While I do have some control over my DNS and can create arbitrary TXT entries, I can’t to that in an automated way easily. I’m using Gandi.net to host my DNS rather than running my own DNS sever(s).

EDIT: Gandi is listed https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/dns-providers-who-easily-integrate-with-lets-encrypt-dns-validation/86438 so maybe I can automate a DNS-01 challenge without too much issue, I just have to switch away from certbot to one of the other tools.

It does have access to the HTTP root directories. But, it still can’t open port 80/443 when apache already has that port open.

EDIT: I guess my certbot renew just needs to be reconfigured to use a --webroot, so it doesn’t try to listen on it’s own.

Probably the comment has federated to lemmy.world, but the deletion of the comment hasn’t yet.

Looks like autoincorrect did a s/CRLs/Carla/ for you.

Technically my renews aren’t automated. I have a nightly cronjob that should renew certificates and restart services, but when the certificates need renewal, it always fails because it wants to open a port I’m already using in order to answer the challenge.

I hear there’s an apache module / configuration I can use, but I never got around to setting it up. So, when the cron job fails, I get an email and go run a script that stops apache, renews certs, and restarts services (including apache). I will be a bit annoying to have to do that more often, but maybe it’ll help motivate me to configure apache (or whatever) correctly.

Honestly, I don’t even like using the word “cheat” to describe customizing a single-player gaming experience in a way not blessed by the developers. Terrafirmacraft (and maybe even just Gregtech) isn’t cheating at Minecraft; certainly the experience isn’t “easier”.

So, yes, I will play the game is whatever way makes for the most fun for me, whether that’s “cheating” or not to you.

For experiences that aren’t single-player, including (e.g.) anything with a global leaderboard (even at third-party one), I can understand why someone might choose to cheat, but I think I could deny myself those temptations. But, I’ve never been a “simple” cheat away from the top of a leaderboard or any other sort of acclaim or reward.

Oh, don’t worry, open source (or, worse, Free Software) apps won’t be allowed on Android or Apple devices, soon. /s

I think co-ops are the way to go, but I can understand that someone “just” wanting to purchase the good/service might not see the difference between a co-op and corporation like Amazon.

I don’t think it’s a size issue really, but co-ops generally stay smaller in part due to how they are internally organized compared to a “median” corporation.

I also think that the government actually does a pretty good job at managing things; it’s just their failures are public. Private boondoggles might drive many people into bankruptcy, but they aren’t publicized any more than absolutely necessary.

I’m on Linux with an old AMD Pioneer (EDIT: AMD Radeon Vega Frontier Edition (radeonsi, vega10, ACO, DRM 3.61, 6.12.48+deb13-amd64)) video card, and I find the game playable, but just barely, and that’s after changing the Proton version to match the steamdb recommendations.

There’s some visual glitches and definitely low frame rates, but I’m through the second Axon and past the barrier.

Parrying is hard for me, but I just play on Story difficulty and still have fun.

I thought I wasn’t going to like the combat of XIII, but I ended up really quite enjoying it most of the time. I thought the support roles AI was quite good, and eventually I figured out a rhythm of switching roles that felt really good.

But, I probably should go back and play some of the 7-9, maybe even X again. I picked up 2, 3, and 5 (and the portable Nintendo consoles to play them) and never made the time to play them.

I know some are on Steam, but I’m on Linux and I don’t know how well the Proton/SteamPlay works with them. (Plus, I need to finish up Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 before I buy yet another JRPG.)

Final Fantasy X. Hands down the best entry of the franchise (fight me)

I never finished X, it felt like it was dragging on and there were too many unskippable scenes.

I actually preferred XIII, which I nearly 100%'d (I think I was one or 2 combats away from 100%) and even XIII-2 which I enjoyed, tho I thought the “post-game” was too heavy with loading screens. I never played XIII-3 (Lightning Returns).

In any case, FF VI is actually the best entry in the franchise. I know that because I played and beat it as a child. (/s)

(I was really hoping FF XV [?; road trip with the boy band] would be good, but I played about 10 hours and had nothing good to say about it.)

R-Type Final – more than 100 fighters to unlock across a branching campaign, including at least one secret stage.

I was a little disappointed with R-Type Final 2, but I might need to just play more.

Wow! Between BG3, CO:E33, and Sliksong, all the AAA lies are falling away. They don’t have to cost the user an arm and a leg, they can be beautiful works of art and love from small(ish) teams, and they can be an experience that is so rich in player choice it’s practically unique and highly replayable.

~40M copies, ~8B ppl, so ownership rates are about 0.5%.

You might meet one of the lucky 10k that learn about Stardew Valley today, and you can enable them with a gift purchase.

My solution for this feeling is to gift copies to others. I figure that worst case I support ConcernedApe and best case I help spark more Stardew joy.

(Right now, I’m between jobs, so I can’t buy for you, other readers.)

Everything 1Upsmanship puts on their “Celestial Hard Drive”.

Or, Minecraft.

When you lose a system. It responds to ping; all services are up, but you can’t find the damn thing.

So, not a number so much as a limit to your organizational skill+effort.
