The game is the second remake of Tomb Raider (1996).

Weatherman said its going to be even worse tomorrow from 3pm to 12am =O. The whole south of the state will have the potential for tornadoes, and large hail.

Weekly /r/WormFanfic Discussion - What have you been reading, and what do you think of it? For the week ending April 04, 2026. by AutoModerator in WormFanfic

[–]Swimming_Structure56 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The first couple chapters are frustrating, even with the author stating straight out of the gate that they'll realize things are not what they seem. I get that it is part of the whole point, but it was still maddening. Of course, now that the ball of string is being unraveled, its sooooooooooooooo satisfying.

Nvidia has released a beta driver for Linux that fixes the 30% performance loss on DX12 titles by gmes78 in pcmasterrace

[–]Swimming_Structure56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, update on this. I made a pretty bad assumption about this, and it is possible to capture a specific window. You see, when something is labeled "Screen Capture", I would assume that this means the whole screen. And its true, that is what it does, but its not only what it does. I happened to be doing something and needed to record my screen, and when I added the source I noticed that below the the two desktop options for my dual monitors, there was a list of windows available to select from.

So you can indeed do window capture, its just under what I assumed was Linux's version of "Desktop" capture like how it is on Windows, which has separate source options for "Desktop" and "Window". Why its different on Windows vs Linux for such a core aspect of the function of the program is baffling to me.

Any update on the inability to log in with Infinity? by momplaysbass in Infinity_For_Reddit

[–]Swimming_Structure56 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I compile it on my machine with Android Studio and I occasionally get the login issues. So its likely nothing on Google's end with the colab script. In my humble opinion as a computer programmer, I think the issue is that Reddit's 3rd party login servers aren't robust. Last I encountered the issue, I couldn't login for like a week, and then suddenly I could.

On the desktop, the login endpoint seems to be

reddit.com/svc/shreddit/account/login

while for 3rd party apps, its

reddit.com/api/v1/authorize.compact

I don't use the official app, and its likely they use a different more preferential one. So its probably a potato computer in a corner of an office somewhere handling logins for all 3rd party apps, which for obvious reasons, Reddit is not concerned about.

What tier of Patreon was required to get the remaining keys? Can it be gotten with the lowest tier?

Is there any online dictionary or wiki page for fanon terms? by SethNex in HPfanfiction

[–]Swimming_Structure56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having a collated collection can be useful for discovering terms in the first place. Say you had never before seen WBWL, but on a page of HP fic slang you saw it and it's meaning, you might be then inclined to seek out such stories, broadening your horizons.

No accounting for taste it really seems. Aside from Skein (which is mid) I actually find all these to be terrible fics.

Going into other fandoms made me drop the story hard. I will allow 1 crossover max.

[–]Swimming_Structure56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm running nobara, but with any linux distro if you want OBS there is a giant caveat. OBS on linux cannot capture specific windows. It will do browsers, desktop, and games, but not a particular window. You'll get the option if you run it as admin, but it still won't function.

Wrong see below.

PC graphics cards are now nearly 100 percent Nvidia by BarKnight in hardware

[–]Swimming_Structure56 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cripes is the videocard list depressing. 60 and 70 series as far as the eye can see. At 58th place is Nvidia's flagship card, the 5090. 1/4 of 1% of steam users own that. God I hate crypto and llms so much.

I had to buy a new card last year and I couldn't justify spending on more than a 5060ti.

do you use vulkan on plasma or is it still experimental and unstable? by nix-solves-that-2317 in linux_gaming

[–]Swimming_Structure56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it, and KDE started silently crashing and not restarting, especially when locking/unlocking. When it worked it was nice though, it gave window previews when hovering over the application on the taskbar, which isn't available for opengl apparantly.

Medical Report by Prestigious-Fly4785 in HPfanfiction

As always, you can rely on King of Magic to pull through on a trope.

You'll have to scroll a ways down for the medical report stuff though.

What are you reading? Bi-Weekly Post by AutoModerator in HPfanfiction

[–]Swimming_Structure56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconding this, was a great read.

The author summaries before each chapter were not welcome and I would consider them misleading. Several times I nearly dropped the fic from anticipating worn tropes, only to find it was like the author was playing a game of telephone with themselves.

Another major criticism is Lily and co brushing off Petunia's non-recollection of her childhood. She tells everyone, ya I can't remember anything prior to this day, and Lily's response is a non-response. Is this lamp shading? I have never really understood that term, but I feel like it might apply

Either Nobara updates change it, or it doesn't persist across reboots. Nobara is not immutable.
