When I got to a quest site I made a hitching spot because I understand pen animals like horses (what I brought) may wander off without one. After I undrafted my colonists they hitched them. I dealt with the EMI interference, rejoice! Let's go home.

But they aren't. Turns out the problem was the hitch spot. They wouldn't unhitch the horses to leave. They loaded them but until I manually deconstructed the hitch the horses were wandering and the colonists wandering the edge of the map waiting for the horses. It took a while to figure out what was wrong. Is this a bug/known quirk?

Also, caravans in general are sort of annoying to deal with. It seems tricky to figure out why they aren't leaving. On the way to the site I had a similar problem. Turns out I said to bring 8 meals but someone grabbed one and I only had 7. I think I brought up a screen showing what was loaded and missing but I don't remember how I did. Any clues?

My understanding is adults won't get a smoke leaf addiction if they only take it every other day. That's what the policy is set to and two people developed an addiction. What could I be missing? Or does the policy need to be a little more strict to account for them taking some at the end of a day and then again in the morning the day after? (~25 hours instead of 48 hours.)

I've been getting back into Rimworld after a few years. I've played a bit but never gotten very far. I'm a huge fan of colony management games in general (Dwarf Fortress, Oxygen Not Included, etc.) but Rimworld has always been tough to me. I think part of it is that the tech tree just doesn't make sense in my head.

I think I'm more used to medieval style games with clear "Minecraft like" material progression (can't think of a better term lol). Plus a lot of games I play a gun is just already the highest tech you'll get, so it's this weird thing where I view my weapons as really strong then they're really early game things. Further, I probably think of other weapons I see that are powerful as being super late game weapons.

Can someone give me a breakdown of what techs to research over the first year or two of gameplay? I also might not be researching enough in general. I am 3 seasons in and only have one tech unlocked, batteries. Is that a good pace? I know later it will be faster.

Right now I mostly die to things in the second year it seems like. My new game I am playing with Phoebe Chillax on Adventure Story. Seems like Cassandra Classic on Strive to Survive is the "default". But going over the things they actually change it seems like this will mostly give me smaller raids and events slightly less often, as opposed to doing things like giving me more food from crops. I'm mostly dying to external threats at the moment so I'm trying to make that a teeny bit easier as I learn.

I noticed a repository's .gitattributes entry for *.csv used text eol=crlf so I investigated and found this.

Ages upon ages ago I spilled something on this keyboard. I don't really remember the details. The control key is sticky. It takes about twice as much force to push down and it really annoys me. I suppose I thought over the years it would get better, but it seems like it has gotten worse. How do I clean it or fix it? This keyboard does not have removable switches. The switch is MX Brown.

It only shows Drive (for each account), Bug Reports (?) and System Traces (?). Of course, I just restarted my phone to see if it fixed it. It did, but as soon as I try a second time it's gone again.

I mention Discord but I'm pretty sure this file picker screen is not directly associated with Discord.

Update: This is affecting a friend of mine as well in the same way from the same time. Haven't determined if it's just Discord yet.

Update 2: Alright, if I scroll to the photos instead of selecting "files" then go to "all albums" I see Google Photos. Not sure what changed to make it like this but at least now I know.

Sorry, this is a little embarrassing lol. But my notification bar with the clock and battery don't show in Jerboa any more. Is this some full screen option in the app I've accidentally turned on or something in Android itself I've enabled for this app?

Thanks!

I just never thought I'd hear GPL software get such a huge shout-out. It was literally the second thing said during the acceptance speech for Flow (best animated picture).

Also, Anora is a story involving sex workers and during two different acceptance speeches (best original screenplay and best picture) they thanks sex workers for sharing their stories with them.

Wasn't really sure where else to post this. I just thought it was pretty cool. There's always a bit of pandering in speeches (and it's not necessarily always bad), but libre software and sex workers were two things I wouldn't have guessed would get mentions. It was exciting!

There are times I'd like to get a measurement of a room's layout. I know there are some apps that do this, but a lot are just full of premium pay wall stuff.

I'm just trying to get the dimensions of my office (it is an odd shape) so I can okay around with potential furniture layouts.

:: Remove make dependencies after install? [y/N] y

If I didn't remove make dependencies, would yay/pacman be smart enough to know the thing I am installing does not actually depend on them? It's a very nice feature of package managers that they track dependencies and can do things like remove "dangling" dependencies and I don't want to mess that up with some random dependencies needed only for a build. But I also don't want to install something every time I need to build lol.

So does yay and/or pacman know that the things I am installing don't actually depend on the make dependencies?

Solution: Keeping the make dependencies after install will not fool pacman and/or yay into thinking the make dependencies are "real" dependencies of whatever you're building from AUR. They both correctly recognize them as orphans (unless of course something else actually depends on them). So feel free to not remove them during install without worrying about dependency graphs getting tarnished; you'll be able to easily remove them later if you'd like.

I am trying to make a 2024 version of my paladin. I can pick Oath of Devotion because it is free. I can pick the Xanathar's options and Oathebreaker because they are from 2014 content I own, but I cannot pick the 2014 version of things I own if they're in 2024 content I don't own. I can't use the Oath of the Ancients.

I'm interested in setting up something to act as a file server. Think of it as "the cloud" but local. I've never built (or bought) something specifically for this, so it's a big foreign to me.

I think really all I would want is something that can store a lot of TB of data easily. It doesn't need to be fast. It doesn't need to be able to stream media anywhere. It really only needs to be able to act as an SFTP server, maybe run sync thing (new to that), and maybe act as a NAS. My gut feeling is something like 10+ TB might be a good amount to start. Something that won't fill up quick and that I can put big things in (like a full system image of another computer) without concern.

What would be a good way to go about this? Building a computer like normal but getting very cheap stuff? Getting something pre built or used (like surplus office stuff)? I'm just not really sure where to begin.
