That doesn’t make it ok.

Do the engineers get to see a proportional return on this?

I used to have respect for those people, but now I just see them as suckers aiding the enemy.

Not bias, but I was surprised to find out how Wikipedia is censoring information surrounding ChrisChan.

All of the articles mentioning him in English just say he’s an internet personality, and his English Wikipedia page has been removed.

That kind of censorship doesn’t sit will with me. What else are they keeping from us?

That’s unfortunately a dealbreaker for me. I have a free phone from some company I’ve never heard of and I don’t plan on buying a new one. Hopefully we will see more progress on mobile operating systems in the coming years.

Quality- down

Quantity- down

Profits- UP UP UP

Useful idiots- PROUD PROUD PROUD

I wish we lived in a society where we made fun of idiots for getting ripped off. There’s just so many of them though that it’s seen as normal and we’re the weird ones if we don’t go along with it.

The elitism surrounding ground beef, cheese, beans, and tortillas is always amusing.

I bet you also think less or more of people based on how they like their steak.

Sure bud.

Not ever since they got rid of the $1 beef burrito.

Taco bell is scamcity just like the rest of them.

Probably on price.

Taco bell is hella overpriced, but I’m sure that just gives an excuse to the other scumbags to charge even more. I’m always disgusted at the prices food trucks charge vs. the quality of food they shit out.

Useful idiots gonna useful idiot ¯_(ツ)_/¯

If you don’t look for avenues around literally everything “default”, you’re being scammed.

This is unfortunately true. I’m glad some people realize it, but I wish we didn’t have to.

This abuse needs to end. Heads are going to roll.

We still need security updates.

All corporations suck fucking donkey dick because consumers are morons.

Yep. There’s no such thing as competition any more.

Tech companies are just gas stations across the street from each other.

I disagree. That would’ve just been more garbage like with the xbox.

I came here specifically to ask about alternatives to Android now that google is becoming too abusive in the relationship.

Thanks. I’m probably doing something wrong here.

When I try to connect while self-hosting, I get stuck at “Connecting to update server” when Runescape is loading in the client window.

In ~/.local/share/2009scape/config.json, I have:

{
  "ip_management": "[VPN INTERNAL IP]",
  "ip_address": "[VPN INTERNAL IP]",
  "world": 1,
  "server_port": [VPN FORWARDED PORT],
  "wl_port": 43595,
  "js5_port": 43595,
  "ui_scale": 1,
  "fps": 0
}

I’ve made sure the changes persist by either setting the file to read-only, or just avoiding changing the server setting at the game client launcher.

The only change I’ve made for the server was changing 2009scape-master/docker-compose.yml. I put the VPN port to the left side and left everything else the same.

version: '3.3'
services:
  app:
    build: .
    container_name: "2009scape_app"
    depends_on:
      - database
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - "2009scape_app:/app"
    ports:
      - "[VPN FORWARDED PORT]:43595"

Sorry if I come across as a novice. I’m still learning and any help is always appreciated.

Thanks. It could be nothing, but I’m also thinking it might be an issue on my end from improperly changing configurations while trying to get self hosting to work.

I just don’t know enough so I’m going to keep fiddling with it. I’ll keep your advice in mind and not focus too much on the warning while figuring this out.

I’m having a lot of issues, but I don’t really know what I’m doing either.

Right now, when I try to run it on my machine, I get this error saying that I can’t connect to google then asking if I’m offline. I haven’t had this error before when I tried getting it to work, but it’s where I am now.

Ultimately, I’d like to reach a point where I can host it on my own machine with a VPN and port forwarding so other people can connect from the outside.
