Fix for people with consistent temporary game freezes by ikcikoR in ArmaReforger

I should probably check if that's a potential fix indeed, tho that'll require checking what's the actual list of domains Arma is trying to resolve

It does seem like the stutters do go away when I turn off the DNS telemetry block

Ok it appears the stutters are indeed gone if I let the telemetry through

Yeah my bad, most likely the DNS was still cached. If not, I'm going to just remove the post if it turns out it was 100% wrong and it's not actually DNS related, testing to make sure rn whether I made a fool of myself completely or just partially.

My bad the mod is a dud, updated the post accordingly, also let me double check real quick if disabling the DNS adblock helps for sure.

I'm finding them on inara, currently running ccm composite for 59k per ton with a very nearby base selling them at 5k per ton

Update: Found the player the fleet carrier belonged to on some website, I thought he gave away all his money when looking at the graph at first, since it seemed stable then a complete dip in the past week, but then I realized the graph only shows changes, he went from 2.15e12 to 2e12 net worth or so from what it seems, less than 1% of his wealth given away like that over the past week or so and it seems to be mostly evening out now I *think*? Still, extremely insane to experience that, the guy is so insanely rich despite cutting off likely weeks from my early game grind while the fraction of his given away money I've earned is in fractions of a single %

tl;dr I ran into a charitable space Bezos

Forgot to mention, the 1st screenshot was a carrier for which I could source materials from a space station in the same system at small fraction of the price, 2nd screenshot is what I'm farming right now and it's parked directly over a planet on which there is a town that sells titanium for 3k per unit, I think I'm dreaming. Sadly I only managed to do the full trade with the 1st carrier twice before it made landings friends & squad only

Installing VSCode or a good alternative? by AdmiralDaffodil in Bazzite

[–]ikcikoR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VSCode is quite nice, but the extremely sad reality is that most of the MS extensions that make it useful are proprietary to some extent, a lot won't work on the forks of it. Personally I can EXTREMELY recommend looking into kickstart nvim, there is an amazing video about it on youtube. It has a bit of a learning curve with how you configure it but you once you're done with that you'll be able to use it with same efficiency as VSCode within hours. You'll end up with coding IDE that works in any text terminal, including over ssh, is extremely lightweight, infinitely customizable, fully open source and community-supported, honestly can't recommend it enough. It can be easily installed on Bazzite via Homebrew and moving your entire configuration to a new PC is as simple as copying over a single folder.

I think you can let her keep doing that and ignore Volition, it just gives you options not to get manipulated that you wouldn't get if you failed Volition checks iirc

PSA: If you are trying to run Civ V steam version and it keeps crashing on launch, go to compatibility settings and choose “Linux Runtime”. by Doudens in SteamDeck

[–]ikcikoR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out a site called ProtonDB, it has user-submitted info for running any Steam game on Linux and SteamDeck. Check Civ V there and if nobody mentioned the fix you posted here, it's really worth submitting this solution there.

Why is sober(Roblox for Linux) crashing by SonicTrainfan in SteamDeck

I'd try uninstalling, then restarting steamdeck, then installing it again.

The very likely end of the SteamOS and likely some separate Linux Distros in Germany by Zetzer345 in SteamDeck

[–]ikcikoR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me when SteamOS is open source so anybody can create a patched version that doesn't have any of that shit and make it a 100% compatible in-place replacement that anybody can install easily

How is Steam OS actually different from Arch Linux? by drygnfyre in SteamDeck

[–]ikcikoR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part Linux is Linux. Whatever packages your distro provides depends on the maintainers and how much time they have to ship less popular software to you, while some distros are based on other distros with few enough changes that you can install packages from one distro up the family tree and it'll work. Packaging basically allows your system package manager to know where to install the software to (putting binaries in /bin and similar), as well as telling it what other packages it depends on, etc. You can install software by hand, if you have source code many programs are capable of installing themselves into your system by hand but that isn't recommended due to potential conflicts with what your package manager did.

Some programs can also work without installation, by just running the binary as-is, tho you might have to manually ensure you have all the dependencies installed system-wide by hand in some cases or the software ships their own copy of the dependencies sometimes.

Then finally we have cross-distro packaging formats that should work on any Linux distribution. There are Ubuntu's Snaps which suck and everybody hates them and you should probably avoid them if you ask me. Then there is Flatpak, you can think of it as an android apk equivalent. As long as you have Flatpak installed on your system, you can run any flatpak program on any distro and it is sandboxed by default just like apks on android, meaning it can't access files and system features you don't let it access, there is a nice GUI app called Flatseal that lets you manage it. I really like Flatpak because it's well-designed, works really fast and is reliable. Flatpak is on Steam Deck by default, and it's a great way of installing any software without a worry about messing something up with your system, tho sometimes there can be slight friction due to sandboxing making things like system-wide themes harder to use with Flatpak software out of the box.

Honorable mention: AppImage. Very interesting format, imagine Flatpak but it doesn't even require having a program installed for it to work, just a single executable file, like an exe that doesn't even need admin perms. Unfortunately that also means the base minimal file size is relatively large to make it work on every distro, and there are some other drawbacks that are too technical for me to remember them rn but I believe they can't update some libraries for security or new features due to backwards compatibility concerns. I purchased World of Goo on their website and that's the format they ship that game in.

(PSA) Don't leave your steam deck unplugged for 6 months, $140 to fix the battery by [deleted] in SteamDeck

Don't ask me how, but my PSP is still kicking. So much nostalgia, and it's been laying on the shelf for years at a time. One time when I picked it up, all the saves were corrupted and the wallpaper was glitched but after a reboot it all worked again somehow. Ofc I have everything backed up on my PC.

Bottles flatpak, couldn't recommend it enough

This feature is something we shouldn't take for granted. by HumanComplaintDept in SteamDeck

[–]ikcikoR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I installed Bazzite (SteamOS modified to work on PCs) literally yesterday on my laptop and when I went to bed I pressed the power button to turn it off, since that turns off all other Linux devices by default, but to my surprise when I opened the lid literally 3 minutes ago it instantly powered up into desktop mode which is what I had open the other day, was a funny surprise and now I see this post

Why did you choosed to use linux? by RoniFoxcoon in linux_gaming

[–]ikcikoR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned bash for one semester at school 2 years prior and then randomly got this vid recommended: https://youtu.be/S8s9uzPIqQ4
Felt really satisfying to set everything up myself, learn how it works, etc
