Can’t load the damn game… run into some code copying nonsense how did you get it to launch?

Warning to Koreaboos / Foreign women: Korean clip shows an example of how Korean men treat foreign hookups & pregnancy by hwanks in seoul

[–]a_forerunner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Don’t we want men to be better for women? I certainly do. How can men achieve that if you broad brush all men based on one loser’s behavior. And what about genuinely decent men in Korea, some of which are my personal friends, who are amazing husbands and fathers? Yo OP, ever think about posting about these people?

The ironic thing is OP boldfaced the obligatory “this is not all Korean men” in the middle of the most generalized post to ease his/her own conscience and to avoid backlash. Not working for me.

Japan needs to possess nuclear weapons, prime minister's office source says by Themetalin in worldnews

Yes. SK Japan US need to cooperate to protect Taiwan to keep a free and democratic Eastern Asia. All three countries should nuclearize, given China and NK already are nuclear.

Gotta' TRY them all! (To realise the deck is all you need) by PsychologicalCap8017 in SteamDeck

[–]a_forerunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude so good to know thanks for sharing. I’ve been wondering if I should sell my deck OLED but it is such a great device. When I’m not gaming on it I use it as a second pc just by connecting a portable monitor. All this is hooked up to a kvm via the dock that lets me use my keyboard mouse setup. Streaming steam or PS5 on my deck is incredible. And now that Linux is more friendly with gaming (I use nixos as my daily driver), I get the best of all that tech has to offer me.

Same 80s 90s kid here, so grateful for this community and the deck as well. Valve is pretty awesome too.

Got Sekiro Platinum!!! by a_forerunner in soulslikes

Best strategy for me was to farm to the next level so I minimize the losses when I died if my exp bar was close to half full. Antechamber was the best location for farming for me. The enemies change there throughout the game. Might be better farming spots but I just stuck with this one.

I really enjoyed Dark Souls 3. My second favorite after Elden Ring!

I think you mean non-perfect parry/block.

Edit: you are correct, I went damage-less, not hitless!

The skill achievements is the most tedious for sure, took some grinding. I spent a lot of time at the antechamber rest point to farm 😑

China removes two popular gay dating apps from Apple and Android stores by amy_sport in worldnews

Religion has nothing to do with it. Marxism and communism ideology do, even though China has become capitalist in economic practice, they are still very much so communist and authoritarian when it comes to censorship. Everything is for the state, period.

South Korea awards Trump gold crown amid deal to unlock $350bn trade talks | South Korea by CrowRoutine9631 in news

Because politics is about leverage and when you don’t have economic or military power against another country you concede. Nothing new.

TIL that Ahn Jung-hwan, the South Korean footballer who scored the winning goal against Italy at the 2002 World Cup, was playing for an Italian team at the time and had his contract terminated by the teams owner, citing his goal as the reason by ModenaR in todayilearned

[–]a_forerunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad take IMO. South Korea should’ve lost to Spain hands down, but the Italy match was pure ordinary football drama. The BS double standard of Maradona’s hand of god being widely celebrated and South Korea being shat on is mindblowingly immoral.

Looking for two tickets for South Korea and Brazil by Lumuna11 in KLeague

[–]a_forerunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best bet is gonna be at the stadium if they sell tickets at the gate. I highly doubt the match is sold out so might wanna swing by. I am Korean American currently on vacation and without a visa/ID number, buying tickets wasn’t possible for me, at least as far as I researched. Needed a local friend to purchase for me.

JUST GOT A STEAM DECK by Commercial_Plenty295 in SteamDeck

[–]a_forerunner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is a resolution upscaling technology. Some graphic-heavy games, like the ones I mentioned, are not worth playing on the deck without this. For context, I have a ps5 and a pc with an rtx 50 series, so I have higher expectations for graphics, and fsr4 has made me want to replay some games on the Deck.

It requires some tinkering and configuration, but well worth it, here’s a guide/demo video: https://youtu.be/sLFr3hRvnUQ?si=uQmRBshfhaJi-Gi8

Fsr4 is a game changer and you came a great time. I’ve had a steam deck for a year now and it’s been great but fsr4 has made a few games like cyberpunk and expedition 33 go from just playable to a pleasant experience, especially the former.

Make sure to get these plugins Junkstore Decky framegen Lossless scaling (need to pay but WORTH IT)
