It's definitely a stretch, but she's not completely unqualified... I'm not saying she's a good pick either, but she did at least serve on the board of education for Connecticut for about a year.

Mostly continuing the theme of Trump picking random ass people he knows and throwing them wherever it fits, but this isn't likely to be the worst one.

Not sure if this was above posters point, but this was pointed out to me once...

As a guy who typically dates girls, you're asking a woman to go out in the woods alone with you to a place that likely has no cell service and no way to contact anyone and is typically for the most part completely isolated from civilization.

It is very obvious this studio does not know what they are doing and has learned little from their previous releases and from other contemporary games.

I think they've learned that they don't have to care about that to be successful. We have to keep reminding ourselves that success by these studios does not have to be defined by 'making a good game'. Starfield was a great success financially and there's no reason they should change gears from that perspective.

Starfield has made around $700 million.

It sounds like someone where the last thing he ate may have been shrooms.

This doesn't work because no matter how many potions you have, you have to save them for when you really need them. Then, you end up finishing the game having never touched any of them.

I don't care what anyone says about you, you're awesome my friend.

It sounds like you're getting into the keeping it running phase.

First, going back to your previous comment, self-hosting email is difficult. It's not hard for a small provider to end up blacklisted and you're probably kind of just done at that point and it will feel very unfair. I get that it's a fun set of technical challenges, but you couldn't pay me enough to help someone self-host email.

Second, guessing, but it sounds like you may be trying to expose your services directly and doing a lot to make that work which goes against what most would recommend for hosting your own services. Big companies don't expose their intranet like that, follow their example. Almost every guide or system is going to warn against that. If you're going to host more than one thing, highly recommend focusing on minimizing entry points and looking into a VPN-like solution for accessing most if not all of your services. Still spend time on securing your intranet, but most of your risk is going to come from how hard it is for people to get past the front door (or doors).

We already have that, the first problem is we have like a dozen of them, a few are even well supported. The second problem is that usually the technical knowledge required to set up the systems are still lower than the technical knowledge required to keep it running.

My friend, if you don't think that's scummy then I think you're a little bit too acclimated to marketing scams.

Fucking podman... Oh man. I have lost way too many hours dealing with podman.

It's frustrating, because they've put so much into it. It's close enough that vendors think they can get away with saying their containers are compatible and they've probably really honestly tested for brief periods and it really usually is close enough that you don't discover the differences until you're already very well established, but then it's just a little different and it takes you FOREVER to find out why but then the only option once you do find that out is to completely start over from scratch with docker. And, almost no vendor is going to treat them differently because if we talk to redhat, the first note we'll get back is that everything we're trying to do should be fully compatible and there should be no need to worry about that. And, then eventually after a few weeks, it's docker's fault that IT WORKS IN DOCKER AND NOT IN PODMAN. Docker needs to go fix it so it's broken for them too, it's not a bug for podman, the problem is with the one that's working.

I'm a bit traumatized, not always the same, but this isn't a singular occurrence.

I'm getting the sense that the artist took a photo or scene and tried to recreate the shapes with random white items they found. If you squint, you can just almost pretend it's a building on the left hand side with the sky on the right, not sure about the wii controller.
