It’s been a bit since I saw the original behind the scenes vid or whatever it was, what was the context?
kieron115@startrek.websiteto Games@lemmy.world•Is Baldurs Gate 3's voice acting so great that it ruined other games for me?English13·15 days agoI think the silent protagonist choice is valid in more of “sandbox” story like BG3. Speaking for myself, voiced protagonists tend to “lock” me into a specific role. I absolutely love the voice acting for Geralt of Rivia but when I play a witcher game I’m not inserting myself into the game, I’m becoming Geralt and making choices based on how I believe Geralt would make them.

kieron115@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•In the latest Windows 11 preview build, Microsoft removed the “bypassnro” command, which let users skip signing into a Microsoft Account when installing Windows.English8·15 days ago“The bypass uses a CXH (cloud experience host) URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) string during the OOBE to invoke the hidden local account setup screen.” this had to be data mined or something yeah.
one of these creepy bastards got inside of my soap dispenser brush thing for doing the dishes. just threw the entire brush away D=

kieron115@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish1·24 days agooh okay, interesting. well, you could always use the web browser on your phone/ipad i guess. not a great experience but i know for a fact that plex works on ios in chrome at the very least.
kieron115@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish2·24 days agoPlex has pretty bad DV “support” as an example. AFAIK it will only play back dolby vision profiles that have the HDR10 compatibility mode or whatever. Any time I get an older DV file I have to play it through some Android TV app.
kieron115@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish9·24 days agoEase of setup was how I just got one techie friend and two non-techie gamer friends to set up Plex servers and we had libraries shared to each other within 15-30 minutes. I don’t want to think about explaining VPNs and SSL to them for the alternatives.
kieron115@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish4·24 days agoPlex still offers that option, it’s just buried in the settings.
kieron115@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish7·24 days agoi’m not sure why it would do this, i’ve never had any issues with watching plex while the internet is down (in fact that was one of my original uses for it, to have movies and tv in a building without internet). I don’t have it turned on but I do know you can go into server settings -> network and set a list of IPs/subnets that can access without any authorization at all. That lets you use plex without even having a plex account afaik.
kieron115@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in AprilEnglish8·25 days agoAs a techie I hate this answer but it’s hard to beat a Roku with Plex from an ease of use standpoint. My 70+ year old parents have no problem navigating it.
