I think the distance video games still have to go before they're starting to realise their potential as an art form can be illustrated by the difference between them and board games.

factorio, negative-ish

@catoutofbed@octodon.social yeah, that's what I'm thinking

but as far as I know, you have to start a new game to change the biter settings

factorio, negative-ish

idk, I like having biters because it gives you a consequence for polution.

But when my defenses are dealing with a different biter attack every 10 seconds, and one in 10 biter attacks damage something, that's a lot of time travelling to the other side of the base to see what broke

factorio, negative-ish

hmm.... I'm starting to resent this game of factorio that I've got going - I'm spending more time dealing with biters and power going out and basic ore throughput issues than I am actually building stuff.

I think I'm going to start again, but maybe with a different world preset?

twitterActivityPubActor in one post

the first time someone mentions you @ twitter.activitypub.actor it scrapes your avatar, bio, header, and display name

it presents an AP actor so it looks like a profile in mastodon

it caches that info for a week (actually forever but if the cache is older than a week it will re-scrape it)

there is NO post mirroring involved

mentions are silently ignored, so are follow requests

my take on it is: it's harmless. it's not good but it's not worth your time

@pupy@chitter.xyz the answer to this is that the DLC also updated the tools behind the scenes, so if they used certain helpful effort-saving things to make their mod, it's no longer compatible with the base game only.

The trend towards doing that has increased over time, given that it's now been 6.5 years since the DLC was released. (but it's still super frustrating)

@pupy@chitter.xyz it's easy when there's only one mod mananger... but then one mod only works with the other one. And then this mod over here requires you to use a different launcher. And then...
