Tbh, like the 3DS, will definitely get more expensive as well.

I’m hoping there will be a renaissance of smaller, low-stakes, offline capable dedicated handheld gaming/media on the go by the big boys but it’s wishful thinking at this point. I was speaking to a younger colleague the other day and one of my favourite things about the PSP/DS era of gaming was Game sharing where some games enabled you to send over a limited version of a game to a second device to play ad-hoc online multiplayer even if only one of you had the game.

This is a missing recipe in today’s gaming landscape IMO.

Ow, my back xD. I struggling to think of some other key-value mapping that’s available in the real world that works tbf.

A website is just a html page that lives on some computer somewhere and is being served by a program which tells the computer which html page to show when given a port + path to follow.

All internet connected computers have IP addresses that we can use and DNS is the phonebook that connects IP addresses to domain names. (To test this, ping google.com in terminal, then copy and paste the IP address ping shows you into your address bar).

The webserver/reverse proxy in this case is our program which tells your machine what to send and when: these are programs like traefik, caddy, Apache, nginx et al.

External computer: “I want the contents of 10.11.12.13:443/some/path” [DNS Machinery and Tubes] Hosting machine: “Someone wants the contents of port 443 and some/path. Found the contents, let me send these back to them” [Internet machinery and tubes] External computer: “I have received the contents”

Yeah, SD2Vita is the goto and works pretty well with micro-SD
This but PS Vita*
I use Caddy with the WebDAV extension. Works beautifully.
  • Devil May Cry 3
  • Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
  • Battlefield Bad Company 2
  • Battlefield 3
  • Final Fantasy VII: OG and Remake
  • Breath of the Wild
  • A Link To The Past
  • FIFA 07 and Pro Evolution Soccer 6
  • Mirror’s Edge

I think these are very much the games that just have immaculate systems that are simple and rewarding, yet coupled with a layer of polish that when all the parts are combined, you’re left with something even greater.

??? What’s wrong with a simple cron job / systemd timer with a bash script?
I am one of those anecdotal people. I want to play the Last of Us Factions online, I refuse to pay for PS+, therefore I do not play my PS5 at all. Every other game already has a PC version that runs and looks better and supports modding…it’s a no-brainer.

I only use it when I’m learning something very new and very dense and that’s to stand up an example based on a context I’m interested in or already familiar.

It helps me identify parts of the docs to focus on more quickly.

Otherwise no, I’m getting better without tools
