ComicalMayhem,

my critical thinking skills are sorely lacking because this makes a lot of sense and I’ve never thought of this point before

Linux Cinnamon Mint live session Wi-Fi issues

Linux noob using mint for the first time, decided to boot from a flash drive before fully installing on my PC, just to try it out first. I’m having issues getting Wi-Fi to work during the live session though; clicking the Wi-Fi icon only brings up Network Settings and Network connections. Network connections lets me try to set...

ComicalMayhem, (edited )

did the lspci -vv command, if the network controller is the WiFi chip, then I got: Network Controller: Realtek Semiconductor Con., Ltd. Device b85b. Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 88e6. Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 255, IOMMU group 10 I/O ports at f000 [disabled] [size=256] Memory at fce00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [disabled] [size=1M] Capabilities: <access denied>

not sure if that’s the right thing. I also found another command that supposedly returns only the wireless card lspci -vq | grep -i wireless -B 1 -A 5 but that only returns the following line: pcilib: Error reading /sys/bus/PCI/devices/0000:00:08.3/label: Operation not permitted

I did the sudo dmesg command, but it returned so much info I’m not sure what’s relevant or not. Is there anything specific within the log I should be looking for?

ComicalMayhem,

Not sure how to connect to my phone’s hotspot via Bluetooth, or if my Bluetooth drivers also need updating lmao. What drivers should I be looking for then, and where can I find them?

ComicalMayhem,

The sudo rfkill --list command just returns rfkill: unrecognized option. Appending sudo to the beginning of the other command I listed (the -vq | grep one) didn’t work: it returns pcilib: Error reading /sys/bus/PCI/devices/0000:00:08.3/label: Operation not permitted`.

I’ll check out that site and see if there’s anything there that can help. otherwise I might just format the drive and do a clean install, see if maybe that will fix it.

ComicalMayhem,

Interesting short! Are you planning to continue this?

Arrowhead CEO says Helldivers 2 balancing patches have 'gone too far' recently: 'It feels like every time someone finds something fun, the fun is removed' (www.pcgamer.com)

Replying to a player on Twitter who said recent patches have made the game “unplayable,” Arrowhead CEO Johan Pilestedt conceded that he’s not satisfied with his studio’s current balancing approach....

ComicalMayhem,

only adds up if you find them, which is pretty hard on higher difficulties, considering you’re in a mad rush to finish the mission, much less survive long enough to extract.

I don't know anything about Linux and the idea of installing it frightens me. Where do I start?

I bought a laptop yesterday, it came pre-installed with Windows 11. I hate win 11 so I switched it down to Windows 10, but then started considering using Linux for total control over the laptop, but here’s the thing: I keep seeing memes about how complicated or fucky wucky Linux is to install and run. I love the idea of open...

ComicalMayhem,

dude I fucking love spider, read the light novels and everything, but man I fucking hate how it ended. ruined it for me
