As a general best practice, you should never directly login as root on any server, and those servers should be configured to not allow remote connections as the root user. You should always log in as a non-root user and only run commands as root using sudo or similar features offered by your desktop environment. You should be wary of even having an interactive root shell open; usually I would only do so on a VM console, when first setting up a system or debugging it.

By doing this, you not only guard against other people compromising your system, but also against accidentally running commands as root that could damage your system. It’s always best to only run things with the minimum permissions they need, and then only grant them additional permissions on an as-needed basis.

NixOS. If I’m going to invest that much effort to configure a system I don’t want to have to put up with systemd.

In Shran’s penultimate appearance (The Aenar), the ship he’s commanding is destroyed, and he states he’s probably not going to be given command of another one any time soon. I assume this was meant to lead to him winding up on the Enterprise in season 5 if the events in the finale hadn’t happened instead.

Had a couple of decent runs so far! It’s definitely one of those expeditions where it’s better to do objectives out of order.

When you use a signal booster or a waypoint, it’ll do a zoom out animation, and that’s a good time to watch for nearby water. The glowing crystals you mine from floating minerals and buried mineral formations also have a chance to drop crystal sulphide. Apparently you can also select armoured clams from the guide and get a fix on one, but I’ve never tried that one myself.

Also, as soon as you get base building supplies, consider investing 10 salvaged technology on a Nutrition Processor. You can make critter pellets for just 1 carbon each and distract the hostile creatures.

As I understand it, they previously said they’re not adding any more playable races after the massive amount of work that the Viera and Hrothgar took. They’re adding Hrothgals at some point to go along with the bunboys, and then they’re done.

It’s on Tural, the continent to the west of Eorzea.

They don’t advertise it at all, but the official website has an atom feed at https://www.nomanssky.com/feed/ which you can subscribe to from an rss reader/news reader. Recent entries include expedition announcements and bugfixes.

The new dye system is honestly what I’m most excited about too. And the glasses armor slot!

I’m also wondering if the new strategy board feature lets you create new waymarker sets, because that would be huge.
