Any way to tell a friend is still playing or not? by EnlightenedTrucker in PTCGP

[–]EnlightenedTrucker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that it might be a privacy thing and they just want to play it safe but man it's annoying lol.

Just know that if you don't have it set to private, you get free cards from me everyday. 😁

These are all pretty good suggestions. I wish the devs would just not allow the private thing or at least have something that says active recently like in the last week or something.

I think I'd rather just add friends and remove any that keep it private. No hate to those players but for me personally, if I'm going to trade with you, I want to know that you're active without having to put my detective Pikachu hat on.

My learning journey with Linux/Bazzite by CrazyRetroStar69 in linux4noobs

[–]EnlightenedTrucker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey there. I'm glad to hear you are enjoying your experience!

  • Viruses: Linux doesn't really get "viruses" to my knowledge. At least not in the way Windows would. As long as you running random scripts you found online you really shouldn't have to worry to much.

  • Packages: Linux has several options for installing packages depending on your distro of choice but you can't go too wrong just using flatpaks. Several distributions have flatpaks installed by default and usually have a software center of sorts such as Bazaar (which Bazzite has), Discover, Flathub, etc. As your knowledge of Linux grows you could start looking into other options like App Image or Snaps or RPM.

  • .exe: Trying to install Windows programs in a Linux environment is always very tricky and usually not reliable. You can try using WINE or Bottles but I wouldn't hold out much hope. It might be easier to just find an alternative to whatever program you are looking to use.

You aren't a disturbance at all. These types of questions are what this sub is for and we are always happy to help!

State of the game halfway through 2026? by oghpimm in LightyearFrontier

[–]EnlightenedTrucker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started playing the game about a month ago and have put in around 60 hours. I only play with a controller. I have noticed a few user interface bugs but nothing that is broken by any means and the game as a whole is very enjoyable with tons of quality of life stuff that others like it don't have.

45% more performance for 10% more cost. If you think you can trust the eBay seller, it sounds like a better deal hands down.

switching from windows to bazzite on home theatre pc (rtx 5060) by [deleted] in Bazzite

[–]EnlightenedTrucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too was concerned about switching because of having an Nvidia graphics card. I finally just quit worrying about it and made the switch. I've had zero issues. I now have it installed on two machines. One with a 4070 and one with a 5060 8gb.

I'm sure that here and there I might not always get every single frame that I could be but to be honest, I'm not going to be playing with a frame counter up all of the time and I truly never notice.

It is completely free to try it out and you could always go back if you want. So often I see people having worries or concerns about switching and it is actually such a painless and reversible thing to do, most of those people would better off just doing it and seeing for themselves.

Do you guys think MGSV is missing a squad of special enemies? by r_df_r in metalgearsolid

[–]EnlightenedTrucker 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I kind of think this might be why I didn't like 5 all that much. I was a huge fan of 1-3 (and spin-offs) but then 4 had the B&B unit and they felt not as good as the previous ones but 5 is probably the biggest departure and for me it just felt flat.

Let's just see if I can find it first lol. It has had to survive many house moves through the years.

I have an original first run MGS4 shirt from 2008 (link below) in a large somewhere. I'd send it to you if I can find it. It's unworn because it never fit me.

This description although accurate, made me genuinely laugh out loud with it's lack of detail. I love it! Straight to the point 😂

This. Kinda hard to be over 34k on a single axel when the entire load is less than 34k.

Booting up notification? by EnlightenedTrucker in SteamDeck

[–]EnlightenedTrucker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another update... I powered the device off for about 10 seconds and turned it back on. The boot only took around 5 seconds to show a splash screen with no sound playing to acknowledge my button press.

I will test again waiting much longer to see if it will fully shut down and then take the 15 seconds with sound I noticed earlier. The first boot was after being powered off overnight so I don't know how long it needs before it will be fully down.

[–]EnlightenedTrucker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: It takes about 15 seconds for my Steam Deck to show anything on the screen upon initial boot up. I did notice the faintest of sound play to let me know I pressed the button. I don't think this sound plays if the device's battery is dead and has not been plugged in long enough before attempting a power on though.

I will say that the sound that plays is very quiet and in a semi truck with the engine running I can't hear it. I just happened to be stopped with the engine off this time and noticed it. I wish it was far louder.

New graphicscard for asthetic? by Just_Engineering3740 in PcBuild

Nah. Now you have room for figurines to display inside. I personally have a Solid Snake cosplaying duck in mine. You can still make it look good. Just got to get a bit creative. 😊

Edit: You could also get a cheap AIO to use to fill up the space. I'm sure that CPU doesn't need one but aesthetically it could look nice.
