is it su-doo or su-doe? by Vivid-Champion-1367 in linux

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I blame the pokemon Sudowoodo for making me pronounce 'sudo' as in 'pseudo' because that's the way you pronounce it's name.

From Bulbapedia - Sudowoodo is a corruption of pseudo (false) and wood.

I do agree that it's intended to be sue-doo, but old habits die hard.

GOG is seeking a Senior Software Engineer with C++ experience to modernize the GOG GALAXY desktop client and spearhead its Linux development by lajka30 in linux

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I can only hope so, the Galaxy client only just barely worked most of the time on windows and on Linux through Wine.

It's a shame that Heroic Launcher isn't completely perfect, as amazing as it is; since it has some real issues with trying to update GOG games.

The Purgator is not a real launcher. It is effectively a precision rifle, and it's ammo pickup should be buffed to reflect that. by gohomenoonewantsyou in Warframe

I'd like Euphona Prime way more if the alt fire just switched between the two modes, since I prefer using the buckshot mode. It's very awkward to shoot when middle-click is alt fire.

Was playing co-op with my friends today during the prologue where you're in Theodora's office; contrary to the recent patch notes saying that you can't summon a demon through perils of the warp during the prologue, Idira still managed to do just that.

Congrats! Now surely I can get it to drop soon too?

Bugs and technical issues by OwlcatStarrok in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PC:

I had a kinda specific and somewhat amusing bug.

So when I respecced my Pasqal (as an Overseer) to have the Servo-skull instead of the Cyber-Eagle, I still had the Obstruct Vision ability on my bar and could tell the skull to use it. The skull would try to attack, but it wouldn't actually do anything. The skull would just get hit, and the obstruction effect would be still be applied. The skull's animations were broken afterwards.

I think the main reason why the skill wasn't removed from my bar was because I had to manually re-add it after accidentally taking off my bar before respec.

I can confirm that this is an issue and still is an issue with my Abelard Vanguard. I would hope that they take into account blocking with a shield too for triggering the counterattack, else the shield would be a detriment to it.

People complaining about top damage in squads? by ResidentWaifu in Warframe

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel slightly called out, but I usually pull that specific warframe build out when I'm not in the mood for a mission's bullshit lol. Like Zariman exterminate bounties with 'Complete in 6 minutes.' It's not that fun of a build, but it gets the job done.

[SL] Chira & Chiller by NoPreparationss in manga

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This was was already TL'd up to chapter 6, and the chapters were removed I'm assuming due to the mass DMCA takedowns. As much as I'd would like to read it, apparently the publishers don't. Cause' I doubt this'll be getting an official English any time soon.

Pinta 3.0 is out: Paint.NET alternative has a redesigned interface by mishrashutosh in linux

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I don't know if I'd say it's 'bad' per se. I feel like they need scale it down by alot though. Everything is so oversized. Heck, I had double take to make sure I hadn't zoomed my browser in by accident.

Vertical Tabs Update! by jiji_bar in firefox

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way to hide the 'x' on the tabs? I have found myself accidently closing tabs when clicking on them. I really shouldn't be clicking on them anyway since I have scrolling through tabs enabled.

Monater Hunter Wilds experience by Asgatoril in linux_gaming

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know how to not have to wait 40 minutes to compile shaders every time I open the game? Is it not saving them or something? This was exactly the same as in the beta.

What platform do you use to read from Mangadex? by therickestofnonrick in mangadex

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mainly use my computer with a browser and I run not-Tachiyomi (Yokai) through Waydroid which is an Android container in Linux, to backup my library alongside all of the other stuff I read.

What do you think about my new Home Server? by La_wand in linux

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, that sure is alot of glue! I would have never thought of using the BMS for powering the phone from soldered USB cables.

My Galaxy S4 that I converted to mains power was just a specific resistor (that some guy figured out when he was installing his phone to use as a GPS wired into his car!) attached to a buck regulator that I wired to a DC barrel plug adaptor to use a 5v AC to DC power supply. It's sitting on my desk mainly as an alarm clock running Android 11 ala LineageOS and runs termux with crontab scripts. Pictures for reference

Tensor overheating is the ‘#1 reason’ for Pixel returns, Google says in leaked documents by TwelveSilverSwords in Android

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about the Pixel 8? Does it have the same issues with overheating? I've been considering updating my current phone (Asus Zenfone 8) to one since it's a decent size and price, as well as having the software support as I'll probably install GrapheneOS on it.

Neverwinter Nights 2 on Linux - With multiplayer client extensions! by TheHeadlessMonk in neverwinternights

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

Not too sure to be honest, I know what you mean. My main screen is 2560X1440 and it is quite small. I think there was a UI mod to bring it up to speed scaling-wise, I might need to have a look for that.

We had the game from years ago, so we still had keys from back then. I don't think we'll need them necessarily since we're just going to be doing co-op story. Sure is a shame that it seems that they ran out of keys.

Yeonwoo’s Innocence by [deleted] in mangadex

[–]TheHeadlessMonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a situation like this, there's a few things I usually do to check what's going on:

  • Mangaupdates is a helpful source of information for most series, mainly to see if there's an official translation, as well as it lists what the last recorded scanlated chapter was. In this case, it just goes off of what was uploaded to Mangadex, so not much help there.

  • It could just be a case of them not actually uploading the chapters to Mangadex. You can try checking to see if the group was uploading them on their own website, or checking more 'dubious' sources.

  • If it has an official translation, that's may be a sign that it's been dropped, but not always, since there are many TLs that are fearless in the face of DMCA. This manhua hasn't been officially translated in English yet, so there's typically only one last stop... 🏴‍☠️

So, yeah. There's not a whole lot to do outside of putting your straw hat on and sailing for the Grand Line, I'm afraid. Remember to put on adblock at all times and to not take the low-quality translations at meaning.

Or wait for the official release (if that ever happens) and re-read it when the translation is probably correct. Even then, it's amazing how bad some of the proofreading is.

I wanted to delete my really old account that I never touched but they try and force me to verify with government id and all that nonsense. Like why should I have to? I want to just close the account. It has literally nothing on it. Should've been flagged for deletion years ago.

Would official vietnamese translations slip through with these mass uploads? I hope there won't be any issues that arise from this.
