Russia To Expand Its Surveillance Network, Plans To Tap Into Private Surveillance Networks, Roll Out Facial Recognition
@mk @theorytoe you missed the point. containers just make things harder. they are nice rube goldberg machines for shit languages like python which are hell to deploy.
when just installing everything from packages, things will receive timely security patches of the distribution.
when using VMs, one has to upgrade a few VMs for this. not great, not terrible.
with containers one has to hope that some image down the stack will be upgraded to include the fix, while the whole setup provides worse isolation than VMs (which already is prone to leakage). with containers the isolation is essentially the same as for plain linux users and chroot. no improvement. cgroups limiting resource usage can be set by the init system, i think systemd does this already.
containers sure have their use case, but mostly they are a crappy solution waiting for problems.
in the end the image is a meme which makes the point that ftp-ing a directory full of php scripts worked better than all the modern shit.

Tried to add random enemy placement to the dungeon, but they all appear in the same room. I realize that the common way to do RNG in C and C++, srand(time(NULL)) uses time (in seconds) as a seed, and since the loop obviously runs multiple times per second, I'm getting the same results.
I think my solution would be to use my own RNG algorithm with a seed that increments every time it is called.
@intentionwebdesign Nobody needs to be "getting into people's inboxes" 🤮
Yes this shit Google is doing is a problem - for recipients who can't get actual personal mail or automated reports they actually *want to get*. Blocking small businesses from spamming is not a problem.
I wasn't even aware that there was a new Deus Ex game in development.

I knew that Elon Musking buying out Twitter was just a psyop since day 1, but I never expected for it to be this bad. At most, I thought it was just to prevent the alternative media from embracing alternative platforms like the Fediverse.
Well it looks like I won't be able to lurk Twitter anymore.

I got a random dungeon generation algorithm implemented. It is the same one from this post (https://gameliberty.club/@xianc78/111750085112155644), but written in C++ instead of Java. It's pretty basic at the moment. I plan on having each room randomly pick a design from a template.
