  30. Another option could be to crawl the forum and turn the public pages into static html file. This would likely require some programming.]]></content>

When you want  your code to perform better, i would always suggest to learn how to optimize your already existing code, rather than jumping to the next tech-stack, because that will probably make things just worse.
  70.  
  71. That's true, but between the performance of Go and Python there's a world of difference, springing from the fact that one is compiled and the other is interpreted.]]></content>

  165.        ><![CDATA[The mining operations take shape. Behind the scenes, the game now keeps track of all ongoing mining operations. Mining is done from orbit, the ship just has to be close enough to planet and the drones will land and do the actual mining. Planets in reach are now listen in the cockpit HUD.
  166.  
  167.  
  168.  
  169. Upon selection of a planet or moon, the mining panel will open, where the play can scan the planet for resources (better scanners will show more results, but right now there is only one type of scanner), and one can launch drones to actually do the mining.
  170.  
  171.  
  172.  
  173. There is still some work left to do. The list selection is missing, so right now always the first drone is sent to mine the first metal found. And the mining operations are not saved yet with the game ... furthermore the drone recall is not working yet. I hope to get that done during the next days. Real life keeps me busy.
  174.  
  175. Edit: I think it's all done, except for bugs that I didn't notice yet. Resource and drone selection works, drone launch and recall works too.]]></content>

  186.        ><![CDATA[Savage Wheels is a 2D car crashing arcade game. You take part of a deadly tournament, the goal of which, is to eliminate all other derby contestants. Players may choose from a variety of vehicles, each vehicle has an unique driver and characteristics like speed, acceleration, armor and damage. Various bonuses may be collected during each match to increase your vehicle's speed, damage or to repair it. Gameplay modes include a campaign, hot-seat mode between two players or a melee mode where vehicles are controlled by fearsome AI opponents. All vehicle drivers have background stories which are uncovered in the campaign mode.
  187.  
  188. Compiled releases are provided for Windows and Linux, and there is an AUR image too. The project is released under the MIT license, and is built with SDL. Although it last saw development in 2016, it has been pretty well worked on over the years.

  228. The plugins are sand-boxed and downloaded on connecting with the server, which some will see as an anti-feature, but I think the long experience with doing that on Quake1 engine shows that this is a good way to avoid game-play monoculture and bring about a lot of creativity.]]></content>

  274. But to be honest, except for locked down bootloader issues on some ARM platforms I don't really see much of a difference to Risc-V etc from a user and software developer perspective. It seems the open-ness around those is mainly interesting for chip producers and those abuse it a lot by adding proprietary extensions to their Risc-V chips. Ultimatly it might drive prices down a bit though as there are no licensing fees like for ARM.]]></content>
