I probably need to go back and replay to make a more objective opinion, but I remember the feeling of Gen 2 with the day/night cycle, breeding and baby Pokémon, and then when Pokémon Crystal came out with animated sprites during battle. Definitely my favorite.

I’m curious to see how they’ve made the gameplay. I’ve briefly played the first one on 3DS and it really didn’t appeal to me. Felt like it was targeted to someone much younger, but this sequel with all the coffee references and references to the movie feels more like a nod to the movie which did really well with old timer fans.

They did this with the the Spyro trilogy remake. The cart contains only the first game and you have to download the others. Kind of defeats the purpose of buying physical.

I currently use a custom filter/rewrite in AdGuard Home (similar to pihole).

An alternative to running a central dns server is to use mDNS. You can install a daemon on each server that you want to access via hostname, and then clients know that ServerName.local domains should be resolved using mdns. They send out a dns query to a local multicast IP, the daemon on the servers receives the query and the appropriate one responds. By design it’s local only.

How does that work with stop lights? I'd say most stop lights are longer than 1 minute, so does everybody turn their car off while waiting? Does that cause a noticeable delay when the light changes?

This happened earlier today to me, too. My comment ended up in the wrong thread and ended up completely out of context. There are definitely some issues to work out.
