I think they're just saying that if you're a multi billionaire and get a 50% net worth fine, you're still a billionaire once it's done.

So this makes Amazon, Microsoft and Google jumping on board the nuclear energy train. Meta would have to be the next domino surely?

Probably had leftover screens after they stopped making the 3DS and wanted to use them for something.

Bit of grocery shopping, some delicious but probably bad for me food and if I can wrangle it some FFXIV with my son and brother in law (BIL is interstate so need to make sure they're available).

An Apple TV actually fits this use case pretty well. Being Apple most providers will have native apps available for the device (they definitely have Netflix, Prime Video and Disney+), it comes with a remote but supports using other infrared remotes (you can train it to recognise specific buttons so doesn't matter what remote you use), and you can also control it from your phone (it works natively for iOS but there are Android apps that can do it too).
For casting, if you use Apple devices it's easy with AirPlay. If you use Android devices there are apps you can get that support Chromecast, however haven't ever used them personally so can't comment on their effectiveness.
And to date Apple haven't put ads into the tvOS interface. It's basically a grid of apps and you just open the one you want to watch. It's been our primary TV device for years now, and is simple enough to use that even my 60 something tech adverse mum likes using it.

That's basically what I got out of it as well. They're not trying to give the police access to our devices, they're trying to get the police to become users of Apple tech themselves.

I personally don't like to limit celebrating this to just the one day apparently 😅

For most of my internal services that are sitting behind Traefik I use step-ca which basically gives you a Let's Encrypt style certificate while working over the local network. The root CA has a long expiry (so might not be what you want if your goal Is a short lived root CA) but the actual certificates for each service are short lived (a touch over 24 hours from memory?)

What time did it go off? I was wondering this myself actually, did it go off at 3:01 or 3:00?

Wednesday and Thursday weren't bad to be fair. Today has my allergies playing up though, so not leaving the house if I don't have to!

She definitely did, thank you 😂 Even claimed second one for her mum who was with her. Looks like I need to start accumulating some more freebies for her!

I saw a similar comment in the last week or so (might have been on TikTok?) but it was specifically Japanese court that they'd said they'd never lost in. I don't know if it's accurate though, took it at face value and didn't really think much about it.

For me personally I think it has to be the new Alliance Raid. As a 10 year FFXI player I'm very much looking forward to visiting Vana'diel again, and honestly there are few things more fun in this game than day 1 alliance raids when no one knows the mechanics and gear isn't causing you to skip mechanics!
Another quiet week in game though, got my White Mage to level 80 so I've been able to equip the poetics weapon for my Aerith glam, but honestly I'm not sure I'm going to continue with it. I'm sure part of it it lack of familiarity with the class but I'm just not enjoying it like I enjoy Scholar. Admittedly having a gap closer has been super nice (I managed to gap close into a tower on Cloud of Darkness the other day that no one had taken to avoid it doing a raid wide which felt good), but I miss the flexibility Scholar gives you.
Things might have hit a plateau in game but we got our first look over the weekend at what's coming in 7.1! New alliance raids, a new alliance raid difficulty, custom deliveries, the next quests in the role quests, and of course the next part of the MSQ, just to name a few! So for this week's recap, what did you accomplish this week in game, and what part of the 7.1 patch are you most looking forward to?
Drusenija 3w ago • 100%
Not gonna lie, I didn't bother with 80 this week. Didn't have any of the stuff on hand and didn't want to spend any money on it 👀

That's not an uncommon reaction I feel once you complete the main story and are living patch to patch rather than being fully immersed in the world. It's very easy to get in a rut where you're playing as a tick the box exercise rather than actively working towards something. I know I've had nights where I've logged on and thought "okay, now what?", so complete understand where you're coming from!
But don't be afraid to take a step back and have some time away between patches if you're not finding fulfilment! 7.1 news should be dropping tomorrow so hopefully that gives you something to look forward to, but even if it doesn't, there's always plenty of other games out there that you can try if FFXIV isn't doing it for you at the moment!

Are you secretly my wife? This post sounds a lot like her 😂 She's dropping our son off to uni at the moment and will probably claim her next freebie on the way home I reckon.

If you haven't played Doki Doki Literature Club before, please don't look up anything about the game beforehand. Do take note of the warnings at the start if you feel the content might be triggering, but do play it blind if you can.

Completely get the low motivation. I feel this late into a patch it's not an uncommon thing. If you're not working on something else, getting into a rut of capping the 450 tome, get the raid tier tokens, do your custom deliveries, do Doma restoration, etc., isn't difficult. (I'm literally queuing for Expert roulette as we speak 😅).
Hopefully once the news on 7.1 starts to come out it'll peak your interest again! And if not? Don't stress 😊 Letting a couple of patches build to get a bigger hit after a break isn't a bad thing either!

