It could be interesting with something like the old Pharaoh game and its receding riverbed farming, but you'd have to balance that compared to costs of resourcing in Factorio - or offer some reasonably simple way for the player to protect their resourcing operations against the rising lava.
My guess is that drilling is going to cause the Vulcanus-version of pollution, since it makes sense that a volcanic planet wouldn't have much problem with regular pollution.
My favourite advent calendar.
Got a private leaderboard with the other sysadmins from work - as well as a few people from our application/development team.
We've recently kicked out our entire Cisco networking core due to it actively refusing to interoperate with other pieces of necessary hardware for us, which was causing us to have to run an almost entire second redundant core network. Switching it out with ALE has been really nice in that regard, SPB scales like a dream even between locations and cities, we even get working L2 routes all the way over to some of our locations almost half a country away.
For us, Dell has been the far better of the two (HPE/Dell) big server-providing beasts in terms of just being able to use the hardware they provide, but they're very close to getting a complete block from future procurement due to how they've been treating us.
Honestly, Fujitsu is probably our best current provider; their hardware is reasonably solid, their rack-kits aren't insane, their BMC doesn't do a bunch of stupid things, they don't do arbitrary vendor locking on expansion cards, etc. Unfortunately their EFI/BIOS is a complete mess, especially in regards to boot ordering and network boot, and they've so far not been able to provide us Linux-based firmware upgrade packages - despite using a RHEL image in their BMC-orchestrated offline firmware upgrade process.
Got a pair of old HPE gen8 1U servers that are chewing through fan packages like nobody's business, replaced at least five burnt-out fans on them in a similar amount of years.
We're running a mix of HPE, Dell, and Fujitsu servers and they all absolutely suck in their individual ways - HP(E) adds a bunch of arbitrary hardware limitations which we have to work around, Dell intentionally degrades our multi-system setups with firmware updates, and Fujitsu's boot firmware goes absolutely pants-on-head retarded if you're doing netboot first.
We've gotten some Supermicro systems now as well, and they've been a real treat in comparison, though their software UX feels like it's about two decades behind.
It's great to see more full-AMD hardware from TUXEDO. I'm currently using their Aura 15 Gen2, and my only complaint is about the fingerprint sensor - which isn't even really a TUXEDO issue as they have written and submitted a patch upstream for libfprint which makes it work. (And since I'm using Gentoo I've just dropped that patch into my local portage tree until upstream merges it)
They're definitely not the cheapest computer vendor, but their quality is good and their support is great. No odd boot behaviors, ACPI errors, random device disappearances, etc, like I've had with other non-Linux-first vendors.
It's great to hear that they're not just giving up. And it's also definitely good to hear that they're not sticking with PHP either, that language is a true bane to modern hosting - and especially Kubernetes.
I'll remain cautiously optimistic that they'll be able to stay relevant, and not go hard in again on cutting away core functionality in the name of enterprise offerings - what caused the NextCloud split in the first place.
Has anything actually happened in ownClouds development?
The last I saw of them was FOSDEM a few years back, where NextCloud were handing out whitepapers and showing off their new Hub, chat, VoIP stack, group sharing system, and more. And ownCloud were sat somewhat opposite with two people and a screen showing a screenshot of a default ownCloud install, along with a big sign hanging from the ceiling saying "Join the winning team."
Lots of people instantly think of security when they look at WiFi-connected IoT devices, but oftentimes they never think of the WiFi signal itself - what with all the added communication noise and send time limitations of having lots of small devices.
Especially with regular consumer equipment, it doesn't actually require that many devices to fully saturate a regular home router or AP.
Took this a few days ago. I'd been reading, and put my pad down to go grab a cup of tea, returned to this.
The image is downscaled quite a bit, was originally posted elsewhere and had to fit in the size limit.
It makes sense to use the words that people are most used to, and bluescreen/BSOD has been the go-to lingua for describing a crash/error screen - even if not blue - since a while now.
Nothing quite beats setting up your first bot mall, seeing the swarm put to work making you everything you could ever need is just magical.
And then plopping down blueprints in map mode, making your factory expand in leaps and bounds while you get to do other fun things.
I think they've mentioned how many devs are working on Squadron 42 exclusive content, but then you have all the content and features that are shared with Star Citizen, as well as the engine devs.
Not sure how you'd split things to get a proper number for only Squadron 42.
I personally burnt out after only 70 hours of in-game time, the way they kept releasing patches and DLC that added more and more levels of grind onto the game finally ended up absolutely killing all my enjoyment of the game.
I think the file upload size limit could become a problem in my case, at least in terms of posting the complete ACLs.
We've recently managed to come down to only ~1.4k VLANs though, and the network firewall pair for our server networks now only handles ~600 SPB services.
