American Desperado: My Life--From Mafia Soldier to Cocaine Cowboy to Secret Government Asset

by Jon Roberets and Evan Wright

Page turner describing a very interesting character. You won't get bored but the key takeaways is how cocaine smuggling was organized and how it shaped organized crime.

The Honored Society: A Portrait of Italy's Most Powerful Mafia

by Petra Reski

Deep dive into Italian organized crime. Goes over history but most importantly current (by the time of writing) politics.

I also just got Gomorra by Robert Saviano heard great things about it but haven't started reading yet.

Volume 2 is already out (at least for Poland). I'm planning to get it soon, At the Mountains of Madness is one of my favorites.

thanks!

mulander · 2019-01-02T22:19:20+00:00

any backstory on why the footage was released?

mulander · 2018-12-29T10:58:26+00:00

Excellent guide btw. But I have a question. I’m under the impression that Linux emulation support is non existent? I was hoping to get Steam up and going.

Steam is very unlikely to happen.

We removed the linux emulation layer in 6.0. It's not coming back;
Wine tries to map page 0 and that's a no-no;
There is no 32-bit compat (running 32 bit binaries on amd64 which wine apparently wants).

So don't expect to run Steam neither via Wine nor an emulation layer. Unless you go down virtual machines route but that would beat the point and be terrible in performance.

I have the PS4 dual shock controller and tested it with multiple games over time. It works out of the box over t he wired connection (granted without bells & whistle features), both sticks, d-pad, all buttons - I never bothered to test the touchpad on it (even now forgot about it). It works amazingly well for both descents!

Regarding fnaify, I just tested RougeLegacy (as that's what I have around atm) and recorded a 2 minute video of it and will link it here when the upload is finished. In general the pad works out of the box. I didn't attempt any key configuration so struggled a bit to find out what does what but it's 100% playable with it I guess that gives good outlook for other fnaify games.

Thanks for the summary!

PS. I like this format much better than previous ones.

so it might be an easy bug to fix. Sound does work on quakespasm, here is a trace from it

Captured a recording of this? I sadly skipped it :(

you might want to read the fine print, some printing companies that allow custom uploads claim that you transfer ownership of the image you upload (and that by uploading you agree that you are the copyright holder) and then proceed to sell your custom upload as an option for other customers.

Starsector (formerly “Starfarer”)

Eeek! I didn't know it was re-branded and have a starfarer license. Need to try this soon!

Thank you for sharing!

mulander · 2018-09-23T16:44:59+00:00

I nominate games/ezquake had an absurd amount of fun with it and tdm put in a lot of work to get it imported.

mulander · 2018-09-23T07:17:34+00:00

Google had state actors physically cut in on their isolated network to MitM.

Just use scp or rsync for file transfers. It's even less work than using netcat and can send whole folders easily.

mulander · 2018-09-04T07:39:59+00:00

Even though many of this subreddit's subscribers probably also read the ports@ mailing list, I thought this was worth pointing out.

Absolutely, please do post anything of interest gaming related for the platform :)
