A lot of this is being complicated for you by not understanding networking fundamentals. I'd suggest looking into a Network+ certification which will cover all of these basics like DNS. You don't have to actually get the cert, just going through the motions on learning the material should help a lot.

You seem to be close on grokking the whole picture and just need some of the basics that are hard to pick up from just doing things at home. A lot of work has been done to try abstract that away from consumers in order to make things easier which is making it harder for you.

Prison Architect predates Rimworld. Rimworld got shit for "copying" PA when it first came out.

See the FAQ for the Rimworld Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tynansylvester/rimworld/description

It looks a lot like Prison Architect. What's up with that?

Blame my (Tynan's) lack of art skill - especially with characters. I made the character art you see in the trailer as a stopgap, and borrowed the Prison Architect style because I'm not a good enough artist to develop a new one. They were never intended to be final. With this Kickstarter, we'll be able to get a real artist who can sit down and develop an original style for RimWorld.

I've talked with the original Prison Architect artist, Ryan Sumo, and he's fully supportive of RimWorld. We didn't share any art or code with the PA guys.

This is bad but the Fediverse is going to be just as, or even more, vulnerable to this kind of thing.

Fair enough. Personally I'd start with their documentation then: https://docs.openstack.org/install-guide/

For OS it looks like they support RHEL/CentOS, Ubuntu, Debian, and SUSE so I'd stick with one of those.

Openstack is like self-hosting your own cloud provider. My 2 cents is that it's probably way overkill for personal use. You'd probably be interested in it if you had a lot of physical servers you wanted to present as a single pooled resource for utilization.

How does one install it?

From what I heard from a former coworker - with great difficulty.

What is the difference between a hypervisor/openstack/a container service (podman,docker)?

A hypervisor runs virtual machines. A container service runs containers which are like virtual machines that share the host's kernel (more to it than that but that's the simplest explanation). Openstack is a large ecosystem of pieces of software that runs the aforementioned components and coordinates it between a horizontally scaling number of physical servers. Here's a chart showing all the potential components: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a5/Openstack-map-v20221001.jpg

If you're asking what the difference between a container service and a hypervisor are then I'd really recommend against pursuing this until you get more experience.

Maybe it should have had an amazing soundtrack like The last of Us

You can't even play the game from 2017 anymore

Good luck with that. It has some pretty difficult puzzles

Apparently I'm not up on my Mario lore

You're conflating 'country' and 'people' then. The 'country' that gave up the land had this flag: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/ae/Flag_of_the_United_Kingdom.svg/2560px-Flag_of_the_United_Kingdom.svg.png

Are you referring to the British Empire (who was a victor of WW2) or the Ottoman Empire (who no longer existed)?

Typically there's a period of responsible disclosure to give the software maintainer an opportunity to fix it before it's widely announced. After that period is up or the fix has been released the vulnerability discoverer is able to announce it and take credit for finding it.

I'm inclined to agree but you can read their stance here: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/01/beyond-platforms-private-censorship-parler-and-stack

The EFF heavily criticized AWS for removing Parler a few years ago for this reason.

My two cents is I'd say you're a 'manager' if you have the power to hire people, fire them, discipline them, and determine their pay and working conditions.

Generally a "team lead" is just a more senior individual contributor that can help guide other individual contributors. Management may listen more heavily to their opinions on the matters above but they don't have any direct control over it past advisory. Sometimes they may perform some light managerial functions like work allocations but they have no direct power to back that up.

They can't all be like the attorney general.

Fwiw if you can't scrub it off then it's probably not coming off in your food either

I smoke a cigar once every year or so and this sounds about right to me.

"Acca Dacca" killed me lol

To be fair it's in response to a guy that started off by calling the programmers lazy.
