Sometimes you just cant beat the classics.

It’s not as though that power structure behind the economic system is leveraged to dismantle and destroy competing economic systems or labor rights or anything. Yeah, totally and completely separate and never the twain shall meet. The CIA definitely didn’t use economic terrorism to force countries to submit to US cartels business demands.

Nothing has ever happened, like say, the US corporations using their wealth to dominate the court systems and laws of other counties to do something like put media “pirates” calling themselves “The Pirate Bay” in prison for things that were legal in their own country to enforce the US’s own draconian capitalistic IP laws.

What an absolute crock of shit dude get a grip. Capitalism is oligarchy by any other name.

Underrated because the game itself was often kind of lacking in terms of solid foundational RPG systems…

Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

Pretty good attempt at putting a Middle Earth type world ahead a few hundred years in the midst of an Industrial Revolution.

Really thoughtful stuff like the labor exploitation of certain races like orcs, with quests like a half-orc you can help start a labor union or help the shop boss shut down the nascent union.

Twice now I have tried to make a top level comment and accidentally responded to a thread instead… Anyway…

Instead of leaving this deleted I will agree wholeheartedly that while I personally am not the biggest fan of the TES series they have some of the most deep, complex and (somewhat) organized lore there is.

I just wish they would hire better script writers and weren’t so afraid of locking content behind player choices. Always having every option available just feels a little silly.

Wait Raft has lore and world building?? I love that game but I never even paid that close attention. Guess I need to go look now.

Here’s the paper published in Nature.

However, it’s worth noting that Nature has had to retract studies before:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nature_(journal)#Retractions

From 2000 to 2001, a series of five fraudulent papers by Jan Hendrik Schön was published in Nature. The papers, about semiconductors, were revealed to contain falsified data and other scientific fraud. In 2003, Nature retracted the papers. The Schön scandal was not limited to Nature; other prominent journals, such as Science and Physical Review, also retracted papers by Schön.

Not saying that we shouldn’t trust anything published in scientific journals, but yes, we should wait until more studies that replicate these results exist before jumping to conclusions.

Which docker container do you use, if you don’t mind me asking. Also, how complicated would you rate the setup? I have a degree in network admin and run multiple Linux servers and docker containers with manually created docker network bridges so they can freely communicate with one another, to give an idea of my knowledge base. Honestly the only thing I haven’t done before yet that makes me nervous is setting up a reverse proxy to expose the endpoint to the internet and connect it to my owned domain name.

I didn’t even know they had it set up as an apt repository for Ubuntu. Very interesting.

I don’t even really plan to use any bridges, as I understand it those are for if you want to pass messages from other services through your matrix server. I would rather keep those separate personally, even though I understand certain benefits, including having all your messaging in one application instead of numerous.

I always heard that rolling out an initial Matrix instance isn’t terrible, especially with ansible and/or docker, but I also have heard that a lot of updates have breaking changes and that updating your server is less simple.

As someone who runs your own Matrix server, would you agree with this sentiment or disagree and why? I have considered rolling out my own many times but get discouraged by those who say keeping it updated is kind of a nightmare. For example, a private tracker I am a member of used to have a Matrix server and an IRC server, but they eventually dumped the Matrix server entirely to reduce complexity as well as the fact that fewer people used it.

That moment when you realize you’re not in [email protected] and people are talking about an entirely different kind of top than you were thinking.

This is dope, though, I also thought top was just stuck in time.

I understand that. I actually used the snap one for a long time but then was having issues with it crashing a lot and switched over. I doubt most have the same issues I was having.

I was just pointing out that if you want to make it difficult for yourself, you can haha.

I mean you can still get that experience on Ubuntu if you want to install Firefox as an apt package instead of being forced to install it as a snap package.

There is no spoon.

I Think You Should Linux with Tim Robinson

You’re looking at a nude egg.

It would ship with a copy of the egg game.

Sorry I spaced on answering this but I am unfamiliar with funkwhale so I don’t really know!

G.L.O.S.S. comes to mind. Too short lived.

DD Linux (Danny Devito Linux)

So anyway, I started blasting

True, but the size of those early generations it’s easier to fit a standard size SSD in.

Probably a somewhat popular opinion in the Linux crowd already, but I think we should be pressing companies to find better ways to manage anti-cheats than kernel-level anti-cheat anyway. I’m glad I don’t play games like that because I don’t like how it works at all.
