Four out of seven is MOST. "Parts of 2" is all that is required, because you used OR. And realistically, it meets 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7. "Community consensus that it is a roguelike" is not a real definition, anyway. Did you

By your definition, Fortnite is a roguelike.

So do you actually have a definition for roguelike, or no?

So Diablo and Path of Exile are roguelikes?

Words can't just mean what anybody wants, whenever they want. Otherwise communication becomes impossible. Define roguelike. You tell me what you think it means, and we will see if that definition is applied with consistency. > Just

Why do you think a group of people who never played a roguelike (a term with an established meaning for decades) should be the ones to redefine what a term means? The only people who use "roguelike" so loosely are people who never

What I contend is that "when you lose you start over" is the ONLY defining characteristic of what people lately call a "roguelike". And it's not even applied consistently! The term is self-descriptive. It means &quo

It's not really, though. So many games are called "roguelike" from so many different genres that the word has lost all meaning. Near as I can tell, the only thing actually meant by it is "when you lose you start over&quo

Does pyinfra play nicely with devices that provide an SSH interface, but aren't traditional Unix boxes? I use Ansible currently to manage the config on a Ubiquiti EdgeRouter. Using actual Python would be even better.

Do you drive much? It would be QUITE the stretch to say most drivers have "actual intelligence and reasoning." Pattern matching for driving is probably better, frankly. You don't have people who are stressed out, pissed off,

As opposed to cheering on the person who has no power to change prison conditions? Perfect riposte, indeed.

In the model I imagine, the prison is not necessarily involved in dictating what jobs there are. There may be _some_ jobs where you work for "the prison" (janitorial stuff, or a cook). But there are plenty of other things prisoner

To touch on your last point, yes. Prison jobs should be treated basically the same as a real world job, where practicable. You interview for a job, you get paid a fair market rate, you get reasonable paid time off and sick time. On the flip

No. I understand that very well. I am also forced into labor. I suppose I technically COULD just not work. But then I'd have no place to live and no food to eat. That isn't really very much of a choice, is it? I feel like you&#x27

I agree with neither of your false dichotomy points. The purpose of prison, first and foremost, is to protect society from people who are dangerous. Rehabilitation is secondary to that. Additionally it is important to call out that humane d

People who are not in prison have to work to afford their housing, food, clothing, and other necessities. I am not an advocate for the current state of the prison system. But I don't get why people are fundamentally against "priso
