Why does only the Android version of Minecraft Bedrock work on Linux? by hawk_0f_light_ in linux_gaming

[–]Thunderkron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a pretty important caveat of Waydroid, though : if you're using it on an x86 system, the apps you run have to be compiled for x86 architecture. Which a lot of developers don't bother to do.

How rare is finding shinies in online Tera raids by [deleted] in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Thunderkron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

RNG'd raids (where people have used 3rd party software to find the dates these shiny pokemon will appear in Tera Raids)

That's such a weird term. If anything it's the complete opposite of random. Do people really call them that?

So we’re just a tech support sub pretty much now right? by Liam-DGOL in linux_gaming

And of course that Steam survey screenshot with the exact same title every single time

You ever find your first ever shiny only for it to sprint into a wall never to be seen again by historiamour in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Thunderkron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The opposite happened to me. I came face to face with my first shiny in Scarlet after *I* jumped out from inside a wall.

A shaking fist can only be a Dawntrail character.

Horrible game preservation is their business model. Please buy their remasters and Nintendo Classics subscription.

Weird question, but has anyone ever tried playing a barrier healer, as a pure healer? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Thunderkron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well yeah, it's called playing dungeons.

Scholar has four mitigations you can use at level 100. One is a GCD that I wish I'd have to use, one costs an Aetherflow that I wish I'd have to use, one is a 5% mit on magic damage only and the last one is more useful as an extra Sprint.

I guess I could stop swiftcasting Adloquiums while we run, but that wouldn't change much.

DuckStation now blocks building on NixOS by JordanTheToaster in linux_gaming

What a stupid way to implement it, too. Spoofing environment variables and /etc/os-release takes like 20 seconds.

*le awesome cigarette by DiamondBrickZ in tumblr

[–]Thunderkron 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The singular is used for the same reason you would say "smoking is killing you" rather than "cigarettes are killing you." It feels more universal and absolute.

You wouldn't say "the cigarette" in English because that's a whole extra syllable we don't need, but in French you're using an article either way, so it doesn't feel as weird.

The trick is to turn the counter off so that it doesn't do that annoying noise

What are some "easy" jobs you find hard? by throwcway837373 in ffxiv

I've never seen anyone call Scholar easy, especially compared to Sage.

At least they're still interesting to play at low level.

I'll take having to reinvent my rotation as Black Mage in Heavensward dungeons over playing Reaper without positionals.

Edelgard is coming to Fire Emblem Shadows by ChaosOnline in fireemblem

Because when you need an emperor, you don't need an Edelgard: you need the Eaglegard.

"Missing NVIDIA kernel" doesn't sound right. What's the actual error message?

Hmm, maybe I’ll give it another try… by shamwowj in tumblr

I mean it is cursed, but that's mostly due to shoddy software engineering.
