    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I mean crypto goes up and crypto goes down. It's not just going to go to an ath in a straight line up from here. There will be dips, but hopefully this signals we're at least out of the doldrums. But yeah, it's not altogether impossible this is a false start too. If it is an end to the crypto...

    Drunk on vacation is a great way to learn they've cured cancer. I know what you mean, though. They're constantly coming out with these incredible headlines about cancer treatments that when you dig into it don't amount too much. This one is definitely different.

    Grats to everyone who didn't bitch out and sell their crypto at the bottom

    Don't forget Tales from the Darkside, Tales from the Crypt, and Friday the 13: The Series.

    Project Triune (NMS) (Not THJ we swear)

    AFAIK, no emu has been shut down by DBG, aside from THJ. And that was because they monetized. As long as this one doesn't monetize I'm sure it will be fine.

    You haven't played a lot of the emus I've played then lol. But to your point, there are plenty of emus with way more content- though they are mostly servers that have had years to build content. But they're free. I love eq emu. I've been playing them since 2004 when I quit live. They are all...

    Not a good month for self-custody. Increased phishing attempts aren't the half of it. Home addresses were divulged. There's going to be some doors getting knocked on in the near future.

    The eq emu model has fucked with a lot of heads tbh. People are used to getting a ton of (sometimes) great content for free or for optional donations, and that has set the bar to a certain extent. I think a lot of people are still subconsciously putting EQL in the emu basket, despite the fact...

    I could talk for a *really* long time about what I think good pvp means, but I don't want to derail this thread too much. Only thing I'll say is you definitely can have good pvp in EQ. I've seen it done. But as far as I know, none of the EQL devs are pvp people, so I doubt it will happen. (Not...

    Everquest Legends

    The only way to build a casual/QoL-friendly MMO *and* keep the hardcore crowd engaged long-term is to build out a ton of content and be very clever about how you structure player progression through it. EQL simply wasn’t in development long enough to do that cleanly before launch. But there’s a...

    It wasn't feedback, just an observation. Doesn't make the chart less useful. Maybe a little depressing, though.

    Not sure there's anywhere in the US where 1k is greater than 1 month's expenses... Ah yes, there's the date at the bottom. 2016 lol

    It's funny, I'm seeing the same things you are and coming to a completely different conclusion. I knew we were never going to see the emergence of a "new digital financial system free of banks and governments." That was always a libertarian pipe dream, as I've noted many times on here...

    Didn't say it was old tech. I said Bitcoin devs tend to be slow and reluctant to change. And that's true. That said it will be old tech soon if they don't get their shit together. And yeah my X feed is full of various developers complaining about having to use Kimi to patch stuff because GPT...
