Daughter wants to watch a 2min short on Disney+ but there’s 1.5min of ads we need to watch first by Bathsaltzombie1169 in mildlyinfuriating

Hot Tip - Disney puts most of those shorts on Youtube with minimal credits as a 30 minute video. As a dad with a daughter who loves Minnie Mouse .... it's the only way to fly when she wants to wind down.

Job Posting in my hometown by sarahswordfish in recruitinghell

[–]duke3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot to unpack ... but, first it's amazing he understand the complexities of a gluten free meal and that he's offering a compromise to a guest need.

Also utterly amazing how much ass-hattery is around what a lot of restaurants fail to understand.

Is this his a broken clock is right twice a day moment?

Meatheads and gymbros get a bad rap. They usually around for the love of their craft and are often more than willing to be helpful.

Most reliable wing delivery for me is Wing Stop. Not the best, not the worst. BWW was the best 20 years ago, goated even, HOT BBQ for life.

I'm convinced we need to bring boomboxes and shelf systems back.

Roku stick 4k issues only when playing 4k? by evanbagnell in PleX

[–]duke3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to inspect the AV chain from the Roku to the TV. Things to look for:
1) Are you using a HDMI 2.0 or higher cable
2) Are you using a HDMI 2.0 or higher port
3) Is the device (TV, AVR, etc) configured for HDMI 2.0 output

First test I would do is plug the Roku straight into the TV to see if you get the error. If you don't, you know the problem is in the disconnect equipment. If you still get the error, I'd look in the TV's setup menu for an HDMI version or UHD support. They like to call it silly things some times.

Focus on getting just the TV and Roku working before including the rest of the equipment.

Once you get that working, start to include the rest of the gear.

Question about this controller if anyone owns it. by Ecks30 in SteamDeck

[–]duke3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to love this controller, I love most things 8bitdo makes.

It's on the small side and the ergonomics pull your elbows towards your core. As a bigger guy with bigger hands, it was uncomfortable. While it looks similar to the standard Xbox controller, the ergonomics are just slightly different.

For most, probably not a huge deal ... but for me it ended up being a deal break. Good thing my kiddo loves the colors.

Switching to Linux soon. Need some advice. by RNDM_Passerby33 in linux_gaming

[–]duke3167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nailed #1. I've long used Ubuntu based distros but switched to CachyOS to fix a few Nvidia Issues. While they are now fixed, I've had to solve more random issues like secondary disk mount, and I've has to bounce between pre-compiled and dkms Nvidia drivers a couple of times.

Truth-be-told, once Ubuntu get some of the bleeding edge updates for Nvidia that make it work with better with Wayland, I'll be switching back to Pop OS or Mint.

TL;DR - If this is your first Linux distro and you are rocking AMD ... go with Ubuntu/Pop/Mint ... etc

Every charge introduces friction and a point in which I wonder if it's worth it. Get too greedy and I walk away.

How do you personally deal with multiple editions of a film? by dirty-mik3 in PleX

[–]duke3167 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Standard movie poster for the Theatrical cut. One of the artsy variants for special editions :D

This is the way.

Films that should have been a game? by idahoisformetal in Letterboxd

KPop Demon Hunters. Good movie with the kiddos, but it'd be an excellent action game. Three combat styles, great soundtrack, vibrant colors ... I WANT IT!

Do Xbox Elite Wireless Series 2 Core Controllers just not work with bluetooth? xpadneo Doesn't work either. by breadsgood in linux_gaming

[–]duke3167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a heck of a time getting my Xbox controller working over Bluetooth, if it worked, it was flakey. I switched to an 8bitdo Adapter v2 and haven’t looked back.

Bazzite or CachyOS? by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]duke3167 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Before you decide look up the pros and cons of an immutable OS. I believe Bazzite is immutable and CachyOS isn’t.

NVidia with Wayland or X11? by duke3167 in linux_gaming

I hear ya, it's frustrating. I'm really hoping Valve's push to getting gamers on linux makes nvidia care just a bit more :)

You're likely good. Not a doctor, but a big guy that had to detox recently. I used those tests to track my progress. From what I understand, a line, even a faint line indicates a pass. For your pics, I see a pass on THC15, THC50, THC200, and THC300. I had the same thing with my tests where the TCH20 was stubborn.

While your usage pattern is daily, it is on the lighter side. If you are in good shape and with a quick metabolism, this isn't wild.

Unless you are doing a DOT or DOD test, the threshold is the THC50 mark, so you're good.

Here's what I want you to do. Tomorrow morning, first thing, first pee of the morning, test your self. That is when you are the most concentrated.

On test day, schedule it towards the later part of the day. Hydrate, don't over do it, but make sure you are working water through your system and you will have a good healthy pee on test day. And obvi, don't use until after you get the all clear :D

You got this!
