I get the BG3 usage of narration due to the DnD setting and DMs narrating the story. Spoon feeding is not acceptable and is insulting to the player. I remember Deus Ex very well along with others like System Shock. The world they put you in can be confusing and unfamiliar at first glance and takes time to get involved in.

Unpopularopinion posting…. what do you normally like to play? I didnt enjoy BG3 either but I didnt care for the other Baldurs Gate games mostly because of the setting and characters.

Good tools are expensive and meant to last a lifetime, maybe more. A cheap tap and die set is a blessing for anodized sheet metal like in a computer case. Cheap materials, cheap tools.

Tin snips and a metric size tap and die. Youre right that a lot of cases have proprietary or non standard power supply mounts. The only guarantee that I could fit anything, including motherboards, in some cases was to get a template and do it myself.

Sorry, you wouldnt and didnt mean to imply that. I was suggesting that port forwarding is a fairly easy task and if one is confident in their ability to do that, than they should be able to complete a PiHole install.

Your drive. Get a new one, like today, get your info off that old drive and replace it.

PiHole runs great on older Raspberry Pi’s(I am still using a pi3). Older models are still very easy to get and a readily available from the approved resellers list.

I felt the same way about youtube, streaming, shopping and general browsing: too many ads. Ruins the content. I set up a pi-hole as an experiment to see if it would do what it said and what others said about it. Manage your expectations here. Pi-hole works well for blocking a lot of static information and ads in your browser and a lot of apps on iOS and Android. It does not block video ads on Youtube or Hulu, it does not block ads for Roku or Firestick or Smart TV apps for example, it just does not work because of the technical limitations of how the PiHole software is designed. Using a regular PC with adblock browser extension installed as well gets rid of 99% of ads including video ads from adcdns. PiHole is incredibly easy to setup and install, the pay off in quality of life is enormous. I cannot recommend it more to someone that has a little networking knowledge base. If you can figure out how to port forward and run a handful of command lines you can complete a pihole setup in an hour.

After a quick search: Izatcloud is qualcomm extended satellite positioning, which may be a different version of GPS. But not entirely sure, here is a privacy related article about it. https://restoreprivacy.com/qualcomm-denies-unlawful-user-location-data-collection-on-phones/

Nardwuar, The Human Serviette. He does interviews with musicians, since the 80s at some point, always comes correct with great facts and tidbits about who he is interviewing. Its his response when the artist inevitably asks him: “How did you know?”

“You’re xxxxxx we have to know.”
