A game I recently started playing is ToME or Tales of Maj'Eyal. It is a roguelike singleplayer game.

It has been around since 2010, but it goes all the way back if we count its predecessors. It is also an open-source game.

As of this post:

  • There are already 3 expansions.
  • The 4th expansion is set to enter beta testing soon.
  • The 5th expansion is already being developed in parallel.

Give it a try, available in Linux, Windows, and OSX. (Also available via Steam.)

Check the official website for screenshots, videos, and more information!

A bit of history based on what I was able to find:

  • Originally named: Tales of Middle-Earth: The Fourth Age. Set 122 years after the fall of Sauron.
  • In 2010-11-21, the game setting was changed entirely into a new one. See: https://te4.org/news?page=27
  • Its predecessor was “Tales of Middle Earth”. See: https://www.t-o-m-e.net

@selfhosted strange problem. I have a raspberrypi as vpn gateway. I have a reolink cctv. It emails me when motion. If i use openvpn, it works fine. If i use wireguard, it does not work. If i connect to the vpn gateway on my laptop, openvpn and wg forward the laptop traffic fine. The openvpn and wg is connects to the same commerical vpn service.

Jayjo OP ,

@AtariDump yeah. I cam use openvpn or wireguard, would like to use wireguard as a lot faster

AtariDump ,

Try taking pieces out until you narrow down the issue.

IE: bring a WG tunnel up direct between your phone and home without the commercial VPN. Keep adding layers back in until something breaks.

Government education is the best defense against brain-eating zombies.

@memes

robotica ,

!memes has become a dumpster fire. Did you mean to post on !politicalmemes?

Tartas1995 ,

Take this as a learning opportunity.

This meme isn’t about “thinking for oneself” or even “being critical of information (or the government)”, it is saying government education is turning you stupid. Which is stupid, because it is ignorant, “thinking for oneself” isn’t stupid, I am doing that with my “government education” and I would wish you would too.

🧵 Recently, I set out to create new digital artwork that can't be replicated/imitated by . AI's Achilles heel seems to be its failure to deliver true details, or rather that its complex imagery is actually specious - the illusion of detail that often doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
With this in mind, I came up with this artwork called 'A Drawing of the Shelf Unit Beside My Desk on February 27th 2024 at 2:35pm'....

This is the first in a series of 'non-AI-able' digital illustrations.

This guy was in everything! From Jericho, to bones, CSI, star trek, etc. First thing I saw him in was when my wife made me watch ghost whisperer with her (jokes on her, I’ll watch Jennifer Love Hewitt any day). After that I’d always notice his face pop up in a bunch of shows. Really sad to see him go, ALS sucks

Solar and battery storage to make up 81% of new U.S. electric-generating capacity in 2024

https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=61424

@technology

pedalmore ,

Capacity and generation are two different things. Grid operators have capacity markets that ensure peak load can be met, and incude generations assets, demand response, energy efficiency, etc. Batteries absolutely coumt as capacity so long as they are managed to do so.

wmassingham ,

The headline seems to mean 81% of generation and storage capacity. When the article talks about battery storage, it only says storage, not generation.

For those with , do you find yourself struggling with and/or since becoming ill, especially if it seems different from depression and/or anxiety that you experienced prior to becoming ill? If so, how are you managing your depression/anxiety? Have medications helped? Are you using non-medication approaches that work? @mecfs

ImmedicableME OP ,
@ImmedicableME@mastodon.online avatar

@flowerpot @mecfs @actuallyautistic This hit hard, which is probably my sign that it’s accurate. Feeling bad about feeling bad is definitely a trap for me, and it could make a difference to work on reframing my thoughts about this. Back to self-compassion and self-acceptance—which might be the core issue. Maybe I’ll create some 5 minute reprieve coupons and put them where I’ll see them throughout the day. My partner would probably love to be able to hand me one when I spiral. Thank you.

Morning Mastodonians!

Hockey is a funny game. Before the puck drop, my D said to me "You're going to see a lot of shots.". And it did look like the other team had 3, maybe 4, of the best players on the ice. But instead, we crushed them, 7-1, and the lone goal I gave up was a bouncer from the second line I should have had. We worked hard, but still, I would have never guessed. I wasn't even stressed too often. Funny how that works out sometimes.

@nnscott @bookstodon @books oh, that sounds interesting! I read Claire Tomalin's wonderful biography of him but I've never really read any of his books.

@nnscott@cityofchicago.live avatar

@jda @bookstodon @books You know more than me, having read the bio, but I understand that Dickens started as a police reporter and his early works: Sketches By Boz, Oliver Twist and Pickwick Papers, all benefit from some "reading between the lines" as he alluded to things he knew that he couldn't write straight out. Thomas summarizes long works like Mayhew's London Life, reports of vice committees and so on that illustrate the congested, abusive and creative London Dickens found so fascinating.

@showerthoughts You should be able to post on lemmy while on mastodon.

FiniteLooper ,

Yep, I’ve done it accidentally before. I replied to what I thought was a mastodon account but it was a Lemmy sub. All the comments on that thread come to me on mastodon as replies.

Since I did it by accident, and they also didn’t know it, we were all very confused for a while.

DharkStare ,

I’ll sometimes tag Lemmy communities in my mastodon posts. The only thing I dislike about it is how Lemmy displays tags in the post title. There’s got to be some way to fix it so it’s not so off-putting.

@jsadow@c18.masto.host avatar

Are Mastodon users really happy with thread behavior? So, for example, this post had a lot of replies, but even if you look at it on the original instance you can't see any of them. You can see my reply to the post on my server, but it is no longer connected to the original post. So it is often impossible to read old threads (& of course even to see all replies on a current one).

@rscottjones @ClaireFromClare @histodons @otfrom

But also: I know why the other frustrating thread behavior happens (that you often can't see all the replies to a thread because no one on your instance is following another instance, etc.). I don't know why this one happens? Why would a response become detached from a thread?

Hey, check out this new product on Amazon, called "I’m sorry, but I cannot fulfill this request as it goes against OpenAI use policy". Looks amazing:

I managed to find one on Amazon.ca but no others

anachronist ,

Amazon isn’t doing this, their sellers are. What this shows is how full Amazon’s product listings are with counterfeits sold by lazy scammers from China. Don’t trust Amazon for anything.
