I was a bit confused when you said local co-op. It implies 2 computers on the same local network(connected to the same router, no internet connection required). I think the term you’re looking for is split screen gaming.
When I looked at pictures of Spelunky games like Clonk and Liero popped into mind, I think there are options for split screen multiplayer in those games, they’re old school PvP games.
Scored myself a bidet during that TP shortage at the beginning of COVID lockdown and it’s been a game changer. Get one because your butt will especially thank you after a spicy Thai or Indian night. Spicy poo and mud butt? What are those?
Several game servers such as Minecraft and Terraria
VM running Volvo software to troubleshoot my cars.
**My hardware:**I used to run it all on a Supermicro x9drd-7ln4f-jbod with dual Xeon E5-2670 v2 with 16x16GB ECC ram and 6x 3TB disks in raidz2 for storage and 2x 60gb Intel SSDs for OS. I started with less and upgraded towards this configuration but it was consuming 300 watt idle which was just unacceptable.
So earlier this year I upgraded to an ASRock Rack x470D4U with Ryzen 7 5700x and 4x32GB ECC (non-registered) ram and 6x 2TB SSDs in raidz2. 1 ssd is in the nvme slot on the motherboard, 4 are in a 4x4 bifurcation card in the 16x slot and 1 more in a 4x riser. All PCIe lanes of the CPU are used. This setup is not possible with an AMD CPU with integrated GPU since it will take up 4 PCIe lanes (you can guess how I know). It uses about 20 watt idle without any containers and VMs running. I initially didn’t want to move away from Supermicro but the ASRock Rack motherboard has IPMI so I’m not missing out on much.
Behind the Bastards, a deep dive into the various shit people of history. Episode one is Saddam Hussein: Erotic Novelist.
There’s nearly 700 episodes, and I’ve yet to run tio a dud. Loads of great guests. My only gripe is that it’s a touch Amerocentric, but other than that I’d recommend it to basically anyone. Not kid friendly, in case that wasn’t obvious.
I’m from the US. While I have travelled to locales where they are commonplace, I never actually tried one. When lockdown and the tp crisis started, however, I purchased one online. I now hate having to use any lavatory that doesn’t have a bidet.
Q - Doesn’t it feel weird? A - No. Some people are worried that it may feel sexual. It doesn’t. It’s just a localized shower on your ass, which is something you hopefully do regularly.
Q - Won’t it just push detritus away from the epicenter and make a mess? A - It can, if the bidet has narrow spray. Mine does this. Just do a quick shimmy that makes the jet draw a decreasing radius spiral.
Q - Doesn’t everything get wet? A - Some bidets have air dryers, but in the absence of, yes. Keep tp in the lav to address this. The quick wipe to address this still saves a ton of tp.
I should clarify that I live in a remote area where a lot of people are homophobes. Anything directed towards one’s ass is, as the kids would say, sus af to these folks.
This is true for quite a few other things as well. For instance, “hertz” really just means “per second”. However, it’s easier to write/type “Hz” instead of “s^-1”.
2 spare drives and a safe deposit box ($10/yr). Swap the bank box once a month or so. My upstream bandwidth isn’t enough to make cloud saves practical, and if anything happens, retrieving the drive is faster than shipping a replacement, nevermind restoring from cloud.
Of course, my system is a few TB, not a few dozen.
