I didn’t really point much out. I only know that multiplayer games use either Steam or GOG Galaxy to log in and that there aren’t many more OpenXR runtimes besides SteamVR on Linux (I know of WiVRn, but I had an Nvidia GPU and couldn’t figure out how to compile the Vulkan extensions required). I already find it tedious to manually set up save file synchronization for my GOG games, so I really can’t be arsed to go much further when Steam just does it all for me. I’ve never actually tried multiplayer on GOG with Linux.

I already use it, but thanks for recommending it. It’s really great. Here on Lemmy, I think the number of Linux users is in the thousands, not dozens.

I do the exact same, but I also buy multiplayer and VR games on Steam, because I run Linux, and GOG Galaxy isn’t out on Linux (yet). I really don’t want to faff about getting all of that working on each individual game. I bought Rain World and FTL on GOG, but Star Wars: Battlefront 2 on Steam.

I smell a ten-figure fine cooking in the kitchen of the EU.

Poor Gestapo, they’ll have to scrape Facebook for their Orwellian products instead of getting the data spoon-fed to them ;(

I tried to get it, but the copied link is about:blank. Try using an instance of Redlib to see it.

They were always collected when not in use. We don’t get personal devices, we either go to the computer room, where every screen can be seen by the teacher at once a la panopticon, or we get a trolley full of laptops that we hand in at the end of the lesson. You can also BYOD that isn’t a smartphone, so long as you don’t use it during lesson time when the teacher doesn’t permit it.

I last played it when I was was quarantining due to testing positive on COVID-19. Did they add Natlan or Fontaine? Are the characters whiter than the white pharaoh again?

The other commenter gave useful information, but I would implore that you try to change your suspend mode from “deep” to “s2idle”. Deep (S3) sleep, alongside S4 sleep, are unfortunately not very well supported by manufacturers, at least from what I’ve heard.

The easiest way to find something that could help is journalctl -r --boot=-1 after rebooting your laptop. These options will display all of the entries in reverse chronological order, starting from when you powered the computer off. When you find something complaining about waking from suspend, just look up that entry in a search engine. This method helped me many times, mostly with amdgpu bugs in the kernel fucking with my system.

Edit:

Absolutely nothing in journalctl, dmesg, etc 😭

Woops, didn’t read that. dmesg only keeps track of everything from the last boot, so unless you used SSH to remote into your laptop while it tried wake from suspend, you wouldn’t see anything anyways. journalctl on its own vomits out a metric fuckton of entries, but it does persist across reboots. If you use my aforementioned options or something like journalctl | grep suspend, it might be easier to find something

At my middle school, we also banned smartphones throughout the whole building. You were meant to either leave yours at home or put it in your locker when you got there. It’s a lot easier to chat with people during the breaks when they’re not face-down in their phone screen.

This is a picture that a friend of mine took on a trip to England. This was probably made by OpenAI’s latest model, because this is also one of many abominable Ghibli images that were probably part of some kind of meme. You can see that the text quality is infinitely better than before. It spells, displays and even puts it all into perspective correctly. However, it seems to only really be able to output a few different fonts, which you can even spot in the post that we’re commenting on. The slop mutates ever closer to slipping past your defenses…

EDIT: Bonus picture, I can never see Ghibli anything anymore without this coming to mind

“Just following orders…”

You should see the commenter that I blocked under mine. Apparently, some people don’t have the technological means to go to PowerPoint Online and Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V some stock images, but they do have the means to prompt slop by mail. Silly me for assuming privilege.

I reckon that it probably began with a lot of the training material being scans of aged paper.

That “”““human””“” skeleton in the fourth item gave it away immediately. Now that I look at it further, “Isolation & Surveillance” and a picture of a megaphone??? “Fear as a tool of control” with a lightning bolt in someone’s head??? Did OP even read their slop before vomiting it here?

Kerbal Space Program 2 as an Early Access game on Steam. Take Two poached developers those that worked on KSP 1 and then laid off the entirety of Intercept Games, the studio that they made for KSP 2. Even though it’s not being worked on anymore, you can still get it on Steam for an eye-watering €50, which was exactly what I paid (before the layoff happened, on day 2 of Early Access). This was after I had great experiences with other Early Access games like ULTRAKILL and Satifactory, so I thought that a company like Take Two wouldn’t fuck the pooch that hard. It’s playable, the graphics are neat, the music is very nice, and they did manage to add the science mode before it all went to shit, but I’m sad that the promised two other solar systems, planet colonization, resource extraction, automation and multiplayer will probably never be added. That is, unless someone else buys up the project and actually finishes it.

‘Conservative’ old dudes with nazi memorabilia usually got it the right way.

How exactly did they get “it” the right way?

Did UK people smoke much more back then? I recently went on vacation to Germany and was appalled at how acceptable it is there. Here in the Netherlands we have a program called “Smoke-free generation”, which forbids smoking in places that children often visit, such as schools and sports fields. From what I heard, the bottom kinda fell out when vaping became popular under teenagers.

Can’t wait for Y2K38!
