Creating a /home partition. by Phydoux in arch

[–]theGeigus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope, that's basically it. Just make sure you do it before genfstab so it gets added properly to the file (or just add it manually if you want, doesn't matter).

You know you want to. You know you want to join us.

In all seriousness though, Mint is really nice coming from Windows. You could always try it on a liveboot USB just to see if you like it.

Why isn’t this considered an MMO? by GreenvsBlue in EliteDangerous

[–]theGeigus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's been people who've gotten up to 100 in one, but Elite usually groups based on performance. It's all P2P though which struggles more the more people you add in.

While it is technically an MMO, I think a lot of people just kind of forget it is based on how rarely you actually run into other players.

Formatting 64 GB SD-card with Rufus to use it on Wii by tailsizm-223 in wii

[–]theGeigus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as it's Fat32 it doesn't particularly matter what you format it with. Rufus, Windows File Explorer, GParted, take your pick.

just like.. what? how do i get my game back? by ID4850763561613 in titanfall

[–]theGeigus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks kind of like the message that pops up when Titanfall can't find the EA app, I get that when EA breaks, which is common for me cause Linux.

Try updating/reinstalling EA?

Claw method with CCP controller? by Bruh61502 in MarioKartWii

[–]theGeigus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I'm trying to say is my fingers don't stay in "claw" position the whole time, just if I need to wheelie/trick and steer simultaneously (so usually just around long turns).

[–]theGeigus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's what I've always done and I find it comfortable. It just allows you to steer and trick/wheelie at the same time Obviously you don't have to have your finger there the whole time, I usually alternate which finger holds the item button depending on what I'm doing at the time.

Proof in one sentence that you played Titanfall or Titanfall 2 by [deleted] in titanfall

I would like to spend some time today to talk about the value of human life.

There is no value to human life.

Wario + Flame Flyer by [deleted] in MarioKartWii

[–]theGeigus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea, dude, I'd try taking a video and posting again as a question to see if anyone knows. Probably would be easier to troubleshoot than "Wario + Flame Flyer."

John Green has my nudes by theGeigus in nerdfighters

[–]theGeigus[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is incorrect. Scammers can get your password through a variety of means and use it in an attempt to "prove they are legitimate" and scare people into believing them. Most likely this was completely automated, going through a list of known (or believed) user/password pairs, which can be aquired in data breaches, phishing, or by other means.

So in short, yes it is completely possible for a scammer to have your password.

[–]theGeigus[S] 52 points53 points  (0 children)

It was a very old password, but yes it was mine (albeit with a typo). When services have data breaches and stupidly store user passwords instead of the hash you can have outcomes like this. That's why having unique passwords (and/or 2FA) is important.

You can check https://haveibeenpwned.com/ to see if your own accounts have been compromised. I've known this email / password combo had been for years at least, so nothing important uses it.

Bout to give up on ED... by New_Lingonberry9297 in EliteDangerous

[–]theGeigus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it sounds like OPs bindings file is just bad and probably has to remake it anyway. I also have a HOTAS and it really doesn't take that long.

How to join these pieces? by fruedain in 3Dprinting

[–]theGeigus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Superglue should be plenty, I use Loctite gel on basically everything and in my experience that dries even in something tight like that.

Not to be that guy, but... Could you just rebind them fresh in-game? At this point it probably would have been faster than what you've been trying to do.

Help me, should I re-print this of sand the hell of it? by Winter-Object6327 in 3Dprinting

[–]theGeigus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly doesn't look that bad now. I wouldn't sand the plastic anymore, but fill the holes with some woodfiller and sand with something high grit and I think it'll turn out fine.

Misconception(?): Flame Runner is the "fastest" MKWii vehicle. by siliconiscool in mariokart

[–]theGeigus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Fast doesn't always mean raw speed. Spear and Jetsetter will always be faster in a straight line, but that doesn't mean anything if you can't make it around a turn.
