Announcement of the shutdown: https://lemm.ee/post/65824884

I didn't started this community, just took it over when Civ VII was announced, I saw the original mod stopped using lemmy.

There weren't much conversations here since, mostly just reposts of news and reviews. But since Civ VII was released the amount of articles diminished, so I don't expect a lot of content to be posted here in the near future.

What should happen to this community?

  • I moved to to lemmy.zip, if there is some interest I can recreate this community over there.
  • There are several other Civ communities on the lemmyverse, I can add a note/post to redirect people there. And I can continue posting the occasional news to those communities.

Other civ communities:

I can see on lemmy.ca they frequently appoint mods from other instances here: !communityrequests@lemmy.ca so using it as a new community would be possible, as I won't register there.

Other related communities, both very active:

What do you think?

As lemm.ee will shut down I created a replacement on lemmy.zip: !idm@lemmy.zip

Please subscribe, see you over there!

Fish ladders are common things on dams nowadays. The only speciality I see here it's between sea and a lake.

It's an interesting video, you can see the sizes and form factor of the recievers this way much better. You can still skip the parts you are not interested in.

The quick start guide from the link in the description if you just want to read numbers: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/669856991b982007b8a6a788/t/67af70bd5fc318472e2f9f1a/1739550910959/Evaluation+Kit+-+Quick+Start+Guide.pdf

Disable anything container related to see if this is the reason. If it behaves differently without containers, you will know that you have to search in this direction.

"The file system" is also an abstraction, as files are not distributed that way on a disk. E.g. a file system could work without folders, everything just tagged, like emails in gmail. This directory structure was developed in the 60s/70s for regular users, and modeled after the actual way they stored paper documents in folders that time.

I'm not against replacing the system with something more modern, like you can display your photos on a map if they have geodata, and sort by date, you don't need folder structure for that.

E.g. I havent used the aformentioned desktop shortcuts for ages, I just search for programs whatever OS I use, even though I was growing up with win9x

For the other rant in the post, if you use a COW filesystem "duplication" works differently, e.g. if you modify a file you actually duplicate it than modify the new instance of the file.

OOP is not mad because new folks are stupid. OOP is mad because the way they learned to use the computer years ago is not the most common way anymore, their knowledge will become less and less relevant. They want to teach the usage of a legacy system, but at one point no one will care about therir archaic and irrelevant ways of interfacing a computer system.

I use the google container, and it behaves like this deliberately. If you click on a link on a google page it opens that page outside of the google container. Try to disable/reinstall container related addons

No.

A developer kit is available, but only for R&D teams: https://www.etherdyne.net/evalkit

I worked for a small company, not an IT job, this happened like 10 years ago.

The office administrator lady got an email from an unknown address. The email was in Italian, she couldn't speak Italian, but we had an Italian client, so it was not unexpected that we got an email in Italian. The email had an attachment, a docx file. She downloaded it, opened it then Word asked if she wants to allow running macros embedded in the document, and she obviously clicked yes. We had a small Linux file server, and the virus running on her PC encrypted several tenthousand excel files before it was noticed that something is happening and her machine could be switched off.

No problem - said the boss, we only lost a half day of work, as we have an offsite backup, it runs every night, we can just restore yesterday's data. Unfortunately the backup stopped half years ago, but no one checked the logs...

They are not stop signs, but no entry signs. Or in the US they call this a stop sign?

⛔ vs 🛑

Yepp, Hanlon's razor: they are mostly just lazy and maybe incompetent, not necessarily evil, that's just a side effect. E.g. in my country if you call them that you want to get out of CGNAT they'll just do that for you. My IP haven't changed in years, but I don't pay for fix IP. But it may be different in each country, I have mostly good experiences with local ISPs here.

Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic is a cross between an automation game and a city builder, with relatively complex logistics for a city builder. I am particularly fond of the organic, demand-based logistical challenges of distributing resources to meet the needs of your citizens, and managing realistic mode construction.

The upcoming DLC adds more buildings, vehicles, and a tech overhaul to allow starting the game in the 1930s.