It's time for the reset recap! We've got a live letter to look forward to later this week where we get our first look at what patch 7.1 will be bringing. What is your prediction on what we're going to see? How have you been getting ready for the release of 7.1? Have you gotten everything you want from the current patch yet? Let us know how your week in Eorzea has gone!

I'm in the process of putting together an Aerith glam for my white mage (cause I can't possibly start playing a new job unless I've got a glam for it I like 😂). I'm largely done with it but I'm trying to find a good weapon for it. Most white mage weapons are cane style weapons that have a decorative thing on the top but just the stick at the bottom. I want to try and find something that's more like the Guard Stick; essentially less decorative but it matches at the top and the bottom. I don't know if anything like that exists in FFXIV though. Does anyone know of a weapon that might work? (If you're not familiar with Aerith's weapons in FF7 remake which is what I'm basically trying to emulate, [this site](https://brightrockmedia.com/final-fantasy-7-remake-aerith-weapons-guide/) has pictures of all of them. Probably mild FF7 Rebirth spoilers too.) Failing that I suppose I can try to find something like the Princess Guard from the original FF7 which is more likely to exist in FFXIV. But would love to try and keep to the Remake aesthetic if I can!
Another week has flown by in Eorzea, so it's time for this week's reset recap! What have you been up to this week in the game, and what have you managed to tick off your bucket list? Also am curious if people are finding this fun or interesting. We're still a small community here on Lemmy so am trying to encourage people to post and engage a bit, but I also look back since last week's recap and not a lot has happened 😅 So share your thoughts as well on whether you this we should keep going with the recap!

As the clock ticks down to the weekly reset, it's time again for this week's Reset Recap! What did (or didn't) you achieve this week in the game? Remember if you haven't participated in The Rising event this year that you're nearly out of time, with the event finishing later this week. Get yourself a big red fan emote and enjoy a cute little quest line to celebrate another year together in Eorzea.

How has your week gone in Eorzea? What did you manage to tick off your to do list? In the week that was FFXIV news, the Materia data center was brought to its knees for a few hours late last week with all 5 servers going offline due to some issues in the data center, we got some previews at PAX of some of the new UI elements coming like chat bubbles and the raid planner, and Yoshi-P hinted at FFXIV maybe being made available for the Switch 2!

There's a ton of other interesting stuff in the interview about things like how they're tuning fight difficulty, the fact they rebalanced the jobs after they'd already finalised the current Savage tier and the fact they're expecting groups to wipe on average three times during the Alliance Raid (personally I doubt that will last long based on past experience with Myths of the Realm). But apparently we're getting 24 man savage content! How had I missed this? (And how on earth are we going to coordinate groups for it? It's hard enough to find 7 other people now for regular Savage 😅)

It's that time of the year again where anyone who's anyone with a Fantasia addiction can save themselves a little bit of money or (and let's be honest, this is more likely) get more Fantasias for the same amount of money! Plus there'll be a ton of stuff like emotes, mounts and some glamours on sale as well, so if there's anything you've been eyeing off recently, now is the time to get it on the cheap! (Well, not _right_ now, the game and the shop are still down for maintenance... but soon!)
We're going to lose a couple of hours tonight due to maintenance, so it's time for this week's reset recap! Assuming you didn't get completely hammered by the DDoSing over the last couple of days, what are you proud of getting done this week in Eorzea?

Follow the link to the Lodestone for the specifics however we've got a 7 hour maintenance planned for next week just before reset for some hot fixes and infrastructure maintenance. Make sure to check your local time and get any retainers, airships or submarines sent out before maintenance starts! And don't forget all the hunt monsters will be up after the game comes back online so expect some A trains and S rank hunts happening after maintenance.

The latest iteration of The Rising is starting next week on August 27th! Get yourself a cute Krile minion and some table lamps while you fulfil whatever task the Wandering Minstrel has for you this year! And say hi to Yoshi-P and the dev team when you see them, okay?
Lemmy is still a growing platform, and doesn't have the same number of people posting as a platform like Reddit. So let's try and change that! Today is weekly reset day, so post below about something you've managed to accomplish during the last week!

So nearly 2 months into Dawntrail's launch, the probationary data centers that were set up to help balance traffic in the post launch surge are being closed. Now that we're moving into a more normal post launch environment, how have you found the launch? If you played during Endwalker, did you experience similar queue times this time around or did you have a much smoother login experience? I know I haven't seen anywhere near as many complaints about login problems this time around, although I'm also on the Materia data center, so we don't exactly have a large population to begin with! Share your thoughts! Did SE learn from Endwalker and fix the problems with their login servers this time around do you think?
