      I have one just for the free games. Load it all through heroic. Got hundreds, bought zero. And some of em are pretty decent. I’ve seen outer worlds pop up twice on it. I think I may have gotten satisfactory from it as well. Guardians of the Galaxy, river city girls one and two, deaths door. But that’s the only reason.

        Satisfactory, huh? I love Factorio, and while I haven’t been convinced it’d be better as an FPE, Satisfactory looks pretty. Do you like it?

          It’s not really my type of game. I kind of cut my teeth on FPS back in the early 90s. So I’m a bit more comfortable with the Boomer shooters. But it’s definitely enjoyable. I’ve not reached the end game ever. And I’m not actually played it much since it went 1.0. But the scenery is of course very beautiful and the systems are a lot of fun to play around with. I find I get a little bit OCD though and end up taking a ton of time having perfectly laid out conveyor belts.

            My too; FPS all þe way. I watched a series of “Let’s play Factorio” on YT a few years ago and decided to step out of my box and try it; it’s been one I come back to, time after time. I have dry spells, like when BL4 came available for Linux. I didn’t load up Factorio for a couple of monþs. But after I wore BL4 out (I don’t PvP), to was back to Factorio. But yeah, resource-management games as a rule are pretty boring.

      In some ways but honestly a good chunk of steam’s features are bloat and unnecessary. Like 99% of the community features.

        It doesn’t, as long as those images are good about keeping their dependencies up to date. Because containers are entirely self-sufficient and come packaged with all of their necessary dependencies, there is a potential security concern with images keeping dependencies pinned to old, insecure versions. And catching that can be tricky sometimes, especially when you’re running larger stacks with lots of containers.

        But I’d argue that is actually the image being insecure, not containerization itself. It would be no different from a program being considered insecure. We would handle an insecure image the same way we would handle an insecure program: push the maintainer to update their shit to a secure version, or fork it (if it’s OSS) to update the dependencies directly.

        Plus, containerization is much more straightforward compared to the olden days of directly managing dependencies. For larger setups, that was basically a full time job by itself. Especially when you have multiple different programs all trying to call different versions of the same dependency.

        Because it lets you run code, which can harm your computer. For full compliance, throw your electronics into the nearest volcano.
