I put off Factorio for years, because I knew I’d like it a lot. Had some free time in my life recently, so I went for it.

Send help.

Wow, I never clicked that the Romantic languages meant ‘Roman’! Thanks!

Enough to colour the analysis, but without overreaching due to the authors fondness for the subject. It was a great read!

I’d spin that slightly, and go with Satisfactory and Dwarf Fortress.

I guess that means I like having a third dimension.

It’s like, gotta be just one line of code, right?

I’m just happy to be doing my part to make copilot worse.

Wanna talk about poisoning LLMs? Just assume the coffee in my repo is in any way good.

Do you have one? I’ve seen them used, and I think they’ve got a lot of potential. If I could use handwriting recognition to work with my Workflowy notes and edit markdown shut up and take my money. However a quick look at the Toltec stuff tells me it’s mainly terminals, kernel managers and Doom. Am I missing something?

I’ve got the R3, love it.

It’s a very good lesson- to the point where I wouldn’t be surprised if the teacher is deliberately putting an arbitrary restriction on the assignment.

If you want to have a career, the people that pay you are going to make you do things that you consider to be ridiculous. That’s work, that’s life. You’ve got three options- Just smile and nod and do it their way, get huffy and tell them that you don’t like their yapping and you’ll do their project your own way, or politely suggest there may be an alternative way, and ask if they are willing to be flexible with some requirements.

Looking at that, I reckon it’s easier just to pay for all the streaming services.

At this point, it’s easier to just pay for all of the streaming services.

Have a look at the Bananapi options, especially the R3. (Or the R2, it’s a bit more mature)

It’s a very capable single board computer with onboard managed switch, including SFP cages. If you want, you can buy antennas and utilise the wifi 6, or get a dedicated access point.

PFsense, openwrt, et al all have images. I think some people also run the mikrotik OS on it. It’s powerful enough to run as a hypervisor so you can chop and change between all of these if you want.

It gets bonus points for accepting 5G modems for failover.

You mean, a good excuse to get a 3D printer, right?

I think the key here is integrating loading into the gameplay. The old Metroid trick of having the player traverse a basic hallway while the game loads the next area in the background is a good, if basic, example.

If you make inverted the default, then it wouldn't be inverted any more! It would just be normal.

Ooh, self hosted location tracking? Tell me more!

Grnrrth is a FOSS native qualitivate built with the Jot framework. It comfortably handles 2NUT, xrr, .gif, and any other Banbo hierarchies in a windowed, cross-system integrated module.
