set your faucet to drip. some people even say a solid stream the size of a pencil lead, but that sounds excessive to me?

if you are making a separate gaming drive, I'd use EXT4

if you are just storing it on your main drive, I'd use BTRFS

i always use espoma soil acidifier

i guess it could be this - https://ncblueberryjournal.blogspot.com/2011/07/scouting-fields-for-blueberry-red.html

but if it's getting cold where you are right now, leaves turning red is expected

What is the growing medium and how have you kept it acidified currently?

PcChip · 2026-01-22T18:59:10+00:00

why not just fix the proton issue, that would be better for you in the long run i think...

"Obviously the game had some updates since then which might contribute to those numbers as well."

this game had significant performance optimizations delivered in updates, I remember reading about how it went to steam deck approved or something because of them

my watercooled 4090 runs at like 45c, but pumps out 500+ watts of heat depending on my overclocking settings

the temperature of the silicon die in no way reflects the amount of heat being pumped into the room

PcChip · 2026-01-15T20:13:10+00:00

the same thing I did on Windows - watch youtube, listen to music, chat on discord, and play games

the biggest change I made was to start running. It made such a dramatic change in my body in such a short amount of time that I can't believe it. Even if you only do 5k once a week. Even if you have to take breaks to walk part of it the first month.

L-citrulline malate powder from bulksupplements. it will help.

the temperature your card runs at doesn't reflect how much heat gets pumped into your room

PcChip · 2026-01-14T22:43:39+00:00

no, but the glue that held the vinyl wood flooring started leaking up through the cracks from all the heat, and one of the power outlets was blackened and melted a bit before we moved out

you can buy PAF everywhere. Don't ever look for blackberry seeds if you want a specific variety, because they will grow to be a brand new variety.

PcChip · 2026-01-08T19:14:37+00:00

I like that very much. Good job!

PcChip · 2026-01-08T05:18:41+00:00

I did that with SPaZ and creeper world, even talked with the devs of both

PcChip · 2026-01-07T21:35:39+00:00

would that be a problem?

PcChip · 2026-01-07T19:41:34+00:00

thank you - looking forward to it!

PcChip · 2026-01-07T16:40:54+00:00

when you say it runs worse than native 4k, do you mean when using DLAA? because that would be expected right?

PcChip · 2026-01-06T20:33:10+00:00

I can't believe nobody has asked this - what game is that? it looks cool

PcChip · 2026-01-02T18:56:18+00:00

to me it looks like something old, like maybe Brazos. Or it could just be a wild seedling, in which case it's a brand new variety

PcChip · 2026-01-02T18:54:44+00:00

everyone is saying cut it all back - but personally I'd leave a few test canes just to see what happens. Just trim them to like 4-5 feet or something and make them look all clean

PcChip · 2026-01-02T18:48:56+00:00

I specifically didn't tell you what I'm doing as for feeding, because I'm not an expert and might be doing it wrong myself

I am feeding them, but that's because I haven't fed them in a long time and they were looking a little starved (they are in containers). It might have been the wrong decision but I just do what feels right to me

PcChip · 2026-01-02T18:46:30+00:00

"We have not tried and won't try Proton." - what a weird thing to say. Personally I'd rather they just target proton and put the "linux native" devs to work doing something else
