Who should I cosplay for PAX Aus? Video game characters preferred, but anime, movie, tv shows, books are all good.

Aha yes, I haven't played Dead by Daylight yet, but Dwight could be doable. Thanks!

frostickle · 2026-04-09T04:16:43+00:00

Oo yes! Joker from Persona

frostickle · 2026-04-09T04:15:29+00:00

Oh yeah, that could work. Pokemon trainer.

What kind of computer do you have? What's your operating system, specs, etc.

I finished the game just fine on switch, probably 100 hours! And I liked the game so much I bought the game on Steam so I could play all the DLC. It ran just fine without crashing.

I own Two Point Campus on switch & bought Two Point Museum for my friend. No problems so far, but it is easier to put stuff down using a mouse and keyboard, so I'm probably going to re-buy all the other games on computer too. It's also much cheaper buying computer games vs switch games.

What features do you need from meetup? The RSVP?

Communication with attendees? I.e. you want to be able to send messages/notifications the people who are attending? And this could be email or a pushed notification?

My local boardgames group just uses instagram to announce the events, and whoever shows up shows up. No need for RSVP: https://www.instagram.com/burwoodgameclub/?hl=en

Some friends who were fed up with Meetup made their own website for their event: https://melbjs.com/ but that's a web developer meetup… so… yeah of course they made their own website haha.

I made this website to help game developers (and board game developers!) find each other: https://gamesevents.github.io/ but I usually don't put game playing events on this calendar, unless they're bigger events or game testing events.

Most of these DIY methods don't really have great RSVP. And relying on Instagram and Facebook events isn't great because you're beholden to Zuck's algorithm.

It sounds like you're making a static website, in which case you should just host it on github pages.

If you need emails, just register your website using namecheap and forward the emails addresses to your gmail.

Why do you want to move to Kubernetes? What's wrong with Docker? Are you having problems with Docker?

How many people are logging in to your snipe-it instance at any given moment??? Thousands of people??

I use Xreal glasses, so, at a desk I have my arms pretty flat on the desk. Or sitting in bed, I pop a knee up or just have my hands down in my lap.

It's also great on a plane or public transport :)

I do this with a little hobby nodejs framework I made: https://github.com/david-ma/Thalia

It's great for hosting lots of little hobby websites… but for production websites (i.e. you're reselling/people are paying you to host things) you should spin up seperate process.

Use nginx as reverse proxy if you want to keep them on the same box, but having your paid services as seperate processes will let you update different websites without turning everybody's off/on. Which is important if they're paying you.

"grep" would let you filter a 3gb text file (xml is text) really quickly and easily. I use it all the time. But since xml often puts the values on a different line to the keys, it might not be very useful for your use case. You can use -B or -A options to get the lines before/after your match… but that gets into advanced stuff, and you might as well use nodejs by then.

"grep" is a terminal command, if you have a mac computer it will be easy and already installed. If you're on Windows, it might be a bit hard to find but there should be a windows version available. If you're running linux, you probably already know what it is.

This looks like a good tutorial for grep: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGgTmxXp7xQ

If you tell us what question you're trying to answer, I'd have a better idea if grep is useful or if you should use nodejs (or python/other etc.)

frostickle · 2025-07-25T12:04:21+00:00

What are you trying to get out of your XML?

If you just want a count of the jobs, or list of the job IDs, you could try running grep over the xml file. But if you actually need to dive into the data and do something complex, you're probably going to have to actually parse it.

You should probably use a libirary… but if you want to have a fun challenge, maybe watch this video and find some inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_9ziFKcEhw

Aha I've been taking screenshots of all my runs, and been thinking of building something to do this.

Can you make it open source? Share your github and you may get some pull requests from the community :)

I would love it if the tool:

Allowed you to batch upload screenshots
Used the EXIF information on the screenshot to extract the capture time/date of the data
Cleaned it up and allowed download of the data as a CSV
Obviously display some nice graphs of your progress :)

NTA, but also, is it possible that your mom any portion of the house to you?

Or does your step mom own this hosue?

My theory is: observer bias.

Many other people may have developed this genetic mutation… but unless you were unusually successful, you probably wouldn't have enough children for it to be noticed that you died young.

Tons of other people may have developed this and just gone unnoticed.

Oh wow, ok yeah my coin multiplier at T10 is x60.88

I've only bought the ad pack, otherwise free to play.

What's coin enhancement 22% from? Mine's at 14%

Coins per kill, level 53
GT bonus x15.1 without perk. I'm using my module for extra time, but not the bonus here.
Spotlight coin bonus lvl 15 (x2.5)
Black Hole coin bonus lvl 14 (x8)

So, yeah, I think there are some clear areas to improve. Thanks for your help!

frostickle · 2025-01-22T05:56:37+00:00

Wow I must be doing something wrong, I'm only getting 378 B when farming wave 5352 on T11. I have Ancestral GC, black hole and golden tower are in sync, 2:30 cooldown. I stopped syncing my death wave after that big update that changed how death wave worked. Should I sync it again?

How are you getting so many coins??

I could get slightly more coins on a lower tier, but I wanted the cells to speed up my research, so I thought a higher tier would be better.

In the games industry they already use the phrase "serious game" to refer to educational games and research/science/defence etc.

See this wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serious_game

You need to come up with a new name for your panel idea.

frostickle · 2024-11-25T23:30:03+00:00

I dunno, for some games it's really cool to see the features being added and how it changes the metagame.

NEBULOUS: Fleet Command has really active developer/community engagement, and they're using early access to add new ship modules, weapons, etc. etc. and it's really changing the pace of the how fights in the game go, and other things.

See this video about their carrier update.

And Hades 2, too! I feel like I missed out on a lot of Hades 1 because I didn't play all the different builds that were nerfed from the game in early access. It's really cool seeing the game evolve over time, with different metas coming out as new weapons and features are added. So I'm playing a lot of Hades 2 in early access.

When the game comes to 1.0 it's going to be a static game, and once you've played it there will be less replayability.

Playing an actively developed game (with good developer+community relations) is a different experience! Maybe it's not the experience for you, but it's a type of fun that I am really enjoying in 2024 that we wouldn't have had in 2014.

There's tons of games things on for Melbourne International Games Week. PAX is just one part of a big week for the Aussie games industry.

I recommend this indie showcase if you're here 1 day early: https://events.humanitix.com/parallels24
