They need to fix their community ui, that you still can’t search on their forums is a colossal oversight on their part

Wow I’m in early on this one!

Very nicely put together, as usual! Your consistency and effort is enviable!

Probably would recommend avoiding dredge XD

Cat fishing (maybe it’s called fishing with cat?) glad you already did for detective, cat quest 1-3, trine is pretty laid back, Thomas was alone, undertale,

You scared me with “Xbox games pass games leaving”, I thought Micro$oft was pulling support, I know there’s rumor of them trying a handheld console.

Steam gave a user 4,000 in free games, but his library is valued at 372k? 37k games… That’s like 30 cents per game? I feel like wherever these numbers came from is kinda wonky

Downloaded the shin magami tensi 5 demo,

Have never played any of that series.

Read it was a bit like persona (could never get into it because I don’t care about managing the day to day activities of a high schooler), was pretty happy to learn that it wasn’t (at least as far as I’ve gotten), it reminds me of the game boy color game ‘dragon warrior monsters’

I thought about buying it, but I have so many unplayed games already, and while I enjoy a good monster collector game, I couldn’t justify pulling the trigger.

Also it was a bit too similar to persona, when it did go on that direction, for me to be confident it wouldn’t jerk back in that direction.

Maybe when I have all the time in the world I’ll put time and money into that game, for now it’s a half completed demo on my deck.

Defenders quest 2 just released after 10 years of development! I’ve been having a very enjoyable time with that, the initial launch was rough on the deck but the first patch worked out the interface issues it was having.

Infinitode 2 (I guess I have a thing for tower defense games)

And some ‘tiny rogue’

Also tried ‘cat goes fishing’, but a couple things are irking me about it, it’s enjoyable enough and was cheap enough that I’m not upset.

Fired up ‘prodeus’ for the first time since activating it from a humble bundle (I think?) it has all the good feelings of the original doom, it’s just a bit too stressful for me, especially at midnight when I tried playing it.

‘boxes’ is a kinda meh puzzle game, it’s a bit high on its own farts, if it wants to be as deep and philosophical as I think it does, it needs to have much better puzzles, but if I ignore the story and don’t think too much about the ‘why not just break the glass’ it’s an enjoyable enough game.

I can see you! Near the top of my lemmy.world feed (I believe, I’m pretty new to all this as well)

Congratulations on getting your instance up!

This was the one I came to recommend as well.

Most played is going to go to backpack battles thanks to my wife hitting it nearly every night.

Most surprising would be path of exile 2, I didn’t expect it to work so well right off the early access launch

Don’t lower prices for the people who you provide a service to, funnel that money to the shareholders! Wait there isn’t enough money to keep it flowing into the share holders… Raise the prices to those you’re providing service to!

Loop ad infinitum

Didn’t expect them to call out disgaea4 like that!

It’s been a while since I’ve tried it, so long that it worked when I last tried, but I’ve heard people were having trouble with it. You’d think there would be higher profile targets to announce fixes for, either that series is much more popular than I thought, or…

I have a full size and multiple 60%'s, they’re all very reliable, not the heartiest, but I had the first one for over 5 years, all of the screws stripped out of the back (from being repeatedly walked on by the dogs, rolled upon by myself), and it still worked. But using it became a chore so I caved and bought another to replace it.

Love my arteck gear, it’s cheap AF, but I can buy 5 or 6 for the price of 1 nice setup, and I don’t worry at all about it being trashed in transit.

The small keyboard fits just about any pocket my deck will fit into (yeah I travel in loose baggy clothes), and I have a really small collapsible kick stand for the deck as well.

I’m just being pedantic here, but an intercom system expands anywhere there’s networking, requires fewer wires, and lower voltage (will even work without power, not very well, but it will)

Did you run the line under ground or through conduit? Disconnect it from both sides, attach string/fishing line to one side, pull cable out of conduit on the side without the string attached. Detach string from either meet cable, reattach string with Ethernet cable and the additional cable (speaker cable in this case), pull string from the original side until both cables make their appearance.

Outside of walkie talkies (have you considered walkie talkie? Maybe put an antenna outside of the shop?) this is the simplest way to do it (imo, but I don’t play with raspberry pi’s)

It’s literally speaker wire, or you could clip the ends of your Ethernet and use those (but you probably want your Ethernet out there still XD. One side will be to be run to power, but it’ll power the rest of the stations through the wire.

I feel like this is definitely what you’re looking for, no computers required.

From Amazon, I found “IS543 5/4/3 WIRE INTERCOM STAT-PLAST”

It’s similar to what we had growing up, 1 in the shed, 1 in the kitchen 1 in the game room, push the button of the location you wanted to talk to, only 1 direction of communication at a time, over.

I feel like you’re making it way more complicated than it needs to be, why would you involve a switch or processor when you’re just carrying sound waves? You don’t even need a modulator, it just needs to connect a microphone to a speaker like cans on a string. Is it the highest quality? No, will it record your conversation for posterity? Also no. Will it let you tell at someone to get their asses in for dinner, absolutely

You’ve already run wires, why not a microphone and speaker system?

Yet still people will find reason to complain.

80% of my catalog is platinum and gold, 20% I probably wasn’t going to play anyways.
