I'm not disagreeing with you, but am genuinely curious how "fairness" was counted. I feel we have a thing right now where one side will present a well reasoned, data driven, argument. And the other side will hastily throw together something based on vibes that mostly doesn't address the issue at all. But out of a sense of fairness our current media feels like it has to present both as though they're two equally effective tradeoffs when actually one is empty noise.
So I'd be very curious if this system has a way of preserving true fairness without devolving into false equality in some way. Obviously nothing is perfect, but I'm curious.
Factorio in particular actually ships a native Linux version. Someone at Wube actually tries it AFAICT. So that should be something you could try day one, probably. Besides some weird situation, I'd expect every other game to be harder to run than Factorio.
It's also worth mentioning that localsend has specific Linux support, so the app should run fine. I use it on my Linux laptop all the time!
I think it's great! If we're Mr and Mrs MyLastName we know they know me and assumed she was the same. If it's Mr and Mrs HerLastName it means they know us through her, and assumed she must have gotten the name from me! It's like putting the name of the company in the email you're giving the email to, it tracks the source. At least that's the game we play, because it mostly doesn't matter to us.
On most modern distros (like Mint) you can do basically as much with Linux GUIs as you can do in Windows or Mac. So normal users don't need the terminal. But if you want to do more, if you want the secret sauce, the terminal is there for you.
But fear not! Basically all of us have some level of autism or ADHD, and the best of us tend to be the most extreme. If anything the terminal was written by autistic nerds for themselves! If you'll be okay being a bit of a n00b for a bit, I think you'll find there's a lot of depth here to obsess over / hyper fixate / hyper focus on.
There's a reason people have been "fighting" for, like, 40 years over which terminal text editor is the superior one... The flames of war can run pretty deep, and there's a lot of opinions.
I think the reason people are jumping to BDSM community terms is because BDSM people fucking love terms. They've got taxonomy for days, and they live to whip it out, so to speak.
That's what it says, so it must be true
I have never played a game with random strangers ever. But! My brother and sister both live hours away from me (and each other), and we keep in touch by playing online co-op games every week.
I have a group of friends that I have mostly kept in touch with by playing online games too.
So I agree with what I think you meant, but I'm very glad online multiplayer exists in some form.
Along with the others I'd also mention Outer Wilds and Viewfinder
There's a sense in which cars by their nature produce sprawl. Cars are larger than people, so if I want a building to contain N number of people, I need an empty space nearby that contains 3N of just emptiness waiting for a car, so our buildings can't be too close together. There needs to be that buffer space between them for their cars.
Then people have to get to the parking lots, so we need roads. But if I want N people to be able to get here, I need more than that space between our parking lots for enough cars to be able to reach me. Not to mention left turning lanes and big intersections, and of course long stretches to get past the long parking lots.
So if we don't have space for that in a city, we either have to knock down a bunch of buildings to make room for these things, it we have to expand outwards into the larger empty space outside the city. Which naturally leads to sprawl.
It's amazing to actually do a satellite view of an area, take a screenshot, and then colour in the parts that are actually a building or shop or home, and then colour all the other parts that are road, driveway, parking lot, intersection. It's this foam which sprawls.
