Anything with bonkers ideas or decision is fun. I mean kicking a squirrel against a tree in baldurs gate 3 is one of my favorite memories of our play trough.

So a story mode? Like the first AC games? There is a story and you play the game while the story unfolds and the writers decided what happens and you get immersed in the story without five hundred fake decision that make no difference what so ever?

Live service can be awesome if done right and with good enough intentions, but for the most part it's just about maximizing profits and minimizing effort for the developer / publisher. Add decision made not by lead designers / game directors but excel warriors and we end up with Call of Battlefield: Black Duty 17 Battlepass Edition with optional Subscriber Package.

But this whole situation creates the ideal situation to get gems like baldurs gate 3, battlebit, factorio, even games like cyberpunk stand out of the whole profit maximizing shit show.

Nothing really, we played it for 120h and then moved on to other games. I assume many other players did as well. It's not a live service game with seasonal content and constant changes or updates. There are no leagues or leader boards so there is no reason to return to the game other than the occasional fun round with others.

But to be honest it's fine as it is, solid game play and nice maps. Not every game needs to run indefinitely and keep huge numbers of concurrent players. The devs did their thing, showed the world what games should be like and now they earned their retirement. If they come back with updates, good. If they decide to make another banger game, even better. But they don't have to, if every game is an endless time sink with seasons, battle passes, skins, mtx and fomo built in there would be no exceptional games like we had in the past years.

Also the game is highly dependent on the people you play with, the longer fps games run the better people usually get. Beginners or players with little time get pushed out because there are seasoned gamers that do nothing else than running the best meta weapon and learned all the maps. So for new players the fun declines and veterans keep complaining about the lack of new players.

That seems like the solution I was looking for. Google wasn't really helpful for me here :).

I can run the scripts by hand but I have to do everything else (logging, rollovers, notifications, etc.) by hand too, that is what I wanted to avoid.

Permissions are not a big deal inside the containers and even If there is an issue, this is for my home nas. I don't really care If I have to spend a couple of hours to fix broken permissions after restoring something from a backup.

 

I'm trying to come up with a elegant way of backing up my docker volumes. I don't really care about my host and the data on the host, because everything I do happens inside my docker containers and the mapped volumes. Some containers use mapped paths, but some others use straight up docker volumes.

I've started writing a script that inspects the containers, reads all the mount paths and then spins up another container to tar all the mounted paths.

docker run --rm --volumes-from $container_name-v /data/backup:/backup busybox tar cvf /backup/$container_name.tar $paths

So far so good, this works and I can write all backups to my storage and later sync them to an offsite backup space.

But error handling, (nice)logging and notifications using ntfy in case of success / errors / problems is going to suck in a bash script. Local backup file rollover and log file rollover also just suck if I have to do all this by hand. I'm able to use other languages to write this backup util but I don't want to start this project if there already is a ready made solution.

So the question, is there a utility that can simply schedule arbitrary bits of script, write nicer logs for these script bits, do file rollovers and run another script on success / error?
All the backup programs that I can find are more focused on backing up directories, permissions and so on.

Das meinte ich damit eigentlich nicht. Die fehlende Empathie gab es schon immer, mir fällt das aktuell nur mehr auf.

Zensur ist für mich absolut nicht notwendig, eher die richtige Aufklärung wie man mit dem Internet und den Plattformen umgehen und auf was man aufpassen sollte.

Naja wenn ich mir überlege wie viele durch verschiedene Plattformen mit einem schlechten / geschädigten Selbstbild aufgewachsen sind. Wie man aussieht, sich ernährt, was man gut oder schlecht finden soll und vor allem wie man mit Kritik und anderen Meinungen umgehen sollte. Es muss ja nicht immer das Hardcore Problem in der eigenen Psyche sein, es reichen da auch schon kleine Dinge aus. Dasjsgt zwar eher an der fehlenden Medienkompetenz als an der elterlichen Kontrolle, aber der Effekt ist trotzdem vorhanden und dem sollte man nicht unterschätzen. Alleine die fehlende Fähigkeit der Empathie fällt mir in letzter Zeit immer mehr auf.

Quck note on that, many smart devices have trouble with wifi if the 2,4 ghz and 5 ghz have the same name. Rename the one of the two and it mostly works.

Why is windows bad for development? Outside of specific languages or IDEs which suck for Windows, why would windows be bad for development?

Start your pc, start the IDE and type away. Docker runs in windows so running databases, redis, rabbitmq, elastic or whatever is not an issue.

Because left and right can be interpreted as direction from your point of view. Port and starboard are always understood as left and right of the vessel you are currently in.

Or in the case of leaked source Code it's also Forced Open Source Software.
