"If Trumps doing it, then its okay!" is not the argument you seem to think it is.
i agree, We dont relly need photoshops and lies, when theres plenty of truth out there thats humiliating enough as is.
but as you can see, theres a lot of people who don't give a shit about right, as long as they can dunk on the person they dont like. Same issue as those fake TPUSA tweets people were obsessed with making a few years ago. Does nothing but muddy waters and provide cover for right wing actions.
Huh, yeah, Piper just isnt writing the DPI data at all. I can write it with the ratbagctl command you gave me, but if i change it in piper it just erases everything and goes back to default.
guess Im gonna try to just use my old windows laptop like someone else suggested to write settings to the mouse.
I have a old windows laptop that I can use to avoid all this complication, lol. ty everyone for the replies.
I hope that fixes the random DPI resetting, too.
mods have been deleting my comments that remind people that Biden and the Democrats gleefully committed genocide and lost the election for their refusal to even suggest they’ll stop it.
Why they are so threatened by AOC and Sanders, and the calls for the old guard to GTFO
I fully expect the DNC to launch a bigger underhanded attack against the both of them than the Republicans do.
I have 32gb of ram.
I literally only upgraded so I could install more mods in minecraft and cities skylines 1.
Help with g502 hero on linux?
I have no idea where to post this, I assumed..since its a gaming mouse, the gaming linux community would be appropriate, Apologies if I am mistaken.
I have a g502 hero, and it is giving me no end of grief.. namely with regards to the DPI settings.
First and foremost, it just randomly resets itself to an absurdly high DPI
I use Piper, since everything I've found online says Piper works great for g502 mice on linux, and while I can use it to set the colors of the LEDs.. the DPI settings just don't stick.
I've tried setting all the DPI options to the same DPI I prefer, Doesnt work. I've tried disabling all the DPI settings except one, and doesnt work. I've even tried running piper via sudo and the DPI settings still don't change on the mouse (they change in Piper, though)
It seems like nothing I can set, as far as DPI goes, works. I know it is communicating with the mouse cause, like I said, I can change the LED colors and button configs.. but the DPI settings just wont stick, and w
The media is desperate to look unbiased, but they don't want to look unbiased by being unbiased and fairly reporting on Trump.. So they report shit like this, so they can create the false appearance of unbiasedness while making sure most/all of trumps infantile retaliation will end up directed towards the subject (in this case, Alex Jones)
this template was ancient when new vegas was new, lol
Yep, cause AMD and Intel GPU drivers are in the kernel itself, to update the drivers you gotta update the kernel.
Which you can, admittedly, do on any distro.. but with gaming distros (with AMD or Intel GPUs) you at least get them in your system update as soon as they are available without having to constantly check and manually update.
Which is why I try to steer people towards gaming focused distros when they want to game on linux. Just one of the many things gaming distros do to make less headache.
if you are on nvidia you might not want to be on a rapidly updating kernel distro, since their drivers are..special.
Yes.
Not to you or me, but there are tons of people, even here, that are absolutely incredulous towards the idea that its possible.
What a great way to make sure your house and car continue to get egged, more aggressively and more regularly to boot.
Another example of why there are no good cops.
because good ones never get the chance to be good.
Luigi is a bright, shinning example of what happens when the powers that be stop listening to the complaints and needs of the peasantry.
You'd think they'd have learned that the last several dozen times lords got too high and mighty and triggered a violent revolt/uprising.. but alas..
eager and tentative seem kinda feel like they are distant opposites in this situation.
Yeah, Give it a shot if you have the chance.
Worse case is you've given it a fair shake and still don't like it, and thats perfectly valid.
Its not a bad game, personally I think its in the top ranks for best games of all time, but not every game meshes with every persons likes/dislikes, and its perfectly okay to just shrug your shoulders and say "I gave it a fair shot, but i just couldnt get into it"
I used to live in a heavily Hispanic area, and I can tell you there absolutely will be nothing learned from any of it.
Cause any Republican attacks against Hispanics were always hand-waved away with some variant of "Of course, they're talking about (insert Hispanic group the speaker hates), not about the good ones like (insert Hispanic group the speaker belongs to). If it wasnt for (hated group) fucking it all up things would be better for all of us!"
Republicans don't make such distinctions, to Republicans all Hispanics are just Mexicans.
Which is how the leopards facial feast was laid out.
Glad I'm not the only one with that view.
Never played BoF4, but glad its on PC and playable now.. Just hope the hype makes BoF3 get the same treatment... cause my PS1 disk has a crack in it and I really miss the world that BoF3 built.
DNC thumbing the scales is why we ended up with Trump twice. cause they kept insisting on running candidates no one wanted.
"I just don't understand why he betrayed Us, I mean.. he did nothing but campaign on open contempt for our people, but surely he cant be held accountable for that! This is just so unexpected and blindsiding us!"

gamers nexus just dropped a 3 hour video where they talk to various companies involved in the consumer PC space, some of whom really open up about their costs and economics and how operating in america just isnt feasible under the current tariffs
I did it! I finally freaking did it!
Not once, since Fallout 4's release, in god only knows how many hundreds of hours of play time, have I gotten the perfectly preserved pie..
UNTIL TODAY.
I jumped up in such excitement that I smashed my knee into my desk and now walk like a feral, but god damnit who cares about pain when you have THE PIE.

