    Cool... I didn't realize Coffee Stain Studios was from Skövde, Sweden. They published Valheim and a few other games, but they also actually developed Satisfactory, Goat Simulator, and Sanctum / Sanctum 2 (really good FPS/Tower Defense games) themselves, as well.

    Gotcha. I was wondering why you posted the Istagram version. I changed the link back to Ista. If anyone wants the YouTube version they can find it in my comment.

    Ah, that sucks. But isn't that issue specifically just for the dedicated server software? The game client itself has built in peer to peer hosting via LAN, online direct IP, SteamP2P, or EosP2P (Epic), which should still work on Linux. The only disadvantage to it is the person hosting will need to leave the game running so other people can still connect even when the host isn't around.

    Edit: Hostari guide for setting up dedicated server on Linux:

    You can also apparently use this Docker container:

    https://github.com/TrueOsiris/docker-vrising

    Although both of those may need updating now with the 1.0 release.

    V Rising - Launch Trailer

    Anyone else play V Rising yet? I played the Early Access versions quite a bit with some friends, and it's quite good, IMO. The devs are also pretty awesome too. Frequent updates, and no pay2win crap, only purely cosmetic DLC to further support development.

    NP. Glad you enjoyed it! :)

    I was hooked on Hobo as soon as I saw their Tiny Desk Contest audition video. I dig spoken word. Not all, since it can be super hit or miss, but Hobo hits all the right notes for me; Quirky, unique voice, clever lyrics, passionate, a heartfelt message. He reminded me a lot of Listener, another spoken word artist I'm a big fan of.

    Speaking of cicadas on/in food. Good Mythical Morning recently did a "Will It... " episode where the final dish was a Cicada Enchilada. They've eaten a LOT of insects over the years, but Rhett said it was by far the best tasting insect he's ever had... and that they were surprisingly nutty tasting. :P

    LOL. That is definitely the best description/comparison of it I've heard. :P Although sadly it was lacking an Oskar Schindler type hero character... it only had the Amon Göth-like villain. :(

    like a twisted combination of The Neverending Story and Schindler's List

    Thanks, CBS is far more reputable. Although dismissing every anti-Israel protest happening on campuses around the US as being "antisemitic" due to a few isolated incidents of actual antisemitism and violence is rather absurd, IMO.
