the goldberg-steamcrack supports multiplayer. https://gitlab.com/Mr_Goldberg/goldberg_emulator
I only tested it in lan, and it works great. Not sure if it works online, too. You may need hamachi.
And of course: online multiplayer with randos is probably not worth it, as others have pointed out. On one hands it’s probably a bitch to set up. On the other cheating is probably rampant.
soft failures add complexity and ambiguity to your system, as it creates many paths and states you have to consider. It’s generally a good idea to keep the exception handling simple, by failing fast and hard.
here is a nice paper, that highlights some exception handling issues in complex systems

also any beginner-friendly distro should be popular enough for the beginner to find it in the first place.
(big exception: if it came pre-installed on their device)
how far can you get with arch without opening the terminal or the wiki?
Yes, the arch wiki is very good and useful. The issue is, that you need the wiki in the first place. In a user-friendly distro everything would either work OOTB, or it could be done intuitively via GUI.
how far can you get in arch without opening the terminal?
“sudo MacOS” sounds like a legit way to describe “gnome+ubuntu”
KDE on steamdeck, because it came preinstalled
Gnome on work-pc, because it came preinstalled
also gnome on notebook, because the multi-workspace thing works very nice OOTB in gnome
- Users are finally figuring out that some Linux distros are easy to use
so recommending arch linux to newbies was counter productive all along?

is stateless possible without kubernetes? (and without vendor lock in?)
GP said:
RE: Containers, even if you DO go that route, do you really need Kubernetes, which will come at an additional monetary and also maintenance cost? The likely answer at least initially is a big fat “no”.
I agree, that good cloud engineers can save costs in the cloud. But I also think good non-cloud engineers, can save much much more.
When you are rewriting your entire stack to leverage cloud performance, you could probably spend a similar effort for a rewrite that increases regular performance by a similar factor.
RE: Containers, even if you DO go that route…
I was under the impression, that stateless stuff without containers requires a strong vendor login (aws lambda, google functions, azure function). Are you saying, I could do stateless without vendor-lockin and without containers and without kubernetes? This is news to me. Please point me to some resources
what does “get surprised on their own call” mean?
Because megacorps are at least “smart enough” to pretend they aren’t trying to take over the world.
there are enough examples for corps doing evil things. You hear about them less often, because they cover their tracks and the outcry is generally smaller than when governments do similar things.
Whereas governments have a tendency to justify a lot of horrible shit for righteous reasons.
corps justify a lot of horribble shit for financial reasons. Is that better?
who else should be a significant backer for an open source project? google? microsoft?
That’s still not how governments work
It would be nice if it worked like that, but we both know it doesn’t
To become chancellor you have to swear an oath on the “schwarze Null”. that you forgot what you did during the largest tax-scam in history
I just want to point out, that what you are saying sounds good in an ideal world. But the realitiy looks different. (I actually typed out some points, but then I remembered that I don’t want to engage in yet another lengthy internet-debate, that ultimately comes down to personal preferences and philosophy)
it’s all of them
I’m no security expert and the sensible thing to do is using a library instead of taking a class.
Counterpoint: “not knowing your libraries” + “blind trust in the maintainer” will give you stuff like this: https://bitbucket.org/snakeyaml/snakeyaml/issues/561/cve-2022-1471-vulnerability-in
(the thread itself is worth a read. But also very impressive is the list of big players who fell for exactly this mentality)
inkscape is on a level with illustrator (maybe even better)
for drawing: try krita
if you want to pay money (much much less than for adobe): Affinity is on a level with fotoshop
