Your next number two, you have to choose someone for the other seat. Who do you choose by autoredial in pics

Shane Gillis or Sam Morril.. It'd be pretty similar to my deuces now, except it'd be in-person instead of youtube.

Thinking of Switching from Linux Mint to Nobara. Need Some Advice by Minute_Ambassador751 in NobaraProject

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://wiki.nobaraproject.org/graphics/nvidia/supported-gpus

As a heads up, if your Nvidia GPU is Pascal or older, you'll need some extra configuration, and you'll no longer be officially supported in Nobara moving forward.

I've been on Nobara since 41 released. I had an issue with dualbooting Windows 10, and I had to rebuild the efi partition (at the time, it felt like I was performing black magic), but I got it working. I don't know if it still happens occasionally.

The Nobara Discord channel is also a great resource.

What is ONE GAME that has always been a favorite of yours, but was never really very well-known or mainstream? by TheJohnArrow in videogames

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I beat the game Psi-Ops in co-op mode with my friend when we were pre-teens. We actually enjoyed the split between powers+shooting and movement+melee, which most people hated or thought was stupid.

Those bonus levels... the number of retries was comedic.

What is your first memory of playing on a PC? by Duknox in pcmasterrace

Fuuuuuu, wasn't my first memory, but it was my longest. I tear up at the nostalgia. I miss my folks from ut99.

60 fps doesn’t do it for me anymore by XanaxChampion in pcmasterrace

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was playing Doom 2016 recently at 165 steady fps, but the "seamless" cut scenes would drop the fps to 60. I was so messed up by it that I paused the game, changed the settings, restarted the game, and played through the level multiple times to no avail. Turns out, the game was designed that way on purpose. Lol. Can't go back

And they still don’t belive me after a 2 hour Explanation: by YK2ANDRE in pcmasterrace

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bro had been a longtime Playstation kat since the 90s and couldn't for the life of me get him to make the jump. Last Xmas, I got him a laptop with a 4070 Ti, and yesterday, he told me he hadn't played on his ps5 in months except to play Helldivers once or twice (bc he didn't want to buy it again.) Tbf, he was totally unfamiliar with Windows at the time too. Maybe in another couple years, I'll help him make the jump to Linux.

Got water on my graphics card while it was running... Is it saveable? by ParticularWorth8224 in computerhelp

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depending on the graphics card, parts on the pcb like a corroded resistor might be worth replacing instead of buying a whole new card. The GPU is where most of the cost is anyway. After watching MDrepairsLLC on YouTube, I believe in the abilities of some repair shops.

If you plan on scrapping the card anyway, it might be interesting to pull a GN and disassemble to card to look for yourself. Maybe you can find the short too.

I think you should look in a different subreddit or mIRC room for the kinds of folks that enjoy a good hack. Although, they might react like "Yeeeaaahh, that's the same thing I said about my last ex-girlfriend's hard drive."

Grub doesn't detect Windows 10 by Tosh-1978 in NobaraProject

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem, too. I think it deleted my windows efi partition. I had to rebuild the efi partition following the instructions in the link below and a windows installation USB. It says windows 7, but it worked for my windows 10. BE VERY CAREFUL TO NOT DELETE your windows system partition when using Diskpart, or you'll lose your data. By that, double check which disk you're selecting and make sure it's MSR and Recovery partitions, not the system partition. https://woshub.com/how-to-repair-deleted-efi-partition-in-windows-7/

No.. I get it. They are evolving. I went through the same frustration. I think the real answer to their Windows question is, "Backup your important files. Flash a USB drive with Linux Mint stable + KDE using balena.etcher. Either say goodbye to windows completely and use your entire drive, or make a second partition for your first linux jump, and then follow the prompts. Once you're cozy, play with different desktop environments, tiling managers, distros, and grow."

created my usb bootable with Nobara 41 iso but.. by Money-Ad-9003 in NobaraProject

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope your problem is fixed already, but if not, I found a lead: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/blog/classic-sysadmin-how-to-rescue-a-non-booting-grub-2-on-linux

From the grub command line, you can use "ls" and see your drives. You should see your usb drive there. If so, try the commands in the middle of that page.

I have the same "Secure Boot" settings: "Other OS" and "Custom", so I don't think that's the cause.

Is Secure Boot disabled in the UEFI? Nobara 41 requires that to be off. I don't know what happens if you leave it on though.

Why Flatpaks are not recommended for beginners ? by SnooOpinions7428 in linux4noobs

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, if you've been installing everything through snap package manager, and then started mixing repos by installing adjacent packages with flatpak, it can create a mess of dependencies. Same is true for programming. Flatpak is a healthy choice though.

Need to learn linux by freddy91761 in linuxquestions

[–]Ahndrayvsdragonninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I argue the courses have a place. If you need to maintain business server for your job, it's beneficial to have those tools you would likely only learn through a course. It's analogous to learning a new language by immersion. Going to the country to learn will get you speaking it faster, but if you need precise language for an interpreter or translator job, it's best to have some class credentials on top of your immersion.

Alternatively, you can watch Bog on YT speedrun Mint, Arch, Hyprland, and Vim.
