[LINUX] Factorio Headless Server Guide

So, with credit to the Factorio wiki and cbednarski's helpful gist, I managed to eventually setup a Factorio headless server. Although, I thought the process could be nailed down/simplified to be a bit more 'tutorialised' and also to document how I got it all working for my future records.

The specific distro/version I'm using for this guide being Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 LTS. Although, that shouldn't matter, as long as your distro supports systemd (just for this guide, not a Factorio headless requirement, although most distros use it as standard now). The version of Factorio I shall be using is 0.14.20, although should work for any version of Factorio 0.14.12 and higher.

Just a note to newcomers: If there are any issues with the installation steps, people in the comments are doing a good job

Disclaimer: Please follow this guide being aware of the fact that I'm not an expert regarding the things outlined below, however I made my best attempt. A few people in IRC confirmed it worked for them and the results looked acceptable.

Attention: After following all the steps run gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders --update-cache as root, this prevents various gdk-related bugs that have been reported in the last few hours. Symptoms are varied, and for Cinnamon the DE fails to start entirely while for XFCE the icon theme seemingly can't be changed anymore etc.

Check the gist's comments for any further tips and instructions, especially if you are running into problems!

Getting credentials for the Mastodon API with Mastodon.py, step by step

Making a bot? Making a bot in Python? Making a bot in Python that uses the Mastodon API? If so, chances are you need to get some credentials. Here's how I did it!

(The following tutorial uses Python 2.7, but if you're using Python 3+ everything should work substantially the same.)

Mastodon.py authentication

I just started using it, but it looks like Mastodon.py is a pretty great library for working with the Mastodon API! However, all of the authentication examples use static files to store credentials, which I don't like—I'm afraid I'll accidentally push them to Github. I like to keep my authentication as close to the actual command that runs the program as possible, so usually I pass them on the command line to the script running my bot. To do this, I need to get the appropriate credentials on their own, as separate strings that I can cut and paste.

Chmod codes cheat sheet

How to use chmod codes in UNIX:

1. There are three types of permissions in files and folders in unix
