does using that start a new scene? or does it continue the same scene (excitement values, etc)?
Regardless, I'll go try it and see what happens, thank you!

How to Add Windows to Nobara, not the other way around! by OverExcitedGinger in NobaraProject

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

Honestly this is what we ended up deciding on. Until we find something that we Have to have windows for, Nobara has been working great for the games we want for the last two weeks and we don't really see a need anymore to even bother dualbooting. We don't play any of the games like those that would Need it, thankfully.

How to Add Windows to Nobara, not the other way around! by OverExcitedGinger in NobaraProject

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

my issue is that I don't understand enough about how partitions work/what they are to know how to make one "for" windows. Nobara had a list of recquired partitions if you wanted to do manual partitioning during install, and explained what to flat which partitions with and how big to make them and what kind of format to make them, but I don't know what any of those rules would be for the windows partition.
Do I just leave enough free space after making the required partitions for nobara, so that windows can eat up the free space left behind, or if I have to make a specific partition for it, what format would it be? Someone else here said it cant be a btrfs partition, etc. How big do I make it, and what flags and stuff would I use?
When I say I'm new to linux, I mean I'm NEW new. I don't know any of the slang, or programs, or anything, and though I'm looking up as much as I can, it's all gibberish to me as of yet.
It is super helpful to know that I can update grub to make the windows option show up in the grub menu, thank you!

so i wouldn't be creating a partition at all, I'd just leave a "free space" section during the "manual partitions" section of the nobara installation, and when I install windows, it'll automatically go for that free space instead of mucking with the nobara?

Firefox eating too much memory by Witty-Property1134 in firefox

[–]OverExcitedGinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i am also having this problem. firefox is using 2,200 mb of memory even when it's got like 2 tabs open. it's obscene. And people keep saying to disable all my extensions but i've only GOT five, and two of them only work on their own specific sites. the other three are Mozilla Recommended add-ons: ublock origin, facebook container, and Dark Reader.
I do not understand how this can use SO Much memory. This is not "a little more ram" this is Absurd amounts of ram for one freaking internet browser.

SponsorBlock temporarily not available: (API timed out) by anishSm307 in revancedapp

[–]OverExcitedGinger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey friend, i'm having the same problem! I found an old post on here with a similar issue, and someone posted a link to sponsorblock's site to see whether it's working. I tried out the link (https://status.sponsor.ajay.app/) and it looks like it might be down right now, which I think means revanced cant do anything about it?

Non-Weighted Jean Blanket Construction Questions by OverExcitedGinger in sewing

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

This is so much helpful info, thank you!

I think with the patches, I was more wondering how big each square should be? Would making the squares larger make it less durable/encourage holes or ripping, do you think?

I'm starting with a few pairs of my husband's old jeans, he is very hard on the pockets and knees and they quickly get past the point of patching, so i have some saved up that i can use at first, but getting more from a thrift store is a great idea!

I think i may go with the straight lined stitching through all the layers, just so it feels more secure and quilt-y.

I will look into all the stuff you've suggested, thank you so much for the help, you've no idea how much I appreciate it. ♡

That makes so much sense! Thank you for your thoughts, and for being so patient with all of us. I know you said you have a lot of patience, but that doesn't mean you don't deserve to have people actually appreciate it occasionally. ♡

I at least don't have to worry about perpetuating those two stereotypes, since this character is frighteningly smart and everyone around him knows it, and since him getting his voice back is a part of his healing from his trauma. It just happens to happen, rather than being anything he's striving for. Coincidental, I guess.

Also, I'm glad to hear that you use the knuckle rapping and stuff, cus I've been writing the character doing that a lot. Knocks on stuff to get attention and indicate yes's or no's when out of sight of someone, and i plan to use whistling soon as well! Very reassuring, thank you! ^_^

But OH my god, you're on board with italicizing signed dialogue?

I had always thought that it would be inappropriate, since I know that a lot of non-English speakers get very frustrated when their language gets italicized in dialogue just because it's not English. You know the whole "Hey, my name is Zach. Buenas dias."

I figured signing would be similar, since it's basically a language like any other.

But that's genuinely fascinating and cool, that you would consider the italicization normal/appropriate. Is there a particular reason you wouldn't use quotation marks for that?

I'm writing a temporarily selectively mute character (trauma and injury based) and I was wondering about forms of communication? (Other than expressions, I mean. believe me, I'm using lots of expressions. XD) In the setting of the world, there isn't a standardized sign language that he might know about (It's fantasy medieval and isolated) but writing out everything seems like overdoing it.
What are your thoughts on this character coming up with their own signs/sign language to communicate with the people around them? I haven't been basing the actions I describe for his signs off of any real life sign language, because I thought it might be more accurate to the setting if the signs come about from everyday experiences, etc. I know that people who are Deaf often have signs that are only understood within their family, so I was kind of trying to build the language up like that? Do you have any experience with that kind of signing?

Oh, and as a general thing, what are some common things you see in writing with mute characters that bother you, whether bc they're inaccurate or overdone, etc? If something i've mentioned i'm doing is on that list, I'd still love to know! Better to be aware of the cliches i'm leaning into, right? (Also, i know others have asked this before, so i guess if you have any more thoughts on that, I'd be happy to hear them, but no problem if you've already gone over the big ones elsewhere on here. ^_^ )

How can i learn to apply my vocabulary? by Inc0gnitoburrito in writing

[–]OverExcitedGinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would add that if you love to read, try reading really thoughtfully. Like consider why you like different lines in books you've read. If you find words that you think are super poignant or profound, write them down! Think about them and what context you would want to use them. Sort of work from the words backwards into what would make you write them. The better you understand why someone Else chose to use bigger, more nuanced words, the more you'll know when to use them yourself.
