I’ve never played a soulslike games because they are a bit intimidating to me. Amy recommendations for soulslikes games to start on or for beginners to the genre?
You could try Animus: Stand Alone, the android version isn’t available anymore but the PC, Xbox, Switch and iOS versions seem to still be available. It had a sequel called Animus: Harbinger but it seems like only the Switch and iOS versions are the only ones still available. There was also a third Animus game but Revenant is quite different from the first two.
Another game I can recommend is Castlevania: Curse of Darkness. It was only ever available for the PS2 and Xbox but it’s gameplay, especially during bosses, is similar to dark souls.
I see there are several different ways to install OSRS on Linux - flatpaks, Android emulators, Steam, etc. - but can anyone recommend the best as far as ease of setup? With lack of glitches being the second priority?...
It’s been a while since I’ve played either Runescape or OSRS and my accounts were never upgraded to Jagex accounts, if I upgrade one of them to a Jagex account, is it possible to link my other account to that same Jagex account?
I once saw a video where a guy was talking to his sister’s best friend about Fallout 3. He didn’t know how to leave the vault without killing the overseer and she said that she would only help him if he banged her.
I didn’t see anyone else mention this but, as someone who uses Linux Mint, if you are going to install software through the Software Manager, read the reviews for the app you want before downloading it. Linux Mint’s Software Manager is full of apps that are so outdated that some of them aren’t even compatible with the current version of Linux Mint. There are other issues as well, like how there are at least 20 different versions of Wine and most of them are very old versions. I’d understand if they want to keep legacy apps for the older, still supported, versions of Linux Mint but it can be confusing to use sometimes.
I feel like I do this a lot with podcasts. I started watching the Gus and Eddy podcast and finished it about a month before the last episode was released for example....
I’ve forgotten the name but there was an “adult” MMO made for android devices that I played a while back. After I completed the tutorial, I was shown the announcements and it stated that the the game’s service was to end in about week.
I feel like I should have more but I can’t remember anything else.
I recently found out about a Linux Distro named Q4OS and I wanted to test out their claim that it only requires 256 MB of ram when using the trinity desktop environment. However, when I used the live cd in virt-manager with 256 MB or ram, it just kernel panicked at boot. So I then tried it with 512 MB of ram. In addition to some...
RIght, I forgot that 64-bit binaries use more ram. And seeing that the 64-bit version does work fine with 1 GB of ram, in the off chance that there is something that should work but requires a 64-bit OS, I would still have the option to use the 64-bit version.
I was actually testing the trinity 64-bit version because it was the only version that had a live cd. I actually just downloaded the 32-bit version and I’m about to try it out.
On their website, it states that the minimum requirements for the OS are 256 MB, that’s what I was going off of. I even mentioned in my post that even if it was installable on a computer with 256 MB of ram that it would be pretty much useless.
Also, I just tested the 32-bit version and, like what another user stated, it does use less than 256 MB of ram, which means that their claim is right.
I’ve been looking into lightweight Linux distros on and off for a while now, so I have heard of LXQt. The only problem is that I have no experience with installing a desktop environment, so if there is a distro that can use it and it would use less ram than the 32-bit version of Q4OS (which is already less than 256 MB), I’d want a distro that has it preinstalled.
It would be easy if there was a list/database that contained a sort-able list of how much ram every distro used. But I’ve never found one, the closest was a list of lightweight distros on Wikipedia but that list is very outdated and is also missing a lot of distros.
I’m not familiar with Fedora, as I’ve only ever used Debian and Debian derivatives. I also can’t seem to find any information on the system requirements for the LXQt spin of Fedora. I may still check it out in the future because I don’t know if I will always stick with the Xfce edition of Linux Mint for my main computer, but right now I’m just looking for a Linux distro for my old computer and Q4OS seems to be fine.
The main reason I’m currently staying with Linux Mint is because it’s what I have installed and it works for me. I may switch to a different distro in the future but right now, I have no reason to. I’d also have concerns about software availability, which from what I’ve seen, Debian (and I think Arch to some extent) currently has the most software available.
Also, Xfce is currently in the process of adding support for Wayland. They have stated in their roadmap that they want full support for Wayland in version 4.20 and they are working on porting everything and making sure that everything works. You can read about their current progress here: https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap
For example, I personally can’t listen to Guns and Roses without immediately thinking “that Axl sure is an asshole”, and that sours the entire experience.
On a very old computer of mine, the “y” key was completely missing and I couldn’t replace it because the contacts were broken so I just use JoytoKey and a USB SNES controller.
I’ve also used a similar setup for navigating some image boorus but, for obvious reasons, I wont specify anything further.
My journey with Lemmy started in 2022 out of interest in the fediverse and paranoia around how much control social media companies have, and how little choice common people are left with over the Internet....
I started using Lemmy a few years ago because of the blackout that happened then (the one that started because they hired a known pedophile apologist as an admin). When Reddit fired her and made what they considered an apology, I continued to use both just simply because I didn’t like the fact that their apology sounded like they were disappointed in the community for not supporting pedophilia.
When the second blackout happened (the one caused by the API changes) I didn’t support the statements that Spez was spouting about the app developers. At first I waited to see what their response was to the blackout but they, more specifically Spez, made it obvious that they didn’t care, so I deleted my Reddit account and started only using Lemmy.
I have an account for both but I don’t really use them. The only thing I’ve done on Matrix was upload a profile picture and the only thing I use Discord for currently, is just to keep up with the updates for AI Dungeon because for some reason they’ve decided that the patch notes shouldn’t be accessible in the actual game/website anymore and have moved them to a completely different platform.
I’d probably use them more but I haven’t found a Matrix chatroom that I would actually consider using and most of the Discord servers I’ve actually considered interacting with act like cliques.
Assuming you’re counting stories where the villain did very bad things for the purpose of a doing something good, there is an anime from 2005 called Speed Grapher.
I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don’t hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don’t even use.
There are three things, off the top of my head, that I can recall buying but either not using very much or not for it’s intended purpose. The first item is a portable bluetooth keyboard, I got it for the purpose of playing games on my android devices with it but the problem is that I haven’t found many games that actually even have keyboard support. The second item is a portable bluetooth mouse, it’s the same as the keyboard but with the additional issue of not working with my tablet for some reason. The third item is a DS flashcart, I forgot what it’s called but it’s the one from Datel and I had so many problems with it that I’ve been using it’s “Gigapack” for transferring small files between my two computers.
It’s been a while since I’ve had tea and it’s not fancy or anything but what I did was I would start off with either an unsweetened green or black tea bag (just whatever I had at the time) and steep it in twice as much water that was recommended on the box. After I removed the tea bag, I would then add a lemonade drink mix and either 1 packet of sugar for green tea or 2 packets of sugar for black tea.
I don’t remember any specific combinations of brands but I think I remember sweeter lemonades working better with green tea and tart lemonades working better with black tea. Just avoid True Lemon, I haven’t tried their other drink mixes but I remember the regular lemonade drink mix being terrible in tea.
