Any job is like this if your time management is bad enough

I just picked up Heart of the Machine. It's a turn-based RPG/4X/city builder (which apparently also includes multiversal time travel) in early access. You play as a rogue AI trying to survive in a dystopian cyberpunk city. If that sounds insanely ambitious, that's because it is, especially for a solo dev. I played the (surprisingly full featured) demo and got immediately hooked. The different systems seem to tie together surprisingly well; the RPG elements provide a bit of drive to engage with the strategy side, and choices influence how you build out your tech tree. Probably not for everyone but the demo is free and worth checking out if it sounds interesting to you.

submitted 2 weeks ago by Strayce@lemmy.sdf.org to c/selfhost@lemmy.ml

I have some downtime at the moment so I'm thinking of reviving my personal blog again. I have enough experience with managed services that I'm reasonably confident to self-host. I'm aware that WordPress / Drupal / Joomla will most likely do what I want, but they're way overkill for my needs and I don't need the extra headaches.

Currently I'm leaning towards ghost, even though activitypub is only in alpha as far as I know. Plume isn't actively maintained any more, which is a shame. WriteFreely is a great project but doesn't suit my aesthetics and doesn't support themes as far as I know. I know connecting a flat-file CMS to activitypub is possible, but seems like way more trouble than I'd like to go to.

Is there anything I've missed that I should be looking at?

In other news, VPN subscriptions have skyrocketed in the U.S South.

A subscription fee for a fucking license plate? We already have that, it's called registration.

Any number of other people could have been caught up in it.

This was not random violence

Pick one.

Third-party game tools (lemmy.sdf.org)

I'm pretty deadset on switching my Legion Go over to Bazzite (for the controller support). One of the games I play a lot of is Elite Dangerous. While I'm quite sure I can get that up and running, there's a few third-party tools I use like EDMC and Voice Attack. EDMC and the like I'm fairly sure just need to get pointed to the logfiles, but I'm not sure how well VA will operate in a Linux environment. Anyone out there dealt with anything like this? It's not a deal breaker if it just doesn't work, but I'd like to know ahead of time.

foremost proponent of corporate ethics

abandoning a pledge to pay direct suppliers a living wage by 2030

So, the "foremost proponent of corporate ethics" is NOT already paying a living wage? Fucking rofl.

Normally I'd go to r/mousereview for this kind of thing, but fuck that website.

Can anybody recommend me a mouse that isn't going to fuck out inside of a couple years? Was previously using an Ironclaw until the USB port went, replaced it with a Basilisk and the scroll on that one's started to jitter up and down now. I have fairly large hands and tend to use knuckle claw grip. Wireless is a must, builtin battery preferred, but requiring a single AA isn't a dealbreaker. I don't mind heavy, prefer a little weight tbh.

Recording from free to air is legal because of the "time shifting" argument. The show is being broadcast regardless, just because it's at an inconvenient time for you doesn't mean you should have to miss it. It's also worth noting that media producers fought tooth and nail against this.

But the guy behind it is a god-tier troll, and Cory Doctorow generally doesn't suck IMO. Enjoy.

I'm not against this, but I feel like the pizza needs to be on the bottom. You're just gonna get cheese all over your hands.

If you're up for something, or down for something, it means the same thing.

If you fill in a form or fill out a form, it means the same thing.

English is fucked.
