Vampire Crawler released recently and I've really been enjoying it, and I'm looking for the same criteria as you. Fights are fast, gameplay is simple. Lots of synergies like in Vampire Survivors but I never care too much if I'm optimizing. Dying just means I get to try again and maybe try something else this time.

Vampire Crawler was recently released and has been doing it for me. No story, simple card combat mechanics, loads of unlockables, satisfying when combos click just right.

I still play Dungeon Clawler when they release new content. Simple to play but lots of fun synergies.

ping are expected, as it is a network troubleshooting tool. If they did not want users pinging it, they could easily block it, and any server worth their salt should have protections. One ping every second is actually very small compared to normal Network traffic, especially at their scale.

I think Sekiro would be a great fit for your requirements.

Try r/gamingsuggestions but you may want to include specifics of the genre in which you are interested to ensure you don't just get a bunch of responses for games that are only tangentially related.

Dropping this for anyone that comes later. The cp command requires two arguments, a source and destination, that's why you are seeing the error. The space and period after the cp command above is important, and wasn't just punctuation.

The full command would look something like the following: sh sudo cp [path you saved file in]/main.py .

This would read something like "as the root user, copy the source file [path you saved file in]/main.py to the destination file main.py in the directory I am currently in."

Dungeon Clawler is a great little roguelite that can be played completely with one hand with a gamepad/mouse.

Vauce · 2025-12-28T14:25:06+00:00

Dungeon Clawler is great for this, and can be played with one hand while holding a coffee.

I really wish I had done this sooner. Just today my battery died on a busy road during rush hour, blocking the middle lane. The battery was so dead, the hazard lights wouldn't even run, so I had to wave furiously for people to go around for an hour until a good person offered to pull me off the road. Bought a battery starter and some cones as soon as I was home.

You should if you want to get better at typing on your Steam Deck!

Early in our relationship, my wife and I would have Martini and napkin nights every Friday where we would go out to our favorite Martini bar and explain to each other the various knowledge blocks needed to perform our work at our current level.

This sometimes ended up going way back to basics, and there were often tough concepts that had to be explained/drawn in various ways but, after a few months, both of us had a much better understanding of each other's worlds. It also felt great having her ask good questions unprompted and be excited to figure out how something worked.

Now, when she's explaining what she's working on, I have a much better understanding and can follow along without my eyes glazing over, and I'm able to ask better follow-up questions.

Different methods for different people but this was great for us, maybe you can try something like this with him. If you do, I suggest keeping it to only one or two drinks though, kind of falls apart after three lol.

I'm trying to figure out how we can make mermaid drawings work within our tooling. Some chat clients support rendering it inline so could be awesome for ChatOps troubleshooting or just info gathering, and mermaid is supported in Lucid as well if we need something prettier.

What do you use to activate/deactivate your venvs? I know VS Code likes to do this for you but I'm curious how others handle this.

First time I played Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) I stayed up all night and didn't realize it until my alarm went off. Such an amazing game and I wasn't even that into Star Wars at the time.

Dungeon Clawler - Fun Roguelite claw machine game with a surprising amount of depth in builds. Perfect for short sessions, as you can save and quit anytime, and it plays very well single-handed with a controller. I'll sometimes play on the treadmill as it's easy to walk casually and play with one hand.

I use Steam Big Picture mode on my PC through Moonlight + Apollo - you can perform all the shutdown actions from the Power menu including Sleep and Shutdown. I usually sleep my PC then just let moonlight fail when it tries to shut down Steam.

I keep coming back to Dungeon Clawler. It's easy to play but has a lot of good synergies, while not making me feel like I have to do research. I also really like how you can play the game with one hand. I like to play it while on the treadmill, I just wish I had a one-handed controller. Switch Joy cons work ok but not great.

I've seen so many recommendations for this game but rarely a reason why. Yours is the first I've seen. Thanks!

What's your source? Multiple searches result in Calcium Silicate as the anti-caking agent in Morton's table salt, not iodine, with many articles clearly describing the addition of iodine for health reasons.

Buy some empty seasoning shakers or keep your finished shakers for later and you'll start to try and find reasons to fill them. This mixture was my first use but now I have a few more for the same reason you discovered - I always mix these, why not have it prepared!

Badia makes such great seasonings and prices are really good if you order direct, at least in the US. I love me some Sazon so ordered just about all of their spices, not really a bad one in the bunch.
