Has anyone else done CS50? Kind of insane and awesome that a resource like that is just open to the world.

Anyway, I spent way too many hours on this, but Scratch is pleasantly addictive, and there are worse ways to waste time.

I finished a very enjoyable playthrough from start to VI thanks to Pixel Remasters, and I bought VII-IX on Switch to keep it going. I'm on the first arc in Kalm after leaving Midgard and I am finding it a struggle to get through. This game moves so slow, the story is not at all interesting so far, combat is entirely monotonous, the characters are flat, the controls are clunky, and the cut scenes are excruciatingly long and pointless.

I do not want to play through it for completeness sake, but I also don't want to give up too early.

I feel like I should be enjoying it by now, right? Is there some point in the story where it really takes off? If so, how close am I?

Great recent post from Grognardia.

My Substack where I mostly review music, but who knows maybe I'll share a cat or dog photo at some point, or spout some other nonsense.

From a show my band played last November.

If you have or know a band looking for a show in our area (Lexington, Louisville, Cincinnati) hit us up.

German weirdo metal... maybe occult metal? I don't care, it rules. Raw and very much doing their own thing, which is rare and exciting. They released a new album in December, but this is the earliest one on Bandcamp.

I'm admittedly yelling at cloud a bit here, but I like package managers just fine. I don't want to have to have a plurality of software management tools. However, I also don't want to be caught off guard in the future if applications I rely on begin releasing exclusively with flatpak.

I don't develop distributed applications, but Im not understanding how it simplifies dependency management. Isn't it just shifting the work into the app bundle? Stuff still has to be updated or replaced all the time, right?

Don't maintainers have to release new bundles if they contain dependencies with vulnerabilities?

Is it because developers are often using dependencies that are ahead of release versions?

Also, how is it so much better than images for your applications on Docker Hub?

Never say never, I guess, but nothing about flatpak really appeals to my instincts. I really just want to know if it's something I should adopt, or if I can continue to blissfully ignore.

That's fuckin it. I'm done with everything

... And that grinds my gears, a bit

It must be considered solid terrain and not a hazard. I assume that this is treated like a physical feat, rather than a supernatural one, so the monk would get stuck in the web trying the dash through. The animation, however, uses the same as levitation, and you can levitate over the webs when levitating from a potion.

I interpret use of this animation of the monk "flying" as acrobatic flips and maneuvering to avoid traps or stuff on the floor. So is the web stretching from floor to ceiling? If so, why can you levitate through it? Seems inconsistent.
