Currently slogging my way though the late game (or at least I was until more pressing things came up), there's some slight automation towards the mid game that helps a bit, but the grind doesn't really go away. Mostly due to the fact that you end up spending Faith/ corpses/ gold way faster than you can get them. I find myself in a waiting pattern fairly often- there's still things to do, but progress on major quests feels super slow (and almost unrewarding). The DLC is mostly regarded as filler, but if you're a completionist (or like what they offer), it's not awful at the current sale price.

Note: there are achievements that are gated behind having the DLCs if that's your thing.

It's not strictly a bad game, but I'd almost rather play Stardew for the farming/ story or Factorio for the automation.

That's kind of awesome! I have a bunch of home lab stuff, but have been putting off buying a domain (I was a broke college student when I started my lab and half the point was avoiding recurring costs- plus I already run the DNS, as far as the WAN is concerned, I have whatever domain I want). My loose plan was to stand up a certificate authority and push the root public key out with active directory, but being able to certify things against Let's Encrypt might make things significantly easier.

Seconding the confused Voron noises. I mean, I'd be really curious to see the 3d printer firmware market share beak down, but I feel like anybody building a custom printer is going to have a far easier time with Klipper, just because of how much easier it is to get dialed in.

Oscar the Grouch in the first panel too

It's so weird seeing one of my mods on the list. Like one of my lost little orphans grew up and went off to college... So long Setup Camp 🥲

Knights of the old Republic! I have a soft spot for the Infinity Engine games, but I really like that KotOR abstracts away most of the inventory management and lets you just focus on the story and characters. Plus props for being able to show the dice rolls so you can pick the extent to which you'd like to roll/role play.

I'm not in a place where I can compare it to the artists you've mentioned, but maybe check out Ben Prunty? He's got a bunch of stuff in his catalogue (including an album that's meant to be on the darker side), but I think he's most known for the FTL soundtrack, which I'd probably describe as space, but pensive and curious.

Right? I tried to switch my primary computer (framework laptop) to Linux earlier this year and ended up going back to windows after I had absolute nightmares with my type-c KVM. Coupled with performance issues while gaming (and the absolute hassle of having to force games to use my graphics card). Add in whatever random issues I was getting trying to remote into other windows machines on my domain (for CAD work). My day job is in software engineering/ programming, so I'm not exactly a stranger to digging through documentation and fixing computer issues, but spending time fixing my computer instead of using it got old pretty quick.

Perfectly happy with Linux in my HomeLab and on my steamdeck though!

papyrus!

Not to burst your bubble (it's super neat to see a major company starting down the road to repairability; fingers crossed they commit to the bit), but this was posted to this community relatively recently: https://sh.itjust.works/post/37825020

I've never been a super huge fan of orange, but there's something about the white and orange color scheme that just looks sick as hell. I have a massive soft spot for the 07 - 09 Mars Mission line.

Jenkins!
