could probably never replace the real thing but like, it would likely require less spoons to look after, be a great talking point, maintenance might cater to my hobbies, and it would likely be quite helpful with productivity
woke up without the sightest hint of what my dreams were though i think they were. something i would've wanted to share had i remembered any of it. also feeling kinda warm and even humid in here maybe? feels kinda blah
civ 6 still loves to be buggy and crash but it seems more stable than it ever used to be considering i've been playing for hours and it only just crashed a few minutes ago.
i wonder what it'd be like if a co-op purchased a server farm or two and gave out (or rented out super cheap) space to certain folks to host shit for the benefit of the community.
federation instances, game servers, important resources to browse and download, personal and professional sites designed by and for the marginalised. stuff like that
seems like it'd be too expensive and wouldn't turn enough of a profit to sustain itself but it would be incredible if it did happen
i remember when i first started playing online games that required hosting your own servers, and hosting on your own desktop pc at home was common. now if you want to host any game over the internet, even your friends will get upset if the server isn't hosted professionally for optimal performance and latency
good that we're upping our standards, bad that it's hard for folks who haven't learned how to manage remote servers or afford the upkeep to actually host games for friends
one of the dreams that stuck with me the most from last night was one where i had met up with an old friend, and we were sitting around my bedroom, he on the bed and me in my computer chair. we were trying to come up with things to talk about, but every time one of us spoke, the other had no idea how to relate.
we realised we had kinda moved on from each other, for better or for worse. was largely upsetting, but as usual, i just kinda took it in stride and bottled it up
having a bad day mh wise. kinda knew this was gonna happen given how i've been acting lately. just another day where i feel incredibly detached from everyone and everything.
