He did post this video a couple of days ago, but I had a hard time getting past the intro because I was cringing. Part 1 was great though.

It’s like how banks figured there was more money in catering to the super rich and just shit all over the rest of us peasants, GPU manufacturers that got big because of gamers have now turned their backs to us to cater to the insane “AI” agenda.
Also, friendly advice, unless you need CUDA cores and you have to upgrade, try avoiding Nvidia.

Good times with WinMX. Apparently there’s now a version called DarkMX.

I used “Power Delete Suite”. It edits and “overwrites” your comments first, then deletes it, that way if reddit decides to restore your messages, they’ll be worthless. That’s the idea anyway. It takes a looong while to do so, and it’ll probably whine about a few posts that it can’t edit for one reason of another.

Boxbuddy makes it incredibly easy to use distrobox, a great way to install software that might not be available for your distro, but is available on another distro, or just a way to keep a piece of software in a stable state (like DaVinci Resolve with davincibox).

If you use a “gaming distro”, I’m sure you’ve seen Input Remapper. It’s a neat utility that can create macros for all your peripherals or rebind keys as you like. Want to bind you controller so it works like a mouse? Possible. Want to macro key pressed by using the forward button on your mouse? Possible.

Did you leave Foobar2000 behind when you switched to Linux? Why not give Fooyin a try. It’s a relatively new audio player with aspirations of becoming just as configurable as FB2K. For me replaygain is quite important, and while some other FOSS audio players support it, not many has replaygain generation. And Fooyin does. While also being just as easy to set up and use as Foobar. Worth a look.

Putting this on repeat while I open Heroic Games Launcher and reinstall Deus Ex. One of those “if you see it mentioned it’s an instant replay” games.

Btw, Deus Ex GOTY Edition is discounted by 86% on GOG right now during their Gaming Heatwave Promo. It’s about the price of a can of beans. Worth it if you ask me.
_{(Other good deals, like Hitman games and other Deus Ex titles).}

Well, he explained his psychosis as him suddenly not being able to sleep and then talking to nordic gods like Thor and Loki when his episode was happening, so if you start talking to that rabbit and don’t sleep for like a week, then yeah, maybe it is psychosis 😅

I mean, you could get a psychosis which results in executive dysfunction. I have a friend who had a psychosis which changed him quite a bit.

But where to even start?

If you live somewhere with socialized healthcare, start by visiting your general practioner, your regular doctor or “doctor’s house” and say you suspect you relate to having executive dysfunction (ED). Mind you, ED can be symptom of other things than just ADHD (like ASD), although that is the most common culprit. Hopefully they’ll advice you on where to go next, in my case it was a psychiatrist where I had a waiting list of almost 2 years, but if you go private it’s probably a lot faster.

What a shame, now I can’t buy an overpriced product that shows me real life pop-up advertisements.

You guys, I think Perifractic was in a Star Wars movie haha.
Looking forward to hearing more as this progresses.
I would’ve looked up whether Commodore Corp. had changed hands via KVK: https://www.kvk.nl/bestellen/#/83289348000049466550 but unfortunately it’s paywalled.

It’s just 7 curated mods so far, but it’s better than nothing. I suspect it’ll remain curated and mostly for bigger mods.

EDIT: By pure luck of my YT algorithm I found out that GOG also released a little video explaining what their plan for mods is.

Some of the essays on Morrowind are probably too long. Like this one, almost 8 hours.

Actually, let me just add that to the queue real quick, will fit nicely after the 10 hour Dagothwave video…

Reminder for beltalowda: Telltale, as it rose from its grave, the first game they released upon returning from the dead was “The Expanse: A Telltale Series”, a prequel story about Drummer (who is voiced by Cara Gee).
It’s unfortunately only available on Steam and Epic Games Store on PC and not GOG.

And until I know more about Osiris Reborn, I’m imagining it a bit like Mass Effect based on the description, “story-driven action RPG”.

Oh, I didn’t even notice that, yeah, that’s amazing! Might be a game I buy on release just for that reason. DRM-free should be incentivized after all.

The only controversy I’ve heard of was Manjaro forgetting to renew an SSL license a while back (probably 2 years ago by now), I wasn’t aware there had been other issues.

Thanks. I was hoping there was some way to voluntarily help those stats along. It’s a known phenomenon in the linux community how much we hate leaving a crumb trail of any kind, but it would be nice to send a signal to game developers to start taking us seriously, and that might just be through steam stats after all.

But how does one participate in these statistics? Via the Help menu -> System report -> Submit?

I don’t get the hateboner the linux community has against Manjaro, it’s the only distro that booted correctly in live image mode with full nvidia support on my PC, so seems like they at least take Nvidia pretty seriously.

I just turned 42 and was only just diagnosed with ADHD inattentive type and ASD type 1 last year. The only way I got the idea to get diagnosed was because of my youtube algorithm ending up on videos that talked about neurodivergence, so one could say it was kind of by random chance. And because I might have slightly above average IQ or whatever, I was one of those that could do their homework 1 hour before bedtime the day before it needed handing in. Or when it came to math I’d just do it in the break as soon as we had gotten the homework in the breaks to avoid doing it at home.
