That sounds like the experience of writing Containerfiles; since steps are cached you want to pull the thing you are iterating on as far down as possible.

Starting in a forest/grassland area will give you more time until the biters come.

Or just play in peaceful mode, there is still so much good gameplay left even without the challenge of biters.

If you want to pass the time until October, i would recommend the Ultracube: Age of Cube mod [0]. It does not stretch out the base game with additional tedious steps, instead it gives a big twist to what you knew about factories. Here is a good let's play introduction to the early game: [1]

I am debating whether i should take time off work. Though the release date may still slip by a week or more, i guess.

New comment by franknord23 in "Systemd: Enable indefinite service restarts"

franknord23 — Thu, 18 Jan 2024 21:04:19 +0000

I believe this allows you to have cascading restart strategies, similar to what can be done in Erlang/OTP: Only after the StartLimit= has been reached, systemd considers the service as failed. Then services that have Required= set on the failed service will be restarted/marked failed as well.

I think you can even have systemd reboot or move the system into a recovery mode (target) if an essential unit does not come up. That way, you can get pretty robust systems that are highly tolerant to failures.

(Now after reading `man systemd.unit`, i am not fully sure how exactly restarts are cascaded to requiring units.)

franknord23 — Mon, 05 Sep 2022 09:16:05 +0000

With mass adoption of EVs and the further move to solar power, charging during the day is the sensible. Which mostly means chargers at workplaces.

(Not saying we don't need charging close to appartments at all, but workplace charging can alleviate some of it.)

The situation is somewhat similar to Certificate Authorities. CAs are trusted at differing degrees and also have to watch out not to get their root certificate stolen.

Can torrents actually share chunks? Because otherwise when downloading a large 'mutable' torrent which is often changed slightly one couldn't use all possible peers.
