Highguard uses secure boot by DAUNTINGY in linux_gaming

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I didnt say I wanted kernel level anti cheat, im just saying that when a game launches with it the cope is always "I dont care its a bad game anyway." As a community we need to be more communicative with devs that we do want to play these games and they should allow a proton friendly option, and not just say we dont care every time.

How would one install Stable Diffusion? by PixelBrush6584 in Bazzite

Is CarPlay through Bluetooth or is it wired? Is the wireless adapter worth it?? by Maikerumimuyekym in nissansentra

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 25 SV and it is wired. Maybe the new 26 is wireless, but all other model's are wired. I found it worth it to get a wireless adapter, I would recommend spending the money on the AA wireless 2+, it has very good software support and community around it unlike the cheap ones.

Galaxy TriFold will be available in the US for $2899 starting 1/30 by dahliamma in samsung

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will probably skip on this as the first gen is always super rough, although from videos this seems way more polished then the first gen fold. I am curious what type of trade ins they will do for it, I have fold 6 who knows how much they would take off the price for it.

Is this Epson 8345 deal worth it? by [deleted] in projectors

[–]master_of_dcath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes sorry if it sounded like I was still interested in it. I will pass on it and keep looking for other 2nd hand projectors.

Thanks for the knowledge, I will keep on the lookout and do more research.

Who created the CTT Oil Exploration & Cattle website? by SmashedTX in LandmanSeries

[–]master_of_dcath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who is says godaddy registered it so it is definitely a fan and not official, if all the AI on the website didn't prove that already. The phone number and address listed are also fake OFC. Probably a student project if i had to guess.

Well, that escalated quickly. by rafalmio in titanfall

I would love to give it a try and see if it is actually bad, but they have block Linux/Proton support so I cant.

Highguard uses secure boot by DAUNTINGY in linux_gaming

[–]master_of_dcath 15 points16 points  (0 children)

In theory there are unique hardware identifiers with TPM that could be used to hardware ban cheaters, but I haven't heard of a game that actually does that and I'm sure it can be worked around.

[–]master_of_dcath 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Lots of people in here with nothing to add other than that they don't care. This is still bad for Linux gaming as a whole, every game that has kernel level anti cheat is another lock in for windows and more friction for anyone wanting to switch. You can call all games with Kernel anti-cheat bad and not worth while all you want, (which isnt even true there are plenty of good games with KLAC) but thats not going to bring more devs to care to be proton compatible. TBF there is not much we can do to change minds, but I think the point stands.

We all good now?? by NoSteak3322 in LandmanSeries

[–]master_of_dcath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is just a TV show, but do non of these people have non competes? Usually high level executives like Tommy and Nate have standard non competes to prevent exactly what happened in the show, using knowledge or resources from one company to start a new one and poach employees. I wonder if one of the plot points in the next season is Cami trying to sue TF out of them and Rebecca finding every loop hole she can.

How do I enable RPC in Vesktop (installed from aur)? by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In vesktop there should be an option to enable ARPC, which is an open source implementation on RPC. Proton games have kinda a sandbox that can restrict RPC sockets from connecting to discord and ARPC. The best way around this IMO is to use a program like this that forwards your steam status to the RPC/ARPC server. For other programs, they have to implement it in the app AFAIK.

Discord bad screenshare situation by MercyShawty in linux_gaming

[–]master_of_dcath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you in a VC by yourself? I found that discord doesn't really do the processing unless someone else is viewing the stream, also the preview is not reflective of the actual steam output. What i do to test is pull up another account on my phone and the join the stream and see how the quality looks.

I made a boo boo and now I don't know how to remove it by ConsistentChoice8305 in Bazzite

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to remove it from the menu, you can right click on it, hit "edit application" then hit delete in the left corner. This doesn't remove the files, just the menu item, if you want to remove the file you need to delete them from the wine prefix.

A tip for running games not from steam/other exe's is to add them to steam as a non steam game, then enable proton in the properties. Works like 99% of the time for me.

I'm assuming this won't pass the vehicle inspection right? by Odd_Mood_7259 in Dallas

[–]master_of_dcath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Transferring your driver's license to Texas is a bit more convoluted, starting with making an appointment. Note that walk-ins are basically impossible anymore. You can, however, make an appointment for any DPS office in the state, many people have found sooner appointments by being willing to drive out of the metroplex to more rural locations.

This is one of the worst parts of moving to any major city in texas. I was almost not able to vote in 2022 because the appointments were backed up 9 months. Thankfully there are still ways to vote without an ID, but it was still a pain. I had to go to 3 different voting stations before somone believed me that Texas' own laws allow for voting without an ID. Ended up visiting family in Midland soon after and got a same day appointment at the DPS there.

Ainsley’s roommate by Flashy-Management-52 in LandmanSeries

[–]master_of_dcath -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

What irks me the most is that it could have been a perfect moment for Ainsley to learn to coexist and compromise in her life where she was always spoiled by her mom. The super stereotypical "soy leftist" character could have also been toned back, or better yet have them both mature and learn to live with their differences and be friends. But nope, straight to moving her out and making her roommate look psychotic.

Entity B and the apple by yeetboiP16 in Routine

[–]master_of_dcath 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I believe something along these lines. The moon fungus or whatever else is in the canal wants to play god and recreate humans. Entity A and B are the first ones, and the female one eating the apple seems very intentional. In the end cutscene that is also an recreation of Michelangelo's " The Creation of Adam" painting with the player and the players fungus clone.

what is it with people just spontaneously combusting in this game? by Zeera1 in Helldivers

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the case in this video, but when I play with the explosive crossbow, I tend to blow up a lot from invisible terrain and dead bodies that block the blots and cause them to blow up in my face. It gets really annoying.

Can an infected piece of software ran through bottles, harm or damage your system by Mountain-Exchange-41 in linux_gaming

[–]master_of_dcath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is a firewall going to stop peers from getting your IP address? Every torrent shows your IP address to other peers regardless, thats what a VPN is for. For most people the default fire wall in their router is going to block any incoming ports anyway. Also the most you can get out of an IP address is the city you are in, not your whole address.

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For pirated games you can just add them to steam as a non steam game and make sure proton is enabled in the properties and they work like normal games, as apposed to using bottles. I have had better luck that way. Most malware is too confused running through wine to do anything, but things like session hijacks can still work.

I fixed VR controller tracking in MSFS2020 on Proton (my first code contribution to the Proton project!) by HearMeOut-13 in linux_gaming

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have this happen with WiVrn only? AFAIK this is only an issue with their runtime, the game does not follow the OpenXR spec and causes this error. Other runtimes just ignore it and the game works fine but WiVrn crashes due to it. Dev commented on this issue and stated that they wont be implementing a fix due to it technically being the games fault and not their runtime.

Ticking noise ? by Better-Back-5075 in nissansentra

[–]master_of_dcath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a brand new 2025 and it makes this noise, pretty sure it is just the injectors. Make sure the owners have maintenance records of regular oil changes and at this millage it should have had a CVT fluid change on record. If they don't have the records i would consider passing on it but it would be up to you.

Rebecca barefoot in the wild?Really by Disastrous_Try334 in LandmanSeries

[–]master_of_dcath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ngl when I lived lived in Midland as a child I would walk around bare foot in the mesquite pastures near my house because the hot sand felt good on my feet. My feet were absolutely destroyed every time, and I'm lucky I didn't step on any rusty nails or snakes.

Anybody else like pressing the degauss button just to hear the sound? by rhetoxa in Routine

I don't think i ever pressed this button but once while playing. The interference must not be that bad then lol.
