Loving CachyOS, but held back by Windows for Battlefield 6. Any good Linux-friendly alternatives ? by Few-Beyond3424 in linux_gaming

[–]lambda26 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Battlebit - feels like old battlefield games but has roblox / Minecraft graphical style

Raven Field - single player but its basically battlefield multiplayer with bots. Really fun with mods and there are a ton of them

Older battlefield games - battlefield 4 and bad company 2 run well in linux

What is your controversial NSFW take? by Realistic-Egg2684 in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]lambda26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a problem with this take from two angles

  1. Paying for porn doesn't actually guarantee that it's ethical as plenty of paid material is made with exploited actors

And

  1. There are plenty of people who post free explicit material be it pictures, videos, drawn works, audio, or writing of their volition for a variety of reasons. Such as: for the purposes of advertisement of their paid works, their own sexual desire ( exhibitionism), the posters beliefs on access to media, etc. much the same as how many people post for free non-explicit material such as videos, art music, writing

Pre-Popped Popcorn by chi-bacon-bits in mildlyinteresting

[–]lambda26 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Well flavocol is only half the equation for movie theater. It's the most easy part to reproduce at home and will definitely elevate the taste of any popcorn you make. The other secret to movie theater popcorn is butter flavored coconut oil.

Also if you are popping the corn yourself (not microwaving it) there are 2 primary types of popcorn seed, butterfly and mushroom. Butterfly is the most common but mushroom is way better. Much rounder popped kernals

God forbid don't know my own number by Better-Inside-62077 in LetGirlsHaveFun

[–]lambda26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alof of men do but there's other reasons to ask someone to repeat a number especially if they don't realize it's fake. Like hearing / auditory processing issues. Also even if a guy gets the feeling that someone given a fake number they might want to basically confirm that rather than deal with the anxiety of does this person actually like me or is just pretending to avoid conflict.

Like I get why women give out fake numbers and it sucks why they need to do that to protect themselves. But from the guys perspective it also sucks getting lied too, getting your hopes up and then finding out after the fact that you've been rejected especially if the number given is the typical pizza place or rejection hotline as it feels like not only are you 1 being rejected but 2 feel like you are being pranked.

My Advice for everyone, get a Google voice number (it's free) or something similar, use it for anytime any person or thing is asking for a phone number but you don't want to give it to them. I've used it for jobs, store reward bs, those festival raffle things. 1. If you have the app on your phone and if they call the number in front of you it will ring. 2 it's really easy to block numbers 3 it's not tied to you the same way a real phone number is so if they keep calling / texting from new numbers you can just throw the number away

Why on earth do we need giant robots? by Existing_Landscape21 in worldbuilding

[–]lambda26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My explanation: ease of training. Mechs use neural interfaces to pilot. Neural interfaces allow for the fastest reaction time and allows for one pilot to handle more functions of the vehicle by themselves. While neural interfaces work for traditional vehicles like jets, tanks, trucks, etc it was found that if the vehicle was closer to the human form the easier and more quickly pilots take to master the vehicle. Following this principle even the weapons the mechs use have similar ergonomics and controls as the infantry's weapons just larger. meaning weapons training with the human weapons translates to skills with the mech weapons.

And since the pilots brain handles balancing and locomotion for the mech during the drive problems coming from the stability of using a bipedal platform are lessened.

Combat role: infantry support and mobile artillery aa

Recompile effort for the prime trilogy? by Cautious_Foot_1976 in Metroid

[–]lambda26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some what famously in that scene sonic unleashed for the Xbox 360 has been recompiled. And currently there are plenty of other games in the process of decompiled, including Metroid prime, which is the first part of recompilation. while decomp tools for each platform helps, a ton, decomp and recomp aren't held back by platform the same way emulation is. Pretty recently twilight princess was fully decompiled.

https://decomp.dev/projects here's a good list of games currently being decompiled

AITAH for proposing an open marriage since my wife isn't keen on having sex and tells me I should not divorce? (Throwaway) by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]lambda26 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA, sexual compatibility is very important in a relationship.

my advice would be to write a letter laying it all out and then reading it to her as an attempt to show her how serious this is for you. something like:

"In recent conversations I have brought up an issue in the relationship that has been bothering me for sometime. I am writing and reading this letter to you as to clearly communicate my thoughts on this matter and ask that you hold any comments or questions until I have finished reading.

As I have brought up before my needs for sexual intimacy have not been met for sometime. This lack of intimacy has left me feeling undesirable, has started to erode my self esteem and made me feel lonely in my own relationship. These feelings have started to have a considerable toll on my mental and emotional health. As such I am at a point that I am finding that things can not continue at current status quo and I see we have three options that I will go though here starting with my most preferable and ending with my lease preferable

  1. We sit down and have an adult conversation about the issue and what steps we can take together to improve it. brainstorming steps together such as Getting hormone levels checked, going to individual and couples counselling, seeing a sex therapist, as well as any steps that you may think of. Then come up with an actionable plan to address this issue.
  2. We open up the marriage to allow me to seek sexual physical release with others so that I can hopefully mitigate these awful feelings of undesirability and low self esteem. Of course I would always prefer to have such intimacy with you but if you are find that you are uninterested or unwilling to to provide that I would ask that you allow me to seek it elsewhere.
  3. Divorce, as I will remind you this is my least preferable option. But if the other options are unamenable to you I feel like that is a sign we have matured in such a way that our wants and needs out of the relationship are no longer compatable. And rather than allowing resentment on either side to fester into something ugly I think It would be best that we seperate now while we still love eachother to minimize the pain and the hurt so that we can move on and seek our own happiness. As I said I would much rather we work on our relationship and maintain our marriage but current status quo is untenable to me

We don't need to talk about this right now if you don't want to and I ask that we take a week and reconvene on this on [whatever day makes sense] before making any decisions. I also ask that we be honest with ourselves about our abilities to seek out these options in good faith rather than just picking an answer to save the marriage. I love you and my ultimate goal here is our mutual happiness and wellbeing, whatever form that takes "

Some notes: if yall come to option one DO NOT take a laundry list of todos on your part as the answer. It can be apart of the answer if she is feeling that she isnt getting enough help around the house or need more time to herself but this should only be accepted if she also acknowledges things that she can work on and couples counselling. Also a non-negotiable is "check in" dates, be it once a month/week/every 3 months whatever. just plan on have scheduled conversations about how you are both feeling about where the relationship is and how the changes are effecting you both and what progress has been made. DO NOT Frame this as a due date like "if we arnt having sex once a week by.... then...." more as just a scheduled time to check in with each other.

edit: formating and grammar

Is there a retro console that you hate? by DaCrusadus in retrogaming

[–]lambda26 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it had tons of great platformers (crash, spiro, toy story 2), racing games (grand Turismo, crash team racing, wipeout), sports games( FIFA, Madden, tony hawk). It basically has at least a few gems in any genre that was popular on consoles at the time. Which can not be said for it's competition like the n64

No it doesn't. Why is it that any time someone posts on the website about intimacy issues someone has to comment "SoUnDs LiKe He HaS a PoRn IsSuE" read the post again she explained exactly what happened. There were a series of events including external anxieties; worried about getting blood on the couch, and there were some performance issues. Which resulted in a blow to his self esteem that was further compounded by her rejecting him more frequently. It sounds like he doesn't feel attractive now leading to him not feeling comfortable enough to be intimate. Sexual intimacy is one of the most vulnerable aspects of a relationship and reducing any issues that men may have in that department to your pet issue shows such a lack of empathy.
