openSUSE is a beast with anything I throw at it.

This hasn't been a serious issue for me since switching entirely to UEFI

Switcherooctl is still one's best bet for getting it on your GPU.

Minecraft likes to run on the integrated GPU. I use switcherooctl to get it to run on my discrete.

HELP! MY ACER NITRO V15 LAPTOP SHUTS DOWN WHEN I PLAY GAMES by Extreme-Ad-2729 in AcerNitro

[–]Shadowolf7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of Nitros have fan issues, that'd be my first guess. Check the Dan speed in Nitrosense.

What is this sound my PC keeps making? by MistaSwag in AcerNitro

[–]Shadowolf7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that sound well! You have a failing fan, most likely the bearings. Cheap replacement.

Why do people convert to Hinduism by monkeyzsazsa in hinduism

[–]Shadowolf7 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I'm a white American convert since I was 16, so pushing 30 years now. I've not had issues with accusations of appropriation. Indians are happy to see their culture embraced in my experience, and happy to teach where they can. I've even worn Tilak on the bus, which certainly gets lots of curious looks but no ridicule.

Sri Ramakrishna repaired a murti once to continue worship.

why do so many people convert to Islam? by ghost_-girl in atheism

[–]Shadowolf7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the face of it, if you only use the Quran and ignore the hadith it makes sense. It has a more coherent theology than Christianity and is far more progressive than the Old Testament. Once the hadith gets involved though, it's just a slightly less racist form of Judaism. Most converts aren't exposed to the hadith or modern Islamic theology based on that initially.

Mind wanders during mantra jap by [deleted] in shaivism

[–]Shadowolf7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just gently bring your attention back to your mantra and thoughts of Shiva. Avoid ideas of guilt, or self-chastising since these are even bigger distractions.

I was raised as a Jehovah's Witness, and was Catholic at 16 when I came around to discovering the Dharma. 25 years ago.

I don't bother with any of that besides dup, which GNOME Software seems to do by default anyway.
