My theory with a lot of these games that “released badly and then come back” is everyone who disliked the game stopped playing and everyone who liked it kept playing so the crowd playing years later had a positive opinion of it through self selection more than anything the devs did.
I personally liked both Cyberpunk 2077 and No Man’s Sky on release, and while they are better now, I don’t see the night-and-day difference the internet would make you think happened.
Yes there is
Game looks neat but do the devs know what “mirth” means? Weird title.
The reason you do stuff in a venv is to isolate that environment from other python projects on your system, so one Python project doesn’t break another. I use Docker for similar reasons for a lot of non-Python projects.
A lot of Python projects involve specific versions of libraries, because things break. I’ve had similar issues with non-Python projects. I’m not sure I’d say Python is particularly worse about it.
There are tools in place that can make the sharing of Python projects incredibly easy and portable and consistent, but I only ever see the best maintained projects using them unfortunately.
“Anti-pornography” specifically means “anti-LGBT” to them.
I sometimes use VPN software like LogMeInHamachi or Tailscale to play Minecraft multiplayer with friends over the internet.
Basically it makes your computers act as if they are on the same LAN. It should work for playing any game with LAN multiplayer support over the internet.

Having lived on both coasts, I think the “kind but not nice” thing is something people who are actually neither say to feel better about themselves.

What is the “executable” in this context? I’m kinda confused as to what you are looking for.
What’s wrong with parsing the input files at runtime? Is it performance? Do you want one file to load instead of multiple?
Many have suggested pickle, which is kinda what you are asking for, but on some level it’s not much different from parsing the input files. Also, depending on your code, you may have to write custom serialization code as part of getting pickle to work.
Note that pretty much every modern game is a bundle of often multiple pieces of executable code alongside a whole bunch of separate assets.
I do think the voice acting is god awful in a lot of places in the original.
The OG version is still on GoG! Includes all of the original DLC but none of the new PSN bull.
That’s a good point which is part of why there is a lot of active research into quantum networking. Once you can connect two otherwise independent quantum computers, you no longer have the issue of increasing crosstalk and other difficulties in producing larger individual quantum chips. Instead you can produce multiple copies of the same chip and connect them together.
Because the math checks out.
For a high level description, QEC works a bit like this:
10 qubits with a 1% error rate become 1 EC qubit with a 0.01% error rate.
You can scale this in two ways. First, you can simply have more and more EC qubits working together. Second, you can near the error correcting codes.
10 EC qubits with a 0.01% error rate become one double-EC qubit with a 0.0001% error rate.
You can repeat this indefinitely. The math works out.
The remaining difficulty is mass producing qubits with a sufficiently low error rate to get the EC party started.
Meanwhile research on error correcting codes continues to try to find more efficient codes.
I mean the known theory of quantum error correction already guarantees that as long as your physical qubits are of sufficient quality, you can overcome decoherence by trading quantity for quality.
It’s true that we’re not yet at the point where we can mass produce qubits of sufficient quality, but claiming that EC is not known to work is a weird way to phrase it at best.
And guess who constantly lobbies and sues to keep things that way?
There should be a way to pay through your banks bill pay system. You may have to dig for it. Ask you landlord for the info if you really can’t find it online.
If you pay through your bank’s website it will not charge you a convenience fee.
Error correction does fix that problem but at the cost of increasing the number of qubits needed by a factor of 10x to 100x or so.
