Fun fact, this is also true of crypto and NFTs. The more people know about them, the more skeptical they become.

Almost like they’re all scams.

The answers about using Dockerfiles are absolutely correct, but if you’re looking for a quick and simple solution that will work locally, you can always just use the “commit” docker command. This basically saves the current state of a container as a new image. You can then run new containers from that image as needed.

I mean, vaporware would require it to fail to manifest. There is a game. You can play it right now. Has it delivered on everything they promised? Absolutely not. But that was never the definition of vaporware. And, paradoxically, what’s there, despite being far reduced from the theoretical scope, is also one the most technically impressive games ever made. Entire planets in a complete solar system that you can traverse without a single loading screen. Not even a disguised one. It’s also, y’know, a buggy janky mess that still lacks many core gameplay features.

Like, there’s so much that you could legitimately criticise about Star Citizen that resorting to the both meaningless and innacurate claim of vaporware just shows an extreme lack of imagination. If you want to be critical go for it, but surely you can come up with something more coherent than that?

The airship is what sold me. I’ve wanted ships in Minecraft for as long as I’ve been playing Minecraft, both because it’s cool, and because I think survival games would really benefit from the idea of a mobile base. Being able to take your home with you is such a huge deal and really bridges the gap between the “cosy” and “adventure” aspects of these games.

This game looks awesome. People who’ve gotten their hands on it are saying great things.

But in absolutely no way should you pre-order it.

Some absolute gem of a human being decided to express their opinion that people shouldn’t be out in public if they’re “planning to have a mental breakdown” because it’s so embarrassing for everyone around them to be seen having to comfort a friend who is going through a hard time.

I think my favourite part was “planning to have a mental breakdown” as if that’s something that people plan.

Like, yeah, let me just check my calendar for the day. Yeah, I’ve got lunch with Josh at 12:30, sales meeting at 2:00, mental breakdown at 3:00, panic attack at 6:00. Man, my day is packed!

Grow up.

Wild thing to say after expressing one of the most childish opinions I’ve ever seen.

BRB ADDING THIS TO MY ZOMBOID SERVER IMMEDIATELY

I’ve been spending a little more time with Forever Winter.

Its very definitely early access; not the bullshit “We’re releasing the game, but calling it early access so you can’t complain about any bugs you find” stuff you get now but actual real old school Minecraft style early access where you’re basically getting alpha builds straight from the developer.

That said, it’s in much better shape than it was when I first looked into it (maybe a year ago?). Game is really fun to play, unbelievably tense, but without being too punishing. I think they’re really starting to zero in on that Dark Souls sweet spot where dying sucks, but not in a way that actually sets you back all that much. The stealth gameplay feels good, and getting out with a haul of loot is intensely satisfying.

Plus the art design is unbelievably good.

Instead you can screw it up by having too many commas or not enough. Hardly that much of an improvement.

Yeah, this is my biggest annoyance with JSON. As a data structure it’s very elegant, but it only really makes sense to people who know how to code, and without the ability to add comments you have to rely heavily on external documentation to make it readable to most users.

I’m not that familiar myself, had to check the docs for most of that.

Ahhh… I had wondered if issuing the info command without a package would issue for all packages, but the docs seemed to suggest otherwise. So, pretty much an rm -rf / then.

Best I can tell they were trying to remove all packages that depended on a specified package, but fucked up the syntax?

Apk del --purge removes a package with its dependencies. Rather than specify the package directly, they’ve provided the output of one command piped through another. The first command is apk info -R which would in theory give the reverse dependencies of a package, if they’d given one. The second command is an awk statement that just grabs only the first column of each line that gets piped into it. I’m not sure why it would take 60 minutes to resolve though, since I’m pretty sure apk info -R with no package specified would produce no usable output. Also, ctrl-c exists.

Seems like you could just ditch the LLM and keep the therapist at that point.

That would require an AI to be able to correctly judge maladaptive thinking from healthy thinking.

Actually the biggest factor was most likely the development of language, which probably required certain evolutionary traits in order to be possible. With language, collaboration and cooperation become much easier, which leads to fire and cooking and other ideas like that. You get to writing things down a lot later.

I came here to say this exact same thing. Videogames are an art form, and the history of that art should be preserved, both the successes and the failures. People should be able to look back on what was a hit and what was flop, on the ideas that worked and the ones that didn’t, on the well made games and the badly made games. All of it matters, all of it is part of the same story.
