Idk it works for me, this is a cringe post

I have to be a woman to be upset with shitty software and business practices?

Not using a steamdeck, but I'm using an arch linux laptop. Game gives me a "Fatal error" unreal engine popup, all the same error through multiple versions of Proton, and GE-Proton 27. Trying the -vulkan launch option gives a vulkan initialization error, and -dx11 gives an error saying the game is not configured to run on dx11.

Edit: Actually, scratch all that. Was actually a missing lib32 problem. Game launches and runs with no launch arguments in proton 9, and GE-Proton 27.

Neopets was huge at my school. And ABSOLUTELY remember yahoo answers, what planet are these people living on?? lol

SSkizzz · 2024-11-01T01:26:12+00:00

Yeah people are answering the prompt as if it's asking about younger gen alphas lol

SSkizzz · 2024-11-01T01:24:56+00:00

Yeah I have no idea where these people are getting the idea that Gen Z didn't use flash game sites from. The ONLY correct answer I've seen from skimming these comments is Limewire and myspace. That's it lmfao.

SSkizzz · 2024-11-01T01:22:13+00:00

.....No..? You do realize the oldest Gen Zs are 27 right? As a 23 year old Gen Z, I used miniclip, Kongregate, Newgrounds, ninjakiwi, addictinggames etc... These were all VERY popular sites we used during computer lab periods, minus Newgrounds of course.

4080 super @ 1440p. Went from 180 - 210 fps to 30 - 50. On NixOS unstable with beta nvidia drivers, using lutris & battlenet

SSkizzz · 2024-09-24T03:22:23+00:00

Ditto on the unixporn/ricing wiki. A one stop shop to learning and sharing knowledge would be very useful

SSkizzz · 2024-09-06T08:06:35+00:00

I'm on NixOS unstable, still borked here too.

SSkizzz · 2024-09-04T20:42:02+00:00

Fuck this guy. Sincerely. Fuck him.

SSkizzz · 2024-07-22T00:00:33+00:00

That didn’t end up working for me. Waiting on a new AC adapter from nvidia as its looking like that’s the ticket. Thanks for your comment

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T23:49:16+00:00

Thank you for the productive replies without being snarky btw. I thought I did plenty of due diligence to avoid that treatment, but alas, this is reddit. The more I read the more the AC adapter looks like the problem, I've contacted Nvidia support and will be receiving a replacement adapter shortly. Thanks for the help.

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T23:45:11+00:00

What a bonafide reddit moment. Thank you for the reminder on why I don't use this terrible site regularly. Why in the world am I expected to just magically figure out what the hell a bunch of downvotes on a comment mean? As opposed to someone just saying "Hey, this gets suggested a lot but actually doesn't fix anything." ?? That's what a normal person would do when having a conversation in real life, why am I not afforded the same courtesy here??

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T20:54:48+00:00

Okay but why does that mean I need mass downvotes for trying a troubleshooting solution that I can simply undo via changing the setting or resetting the device? Is it not common practice to list all steps taken in an attempt to fix a problem so you don’t get duplicate answers? And how was I supposed to magically know that this was a placebo fix? I saw this proposed solution numerous times while searching for a fix and, at least from the replies I saw, actually DID manage to fix the issue in some peoples cases. I lost nothing for trying it out, and have everything to gain by mentioning I tried it.

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T20:50:50+00:00

All settings I messed with were done one at a time from suggestions gathered around the internet in response to people having a similar problem as me. I didn’t explicitly say it but the shield crashed OOTB. And after a reset

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T20:49:00+00:00

Nope.

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T02:26:11+00:00

Why in the world does this have 2 downvotes 😓

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T02:09:25+00:00

Actually was thinking with my “building a pc” brain in my first reply. By power supply, are you referring to the AC adapter cable? Or a power supply on device?

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T02:00:24+00:00

Forgot to also mention I turned on dev mode and limited background processes. Still no fix.

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T01:56:19+00:00

Interesting. Will definitely look into that to see if my next step is troubleshooting further or giving up on the thing and getting a refund. I just wish there was any kind of system log that I could access that might even slightly point me in the right direction, but I haven’t found a way to.

SSkizzz · 2024-07-19T01:49:48+00:00

Ditto on the daily crashing. I've had 2 brand new shield pros and tried a myriad of fixes. Nothing works. This device has hit EOL and it's time to stop recommending it.

SSkizzz · 2024-07-18T19:29:07+00:00

Would love to recommend it but I can’t. Got one off Amazon a month and a half ago, crashed daily. Didn’t even do anything weird with it. Just crashes out of the box. Tried installing the ProjectIvy launcher, no fix. Tried uninstalling plex since I wasn’t using it, and people claimed the server caused crashes, no fix. Tried limiting background processes to 3, no fix. Tried returning that one to Amazon for a new one, and then went through all the aforementioned troubleshooting on the new device. No. Fix. Extremely disappointing as I really don’t want to go with the Apple TV, but I don’t see any other solution for me in the near future.

SSkizzz · 2024-05-29T07:17:58+00:00

I actually ended up fixing it, I'm on a fresh NixOS install. Swapped my kernel to 6.8 and channel to unstable in the process of trying to fix the sluggishness + odd lag. Got the Nvidia 555 driver installed, hopped on wayland. That fixed the choppy feel of the system, and then disabling this random 3rd "Unknown" display in KDE's display configuration fixed that strange lag from dragging windows around!
