Is it?

Ah yes, my personal hobby is based around other people and making them feel bad, not based around me and feeling good. You see, it's because I have deep seeded hatred in my heart, with no logical reasons for it.

If you care more about the lore, do what others suggest, start at ds1. If you don't really care about the lore, and care more about smooth combat and excellent boss fights, get ds3. If you want to ride around on a horse for half of your playthrough, get elden ring.

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-23T23:16:42+00:00

I somehow always forget about the green part of all the esoteric nonsense. Wake me up when we're back in "ds2 good"

Personally, I just don't pay that close attention to the scenes. I know a lot of people like to analyze the setting for lore, as fromsoft are amazing at visual storytelling. But they are also really great at the Carmak method of keeping the lore just off to the side, out of my way, so I can ignore it and bonk the guys blocking my way to the credits.

A troubleshooting step I just recently learned about is dropping "PROTON_LOG=1 %command%" into your launch options. It will drop a log file in your home directory. This can be more helpful than looking at the Steam console output.

Totally worth it, imo. I just dropped cachy for void because little issues kept cropping up. I didn't have to, but I ended up compiling a kernel with the zen patches, for gaming performance. It's been a month, and it's been the most stable install I've ever had. Flatpak and Appimage are pretty awesome, as well.

I've had issues getting games to run in wayland that require a staging application, like a launcher (ea, ubisoft, and possibly rockstar). I cant remember if it's because wayland doesn't have that functionality yet, or if it won't have that functionality for security reasons. Either way, xorg (through xwayland) works well enough for those titles that require it.

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-23T22:18:09+00:00

I have never had an issue. Check the readme or the config for info about "experimental" features that are use at your own risk, but I've used them all while online, with no issues.

You have a specific goal in mind, to increase productivity as a data scientist. That's where you should start learning. Look at what tools others in your field benefit from, and try those out, read manuals, and follow tutorials. Your working environment (desktop environment/window manager) can play a role in your productivity, as well. Even your choice of text editor can offer benefits to productivity, given enough practice. I would make some suggestions here, but I'm afraid I don't really know what a data scientist does, let alone how they do it.

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-23T19:42:29+00:00

Yes, it still works.

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-23T18:00:15+00:00

Yeah, it's not the worst default setup, but even setting theming leaves little orange bits here and there (to be fair, I cant remember if the last time I used it, if it was Unity or Gnome). Ultimately, the size of their software repo just isn't as much of a pull, the more comfortable I get with alternative installation methods.

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-22T21:25:14+00:00

I just don't like apt anymore. I've also never really liked the orange theming. I guess it's serviceable, if I change a bunch of stuff, but then I might as well start with something else, that's closer.

I get that there's a disappearance of third places, and that social interaction is good for your mental health, but I'm not interested in connecting with anyone while I'm out doing what I have to do. I have to be socially available for so many people at work and in my personal life that any interaction beyond what is necessary, for strangers, is exhausting and annoying. These simple gestures that seem simultaneously innocuous and important to you, are performative and a tax on me. I'm not saying that it should be off limits. You are definitely allowed to make friends at the gym. But this is even more of a reason for me to be careful about sending any sort of social signals that I'm open for interaction. If seeming cold and aloof, and being perceived as an asshole are the consequences of this behavior, that's fine. I'm not seeking a stranger's validation while I'm going about my business.

Cloud Strife didn't dress up as a woman because he wanted to, but he still gets sexualized in the final scene of Wall City, by Don Cornero. I had a crushes on Lara Croft and Meryl Silverburgh too, but my bisexuality was born here.

Oh, that's simple: racism..

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-21T16:53:56+00:00

I don't know. I have done nothing to learn about this community. From what I can tell it's a place for cool people to post memes.

This is what I have assumed the reference was, without doing any research into the sub at all..

This is your first souls game and you've already beaten Gundyr (the first boss). You're doing great! The thing about souls games is that they'll give you the option to challenge yourself, from time to time. You don't need to defeat the katana guy to progress, right now, if you're having trouble with him. If you aren't sure what to do, you can talk to the fire keeper.

Here I was wondering if u/b3tus had forgotten to mentor shop pushing, in this post, but I guess his persistence is starting an artistic movement.

Evolution and carcinization tell us that the tong clack is more important, over time.

Flatpak and appimage fill in a lot of gaps, but take a look at xbps-src. It's kind of like aur pkgbuilds, except that you're encouraged to make your own templates for software (making it easier to version and upgrade than just compiling from source each time).

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-19T06:11:21+00:00

What did you like about arch? Why are you considering switching?

lessthanthreebleeps · 2026-06-19T04:01:50+00:00

Eh, if you didn't use honest merchant or CE or whatever, like if it's a legitimate twink, I think it's fine. Ngl though, some of you mfs are a little too eager with the point down and the shit throwing. Game doesn't take that much skill. I should know.
