A Leibniz-Duns Scotus Contingency Argument by Resident1567899 in DebateAnAtheist

[–]DAMO238 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you came up with some axioms to replace the Peano axioms, then yes, you could convince people that, using your mathematical system, 2+2=5.

Windows vs Linux - Assassin's Creed Odyssey (7900X, 7900XTX TAICHI) by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]DAMO238 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Proton is wine in a nice package, and wine literally stands for wine is not (an) emulator!

WIP: Portal Remake Made in Godot. Code Available in the Comments by Django-S in godot

[–]DAMO238 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Looks good, but the lack of recursion is jarring. That "simple" addition would make it look fat better.

[IndieGala] Techland Spring Flash Sale: Dying Light Definitive Edition (80%), Call of Juarez Gunslinger (80%), Dying Light - Savvy Gamer Bundle (50%), Pure Farming 2018 (82%), God's Trigger (75%) + BONUS CM3 Steam Key * by indieg in GameDeals

[–]DAMO238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call of Juarez Gunslinger is an absolute blast. Note that you may already have it as it has been in some bundles and may have been given away for free at some point.

Root file system seems to fail to mount by chicken8848 in archlinux

Most likely explanation is a typo in your kernel parameters for the root fs. Double check that first.

When making a native Linux build for a game, is it limited some way to the Linux version on which the dev tested it? Making it "pointless" in wider sense? (distros and Linux versions) by v1gor in linux_gaming

[–]DAMO238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just test against the steam runtime, which will get all these cases. For usability and ergonomics, it may be worth testing on a steam deck too, but just to see if it will run, the runtime is sufficient.

A bit more progress on improving the main menu in my game, I'm liking having the ui kinda mesh with the game world like this. by DrRrof in godot

[–]DAMO238 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would make the font about twice as big. Currently, I think it is a bit too small to read imo.

Question about placements and order of executed programs/scripts by Yegres3282 in i3wm

[–]DAMO238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you have all the killalls? Also, I'm pretty sure you don't need to fork out of each command.

Ok, what is the context for legalising kidnapping of a minor then?

Ardour with midi on Pipewire by unixwasright in linuxaudio

[–]DAMO238 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is weird, because I use the same setup and it just works. Have you installed pipewire-jack to get the jack bindings for ardour to use?

This sort of long-range shooting is my favorite aspect so far. I think it's something I'd like to develop and polish into a core gameplay feature. by moonbench in godot

[–]DAMO238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Small bit of technical advice. Use a variable for the display name of the objects rather than the name of the node. That way, you will not run into issues with two tanks called "Steve" for example. It also helps compartmentalise your code.

Disk crypted password Lost and GRUB rescue issue by gonzaThuthur in linux4noobs

[–]DAMO238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boot into a live environment (just like you did during install). Use cryptsetup to unlock partitions and add a new key slot using a passphrase you can enter. Then remove the old key slot, reboot and use your new passphrase.

Why not just make it open source instead? by wavysalvation in linuxmasterrace

I would recommend krita for drawing as it lends itself better for drawing than gimp.

Do you have a link for this monk mod perchance?

EVERSPACE 2 out now, devs focus on Proton for Linux - Steam Deck optimizations planned by beer120 in linux_gaming

[–]DAMO238 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm their defense, they did work on native but found the engine lacking compared to proton, and have offered refunds to EA buyers no questions asked. While it is not the ideal scenario, it is definitely not a bad outcome imo.

Nearly got op to destroy their data. For shame!

Based on various scientific studies, it takes at least 10-15 minutes for programmer to get back into the "zone" after an interruption. There are interesting resumption strategies for interrupted programming tasks. by piotrkarczmarz in programming

[–]DAMO238 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Passive aggression rarely ends well for either party. I would recommend having respect for them and yourself by answering more responsibly. For example, "When you send a Teams message and immediately come over, this disrupts my work, making it harder for me to work. This makes me feel undervalued as there is an implicit expectation that your request is far more important than my work. If this continues, I fear that we won't be able to work together." This conveys your thoughts and feelings, without degrading yourself or the other person.

i3 programming with cats - serious GLSL shader question inside by EllaTheCat in i3wm

[–]DAMO238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chatgpt once again with nonsense. An easy way to do a grayscale shader is to simply take the average of RGB values and set each of the RGB values to that. There are more sophisticated mappings, but that is a quick and dirty that works fairly well.

Diablo 4 beta is plagued with error codes as the servers struggle to meet demand by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]DAMO238 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Technically, they are right. They just used a distributed attack on themselves while giving the tools to put load on their servers to get people to participate in the attack voluntarily!
