 RAM. I have a new motherboard and a 14600k on order with plans to reuse the RAM since the speed and amount (32GB) is sufficient for now.

    This server started as a Plex server with an Arr stack. I've added some small YouTube utilities (MeTube and Pinchflat) as well as Home Assistant. This is all running in OMV with mergerfs and SnapRAID for storage.

    Here are a two plans that I need help deciding between. I'm worried about cramping my expansion possibilities or making things convoluted for no gains:

    1. All-in-one Server: Everything moves over to the new 14600k server, including Plex, my NAS, and other self-hosted utilities. I've got a NAS case that will support 10 3.5" drives as well as a SATA controller card to expand my available 6 Gbps ports to 12.

    2. Media Server and NAS Server: The 14600k machine runs Plex and all other self-hosted tools. The 6600k runs OMV to manage NAS storage on a separate machine.

    Long story short: I have all of the required hardware to make two machines. Does that make things easier for me in the long run, or am I just over complicating things?

    I had an account day 1 when Spotify launched in my country. It was such a big deal to me, a person who spent their teens and 20s hoarding music. One service and it was most of the music I wanted. I could sideload my own music and shuffle it all together.

    I miss that little app store on the desktop client. You could join shared radio stations and vote on the next track while people wrote to each other in a chat.

    YSK: Bandcamp is waiving its fees today and all money is passed to the artist (until 12 a.m. PST) (daily.bandcamp.com)
     

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/33818262

    Today is Bandcamp Friday

    From now until 12 a.m. PST, Bandcamp will pass 100% of revenue directly to artists. From its website:

    Bandcamp Fridays began in March of 2020 at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic when the shuttering of venues led to a loss of vital tour revenue for artists. Since then, Bandcamp Fridays—on which we waive our revenue share and pass the funds directly to artists & labels—has resulted in millions of fans paying over $120 million directly to labels and musicians they love. In addition to helping artists pay the rent, or fund album recordings and tours, Bandcamp Fridays have also become a beacon for artists and record labels looking to raise awareness for causes or raise money for charities.
