A odd blessing of the mess that is IP law, but someone could comfortably make a mass effect hentia gotcha game with little consideration for who ever owns not hentia mass effect.

Til Owlcat is making an Expanse based game!

That’ll be exciting!

220,000 signatures better spent on the stop killing games initiative then hoping EA will “do the right thing”.

A finger on the venture capital monkey paw curls.

First find a way to track your costs. Measure how much it costs to give it away (to your self and people that support you starting it as a buisness). Do market analysis based on those number. How much do you need to support both your operatiinal costs of hosting and devoloper time paid with a fair wage, and what does compare to how much consumers are currently paying. If that looks good invest in an accountant and lawyer to see what the buisness plan viability might look like and set up a LLC. From there look for partners that can help you create a sustainable buisness and fill in skill gaps you dont have, or hire out the rest.

Thats it.

Even better make it a community coop so that the skilled labor and community can have actual ownership in the org to help balance out thr risk and encourage litteral buyin.

The shit shovel too AK guide is still on my favorite guides that were floating around on the interwebz

Restructure and invesetment is almosy always more sensible then cuts. Cuts are for when things are so bad that that are intended to lower the quality and growth of services.

Conservitives keep trying to run gov agemcies like bloated investor driven companies and it really shows

Off shore wind and tidal makes more sense for Japan to me for sure, but solar everywhere we can. Rooftops, garages, bus stops, solar fencing, agrovoltaics, etc.

Highspeed train to plane route?

Oh lol I thought over roads, and thought “yeah that would be a good idea in some places”, but the “SOLAR FREAKING ROADWAYS!” blasted in my head lol.

I use VMs for OS isolated and hardware isolation. I run containers on top of OSs for apps.

That said I use Harvester so I can run containers on bare metal AND VMs as containers.

I’m 100% biased towards this. It’s really cool to see a system get frankenstiened or frankenstein a system from code. It’s like getting to leap frog from all of their work without needing to ever explicitly knowing or working with each other.

The real deciding factor isn’t whether to automate or not but what is the expected technical skills of who expect to contribute or maintain it the future.

So I personally layer levels to it prefering the common automation where applicable. So tofu for infra and spin up. Ansible for OS config and network equipment. Kubernetes for everything else with a fallback to tofu for some apps that have no k8s API but a good tofu provider.

With that people can actually piecemeal what they want and where they want it if some underlying assumption changed (it’s no longer bare metal or aws, it’s Ubuntu or SuSE now, it’s RKE2 or it’s GKE now etc)

That said for bare metal I actually skip tofu and do a cloud native bare metal management service like TinkerBell or Metal3, and that’s really only if it’s worth it.

The other, when you see it work it’s beautiful, thing about the approach. GitOps. Watching what was a thousand shadow IT ops become PRs through automated testing and review is really magical. Coming from a IT back ground for life saving infrastructure the stress difference between the old hat way and this is really hard to understate.

This is truly an amazing guide on building resilient systems. It’s so common for people to ignore human based failure domains too!

That said some of the early recommendations suggest fully mapping dependencies such as system accounts, payment accounts, etc. I’ve looked at that from the “asCode” side but always felt quite lacking. With digital twin modeling of an orginization being a highly academic work (how do you truly capture the reality right?) and smart contracts such DAOs being a heavy tool for enforcement. I was just wondering if you have recommendation for anything or templates?

If not I might try to templatize something based on those lessons myself just to see if there is an quick start way for people to do this.

I was too. Reading comments here I was like “damn I know it’s a common critique of Christian churches discouraging critical thinking and independence but damn we have some militent atheist in this thread”.

Thank you for the comment I was just full going with the wrong info

It keeps you in first person even when using workstations and such

Right?! I think I need more aggressive veganism rather than just meat cells because of the power usage. But you have to get negative green house gases for a while to get the temp to actually reverse.

I’ve been aiming for reasonable space myself which is crazy hard to get much of anything else so far

I don’t think the space upgrades are needed to “make the world a better place” both IRL and in game. The main focus is to save the earth.

Wow! I didn’t even know that could happen!

Oh yeah. ELF is always reforming for me too. Slow and steady isn’t what they are wanting lol

The meta game project is super fun kind of Easter egg

I didnt know it was browser based too until I made this post actually. It runs great on my steam deck, but the mobile browser experience is pretty good

I mention per capita because pollution per person that is living because of that system is just a more fair metric to me. It also mean that on a responsibility level people with a higher amount of pollution contribution have a higher responsibility to do something about per person.

Now the question we were trying to answer: “is the US being left behind?”

Still hasn’t been answered, which sure linkages, but what is the delta between the US trend and the EU, China, India, North and Southern Africa, Central and South America, and Canada?

If the rest of the world is seemingly blazing ahead on renewables, public transport, and EVs and their trends of per capita pollution generation is on a down word trend at a statistically significant rate then the US then the hypothesis would seem supported. If, however, it’s not or the inverse is even true then the hypothesis would seem to be untrue in this regard. A fuzzier metric to compare in this would be standard of living as well, since how well people are living based on their per capita pollution generation to me also shows a maturity of the model (and in this context would be if the US was sliding backing into preindustrial society the previous metric (pollution per pop) would show that as a huge success but few would call it that).

Also India has a heavy textile industry, so water usage and pollution is a big unfortunate part of that, but it’s one reason why we in the western world went from spinning and sowing taking up a significant part of people’s daily lives to clothes being so cheap they are disposed of by the tonnage based on fashion trends.

Both makes sense. Green house gases are probably the more pressing concern of ecosystem collapse

And the trend?

I mean what does that break out to in terms of per capita and what is the year over year trend?

I do love the idea of a chill ecosim with a global domination/liberation piece tied in. I bet that would be fun tbh

I use ingresses like traefik and the gateway API leaving my cluster. Then a wire guard tunnel to my DMZ to get to those. With keyclock for SSO.

I want to try Teleport for finer grained access then vpn but thats a future project
