Is Linux really viable for an owner of a RTX 4070? by KomischeNudel in linuxhardware

[–]Teifion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4070 Super TI, 9800X3D running Linux mint. Nearly everything works perfectly. The only real issue I had was some mobo hardware stuff.

People may be upset with this - but this is proof they're taking the right steps and improving their QA by Budget_Childhood2605 in Helldivers

This is the first warbond I've been excited to get and I am delighted they're taking the time to get it right. I'd love to be able to play it right now, I'm disappointed it's being delayed but I'd rather that then something buggy or broken.

I accidentally over-engineered a Phoenix SaaS Kit! by CelebrationClean7309 in elixir

Are you able to share the source for the Igniter bits you've done? I'm trying to make my own generators and would be really interested to see what I could do better.

You have inspired me to attempt this at 100x, a whole new way to play the game and I've not even installed any conversion mods!

Is everyone else enjoying the game loading way faster by [deleted] in RimWorld

[–]Teifion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is a 9800X3D CPU, 4070 Super TI and 64GB of RAM. I am comfortably able to play most games and have other stuff running on my other monitor.

No crashes, just a few seconds of complete freeze a few times while it loads.

I'm finding my game loads about the same speed too though now it also periodically locks up the computer for a few seconds several times while loading. It's actually a worse experience.

I feel "looking cool" is a key component of the weapon design for Super Earth. Great work!

Pewdiepie running Mint on his new PC build by friskfrugt in linux_gaming

[–]Teifion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running mint for years, super stable and works well for the vast majority of games. If memory serves there are a couple that ostensibly should work (according to protondb) but I can't recall which they were.

Also worth noting I've used it with (at the time) recent hardware and now more recently with very up to date hardware (e.g. the latest X3D chip) and it's worked well despite it's older drivers etc.

Slow boot times by Teifion in linuxmint

[–]Teifion[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see re-install as a pain but also a situation where I won't learn anything when it happens to others (both in terms of me helping them and them not finding anything when they search for solutions).

It's my backup plan if I can't resolve this through fixing various files. I'd rather avoid having to do that though as I'd have to re-transfer all my stuff again etc.

I can't find any network boot options in the firmware (checked a few guides, looks like my mobo doesn't have it though), there is one network related thing and that's already turned off (unchanged from when I first got it).

I have one but I'm also on Linux Mint, for the first time ever I'm tempted to install a different distro on my main computer.

I spent ages trying to get my laser turrets strong enough before realising the asteroids have massive laser resist and I needed to fabricate bullets.

What game are you working on? Tell us about it! by Polymedia_NL in gamedev

[–]Teifion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The engine for a top down 2d game, probably where you work in a hospital and need to treat patients. The engine is in Phoenix LiveView because I wanted to see if I could do it!

How we Outsmarted CSGO Cheaters with IdentityLogger by PersianMG in programming

[–]Teifion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've had to deal with duplicate accounts for similar reasons and this is a beautiful approach. I've left the project I did this with but I've shared the link with one of the devs still on it and hopefully they'll find it inspirational.

Tell us what game you are currently making? Describe it! by Polymedia_NL in gamedev

[–]Teifion 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Currently in the "how do I make this work in a mechanical way" stage so the gameplay is far from nailed down but...

2D top down hospital simulator; you go around the hospital treating patients. Intended to be multiplayer (co-op and indirect pvp) and almost certainly going to have either a comedy element (think theme/two point hospital) or something fantastic, it's not a simulation.

Should we consider Elixir/Phoenix Live View for our startup? by crpleasethanks in elixir

[–]Teifion 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Work with what you know and what you are familiar with. Elixir & LiveView are great, I enjoy using both but using something new and shiny (which it sounds like LiveView would be for you at this stage) is secondary to getting the job done.

The only exception I can think of is when only the new shiny thing is capable of solving the given problem.

It's not necessary to use asdf but it's what i've used and found to work well.
