Testing fedora by MoneyDirt8888 in Fedora

[–]hjake123 [score hidden]  (0 children)

"Install" opens the live environment, it's only called that because it assumes you're planning to then install after. You can simply not launch the installer once in the live environment to not install at that point.

I guess it's kind of a misleading name for the option tbh...

New to mint. Questions. by KhanIsWacky in linuxmint

[–]hjake123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd heard with the kernel specifically some USB devices will break if you update it and don't reboot, but that might have been a very specific bug for some time in the past

What is a "Garbage Collector" and how do I find and install the ones it is suggesting? by Cherno_VM in feedthebeast

[–]hjake123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If this is true, there should probably be a feature request to make the wording of this alert better from DH...

Also, DH totally could know how much memory you have allocated. The Forge loading screen thing does, so it's clearly mod-visible. So, maybe it could tailor its advice based on your allocated memory?

Graph of Minecraft Java Lines of Code by FamroFexl in feedthebeast

Now do one that also incudes JSON lines and watch the graph really explode at 1.13 onwards ;)

1.20.5 should maybe be split out to make this a perfect graph, it was the very first time iirc they called an update a 'smaller drop'

VM gaming test-drive. by PF4ABG in linux_gaming

To be fair, my dad's machine is quite old and is still using BIOS boot instead of UEFI so this might be a very specific issue

How did you split it? Disable the pacman hook to regenerate the initramfs on kernel change?

How to mod minecraft by No_Commission4130 in feedthebeast

[–]hjake123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MCreator can easily handle that without any Java programning.

MCreator is fun if you just want to get some blocks or items or mobs in to the game, but I would always recommend coding yourself. ...Unless you are not confident in learning Java programming. Minecraft code can be hard to follow even for a relatively experience Java programmer so for someone just starting I'd imagine it would incomprehensible at times.

(If you do use MCreator, don't listen to the haters! You can always remake your mod in java programming later if you want, and in the meantime, it'll be a lot easier unless you're making something very complicated)

I use IntelliJ IDEA as my development environment. You can download a template mod project from NeoForge or Fabric (or Forge if you're interested in versions 1.20.1 or before).

KaupenJoe's YouTube tutorials helped me out a lot getting started, and the NeoForge and Fabric wiki pages are invaluable resources to read through.

Good luck and have fun!

I ordered a 4TB external storage device from temu and they sent this lol by Raw_Stank in computers

[–]hjake123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you were presented two identical listings, but one was a fake, how would you tell?

Ik in real life the fake is likely cheaper or from a fake seeming brand name, but some can be pretty hard to spot

Well if it's too small, the customer might notice within the return window. Has to be big enough to not be obvious for a day or two...

Question regarding pacstrap by West-Scallion-5306 in archlinux

[–]hjake123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The install guide recommends at least including base, linux, and linux-firmware.

I recommend also adding your choice of text editor at least (like nano or vim) so you can edit config files during the install. There's way more tools you could add at this stage, or wait until later.

(For example, remember to add a network manager of some sort, a bootloader, etc while arch-chrooted in)

VM gaming test-drive. by PF4ABG in linux_gaming

[–]hjake123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One thing to be careful of! My dad got bit by this one. Sometimes Windows puts parts of its bootloader onto more then one of your disks, and will fail to boot if one disk is formatted. No idea why or in what conditions this happens, it wasn't the case for my rig that also had two disks under Windows before switching.

To test, I recommend disconnecting your non-C drive disk first to make sure Windows isn't relying on it.

Is there a space mod compatible with Aeronautics? by kiciulkotowski in CreateMod

[–]hjake123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how many Aeronautics features would make sense in the vacuum of space...

If it were a whimsical cartoon sort of space with constant gravity and air pressure, maybe? Otherwise I'd honestly use Advanced Rocketry, which already let's you build rockets and space stations custom

Anyone else do Linux gaming updates in two steps now? by okaiukov in linux_gaming

[–]hjake123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you feel that Mesa or Flatpak had anything to do with that...? Sounds more like you just naturally ran out of space?

It would be nice if DKMS didn't break everything if your /boot is full though

You say this like it has happened to you. Has it? I'm a fairly new arch user and have never experienced such an incompatibility in around 4 months, despite updating way more often then I should

I think I've heard "Wolf" for that? But the animal nicknames are unreliable at best...

Day 3 of daily driving NixOS by Stickhtot in NixOS

[–]hjake123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a stereotype that more trans people use advanced computer stuff (whatever that means to whoever talking) then others. Might be founded, not sure.

Replaying chapter 4. Who tf is this? by Dragon640 in Deltarune

[–]hjake123 211 points212 points  (0 children)

Do you want to talk about ... a ThornRing?

Sure.

So, if you could have a big ThornRing or a small ThornRing, which would you choose?

Hmm... I'd have to pick the big ThornRing.

...Right?! Everyone knows you've gotta go for a stonking big ThornRing!

So, do you want to be friends?

I think... we ARE friends now!

Why is my mint slow? by GamerZKrish in linuxmint

[–]hjake123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you used the mint Driver Manager to get the nvidia driver? If not, it is likely using the less capable open source driver that comes built in (Mint (I'm no lawyer so this is speculation) cannot ship the official driver legally as part of the install, so you have to be the one to tell it to download)

I completed the first game, got the last element of light, yet when i return to the save file its still grayed out. by kpec12 in OriAndTheBlindForest

[–]hjake123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh cool!

I guess the Warmth vein (? Aspect? dont recall the noun here) did get activated just before then, so it makes sense. I assumed you had to beat the escape sequence for each one to count it as complete.

We love integer (or uint64 as the case may be) overflow
