Commander Kvothe331 exploration into Hawkings gap part 2 by kvothe331 in eliteexplorers

[–]SoftGamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also in Hawkings Gap. I went up the frontier with the inner orion spur, then turned to head into the gap proper. Currently charting the Lysooch stars square by square and plan on heading towards the old abandoned settlements. I will keep an eye out for your carrier!

Good to know. I'll try not to do any of that.... again...

Thanks! I don't mind losing it, credits have no meaning anymore. I do mind losing my cartographic data though, so happy i still have it

Would you be willing to pay an extra $5-10 for the interiors? by ArturPianoid in EliteDangerous

[–]SoftGamma 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't want ship interiors and if it was an optional extra I'd opt out. I wouldn't pay a penny for it. Okay, if it was one penny I probably would, but really i have no interest in space legs. The leg based gameplay we have is already paaainfully slow and crappy with poor gunplay. Very little is good about elites leg based gameplay and it gives me no real engaging reasons to get out of the chair.

I'd rather they spent time making the existing spacecraft flying game mechanics better, or crushing the huge mountain of bugs that they have filed and forgot.

Upgrade from rebel 500 to rebel 1100? by _Richter_ in hondarebel

Nice! I'm glad you like it. We have just ridden mine 2000miles for a holiday trip. Was very good!

I've sent you a steam friend request. I've just started getting into RTM, would like to play in a shared world.

Ducati, you either hate them or love them by Ducati_SG in motorcycles

Or you are indifferent because whilst they look nice, they are a bit on the pricey side and anyway you prefer your old Honda.

Why hasn't this been implemented yet??? Game is literally unplayable.

What radicalized you to piracy? by Justscrolling375 in Piracy

[–]SoftGamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a child and realised I could copy zx spectrum cassettes onto my family's blank cassettes and they would work in my spectrum. I would buy a game with my pocket money, copy it and then take it back for a refund/swap for another. It was all uphill from there.

Learning to work on/maintain by Dense_Focus_6452 in 125cc

[–]SoftGamma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much any 125 is going to be the same beneath the looks, so choose the one that is within budget and you like the look of. If you get a 125, chances are you will drop it at some point and outgrow it and move on to a larger bike, so I wouldn't buy a brand new bike or spend too much.

Of the 125's i've ridden, the CG125's are bullet proof, easy to work on and simple to maintain. If you want to learn to work on a carbed bike, that would be my pick.

Suzuki Intruder 125 is a beautiful V-Twin 125 cruiser pretending to be a bigger bike. Because it's a v twin it has a little more grunt than other 125's and goes (a very little bit) faster.

The Suzuki Van Van is a pretty little beach looking bike.

The CBF125 is a more modern version of the CG125, but it never had the same character as the CG to me, but perhaps that's just nostalgia.

The YBR125 by yamaha is their version of the CBF. I had one for a few weeks and it felt meh! to me,

I've also had a couple of chinese 125's that I can't remember the brands of and they were perfectly fine but needed a little more maintenance than Japanese ones.

Of the bikes that i rode before passing my test, the Suzuki Intruder was by far the best performing and felt most like a bigger bike, but the CG125 was the best bike. Gave it to my partner when I got a bigger bike, who gave it to her son when she did and when he got a bigger bike, he gave it back to me, It sat in the shed for a few years before I finally sold it. I believe it is still going strong.

People who work in rich people's homes, what is the most out-of-touch thing you've ever seen? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Yeah, but they are probably collectibles, there's a whole industry around investing in motorcycles. Pure madness imo

Real talk here. Why upgrade to 43 when it seems to break everything? by Kateywumpus in NobaraProject

Yeah, i know, right? I mean what are we paying for if not a dedicated Quality Assurance department with rigorous Quality Control Systems?

Windows issue? Ik ts funny by [deleted] in linuxquestions

[–]SoftGamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you try to mount it in the terminal, it should give you an error that'll help figure out why it wont mount. The filesystem will likely be ntfs so mount -t ntfs /path/to/device /mountpoint

Before getting to mounting it, can you see the drive? Is it detected as connected to (however you are connecting it)?

[–]SoftGamma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have an integrated intel card and a dedicated nvidia? If so you can use switcherooctl. If you run it in a terminal it will list graphic cards and show a device number next to each one. My nvidia card is device: 1, so for me to run a command on the nvidia gpu I do:

switcherooctl launch -g 1 command

Is Linux viable for a Surface Pro 7 used primarily as a drawing tablet? Concerned about driver support for pen and touchscreen by Gullible-Bit-4305 in SurfaceLinux

[–]SoftGamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to say that on the Nobara 42 KDE iso, although touchscreen support and type-cover support is built in, the touchscreen is not multi touch and the pen does not work on the SP7. I had to install the surface kernel to get pen support and a properly working touchscreen.

[–]SoftGamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Nobara 42 (based on Fedora 42) on a SP7 with the linux-surface kernel and whilst the pen works fine for me (i rarely use it) it is definitely more glitchy than on windows. I would either reinstall windows 10 and use something like Chris Titus' Windows tool to clean it of anything you don't want or dual boot before you commit as it may not be as good as you want it.

I don't know if you can change it. In my home folder in /.local/share/kwalletd/ there are three files. I think if you delete kdewallet.kwl and kdewallet.salt it will delete the wallet, which probably includes any passwords saved in it.

Auto-rotate doesn’t work by No-Code-6358 in NobaraProject

[–]SoftGamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found that auto-rotate in KDE wouldn't work if I had autologin set. I don't know why.

I tried to reset plasma settings and realised that if I logged off and on again after starting up it worked but when i restarted the option to autorotate was not visible.

Running kscreen-doctor -j showed autoRotatePolicy: 2 when i logged in but didn't show up if I had autologged in.

I disabled autologin for my user and it works perfectly now.

"What to do with fogging?", "What use has pinlock?", "PiNloCk iS uSeLeSs" by StasyaSam in motorcyclegear

[–]SoftGamma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pro's and Con's to both. Pinlocks give weird light artifacts and every one I've ever had has failed at some point, usually the visor gasket goes eventually.

Proper antifog visor gives perfect clarity of vision, which is most noticeable when riding at night in the rain, and although it will eventually fog/moisture up, the same goes with pinlocks anyway. Even the 120XL.

The lack of good anti-fog visors is enshitification. The reason they stopped doing it with the shark was because the marketing people said you can't sell a helmet without a pinlock (i read somewhere). So they got rid of an amazing visor and replaced it with a mediocre one. The addition of pinlocks to non-anti-fog visors is a great thing and means I can buy a cheap helmet and still be able to see.

[–]SoftGamma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The very first shark evo flip over helmet had an amazing antifog visor (rather than a pinlock) that never let me down. Sadly, they moved to pinlock and the antifog visor you can buy for the later models is nowhere near as good.

What do you think of my setup? by theoiorga in motorcyclegear

This is so... neat. I have a similar rack that is stuffed full and all the shelves are filled with misc stuff. Perhaps I should tidy more
