Fs2 hasn’t aged at all, fire up Knossos and load yourself some war in heaven, if you dare.

Faf!

Project Lazarus, the best of eq without most of the pain.

I got a monkey off my back I didn’t even know I was carrying for 20 years.

Did that a few times, the difficulty is keeping it up to date with new releases or distro hopping, I just git clone my environment with a bin path and distro specific environment variables.

Fyi /usr/local/bin is for system wide applications, freebsd and it’s friends use it for non-core software installs.

Unix has had a long running convention of separation between “operating system” and other files, so you can blow away something like /opt or /home without making your system unbeatable.

If you stick stuff under /usr/bin then you have to track the files especially if there are any conflicts.

Best to just add another path, I use ~/bin because it’s easy to get to and it’s a symlink from the git repo that holds my portable environment, just clone it and run a script and I’m home.

Dune had no good guys, none at all.

Everyone was out for themselves or their narrow view of what was just and best for humanity from their simplistic and self-centered perspective.

Leto 2 was the exception because he was out for his narrow view of what was best for humanity from his broad, self-centered perspective that still didn’t really lead anywhere.

The actual point of the books is that no ideal survives the test of real time, and over time civilization tends to ossify, so we are doomed to catastrophe by our very nature.

There are a few, seriously, a few just excellent episodes, 1 of which is in s3 iirc.

The early episode about the battle of witchhead, harper 2.0, and the s3 episode with the first officer rhade, all solid.

But otherwise, wow, totally unwatchable. Maybe I’ve missed an episode or 2, I think there was one with the ships breaking out of a prison, but so damn many unwatchable episodes I feel bad for most of the cast.

My udm is basically running either debian or Ubuntu with all the major apt packages so everything should work, though I don’t think most of the logs go through syslog, many go into their mongodb database I think.

So in the end, it doesn’t even matter?

Shame about khotkeys, but I get it.

Thank you for the reasonable communication, it helps.

That was so much more fun than it had any right to be.

Interest rates going up means investors are demanding more profit so all the tricks web companies have held off on till now are coming out.
