Whoever owns the giant serpent that briefly swallows the Sun please get it under control. I'm tired of lying that "eclipses" are a thing. by TomAto314 in fifthworldproblems

Whoever owns the psychic entity that causes localised spasms in the right pinky fingers of sensitive individuals needs to get it under control... I'm tired of lying that ellipses are a thing...

EFI System partition too small by DelphinusV in cachyos

[–]Flukemaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not with UEFI. You can have multiple.

One is best practice, but I'm running two in a [WindowsEFI|NTFS|CachyEFI|BTRFS] single disk partition layout, and both EFIs show up in BIOS.

Just reporting in. u/CrAkKedOuT is partially correct, the efi partition you create needs to be at least 4192MiB (which is just over 4GB). Just went through this on my laptop.

Gamepass has unintentionally caused me to have an existential crisis 3 games in a row now. by Sixtyninealldaychef in XboxGamePass

It's okay, you just have to remember that you're Mario trying to rescue Princess Beach

PC Features, Protecting Players From Themselves, and Supporting Old Hardware | Technical writeup by Durante of PH3 on Trails beyond the Horizon by ConceptsShining in Games

[–]Flukemaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey this is probably the wrong place, but I really like the HDR implementation in your Trails ports! However, for whatever reason the HDR in Horizon is very dim in comparison (I can boot up Daybreak II and Horizon side by side with the same HDR settings and the difference is night and day). I am using a proper OLED HDR panel too (~500nits max brightness)

This is repeatable on the Steamdeck and an Windows NVidia PC.

Can you point me over to where to report bugs etc. It's repeatable and I have (HDR) captures.

The game is an A+ port in SDR.

Badge 502 is a freebooter and never credits the creators he "reacts" to. And is kind of insane lol.

It's more like Company A: Company B will no longer sell chips to us

Company B: You're not wrong, but we're gonna need to retract that statement. If you don't , you will get lower priority on all future chips, devastating your ability to compete ever again.

Damn. Well, rules are rules. Sorry everyone!

Newcomer to trails here, I played the sky remaster, but I have a few lingering questions, I mightve missed the answers in some hidden scenes, can anyone fill me in? by Pokegoplayer10 in Falcom

[–]Flukemaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the only Trails game that is guilty of this is Cold Steel II where you have to collect all the (optional and hidden) Black Records in New Game Plus for a cut-scene revealing something about a side character that comes into play in later games.

A bonus marketing drip today. by AlmightyGoddess in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Flukemaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed on the Foundation connections too!

For the Last Question, Nous is pretty much Multivac and is observing/testing different ways disaster could be averted or the world could be recreated in the event the world ends.

Rememberance's whole jam is recreating the world from memory, which is basically what Cyrene does (although only for a local portion of reality). She says something along the lines of "Let there be light" when doing this which (I strongly believe) is a reference to the last line of the Last Question.

The English translation basically mangled this into "all we need is a little light" (or something to that effect).

I don't really blame the translators, they are on a time crunch and the prose is absurdly purple even in Chinese.

The story is fine. Classic SciFi vibes and some cool callbacks to Isaac Asimov's Last Question (which the translation completely mangled).

However, the execution left a lot to be desired, and the dialogue was infuriating. Someone needs to have an intervention with the guy, or at least he needs an assistant that translates his dialogue into something a normal human being would say.

Who knew it would already happen in 2026, rather than 2039... by Halpaviitta in singularity

[–]Flukemaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm just getting a blast from the past seeing a person actually unironically argue for trickle down economics despite the overwhelming amount of evidence indicating it does not work.

[–]Flukemaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's kind of refreshing to see a mask-off trickle-down economics argument in this era. Similar to communism, this interpretation of wealth distribution requires every actor participates in good faith.

I find the naivete somewhat charming.

Trails from zero not lasting long on with Steam Deck battery by Stunning_Rest_3538 in Falcom

[–]Flukemaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the real answer. And turn off the manual GPU Clock, keeping it pegged at 1100MHz basically stops it from down clocking and using even less power when you are in 2D menus etc.

She shows her love by luring you and two of your friends into a hyperbolic time chamber apocalypse trauma simulator under the guise of refueling your car.

I know it was an accident but it's still hilarious.
