  • https://xkcd.com/323/ this? and the fact that most of my programming breakthroughs have come while in "two beers" territory.

    edit: actually, no. MOST of my programming breakthroughs have dawned on me while sitting on the can. But second most is "two beers down".

  • I've always thought the "buy me a cup of coffee" was a thinly veiled euphemism for "give me beer"

    edit: also, I have contributed. There's this one android app that works to translate between different wargaming/miniature painting paint brands (as in color matching), the dev straight up asks for a contribution for beer. It was so brutally honest I had to.

  • the bin and cue files are a cd/dvd image. IIRC you can't mount those directly, but you can convert them to iso with bin2iso (there are probably other tools too)

    iso file you can mount something like mount -o loop /path/to/my-iso-image.iso /mnt/iso and then pull the files out from there.

    As for directly pulling files out from bin/cue.. dunno.

  • oh, right. how silly of me.

  • I've read the comments here and I just don't get it, what does any of this mean?

  • Breaking up with your mom.

  • Haven't had a grill in ages. So hungery.

  • how is it broken? Genuinely asking because my home system is using wayland (kde/plasma too) and works just fine with nvidia with the 555 driver, the previous drivers did have all kinds of stutters admittedly.

    edit: mainly using the system for media playback (youtube, videofiles, audio files) and gaming

  • ooh, shiny.

    Can't wait until my distro gets this to stable repos. I don't have issues atm with 555.whatever version, but seemingly the 560 version does have quite a bit of fixes and improvements.

    Anybody in the know if the gsp is usable / actually offers some benefits in the new version?

  • is Gearbox still in terms with Epic? It'll probably be in holding cells Epic store for a year anyway, and then it'll move to other stores with ULTIMATE EDITION -dlc bundle, with another dlc planned later on which isn't in ULTIMATE EDITION. Wasn't that the play with 3 as well?

    Unless 4 does something truly new for the series, I'm probably not going to get it, at all. Kinda feel like I'm done with the series.

  • the "new" design is pretty much unusable on desktop too, imo. IF I absolutely must visit reddit, old.reddit it is.

  • afaik yea, and yet every time:

    edit: apparently the image was pretty crunchy. basically most of the boycotters are playing the game they're boycotting against.

  • I know it's a circumvention of the issue, and at times annoying, but you can add -site:reddit.com to the search to rule out a site, iirc

  • Yep. Apparently outlook does this and afaik because some kind of link sniffing/scam detection/whatever, but it does it by changing the first characters of each query argument around.

    We spent amazingly long time figuring that one out. "Who the hell has gotten Microsoft service querying our app with malformed query args and why"

  • I only did so because I had installed proton-ge. You know, "when all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail" -type of thing. :D

  • Yea, Wild West is pretty dope. Haven't finished it yet, played few hours and then for some reason managed to forget about it. :|

    I might need to get back on it.

  • Running Galaxy with proton-ge. Sure, it doesn't install linux versions of games or anything, but it works.

    Basically what I did was:

    • run arch btw, obviously and loaded with sarcasm, as always
    • install https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/proton-ge-custom-bin
    • aquired galaxy installer (GOG's site hides download links on linux.. why????)
    • proton gog-galaxy-installer.exe to install. It installs to ~/.local/share/proton-pfx/0/pfx/drive_c/Program Files/GOG Galaxy (or somesuch)
    • I made a shortcut to launch the galaxy.exe with proton from the directory & using the directory as working directory
    • profit.

    Seems to work fine, some older version of proton-ge and/or nvidia driver under wayland made the client bit sluggish, but that has fixed itself. Games like Cyberpunk work fine. The galaxy overlay doesn't, though.
