yeah it's kinda awful, but I like linking directly to amazon even less lol

fwiw I've had this one for like 3 years now, no complaints. think it's slightly cheaper on ex amazon tho https://aquatru.com/products/carafe-countertop

since you haven't said anything about type of game, if you want to start at the dead simple side and visual novels sound interesting maybe look at Ren'py?

visual novels have less going on than a big 3d game, so if you want an easy start from 0 it should be as close as you can get. python is straightforward if you don't have programming experience, but otherwise is really commonly used so gives a nice basis for whatever else you want to do.

ren'py also has gotten plenty of commercial use if you wanted to go further in that direction. most big name vn games use it.

sure, but both of those are significantly better than a css file. tailwind tends to match the internal structure better, css in js tends to match the component structure better.

tailwind doesn't have a runtime though, where css in js libs generally do. not that that's a big point. the difference is mostly preference

it matches the component model of react etc

you have to be more specific lol

just tesselate the world with hexagons and say you're in a specific one? that doesn't give precise proximity but does expose your general area.

this does the opposite, doesn't expose your general area but let's you determine if it is close to some other location via an expensive comparison. the precision of proximity isn't tied to how precise a location/small a hexagon you're exposing

sorry no, the servarr site. look at this section for docker info. I think the links from there should have most of the background info

the docker builds it uses are unofficial technically, but the source is here, you can see that the only thing it does is download the official build

the first dockerfile linked on the official site is pretty simple. read it to make sure it's safe, then build it locally yourself.

as per the first paragraph of the intro of the linked paper, it's safer to store this than it is an actual location. if data gets leaked it's like leaking a hashed password instead of a plaintext one. their example is device trackers.

the state of texas agrees

this isn't a community that they moderate tho

Stardew valley or any of the Lego games are pretty good for casual coop games
