Minecraft, the game that sold the most copies in history, has a huge infrastructure of community-hosted servers, some with tens of thousands of players playing at the same time. The community has created different flavors of the server software, optimized it, added mod support and even reprogrammed parts of it.

At this point, it’s hard for me to believe how someone could say a community can’t run game servers with a straight face.

Last I heard is that he compiles the kernel on an AMD machine (with a threadripper iirc), so he also has a beefy desktop.

It really isn’t that slow, last time I tried to homebrew a working DNS tunnel it maxed my 100mbps card. I never needed the extra speed so I didn’t try to see how fast it could be on a 1gbps card

I’ve started to go 15-20 minutes late. I’ve never missed a minute of movie, but I’ve skipped so many ads.

If I get one of those, I’m definitely killing it and stealing its copper. Amazon can pay for the repairs.

Where I live, if a kid jumps in front of your car, even if there is no crossing and you had no visibility, you still have the majority of the fault. The truth is you are the one driving a killing machine, and if you are going at a speed where you can’t ensure, with your currect visibility and road conditions, that an accident won’t happen, it’s you who is at fault.

Of course that’s different on highways and speedways, where the one crossing would be found at fault. But for all residential areas, drivers need to be careful about pedestrians crossing the road, and especially kids who are unpredictable.

This is true, especially for games. But for some reason, even though some compatibility features have been removed from windows, others still remain. Hell, if you look into System32, you can still find the dialer app from windows 95 (still with its original icon, btw!), or Windows Vista’s “bubbles” screensaver, and they still run.

Edit: this is not a windows praise, it’s a critique. Those parts are dead weight, and windows isn’t even that good at offering compatibility for old software
