    I played Early Access and even as an avid factorio player I wasn’t convinced.

    There is something that makes it meaningless in the fact we are just building shapes.

    In Factorio, if I create a battery factory I just automated a core component for a specific range of items and technologies.

    In Shapez, you make an arbitrary shape and that’s it.

    It wasn’t for me.

    Now I will give it another chance and I totally understand that to some it might be a purer form of factory management games, but to me it will probably lack purprose.

    Interested to check the Manufacture mode though.

    Meh it’s not like Linux is one static block of immutable code.

    It’s modular.

    So it’s not like all linux distros will evolve the same way. And OP points it out that some distros are affected by age verification laws while others are not at all.

    So I think it makes no sense to panic and thinking all linux will converge to some Windows ersatz…

    I think the fact there is so many distros out there is our strength but also what prevents people from discovering the right linux for them.

    So this will be the year of linux discovery imo and all linux user should help out new users finding their way to a linux that fit them for their journey to freedom.

    I think you choose a poor example.

    When I say long name I wasn’t implying meaningless ones.

    Most business with a lot of machines uses long names where everything as a logical meaning.

    [Site][service][Rack][User selected 8 chars name]

    I mean you dont have to use such obtuse names. But if you have a lot of servers you have to have a long name or you will risk exhausting the available names.

    I’m just saying long names dont have to be obtuse or confusing. You can use user selected names as a suffix to a more functional initial prefix. So that people who work this area of the infrastructure can have clear names but at the same time some other sys admin that never worked on it can still know where and who is responsible of the server.

    My initial point is just that the namespace and length of hostnames mostly depends on what you want to do. For a homelab you dont need wide namespace. But for a large business using short names wouldn’t be practical either.
