For a Stardew Valley type RPG, check out Little-Known Galaxy. I haven't gotten far in its story but it's been pretty fun.

For more traditional RPGs, I enjoyed Cross Code, though it is a bit grindy if you want to 100%.

Sea of Stars also has a great story.

For games with voice acting check out Kingdom Come Deliverance and its sequel.

The Forgotten City. More of an adventure game but has good story.

Only if you define it.

const that = this

+1 for Backblaze. They have a convenient backup software too that works great. I backup my parents laptop using it, and use their S3 storage for my NAS backups.

A popular EHR cloud service that we use has a developer portal where operations such as logging in or entering two-factor codes would take upwards of 2 minutes to process.

When I asked our rep about it they went "eh it's normal".

This same company designed a XML SOAP API where if you request too much data, it just returns a HTTP 200 with no content. No error message or formatted SOAP reply, just completely nonsensical response.

I hate this company but there's literally very few choices in this space.

You do if your org's Bitwarden goes down because "organization suspended". Welcome to my Sunday.

The rng mechanics are definitely frustrating for some but the game is way deeper. Getting to 46 rolls the credits but you are left with so many unanswered questions. Some people stop there and feel satisfied, but others are curious about the world.

My thoughts are to try to push through the initial frustration with rng on the drafting side. You'll eventually find that there are Roguelite mechanics to help you along, and it will feel less rng-dependent.

This would depend on whether the limit is defined as ingress or egress or both. For example AWS has free ingress traffic from the internet but there is a cost for egress traffic to the internet.

A better solution would be to find a unmetered service, which means that you have a fixed transfer speed (e.g. 500 Mbit) but have unlimited bandwidth. OVH offers this in their VPS products.

Who read this in the Disco Elysium voice?

Using a normal Google account it has a bunch of checkmarks on https://gemini.google.com/u/1/apps but this is not available on my Workspace account.

Best news I've heard all day.

The fiber we use at our datacenter is quite flexible but still gets damaged if you bend it too far. To roll it like they describe you would still want to have a fairly large drum (probably like 3-4 inches in diameter) which would make it pretty bulky for a small drone.

Since Stargate is my go-to scifi I'm kinda offended at the "doesn't take itself too seriously". Sure it's not as hard on the science as The Expanse (you know, except for the magic portals to other stars), but it feels like it takes itself pretty seriously. There are obvious bottle episodes that were probably written for other shows and shoe-horned in because they were cheap to buy and produce.

For #2, I think this would get pretty old pretty fast, not to mention that they have to fit everything into runtime constraints. Every new planet the team spends months researching the new language. Sure, you could handwave it (we found a Goa'uld translator just laying around), but that would be back to just one language. Since the Stargate presents an instant transportation rather than the days/months/years of starship travel it would make sense that languages stay fairly consistent as people move from planet to planet.

For #3, they pretty much handwave this in SG-1 as the majority of planets in the Milky Way were repopulated by the ancients in their image, and others were transferred from Earth.
