Switorik,

Tried it since the show. It’s a very shallow gameplay loop.

Switorik,

There are wild dino babies that you can take, the graphics are much nicer, the way they do mods is in game and controlled now. Some cost money.

It’s not worth buying again, with the mtx in the mod shop, it should have been free or heavily discounted to owners of ark 1.

Switorik,

I ended up joining the trades. It wasn’t fun but I got to a position I can tolerate.

Switorik,

When I graduated, I had no clue what I was going to do with my life. Still don’t. It’s been 15 years.

I’m not sure how I feel.

Switorik,

I’ve bought all the dlc but I’m still bad 😞

Switorik,

Well now you have me wanting to try it again.

The main issue I’ve been having is getting two monitors to work.

Install Linux, one monitor works. Let’s try changing the driver, permanent black screen.

Reinstall Linux, well maybe I can make one monitor work. Nope. Let’s try and change the driver using the terminal. Oh black screen again.

Ok I’ll only use Linux for coding on one monitor, Windows update somehow lost the boot loader for Linux. I’m not good on grub so I just removed Linux afterwards.

I have another older computer, still Nvidia. Let’s do a clean install. No windows, just Linux. Configure proton on steam, hmm it doesn’t launch games. It just says starting then nothing. No errors. Let’s try different compatibilities, still no errors.

What I experienced is, Linux doesn’t tell you what You’re doing wrong, it just doesn’t work. Which isn’t going to work for the majority of computer users.

If something is having an issue, I want to know why, which unfortunately and fortunately Windows does a good job on.

Switorik,

I’ll try endeavor next time.

If I can get overwatch and steam games to work, I would leave Windows in a heart beat. But I’m also at the point in my life where I can’t spend hours troubleshooting.

Switorik,

Rtx 3080 12gb vram

Switorik,

If my Nvidia graphics card played nicely, I would.

It’s my #1 complaint with Linux… Well Nvidia.

Switorik,

I have a hard time believing any news on this site. Biden could be trying to get more but who knows what his opposition is doing. Are the Republicans stopping him or is he just spewing lies?

We really need more information for a post like this.

What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?

I’m working on a some materials for a class wherein I’ll be teaching some young, wide-eyed Windows nerds about Linux and we’re including a section we’re calling “foot guns”. Basically it’s ways you might shoot yourself in the foot while meddling with your newfound Linux powers....

Switorik,

I updated my graphics card. Twice. On two different systems. Nvidia sucks. Both times resulted in reinstalling Linux entirely.

Switorik,

Unfortunately I use Nvidia. Now I know Nvidia isn’t good for Linux but wasn’t when I planned on using it.

Switorik,

Which doesn’t work, thanks. I wish it did.

Switorik,

Because it’s still an issue.

Switorik,

Unfortunately, I have multiple Nvidia cards. That’s the issue. My Linux machines don’t use Windows, at all.

Switorik, (edited )

Linux is great until you want to update your graphics card or play games. Sure it has gotten much better, but you can’t deny it’s a massive hassle for the majority of new users.

I didn’t realize how hostile the Linux community is. I have an Nvidia card and I’ve never had a pleasant experience trying to make it work.

Switorik,

Diablo 4 was a success?

Switorik,

The game lacked everything. I got it for free using points and was immediately bored and disgusted with its mtx. The story was not good, graphics were eh, and the gameplay was nothing new.

I’m really disappointed with blizzard lately.

Switorik,

This. Holy shit is it frustrating to click a pixel wide scroll bar that is on the edge between two monitors. It’s even worse when they disappear.

Switorik,

Do you know why steam is dominating? There are no better alternatives. They actively work on projects that benefit everyone, including their competition.

For the time being, there’s nothing to be said other than other companies need to stop being so shitty.

Switorik,

I ate at McDonald’s for the first time in a few years. The same meal I used to get on the go now costs over 100% more since before 2020. The only reason I went to McDonald’s was because it was cheap, not because it was good. I don’t think I’ll ever go again.

Fished new wire for the first time!

I posted on here the other day about some suspicious 240v cable and followed the recommendations to replace it. I was already leaning that way but was kind of hoping to be told I was overthinking it. But you all confirmed what I thought. I ran close to 25’ of 10/2 cable from the second story to the basement. Nothing is wired...

Switorik,

I’m an electrician. It is too late but for future reference all new work must be done up to code. An electric dryer requires 10/3 on a 30A breaker that is listed for the panel.

While this is not code compliant, 10/2 will still work but requires you to install the jumper from the neutral to the ground inside the dryer itself.

Switorik,

I use mine all the time. I use it to play games and watch TV/movies through my computer. I plan on using it for my kids account because games are so much cheaper on PC and have support forever.

I can plug any of my controllers in or m&k and have zero issues doing whatever I want.

It’s a shame it died so quickly.