Does unopened resin go bad?
I was cleaning out my project closet the other day and I found an entire bottle of resin for my printer, still sealed and unopened... but it is several years old at this point.
I didnt see an expiration date or anything on it, so I just wanted to ask before I open it and potentially make a huge mess... Does Resin Expire or otherwise go bad with time if its factory sealed? or in general?
As a passenger in the car, whats the things a driver does that pisses you off, makes you uncomfortable, or terrifies you?
Personally, I find it endlessly frustrating and even terrifying to be in the passenger seat with a driver who jumps in the car and immediately goes.. Then worries about Seatbelts/Radio/AC/Mirrors/Plugging in Phone/etc etc while driving.

But it'll probably be better known as the Mako Mk.2 by anyone who played Mass Effect 1, because holy shit its the Mako.
How to install Fallout London on Steam On Linux
I spent 3 days trying to get FOLON to work following both the official website guide and every post I could find on the internet, and I finally said fuck it and played around with it myself and figured out how to get it running.
I'm posting here in case anyone else has had the same problems I did and don't have a solution. The first half is pretty much identical to their instructions
This does not use the FOLON Downgrader, Because I dont like the idea of signing into my steam account through someone elses program.
Also don't be in a steam beta. Use release steam
"Starfield's lead quest designer had 'absolutely no time' and had to hit the 'panic button' so the game would have a satisfying final quest"
"It became very clear that we were missing the large final location that was going to tie the story together," says former lead quest designer Will Shen.
""We were finally at a state in the project where we could play through the whole [game]. And it became very clear that we were missing the large final location that was going to tie the story together and have a satisfying action-filled payoff," Shen said. "I was both implementing the main quest and leading the quest design team, so I had absolutely no time. The entire quest design team was already overbooked.""
The quest design team being overbooked and not having time certainly explains a lot.
Would Nuclear Weapons be as destructive in ship to ship space combat, as they are on the ground in an atmosphere?
As far as I know, the big damage from Nuclear Weapons planetside is the massive blastwave that can pretty much scour the earth, with radiation and thermal damage bringing up the rear.
But in space there is no atmosphere to create a huge concussive and scouring blast wave, which means a nuclear weapon would have to rely on its all-directional thermal and radiation to do damage.. but is that enough to actually be usful as a weapon in space, considering ships in space would be designed to handle radiation and extreme thermals due to the lack of any insulative atmosphere?
I know a lot of this might be supposition based on imaginary future tech and assumptions made about materials science and starship creation, but surely at least some rough guess could be made with regards to a thernonuclear detonation without the focusing effects of an atmosphere?
Steam Link broken on linux? Anyone have experience?
I set up Steam Link on my raspberry pi to try and do some couch gaming over the holiday.. but its no bueno. I am on a 5600x/6700xt with wayland on linux, and steam is up to date.
I get a black screen with a mouse cursor.
I try launching steam with the -pipewire command as i've read elsewhere, and I can see big picture mode, but its horribly slow.. But the weird thing is, its only steam/games thats slow. The mouse runs in real time without lag, and any sounds run in real time without lag or hiccup. But the video is like 1 frame per minute, so I can push left on the d-pad and have to sit and wait forever for the selection on the TV to move (even though its moved over immediately on the desktop).
Games are the same issue. Game runs fine on the desktop, audio runs fine on the streamed TV, but the video is just like..slide show.
I've tried running it at the lowest possible image quality settings. at low bandwidth, at high bandwidth, at the max the network test suggested, tried turning
You get 3 wishes. No monkey paw twisting it to hurt you mechanic. What do you wish for?
Is the 6800 non XT worth the price increase over the 6700/6750xt?
I'm currently running a rx580 (with a 5600x and 16gb of ram), and its finally starting to show its age and not be able to run at the settings i would prefer, at the frames I would like.
This is a card I'll probably, barring its sudden demise, be sticking with for the next 5-6 years, So keep that in mind too. I know vram demand in games is on the rise too, even for 1080p, which is why I have not considered any 8gb cards like the 6600 or the 7600.
I've narrowed my choices down to the 6700xt, 6750xt and rx6800 (non-xt). Which will be used almost entirely for 1080p gaming (maybe 1440p if my current monitor dies and I'm forced to replace it)
6700xt is attractive simply because its the cheapest. 6800 is attractive cause its more powerful, which I would hope means I'd get a bit more extra time out of it.
6750xt is kinda stuck in the middle.. -100ish bucks cheaper than the 6800, but also 70-90ish bucks more expensive than the 6700xt, and from all the reviews I've seen, it seems like it onl
Outer Worlds Spacers Choice Edition: Horrible, Nausea inducing texture/model flickering. Please help?
I am trying to get Outer Worlds: Spacers Choice edition working, but it has horrible texture flickering, regardless of the proton version of in game graphic settings.
And I dont mean like, color strobing or anything, World Textures and NPCs both flicker rapidly in and out of existence, to the point you can see through them to whats behind them. I have never had an issue with flickering lights or anything before, but its so intense its even causing me nausea to look at it.
I have tried many combinations of in game graphic settings from low to ultra, with no effect whatsoever.
I have also tried several different versions of proton ( Experimental, 7.0-6, 8.0-2 and various versions of GE Proton from 7-20 to 8-6 ) None of which has altered the behavior in any way.
I'm on Ubuntu 22.04, Using Wayland, and my MESA drivers are up to date. I have a RX580 and a 5600x CPU, with 16g of ram. Edit: I am also on kernal 6.3, not an older one.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.
