For anyone wondering what Microsoft actually said about Windows 10 being the last version: https://www.windowscentral.com/windows-10-may-be-last-version-windows-microsoft-rethinks-operating-system

And no, they didn't it'd be the last Windows. They said it'd be the last traditional release before moving on to "Windows as a Service".

Mildly interesting indeed!

It'd be even more interesting if an interface like this would estimate the carbon emissions per scheduled trip for these ships.

Surely one could estimate the impact based off of the ship class and distance.

Come to think of it, that'd also be interesting for a flight radar kind of website.

I hadn't heard of a "self hostable Steam-like platform" before; after reading the above post I became very excited... until I read it doesn't support a Linux client and isn't FOSS.

Thank you for sharing this alternative! Configuring it for my homelab environment right now.

In Gilead they called it "Fish & Loaves":

Replayability because the core gameplay loop is fun, I whole heartedly support. I still (re)play (Open)TTD for this very reason and that's been here for decades with no end in sight.

Endgame however, not always required.

@StarkZarn@infosec.pub have you heard of NixOS? If you'd become a contributor with these bitesized posts that you're doing you'd be increasing the repeatability of your work immensely.

No pressure. Just doing some evangelization 🙂

'The endgame' really only started to become a thing with te launch of live service games. Or more specifically at that time, MMO games.

There was a time when it was perfectly okay to have a game you thoroughly enjoyed for say 10-, 20-, or 30 hours, and then 'ended the game'.

With game backlogs also having become a thing, I'm fine with playing a game like this, enjoying it while I am working through it, and then moving on to the next thing.

"Normal people cosplay."

I was sorely lacking this definition in my vocabulary. Thank you for the correction.

And I just noticed the speedometer actually works when using the phone screen, but it doesn't show (in my case) on the Android Auto screen.

Will keep contributing as much as possible!

Seems like a relevant post to the community here. I like how the author goes into a list of alternatives, with reasoning.

I am not the author.

I found this blog to have both a short summary of the reasons as well as a pretty complete overview of the options for protecting against this specific threat model. I can just send this to people and they'll understand the why and the how.
