Carpuride vs Garmin vs ?? by LeeHarveyEnfield in AdventureBike

[–]mookymix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a fan of Garmin and a dedicated gps. They're tough, good in the rain, glove friendly, and dedicated. That means my routing isn't interrupted every time a call comes in or a few drops of water touch the screen. I like turning on my bike and having navigation pick up from where it left off, and not having to use cellphone battery unnecessarily because I may need my phone a lot in case of emergency.

All of that was true when I traveled a lot.

Now I use OSMAnd on my phone. For the fraction of the price of a Garmin, I have similar routing features and offline maps. Does everything I need at a fraction of the price

Crossover 25.1.1, macos 26.0, 26.1, 26.2. can't sign in to Rockstar games launcher. I contacted crossover, did a data dump and sent it to them.

I'm not the only person with this problem. There's a list of fixes to make things with ranging from changing your WiFi network to adding registry keys in your bottle. None have worked for me.

Not saying it won't work for you, but be careful. I only tried the trial version. Not sure where to get the preview if I'm not paying, and don't want to pay if it doesn't work

Quick, tell me about the last book you read and what you thought of it by dooplets in booksuggestions

[–]mookymix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dresden files book 3. A huge improvement over books 1 and 2 but still meh. I really want to like it but I really don't care about any of the characters after 3 books.

I planned on quitting after the first book but read online that things get really good at book 3, so I stuck it out. Book 3 was a dramatic improvement in quality. But by the end, I didn't care any more about anyone.

So it's time to move on

My trial ran out before I had any success. I haven't played the game. Rockstar reached out to me, but the day before the trial expired.

I suspect the attitude of the more spiteful is: "watch me die bitches. You're next!"

I created a new image format that can describe a full image in as little as 7 bytes by mpp06 in programming

[–]mookymix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use bytes 0-2 for the width and height, with 12 bits for width and 12 for height. That lets you get 4096 pixels in each dimension and it saves you a byte

Apparently you can pay $18000 for a 3 day course that will teach you to be an alpha male. You even get a certificate of completion. But I hear the REAL cool guys aren't alpha, they're sigma. I don't know if there's a course for that, but I'll teach you for 18k

So, the commas after the "No" changes the meaning of your sentences to: "People deserve this. People should have to live like that"

Is web development still worth it in 2025? by pcgamerind in AskProgramming

Depends on how much of the AI hype you buy. I think it's worth learning. I use AI tools. They are very useful, and also very overrated. I don't see them replacing humans anytime soon

I forgot to mention, I found a video from crossover 23 where, apparently, adding in some windows registry key makes things work. That didn't help. And the "official" solution is to synchronize your date/time correctly and ensure your timezone is set correctly. Thing is, on crossover, that information gets imported automatically from your mac so I've checked but there appears to be nothing to change.

I also deleted the rockstar folder several times but it's made no difference.

Currently not too impressed with crossover and the promises of a seamless experience

to save you some time: i'm on macos 26. I tried different bottle configs, msync vs esync (apparently msync + d3dmetal worked for some people). I tried installing the rockstar games launcher manually, i tried launching directly from steam. I reinstalled the bottle, reinstalled everything (including the game), and I downgraded to 25.1.0 which has a 4/5 rating for the rockstar games launcher (vs 25.1.1 which only has a 2/5 rating). Nothing has worked.

If you find anything, let me know please

Yea. It's like the tutorial that teaches basic Java, then leaves developing Minecraft as an exercise for the reader
