Rant: Frustration About Current State of Games Companies

Terrible people have produced magnificent "content" since Oog and Tharg first painted on cave walls. I love the work of Wagner, even though I'm not a Nazi. Fan of Lovecraft even though his standards are equally shitty. I adore American Psycho even though B E Ellis comes across as an utter tool. Picasso was a womanizing prick, boardering on paedophile. Great painter though.

Feel free to vote with your wallet, but if you become too sensitive to the moral and ethical views of people, or "some" of the people working for companies, you'll miss out on some masterpieces.

Having said that, I won't buy any Kelloggs products because fuck Kelloggs. Does that make me a hypocrite? Maybe a little, but we all need our lines in the sand.

I tested by using different DNS servers (OpenDNS) which worked fine, then permanently resolved it by installing unbound on my pihole and using that instead.

Tl;dr it was DNS

It's always DNS

Also, if someone writes a patch to enable HDMI as a separate graphical monitor the uses for this increase massively

I'd also allow multicast, ICMP (ping) and DNS between your vlans as a minimum depending on what they're used for.

You reached the end
