I’m about 40 hours into Trails To Azure and it’s been a blast going through The Legend Of Heroes and the Trails series in order.


I have a small setup for some self hosted apps and media.

  • Beelink Mini S.
  • 2 external 5TB drives.
  • A USB fan used as an exhaust because the SSD inside gets a bit warm.

I think total power is about 30W.



I think you do need an account (which could be trials) because you have to use an ARL or your credentials to login to Deemix with.

I personally pay for a Deezer family plan and just use offline play mainly for my car.

From what I remember MP3DownloadNet uses the Deezer API to download MP3s and FLAC. I used to collect music with this site before it all the ads but it seems like it’s still working.


What quality are you getting from downloading from Spotify?

Personally, I use Deezer + Deemix to download FLAC for offline play and it’s great!


For me, I subscribe to Deezer (or you can do a trial) and run Deemix which is able to download the music in MP3 or FLAC. It directly downloads the music using Deezer’s API.

As far as organizing it goes, I typically just host it with Plex or a Subsonic player like Navidrome.


For downloading music in bulk, I personally subscribe to Deezer and then run Deemix in Docker which allows me to download offline audio in FLAC. I then serve those FLAC using Plex and Navidrome.


This is what I ended up doing last year and it’s been great.


Ever? That sounds too good to be true. Especially with that much RAM.

-edit-

Oh wow, I see their always free tier and it’s true. Impressive!

This looks more like Steam where users actually download and install the games.


I’m usually a lot of what others are posting. One of my favorites so far has been HumHub. It’s a social media platform that’s like an old-school Facebook before all the news and ads. Currently have about 20ish members and it made available just for my large extended family. A lot of us already left Facebook so it’s nice to have a similar set of features just for us without outside influences.


I was going to suggest FFVI as well! I would also suggest the Trails in the Sky series as the first 2 games focus on the female protagonists Estelle.


I don’t play games while my son is awake (ever) because why wouldn’t I want to spend time with him 🐥. I usually get to sneak in my hour or two while he’s asleep at night. My PC is in the den so I enjoy sitting next to him in bed while to play games for a bit.

I am looking forward to when he’s old enough to start with retro games like the original Mario Bros!


During the lockdowns my son was born. What’s really rekindled my love for gaming was not a particular game, but how I gamed. Getting a Steam Deck totally changed things for me and made it really convenient to access my gaming library.

The first thing I did with it was not actually play new titles but visit my backlog of older JRPG games that I had missed out on (specifically the Trails series).

Gaming at my desk where I worked wasn’t the same as gaming on the couch or next to my son while he was sleeping. Sounds silly but it’s made it much more enjoyable!
