    1. Yes, portainer will see every container you make, regardless of how it was created.

    2. No, creating a docker container doesn’t make a compose file. It’s like cooking a meal doesn’t output a recipe.

    3. You can save the compose file(s) wherever you want, you just need to run “docker compose up” from that directory. If you make the container within portainer, I believe it stores the compose files in its own volume. Not sure about that, I keep my compose file separate from portainer for most services.


  • I had this character in mind for years and finally took him for a spin a little bit ago.

    (Half)-orc slaver/taskmaster. Bard who cracks a whip as his instrument, shouting orders to the party while casting buff spells.

    “Murkub shoves the barbarian towards the enemies and yells ‘get in there, you coward’, casting Heroism with the touch.”

    Thinks he’s the party leader, but has 8 INT and almost always has to rely on his “thralls” (the rest of the party) to figure out what to do next. My way of playing such a domineering character without actually taking over the whole table’s fun.

    “REJOICE, FOR YOU HAVE BEEN SUBSUMED INTO THE WAR BAND OF MURKUB THE HERALD! GROVEL AT MY FEET, THRALL, AND I MAY YET ALLOW YOU TO SERVE ME IN MY QUEST FOR RICHES AND GLORY!”

    -My character’s introduction to the other characters, and also his first words to the boss at the end of the dungeon (casting confusion with the monologue)






  • I had a kid right when space age came out, so I don’t have much gaming time and am making awfully slow progress. Just killed my first couple worms on Vulcanus to open up a tungsten patch.

    Do you generally make all your planets fully self-sustaining, or do you rely on imports to get things done? In particular, oil is kind of a pain on Vulcanus (though I haven’t yet gotten advanced/ regular coal liquification), so I’m wondering if I’m better off importing ingredients for rocket parts from Nauvis, or if I should just comb out some of my spaghetti and fix my oil industry here?







  • For a similar reason that most coaches don’t actually participate with the athletes they’re training: their job is to watch the athletes, look for gaps in their technique, and help them to address those. You can’t look for that as effectively if you’re swimming alongside them compared to standing on the side of the pool.

    But yeah, all “learn HOW to swim” lessons I’ve ever seen have the instructor in the water with the student, because they have to be like 25% teacher 75% lifeguard.
